New to CPA

tmthirty · 07-19-2011, 10:50 PM

Alright, so me being the soon-to-be college attendee, I decided to come to the net to try and make some cash without doing too much work.
Needless to say, I've gone through about 20 different methods and wasted over $100 on crap eBooks.

But, as I like to say, "live and learn".
So here I am now trying to do a little CPA and Sharecash through YouTube.

What I've done is set up a Facebook page using FBMaxed (which is fricken sexy btw), made a decent YouTube video, spread both via SocialAdr and gotten views to the video with Viewet. The Facebook page and video both link back to my site which contains the link to a Sharecash download.

So far I've made a little over $2 in about 18 hours. Not bad?
If you haven't guessed already, I'm using YouTube Bully and YouTube Virtuoso to help me get going.

Now, my question here is: How is what I'm doing now with Sharecash different than doing it with CPA? Or is there no difference? I'm assuming I'll need people to fill out surveys for this to work correctly either way.

Additionally, with Sharecash I'm using a website, but I don't really need to. I could link to the download in my YouTube description. Could the same be done with CPA? Or do am I a bit confused as to what CPA is?

Thank you to anyone who took the time to read all of that. Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

make sure to publish email submits, they usually convert very well, if you need help in finding some programs to market, let me know and i can help.

You would have a tough time converting CPA offers if you post the link directly in your YT videos...Plus I dont think many AM's are going to give you an account at their network if you tell how you want to push their offers...

CPA does not just revolve around surveys...have a look at offervault.com for the type of offers available at the larger networks. This will give you more of a feel of what you can promote via CPA...you will soon notice that..YES...you would need a website, or a a decent landing page at least to promote CPA offers...

Not only that, but you would need a website to sign up with the networks in the first place. CPA is a good way to go though, because generally they convert at much higher rates than the traditional PPS programs

I suggest you sign up to a few CPA networks and look at a few offers. Find an offer that you want to promote whether its a muscle supplement, beauty cream, or just an email submit. I would get something with a $20-50 payout. Build a web page around the offer. And write some quality articles and SEO the site for a month or two. If you can get the page to rank in the top of google than you could be doing 1-10 conversions a day at $20-50 a pop.

PM me if you have any questions

Sometimes when you sign up at a network, their manager would give you some guildance on how to improve your business, such Dmediapower.

The method works like a charm but your need to consider some points:

1 - I'd go for email/zip offers. They work better than surveys

2 - Keep doing it and never give up. Believe me, if you jump to another method you will lose everything you have learnt.

3 - Never put the direct link in the description. The ugly affiliate link does not look professional. So use a website instead of directlinking.

4 - Always test every thing but always change one parameter in your campaign to be able to track the changes.

5 - Always use sub-id's. This helps a lot in terms of tracking and optimizing the campaign.

I hope I could give you some useful tips. Good luck with your campaign.
