I've met a lot of affiliate marketers as well that can't handle the money. They're like athletes who are paid millions of dollars but still end-up broke in the end because they do not know the value of saving and preparing for the rainy days.
One of the best things that worked for me when increasing conversion rates is to remove all the distractions that's on the page.
To do this, you first need to define what that specific page's goal is (whether it's to have the visitors purchase, share, sign-up, etc...). It'll work remarkably better if you only have 1 goal per page.
From there, you need to look for the things that will distract your visitors from doing that specific goal. It could be the images, an even better content, even the social sharing buttons, etc...
