Is there any article directories available that can be used to send traffic directly to cpa affiliate link instead of sending them on our website first and than on cpa affiliate link?

    Most of them don't allow direct linking. Why not just purchase a generic domain name and use a redirect.

      This is my thoughts exactly.. or even setup a small page on that domain name and rank for both seo and articles

    Is this something CPA affiliates allow? I mean, can I purchase a domain and just redirect it right to the CPA e-mail or zip submit offer?

      I use redirects all the time and have never had a problem.

        Interesting. I just assumed they considered this direct linking. Going to change my strategy.

          Don't think Ezine allows it though. Articlesbase and other directories do though.

            They've gone really strict.
            Recently I had a couple of strange messages.
            "The link is not providing more information on the article topic"
            "We do not allow affiliate links in the signature box."
            Now, it was a redirect.

            You have to know to play by their rules. I only send traffic to my main page now, they even rejected my own squeeze page on my domain.

          why do not you use free domain name as dot.tk, you have a domain name and I think its better to post that link instead of your affiliate link

          And they do. However, you can point the domain to your own site and them switch it to the affiliate link once your article gets approved. Since they don't review teh articles more than once you won't have problems.

            Ezine Articles does allow you to redirect using your own "top level" domain. It's simple to do and under a couple bucks if you buy a .info from GoDaddy.

    A url redirect is the best way to use articles for cpa offers. However, if you have a website already, you can use php redirect for your cpa links. this will increase your website ranking since you will be using just one domain for all your offers.

    Something like www.yourwebsite.com/ipad - for an ipad offer. you just upload a php file in that directory on your website that will handle the redirection. Lil bit technical anyway

        <?php

        header( 'Location: [Your destination page]' ) ;

        ?>

        Change [Your destination page] to point to the page that you want to you have to add the complete address e.g. "http...." .

          can you clear one more question? I have some basic idea about php. Now the question is that. Should I make a separate php file? If yes than where to send it? In my file manager folder? Is it related to masking?

            Depends what you are using to build your html or php sites. For simple tasks likte this, I like to use Bluevoda. All I have to do is publish as php instead of html and in page properties just add my redirect url/affiliate URL and bob's your uncle. No php or ftp knowledge whatsoever.

    The editors at EzineArticles have become so difficult that I've quit submitting articles there. What they permit and do not permit is pretty random, regardless of their stated policies.

    They do, in theory, allow you to send traffic to a "top level" domain which you may redirect to a CPA offer.

    If you own buy-my-smartphone.com, you may send traffic to it from an article at EZA and redirect it to an iphone offer. You may not, however, send that traffic to buy-my-smartphone.com/iphone.php. That is prohibited in their rules. You may only send traffic to a domain's home page.

    But as I mentioned earlier, they may randomly allow or disallow anything these days. I've given up and I'm posting elsewhere now.

    goarticles.com I don't think I've seen mentioned, and I believe they are still allowing direct affiliate links in their articles.

    I feel a redirect on your domain is the best option since it allows you to control the offer.. many a times the offer expires with the network.. in such case you can just change the offer in your redirect... if you do a direct linking you pretty much will lose the clicks.. (unless you do a redirect in your affiliate network.. like NB Ads)
