Why because when you go for higher gravity products, there is already huge competition so everywhere there would be reviews but low gravity means less competitive hence more chances to make sales.

I disagree. It depends on OPs niche, but 2-3% sounds rather good in my opinion.

@Sebastian Velandia Really. Check the thread https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/b...in-a-competitive-niche.1238996/#post-13294398 for example, they have 30-40% conversion rate. A great space to improve it.

Okey, Im experiencing some trouble with the deliverability of my emails, I see it is a common story, I tried to research all the tools out there and found https://www.sendinblue.com/ a lot of review sites gave it trust, and nice deliverability rates, however in my case it has been a total headache... I have tried it all, but in gmail all my campaigns and automated emails go to the spam folder... It is weird because my lists are opt-in
I found that some of the IPs sendinblue use are blacklisted in some lists, so I think that may be the issue with my deliverability, weird because all the reviews I read about this tool were outstanding about deliverability.
The only solution sendinblue offers to me is to purchase a dedicated IP which costs $150 USD, I don't want to buy things without being sure it will work so don't want to risk even more when the website is still pretty small and not generating enough revenue yet.
Any suggestions? I saw this thread about Push notifications instead of emailmarketing...

I will consider go back to the basics and send the visitors directly to the sales page in cold traffic.

Yes that is low. I usually get 40%-80% optin. Making money from a targeted list is a numbers game, bigger the list = more money. So if signups are the focus of your business model you need to optimise a lot more for signups.
Also while push notifications are nice, you dont control them, unless you build out your own system. Remember nobody can ever take your email list from you.

OMG 40%??
Thanks amazing, let me ask you, are you using an organic approach like me? or you just have a landing and sending paid traffic? By the way, which emailmarketing software do you recommend? sendinblue is just terrible imao

My model is target a specific niche and then:
Front end=
Paid traffic -> signup page -> autoresponder -> free trial/value offer -> paid upsell
I also do joint ventures to get traffic
Back end =
email more relevant offers
I use mailchimp for the initial front end signup. But for back end bulk sending a combination of my own servers and elastic email.

Hey what does "PBN" stand for? well I have not invested any effort for backlinks, all Im getting is naturally, I really don't want to create fake stuff, also don't want to pay for a link, I just want to focus on content quality. I want to build trust through content and that's what Im achieving.
I have seen my content has been shared in some forums and also it has performed very well on Pinterest and Tumblr, that's why I have been able to rank 9 keywords in the top 3 of SERPs, some of them are competed by the way.

UPDATE:
Well after digging into my deliverability issue I found that some of the shared IPs used by sendinblue service are blacklisted and that's why my emails are going to spam folders, due to this the stats of my emails are terrible, and sendinblue decided to cancel my account to "protect" their other customers... After showing them the evidence that the issue was indeed their fault (for using blacklisted IPs) they just never gave an explanation and just cancelled my account.
Well I lost a lot of time and effort integrating that service into my website and setting up all my emailmarketing strategy there.
Lesson learned.
I decided to remove the subscription popup in most of the banners I use and send the users directly to the sales page, I still have an exit intent popup and a button of subscribe at the top of the page I need to find another emailmarketing platform and integrate it asap.
Emailmarketing can be a total headache with the wrong providers...

Network? what do you mean? If you're talking about ad network, Im not using any ad network like adsense or similar I use affiliate marketing product from clickbank. If you mean the communities I have, I have communities on twitter, facebook, pinterest and tumblr
The most engaged are facebook and Pinterest by the way, but I work on all of them the same way.

UPDATE
I took the night to update all current posts of my website, I added extra info, added more paragraphs and images, basically I improved them all, I hope to go up some positions in SERPs after this. The goal is to have all my posts above 2000 words each.
Im still trying to find another provider of emailmarketing, I just don't want to waste my time integrating another platform if Im not sure it is the best.
Sendinblue support told me that I can keep use their service if I purchase a dedicated IP, I would like to ask to you, does a Dedicated IP fixes the issue of deliverability? Does it worth it?

After some research on email marketing platforms, I will try MailerLite, they have also free plan and you can also automate your emails for free.
I learned something new as well, the real issue with my emails is that I was using clickbank links into my emails which triggered spam filters, and Sendinblue saw this and blocked my account, so new lesson learned!
CLOAK YOUR AFFILIATE LINKS ALWAYS!
I cloak all my affiliate links however I forgot to use them in the emails I was sending so that's why I had poor deliverability!

UPDATE
I now have a new email provider, Im trying mailerLite which is working fine, I automated all my emails there and added the popup form, which took me some time to figure it out, due to I have a custom form so the integration consumed some time. But well Im happy, Im waiting to see how it develops.
So Right now I have banners redirecting directly to the sales page, and I have a subscribe button offering a free gift at the top of the page, also have the exit intent popup, looking to see how it performs.
I have had this set up like a week ago but I only could finish the set up of Mailer Lite today...
Im waiting to see how this performs, so far I haven't had any sale, which makes me wonder if this is really gonna work, I will give it a couple of weeks more to decide.
Due to this issue with the mailing I haven't had enough time to create more content, that's the next task for this week.
