About 500 beta testers signed up. Very few converted because I gave them all a free pass for one year.
Here's the paypal links I used to get things up and running...
a) Did you start selling paid accounts from day 1. Or was there a paid beta period? How many of your paid beta users converted?
b) For payments I see you use PayPal. Can you point to some resources to get the subscription based system with PayPal up and running?
