Default Using Twitter to drive traffic to CPA offers

Anybody had any success driving converting traffic to CPA offers using Twitter? If so, what types of CPA offers are you having luck with on Twitter?

Send people to your blog and then to the offers and TOS should be OK.

I was reading about a new software that allows you to capitalize on a Guru's list of followers on Twitter called...

an example would be like when you have an ebay store template...when people visit your site and see live auctions once they click over to ebay and they are not a member.....you can get paid an affiliate sign up fee...I believe like $25 from ebay partner network.

Lot's of clever adsense and affiliate marketers create entire sites using nothing but "News" feeds in a particular niche.

Twitter is a very powerful tool to make friends fast. But the one thing you don't want to do is spam people with whatever you are doing. Make friends first and share what you do later.

I don't agree you send traffic to any cpa offer using Twitter. If you want to do that send traffic to your blog.

the best is to use twitter traffic to build your list. Later promote your CPA offer to that list.

Their TOS is pretty straightforward. The only thing that even comes close is:

8. You must not create or submit unwanted email to any Twitter members ("Spam").

So if you create a Twitter account and put your offer in your profile link I don't see how that's a violation of anything. Perhaps not an effective way to use Twitter, but certainly not a TOS violation.

Nothing to see here, move along...

As Twitter reaches unprecedented popularity, it's become commonplace to see hundreds of spam followers and spam messages everyday.

I've run multiple CPA campaigns via Twitter, using both free and paid traffic, and I can tell you with utter confidence: IT DOES NOT WORK.

This has been further confirmed by my affiliate manager at one of the largest CPA Networks, who told me the same thing - Direct-to-Twitter CPA marketing never produces conversions for their network.

Either send them to your blog first, or better yet, send them to a squeeze page where they get a free (targeted) gift in exchange for their e-mail. Build that list and then you can sell them later.

But again, I don't care what anyone tells you - Direct-to-CPA does not work on Twitter.

In my experience, conversions are so low its almost not even worth it.. People will tend to ignore your every post. If you are wanting to use twitter your best bet will be to advertise something on your blog, at most once every 2 days or maybe once every 15 tweets..

Twitter should be like someone said earlier, a list-building tool, or blog visitor tool.. that's it

A lot of people on here have some really good points, but I thought I would give thoughts from another perspective. So for the most part (as a general rule) Twitter traffic isn't very effective, or high converting for CPA offers. There are a few exceptions and strategies though.

I know some twitter marketers work more on gathering huge lists of followers first (over 200,000) then using these followers in ways such as

1. Monetizing them through ads (*Bruce Lee Quote* to fitness offer)
2. Moving them around to other twitter accounts (Don't forget to add @exampleaccount for..)

One example is I've seen people make "themed" accounts such as funny lines, jokes, or inspirational quotes. They start automating 24 tweets a day (1 per hour) and keep a ratio of 1 ad to 15-20 quality tweets.

Once you have a several accounts and a system for maintaining them, you can work on monetization.

You'd have to be "super" creative to make it work these days. Even so, there are much better alteratives. Like MTM-John said, it's like ad-central for spammers.

I've never been able to monetize on twitter traffic. Yes, you can get a decent amount of traffic, but it will be very low converting

Twitter was good but its very difficult to get target consumer to convert them into customer. i have tired so many times i rarely get target customer for CPA. you have to work very hard to get good CPA customer.
