Hey yall.
Just wanted to tell you that affiliate marketing is all about taking action.
Yesterday I setup a simple wp blog
Put on some usefull articles
About 20 different related cpa offers.
Posted 10 videos on youtube.
Today I already made $5 with this new campaign.

So all I can suggest is to take action and you can succeed.

    Good job! I wish you success in capitalizing on that. Make sure to find a way to capture the emails of the people coming from YouTube. The reason you're able to make money with these CPA offers is because the companies who use these strategies know that building their list is the most important thing they can do.

    You can use $1 of that $5 to start a trial at AWeber. You can do it!

    The old tried and true method.

    This is what I used to make my first dollar online, YEARS ago!

    Except I didn't even set up a blog, I just put the link directly in the YT description and still made $30 that week. Looking back though, I would have done a lot differently.

    Congratulations and keep it going! Scale up. I don't know if you've read Kenster's "rags2riches" guide, but he practically beats it into your head that CPA is a big number game. You make $5 per day with 10 youtube videos, put 10 youtube videos up per day, you'll make an extra $5 per day, every day, as long as you keep putting youtube videos up. Now, I know it doesn't always work like this, but scaling up is key, and it really is a number game.

    congratulations job well done

    you're going to eventually find out that most on these forums actually take no action at all and just spend their time socializing lol.

    that's not to say they don't know IM in theory so my suggestion is always spend your time taking action and less on socializing.

    Excellent!!! That's awesome! I get a lot of traffic from YouTube and I wouldn't doubt that some of it has lead to increased bookmarks sales.

    Now if 'just the right person' would watch the video about my bookmarks site being for sale ...

      Nope
      The blog basically has reviews of the cpa offers and a banner and link to it
      I have about 20 different similar cpa offers.

      -

      Today i Put up 20 more videos, traffic on the previous ones are growing and today I already made $32 with this campaign

      Looks like the videos are going a bit viral and the traffic to the offers are growing every day.

    Congrats on the sales. One question please. How is traffic on day two or three .. or do you need to constantly feed new vids?

    Edit .. you answered my question as I was posting.

    the more video you post the more traffic there will be, because all the videos get constant traffic every day, so if i post 20 videos a day, at the end of the month I will end up with 600 videos. if I just get 10 views a day with each one, its 6k targeted traffic.

      Could you mind sharing a youtube video which you made? Just very curious to know how you can make 20 videos in one day.

        I'm a little curious about this myself. Did you create the videos or did you hire someone to create them? How long were the videos on average?

    Michael,

    May I ask, how many views did each video get on average?

    Did you do any ranking of the videos?

    Thanks,

    That's a great and motivating story. YouTube is always a good traffic source... Well done!

    It looks like you've found some consistency, which can be very difficult in IM.

    Before you go any further though, you might want to think about distributing your vids over multiple accounts in case youtube comes along and zaps your little operation.

    Another thing to consider is capturing email addresses and developing some back end marketing.
