Typical CPA Marketing to Paid Survey Users . . . .

5 replies
As I see posts here and on other sites railing Paid Surveys as a huge waste of time and that they only pay .40 - .50 per survey "IF" you qualify . . . . it makes me think of all of the CPA offers out there that pay $1-$3 . . . .

What is the best way to tap the obvious demand for simple easy "paid survey" style "actions" through incentivized CPA?

I'd pay someone .50 to fill out a form that I get paid $2 on as long as I could duplicate and scale that over time.

Is this what these so called "GPT Sites" (try and) do? Get a bunch of CPA groups that allow inventivized promotions wrap them up together and then drive traffic and have the traffic fill out offers for a smaller amount?

Why do you not see more of this . . . ??
Not a lot of good incentivized CPA offers?
CPA groups don't pay out fast enough or they tend to scrub enough actions that you can't pay everyone who "thinks" they completed an action?
Hard to develop a reliable group of low costs "form filers"?
Getting cut off from the decent CPA groups for lack of quality?
(These are the few issues I had come up with but didn't know if any or all of these were enough to make the idea NOT work in real life . . .)

    That is precisely what GPT Administrators do - buy a source, get an incentive account in a few CPA Networks, and then plaster hundreds of incentivized offers into the source. It does generate low quality leads however.

    Try setting up a virtual currency site. Where you pay your visitors in points they earn which then can then cash in for prizes. Very viral if done right. The visitor completes the surveys for points.

    This is all fraud just so you know. If you're going to commit fraud you could at least make it more profitable than a few hundred here and there.

      I am missing how the idea is necessarily fraudulent at its core.

      If I make a deal for someone to get paid .50 to fill out a survey and the survey supplier has agreed to allow me to use incentivized promotion and is willing to pay me $2.00 (understandably there are not too many CPA offers out there today that would fit this niche - but there are a few) - who am I defrauding?

      I could certainly see that you could spin this off into using incentivized promotional tactics on CPA offers that clearly specified that type of traffic was not an allowable form of promotion - but if they know the traffic is incentivized then they have to account for that in their payouts. They know the traffic is lower quality - but nevertheless you do get different leads you would have otherwise not gotten had you not offered some level of incentive.

      Have I missed a part of this that is way over the line?

      You never heard of cash incentive offers. This is legit. I like that some people think its fraud more money for those that know whats up.
