Need advice on monetizing a blog using CPA Offers

Hello,

I run a tech/science news website and I can top over 1,000 per day if I write about 10 articles as I have a large following on Twitter. I was doing good using Adsense but I was banned last month for alleged "invalid click activity". I have been searching ever sense for a viable alternative but no luck. I was looking around today and decided to try some CPA offers on the site. I am already approved for peerfly and they have some great simple email submit offers that appeal to my niche, free iphone for example.

You can checkout the website at frontsidebus.net

As you can see, I have already added a few banners on the website that link to my CPA offers but I was wondering if anyone had any tips for this type of monetizing for a news website.

Any and all help is appreciated.

    Hi I went to your site and saw 4 banner ads for the iphone. Has anyone clicked on the links yet? If so do you know which banner was clicked on the most?

    I would mix up the banners with different cpa offers. I might not be interested in a iphone but I might be interested in a ipad or macbook.

    So mix up your banner ads and see which ones get clicked on and which ones convert.

    Just my 2 cents

    No clicks so far but its only been a few hours with those specific ads ,and traffic is usually slow to the site this late on Sundays.

    That is a great point though, I found quite a few offers to other products but none of them had common ad sizes for some reason. The two offers that I included were the only two that had the ad sizes that I use. If it came down to it though I could photoshop the other ads to make them bigger and hope it doesn't effect the quality too much.

    There are many AdSense alternative my friend, yes I know that adsense is far more better than others, if you don't want to try pay per click ad networks then affiliate marketing is also fall under the category cpa. Join shareasale or cj then pick some good products according to your site topic.

    I know there are a lot of other ppc networks but none of them fit my needs. I'm already a member of cj but I figure its much easier to get visitors to complete a single action rather than make a purchase.

    EDIT: I actually found a ppc network that I like and will be going to if cpa marketing doesn't work out called lijit. I just figured I'd give cpa a try and see how it does.

      Hi, I'm new to CPA as well and have been wondering how you've been doing thus far?
      Cause I have a completely developed website as well that I'm thinking about monetizing using CPA offers instead of the usual AdSense
