Hi all

I am an owner of a country specific forum network branching into Automotive, Health & Fitness. They're busy forum networks with thousands of users.

Has anyone here harnessed the potential of CPA through community forums and if so would you please share your experiences and tips.

Thanks guys!

    Yeah, you can to banners or a "self media buy" haha but the toughest thing may be coming up with a good offer. I am guessing your country specific forum isnt US, Canada, Aus?

      It is Country Specific, yes. Australia to be specific.

      I joined up at ClickBank but it doesn't have anything good in terms of Automotive had a few OK things in the fitness section.

      Can you recommend any CPA Networks for Automotive/Fitness?
      I've had a look buy they're so many to check out would be helpful if someone could directed me in the right direction RE: CPA Networks if not it's OK I'll slowly check them all out.

      Yes I was thinking banners too, items which would appeal to my demographic.

      Thanks Kenster

        Okay, Australia you should be fine. There are plenty of CPA offers in the fitness/health niche. You can even go the traditional affiliate program route with both niches. p90X has a program for fitness.


        And automotive. Believe it or not but one of my first dollars EVER online was from a Tireracks affiliate promotion. I think it is used to be a 6% commission on an average order of $500 or something like that and there actually are a lot of buyers so the conversion rate was good.

        I have no idea if Tirerack is even in Australia, but it sure is bringing back memories. I remember jumping up and down when I had two conversion from Tirerack in one day...was like $75 or something like that haha.

          Kenster thanks so much for replying that's great info I'll get into research those networks now. Aussie's here are going like crazy buying parts and accessories (including tyres) from the US due to the strong Aussie dollar against the US and in part of the rip-off prices dealers charge here.

          I'll give the banner a go and update this thread for anyone who may search for similar.

          Thanks again!
