CPA offers only for US only, is this a disadvantage?

Hi all,

I'm signed up with Maxbounty, and to be honest I'm not by any means an expert in CPA, but I do have a question: since most CPA offers are limited to a certain country (in this case, it would be the US) does this hurt you if you have a lot of traffic coming from other countries?

Granted, I am located in the US and the majority (roughly 15-20%) of my traffic is coming from the US, but the bigger chunk of traffic is coming from various Asian and European countries. Would it be a better choice to switch to PPC since you get paid per click instead?

In short, if you have a lot of international traffic from many countries, will CPA be less effective?

Thanks!

    Do you mean monetize your website with AdSense instead of CPA offers?
    I'm not an expert but perhaps you can run a test to see which one give higher earnings?
    Since only 15-20% of your traffic coming from US, the rest of it will not convert well if you are promoting CPA offer that accept US traffic only.

    Maxbounty redirects non-us traffic in your case to other relevant offers so you still get a chance to earn from them.

    To answer the bolded question in your post, just because you have alot of INTL traffic, that does not mean that CPA wont work for you...all that means is you need to find an offer that accepts both your domestic traffic inside the US along with the INTL traffic..you may run into issues finding a relevant offer that can be run in all those countries but just because you have INTL traffic doesn't mean CPA wont work for you.

      Have a chat with your AM. They can give you the rundown on certain offers that will work for your country-specific traffic. You'd be surprised what is effective.
