i need a website to start getting accepted to cpa networks

now what i want to ask is. if i make a website. should it be a blog

It depends on what is your business? What are you going to promote? What kind of products? What are you going to write about?

what should it contain?

Same answer, see above.

where can i create this blog?


There are many resources to create a website. I personally like wordpress and use themeforest most of the times, because theme developers will help you if you encounter some issues. A theme costs 60 bucks.

But you could also start with a free theme. There are many good free themes out there...

If your business is ecommerce wordpress is still a viable option but would reccomend Magento if you are serious about it...

whare can i get the content?

You need to create it yourself. Content has to be unique. You can have a look at similar businesses and get ideas, but the content has to be unique. Don't copy/paste.

and how about landing pages, where can i put them, on my blog or in a separate hosting?


Have a look at optimizepress for landing pages. Really nice design and affordable.

Your blog should contain the product that you are offering.

Wordpress is a good site to write blogs. It has a variety of themes that you can use. It's a friendly website.

You could do research about the content of your blog. Be sure to familiarize yourself with the content of your writing.

You can create blog with:

1.http://wordpress.com
2.http://mycida.ning.com/
3.Soup - Publish, collect, share.
4.HubPages
5.Buzznet
6.Space Travel | The official space tourism site
7.IAMSPORT
8.http://blogger.com

CPA networks just want to know that you know what you are doing and they would like to avoid garbage leads dumped on their vendors.

If you said you would be implementing paid traffic and presented it like you knew how it works that may be fine.

I could have a blog on dating and get in the network and see offers for eCommerce and promote those instead or Grant money. That would be fine with them..

Spend more time in the CPA section CPAers are very generous without giving away their entire campaigns.

Even if you had only a starter website with very few pages..just make them pages that would convert traffic.

The network will not ask you to prove your past performance but at least want to see that your intentions are on the up and up.

And you know something...the current hosting I use I found right here on the forum its was a great deal with a coupon.

CPA network affiliate managers are here as well.

Several are warrior members so you have the inside track to get approved if you reach out to a couple of them.

It's not always easy to get into a CPA network, and I suggest being enrolled in some training program where your coach can refer you. Usually you need to use a referral code to get in.

I don't think you need a website to get into CPA networks to be honest. You just need to be honest with them about your strategy. I frankly am into like 50+ CPA networks out there and got into networks even without a website lol.

You can just put there www . bing . com and explain that you will be using Bing's PPC to promote the offers. Just be honest with how you are going to promote the offers and make sure you give quality leads.

1. You can either just purchase a new domain (apply a coupon and get it for $1) and host it on a cheap server. Put some theme and some random content.

2. This worked for me in few network. I wrote "google.com" in enter your site section and in other comments I wrote " I create different landing pages for my campaigns" and I got approved easily

I know pretty much everyone answered your original questions, but I also wanted to include that if a website/blog is not how you are/or plan on getting traffic, then not having a website is not a problem. Sometimes, when you're signing up for a CPA network, you can't submit your sign-up application unless you provide a URL - just write something like www. N/A .com. If, however, that will be your source of traffic, then that's another story and you'll have to start from scratch.

I don't agree with the advice to buy a domain and host it on a cheap server & throwing in some random things. I used to be in charge of pub approvals and you can clearly tell when this happens - it's even more confusing when someone does this and then says they'll be promoting our offers in an entirely different manner. Or they say they'll be using their blog and I know it was created 3 days ago and receives 0 traffic (site stats).

Unless you know for sure that they're not reaching out to you because you simply don't have a website, make sure you review how you're applying in the first place - more importantly, how you sell yourself. That's just my two cents anyway

what matters is if you have experience or not, young padavan! website isn't necessarily needed

Why not just start a blog about your making money online adventure?.
Just buy a domain and hosting and install wordpress

I'm new to the forum but I'm 3 years full time affiliate and part of some of the most well established networks in industry, and I have to say you dont really need a "website" or blog to be accepted.

You have to see this from networks point of view , they don't care if you are going to apply and not send leads , they dont care if you cant setup adwards campaign ( well they do to some point ) but their main concern is the quality of leads , they are afraid of fraud leads and thats the main focus on their screening process during interview.

I don't have "website" but I use paid traffic , the main page for the website says 404 , so once you are in your first network just drive some leads , then use this as a cornerstone so that your current AM can confirm the quality of your leads to your new network and it snowball from there , also try to be honest if you are newbie , just address their concerns and discuss your plan of getting leads with the network. I don't think I ever applied with wordpress or niche blog to any network and I'm in almost every respected network , except clickbooth they rejected me but because they weren't so happy about my traffic source and they are in general hard to get in. You can outsource a general niche blog on fiverr or something if you really feel you need a website.

First , You have to select a topic of your marketing . Then purchase domain and hosting to set up a website about your topic . Then you have to make landing pages for your website .
This way you should start . If you want i can help you to make your landing page . I am a web designer .

Thanks

Just talk to them and tell them that you're a newbie, etc...they just want to know if your traffic is legit or not...

First of all, create you website attractive and generate few traffic from top popular brands. After that you can apply for CPA campaign, that will talk with you and ask few questions and approve it.

Try joining Moreniche network, you don't need to have a website to get approved and start promoting their programs. However, that means you will need alternative targeted traffic sources (social media, email list, paid) if you want to start making money. Talking to an affiliate manager about your plans always helps

OP as long as you have a strategy planned in your mind and you be honest with your application, there is no way any CPA network out there will reject you. Agreed there are networks out there which are strict with their approval process but you can let them know that you plan to create a website for the campaigns that are bound to convert.
