Funny you mentioned this 'cause I just commented on this in your Review thread. One thing you don't do is show your SBI! sites and you say you own more than one. Showing proof that it has worked for you is key and I think the reason West and myself have been selling is we clearly show we are customers. Getting someone to fork over $300 for a web site is tough so you need mounds of credibility. Your About Me page is pretty good. It's not overly sales pitchy but if I'm a visitor and read that page, it does make me wonder if you really own it. Lots of general statements about how good SBI! is but no proof it works for you.

Back to your original question. It took me several months to get my first sale. I started out selling the ebooks and those led to a few sales. But when I bought SBI! and displayed my story is when sales went through the roof.

I know from talking to Ken that almost all the top SBI! affiliates own SBI!. Many of them do case studies to their readers about their own sites. Which makes sense because it helps build credibility when you can specifically say "Here's my story."
