Is it possible to make some money with CPA without investment?

I'm not looking for like $1000 a day. I'm hoping for like $1500 - $2000 per month for about 3 months with non-incentive offers. Is that possible? If so, how? I've been reading a lot on WF but I've no idea where to start out. (I don't want to buy traffic)

I'm really hoping to make about $4000 by the end of 2011 and I'm willing to work hard. I've been successful with some incentive offers but now I want to try non-incentive offers.

Some other questions:
  • How to make a landing page? Do I just make a website on wordpress then redirect my domain to it? Does it cost on Godaddy to redirect domain?

    Its possible but it wont be easy.

    First of all there are only a few realistic options here.

    1. You're going to have to promote a high dollar CPA offer.
    2. You're going to have to promote via the free methods.

    There are only 3 free methods.

    1) Offline -- Flyering cars, paying someone to dance in a costume with your URL on it, yard signs etc.

    2) Video -- Uploading mass video to Youtube/other platforms, manually since you don't want to spend money

    3) SEO -- You'd have to setup sites on free servers like Blogger, Weebly, and Squidoo and then post articles on ezinearticles/articlesbase to link to your sites and bring them up the ranks. Again you'd need a TON of sites/traffic because you wont be able to rank for anything high volume.

    So let's solve the mathematics first....

    Let's go for your lowball target of $1500 a month. Promoting a $30 CPA offer you are going to need 50 sales a month.

    That's 1.6 sales a day. So let's say two sales a day off free methods.

    If you are doing offline/flyers and your hit rate is 2% you'd need to print 2500 flyers if my math is right.

    If you are uploading Youtube videos and you're getting a 1% conversion rate then you'd need.... 5000 targeted video views (IF my math is right). But each video is probably only going to get say, 300 views. So you'd need to upload 16 videos and get targeted traffic to them.

    If you are doing SEO, then you'd have to do the math for the keywords you're targeting.

    But the point Im trying to make here is.. it is possible if you know the math, and your conversion rate is kind to you.

    I hope this helped.

    Yes, it is. However, it usually takes time. The free traffic generation strategies require time and effort and testing campaigns with SEO, video marketing, etc isn't as fast testing campaigns with PPC or PPV.

    IMO, if you're going to take the free route you should do 2 things:

    1. Set more long-term goals - do not work to make money in the next month or 2, but in the 6 - 12 months. If you do it, you will be getting consistent results in a few months from now. If you just focus on the short-term, you won't get the expected results and wil end up losing motivation.

    2. Capture leads - Focus on one specific niche and try to build lists. Instead of sending traffic directly to offers, send people to squeeze pages. By building mailing lists you will be creating a long-term stream of income that can help you have a more stable income.

    Thanks guys. I'm going to work with leads instead of sales though because I think sales would be harder in my opinion.

    Definitely possible. there are plenty of sources of free traffic such as youtube, offline, etc... i find ppc to be the fastest and most effective for me, but free traffic can definitely bring you a lot of money
