I was in a webinar a couple of days ago that Gauher Chaudry was running with a friend. Being a follower of Gauher, he answered many questions that the attendees were throwing at him including my own (I think I was a bit selfish asking questions every 30 seconds!) and I have just gone through it and edited it to just the useful questions. You may find out some good tips to help with your own CPA campaigns

-----------------------------------------

Q: Do I need a separate domain for each landing page. Give details please
A: No you can put multiple landing pages on one domain, and usually will... we'll cover it more in the webinar.

Q: Are taxes in Canada ridiculous?
A: From what Gauher tells me, they are COMPLETELY rediculous!

Q: Hey Gauher, if an offer says "No Coreg", does that mean I can NOT use it as a backend offer using TrafficRegenerator, especially within a daisy chain? Thanks!
A: No that's not coreg... it's basically just a fancy popup or series of popups

Q: Google talks about bridge page being bad -- can you explain what they mean by bridge pages?
A: A bridge page is a page that really only exists to steer the visitor to a specific place... pretty much any opt in page is an example, it exists really for one reason only - to capture the lead

Q: How do you find the "google quality score" for the content network?
A: you can't

Q: did you say red wood for the headline?
A: red tahoma font

Q: what if you are bidding on an odd keyword like "car insurance cheap"
A: you would need to make sure that if you are dynamically inserting it into the heading of the landing page that it makes sense.

Q: how do you spell the title font you mentioned?
A: Tahoma

Q: do you always strive to obtain a 10 QS on your profitable keywords? or will you settle for 8s and 9s
A: always try for the 10/10, but you need a CTR of about 10%+ to get that.

Q: In which order do you recommend split-testing elements? Do you start with the headline?
A: yes because it is responsible for 80% of the success of the page

Q: doesn't that end up with duplicate content?
A: that is a myth.. duplicate content rules is not to have dup content on the SAME domain

Q: Do you need your own website to link all of your landing pages to?
A: yes because you need to place your landing pages somewhere

Q: did you get that graphic from the ad network/merchant? (In regards to the CPA creative being used)
A: yup

Q: How many times do you test headline before you change something else, like picture or offer?
A: 5-6 different headlines

Q: The landing page you showed us earlier with the beauty makeover did you have further content below the image of the girl?
A: nope

Q: Do you split test 5-6 headline at once?
A: you don't... you test 2 at one time and improve

Q: will this all work for Organic listings? or should we Not use this for Organic traffic?
A: this is to please Google Adwords but will GET you free organic traffic from Yahoo and MSN

Q: hey gauher, when you talk about split testing ppc ad, can i take that as developing two separate ads and test which of the two perform best?
A: yes

Q: how do you add video?
A: embed the video on your landing page

Q: To test the Ad or the headline first?... that is the question
A: both at the same...

Q: and split testing landing pages, does that involve developing 2 landing pages and test both at the same time?
A: yes

Q: is a silo a bit like a subdirectory?
A: yes

A: for google adwords, yes

Q: how to share 1 domain/website for 2 landing page gauher?
A: place both landing page HTML files on the same domain

Q: duplicate content is more of a factor for SEO than for PPC? correct?
A: yes

A: put them into themes

Q: You are saying you can dynamically test different products, price offers, anything thru split testing?

That's the price if you want to join his CPA course, and to be honest after how much I learned through that one webinar - it is very tempting

Also, check out one of the questions that I asked (I deleted it out):
