Optimization for CPA ads

seth3000 · 29th Jun 2015, 09:14 AM

I'm interested in starting a new website, but I've always made my money on Adsense. I want to dive into making money with Native ads like Shareaholic and CPA affiliates. Can anyone tell me how to optimize my ad space to get a higher CTR?

My website that I use right now is Info You Should Know - Be Outside Your Thoughts. (please click on article to understand my ad layout.)

I feel like I should remove my 720 X 90 to bring the shareaholic ad up. I've used this layout for CPC forever now, but I don't know if this ad layout will work on a CPA affiliate.

I've also heard that there are ways to make your CPA affiliate look native so that all of the optin info is on your website, but linked to your affiliate account.

Any friendly advice is welcomed.

Bewbs!!

Bewbs get HIGH CTR!!

But ... I'd recommend focusing on conversion rates over click through rates ... just sayin'.

Make sure the CPA offer you choose properly aligns with your audience and ensure your ad aligns your audience with your CPA offer ... and ... you should easily make a few million dollars (JK) ... but, you'll at least be headed in the right direction.

If you're getting quality traffic then I'm sure you'll get better results through CPA than you do with AdSense with very little effort.

But I would change that header image... I thought I was about to read something on haircuts or barbers or something. It just completely threw me off. Then I was really blown away when I clicked on your fb and notice your about says it's mainly about home made recipes and DIY ideas.

I love DIY ideas but your header did not capture my attention at all and I would've clicked right off if it wasn't for me wanting to see your site because of this thread.

You won't know if you get better results until you try though so throw it out there and let us know what happens. If done properly you'll be very pleased with the results.

I've added a 720 X 90 ad below the content area on my articles. I'm getting clicks but no conversions. Any advice?
