[Indies] Downloads started vs downloads completed

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/[Indies] Downloads started vs downloads completed

Hello.

I noticed last week that visitors to my site were downloading products, but only around 30% of people who started downloads actually let them finish.

I put this down to the fact that my site didn't mention the download size anywhere. I remedied this a week or so ago and I've seen an increase in download-to-completion ratio (now around 50%) but that's still kinda low I think?

Why do people start downloading relatively small files then change their minds part way through?

What can I do to increase this?
