Are You Smart Enough To Answer This Question? I Need Help

selfmademillionaire · 12-10-2009, 01:32 PM

I have an idea. My idea is simple, however I am smart enough to ask for help and it's obvious that I do not know the answer however all the bright and talented stars on this forum might know. It's a bit technical at the same time. Here we go....

I've heard this over and over and over again and I want to know how can I build a "list" off of doing CPA.

My question is: "How do I incorporate a landing page that looks like the same offer that the person will be taken to once they enter either or (name and email address, or just email address)?" I know a little html to put a landing page together but how is it done?

I believe that AWEBER has a way of once someone opts into your list you can then "transfer" both name and email address or just email address to the success page, which will be in this case the CPA offer.

To all the bright and successful CPA marketers, I appreciate all responses and answers to help me solve my one problem so far. Thank you in advance.

Well I'm not smarter than anyone on this forum, but I AM smarter than a 5th grader. Here's what you do....

1. Make sure that your offer on your CPA network allows for "pre-pops" which means pre-poplation of data (email in this case).
2. Next, visit the landing page of your offer to see what it look like, and then you need to make your landing page visually similar
3. Where ever it makes sense on your landing page, you put in an email capture form. Here's the trick....you can generate this form from AWEBER (I'm sure other email systems do the same) and then simply paste their HTML into your landing page. ** As you're creating the form in AWeber, there's an option to "Pass Form Data" which means the data captured on the AWEBER form will then "pass" through the URL.

4. Next, you need to modify the CPA link to pass that data...here's how.

Your normal CPA link looks something like this:

FakeCPAoffer.com/index.asp?subid=whatever&em=passedemail@gmail.com

So let's look at this structure:

the "subid" is a way for you to track your traffic..you can put in keywords, traffic source like CPV/organic/etc.

the "em" variable in this case is the email that you captured in Aweber and passed to this offer landing page. Some CPA networks use "e", some "email", you just have to ask them.

When the page loads, the "passedemail@gmail.com" is pre-populated on the offer landing page which makes it one less step that separates you from your commission.

Hopefully that helps get you started in the right direction...let me know if you have questions

Jeff, Hey Thanks! I've been trying to figure that out for so long. Do you know if there is any coding that I would need to know or should it all be prepopulated in AWEBER? I spoke with my Account Manager today, but I don't think she understood me. She said they can do "host and post" where I host and capture the info and then send it off to the company. Has this worked for you at all?

Jeff Scott · 12-12-2009, 10:22 AM

No problem...I'll tell you EXACTLY how to do it...here you go:

In Aweber, go to the form builder, and get the raw HTML (not Javascript). Put that HTML into your landing page, and take note of the following parts of that <FORM> data that you might need to chage

-----------
<form method="post" action="http://www.aweber.com/scripts/addlead.pl">
....
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="http://www.yourdomain.com/redirect.php" id="redirect_cxxxx">
....
<input name="from" type="text" value="">
...
</form>
-----------

Ok, now here's the info on those two sections:

REDIRECT = In the redirect section, you're going to need to create a PHP page (see below for that). Your landing page will capture the email, pass it to the redirect, which automatically passes it to your offer landing page with the email prepopulated
NAME = Make sure to define the NAME of the input as "from" just as I did above.

Now that you have your landing page done, you have to create the following PHP file (make sure it's named the same as what you put in the REDIRECT from above)

--------------
<?php
$url = "http://www.lynxtrack.com/afclick.php?o=XXXXXXXXXXXp=XXXX&s=source&e=";
$email = $_GET["from"];
$link = $url . "" . $email;
header("Location: $link");
end;
?>
-------------

In the $URL section, that's where you put in your offer link. IMPORTANT, notice the "&e=" at the end of the URL string. This is different per CPA network (it's the variable they use for email). Some use "e", some "em", some "email". Make sure you know what that is and change it accordingly. Also, I have the "s=" which is the subid for your tracking. Again, that's different per network, change accordingly.

Here's what happening overall:

User goes to your landing pages and enters their email (it's entered into the "from" input field on your form, and then the user is redirected to the "redirect.php" page). That redirect script takes the email value and automatically sends them to your offer link with the email value prepopulated)

That should be it. Let me know if you have questions.

Jeff, Thanks again. Is there any way you could PM me? I have a couple of questions to ask if you don't mind. Leave your email, I still have to do some more postings before I can PM,
