I'm in a sticky personal situation where I need between $5,000-$8,000 in the next 2-3 months so I'm going all out.

I'm really unsure where to start and I'm really overwhelmed. I know you have to get accepted to CPA networks to start, and you should have a website or something.

Basically, I want to know how I can get started with just $25-$50 and start making bank as soon as possible. If anyone could share some amazing guides that would help me from a CPA noob point of view I'd be forever grateful.

In short..
- I have $25 to spare
- I want to start from scratch right now
- I know the basics, getting paid for a lead, getting into a CPA network, driving traffic to offers ect.
- I want to be making bank as soon as possible and I'm willing to put the work in.
- I would PREFER not to have to make any websites if possible.

So any guides or people who can help me get from point A (Being a complete newbie) to point B (Up and running, well on my way to earning $$) would mean the world!

Thanks guys!

When you say you have $25 to spare, do you mean your overall budget or your daily budget? If it's your overall budget I suggest using other methods to gain some money first before diving into CPA, $25 overall budget is way to low to get started

Thanks

Welp, I had a fighting chance at any consarned rate. I don't know how I lucked so well into a highly sought after doublekeyworded domain that likely would show up in search results of of pure google. Like the pureblooded Google USA! It was a keyworded domain with PR 3 and Just Dropped Yesterday and no one tried for it. I believe the traffic is bleeding in from the pureblooded animal, Google. You should look for Just dropped domains with keywords and have them related to some offer that is viable and buy the domain with your 25 and insert a Wordpress into it as main site and not subdirectory and set up a banner and a 2 large paragraph article with the banner placed in the middle of the paragraphs, make sure the paragraphs are long. Also make about 2 calls to action mixed in with the contextual part of the CPA.

How did you luck into a double keyworded domain with a PR3? I agree with you "luck" if you did it quite by accident. I've used RegisterCompass to do this for making backlinks. I think its cost was about $39 per month, but it makes easy work for finding what aged domain names are available.

This would make an interesting case study to see if this is a viable business model. Sounds like it might work. Share your results with us down the road.

Thanks

So basically what you're saying is I'll make a small website, with 2 articles and have them relating to what I want to sell. Have calls to action with the articles as the person is reading and then have the offer there?

How would that work for getting accepted into a CPA network, don't you have to show them that you have a website and traffic already?

There's nothing keeping you from building the site and confirming the traffic it's getting via Google Analytics before you get the CPA network on board. If this is the only website you have to show, I would make it a little nicer than what was described above. I personally don't think every CPA network cares about how much "free" traffic you can get. They probably do care how you're making their advertisers look and if they think you have enough experience to do the job within their rules.

Is it going to be entirely based on how well a website I have is? Can't you just drive traffic to the offer itself?

Thanks

In my experience you would need a lot more than that. Atleast $500 to start initially and learn something. Most of which will go to getting a tracker. Biggest investment you can make but also the most important one.

You need to decide how you want to obtain traffic. It will be hard from the starting line to achieve this with such little starting cash and no website however.

Good luck!

Thanks

You want to turn $25 into 5-8k in 2-3 months ... I think you need to stop reading get rich sales pages and start actually thinking more realistically.

As a newbie, you have test which offer is working to you. It will take time. To reach $5-8k, you have go for ppc/cpm, for that you have to invest more than $25.
I don't want to disappoint you. But this is the fact.

The mentality you have is not the right mentality for CPA, you have to be ready to grind and struggle to get your first profitable campaigns...thinking big numbers is helpful for inspiration but it's pretty unrealistic and will lead you astray and probably waste your money on worthless products/guides.

I never advise people to get into CPA marketing as a way to come up with quick cash or as a way to handle a desperate need of money, as the results are almost always negative.

Well everyone seems to have the idea I'll need more money. I've already got a website, is there any free trackers?

Either way, can someone show me a great guide that can explain everything for me?

I would suggest starting out with Free Traffic, since it is really the only thing you can afford.

Check out sources like Youtube, Forum Traffic, ect...

They can AMAZING, I've hit $150+ with them.

Thanks
