CPA Marketing (Advice)

16 replies
Good evening Warriors,

I am at a standstill, I had my Adsense account disabled last week with no reason or pre warning given by Google. Income is at a complete stop currently. I do have a NeverBlue, RevenueAds, and CPALead account in good standing, but lack the specialized knowledge to promote CPA offers in a meaningful way. There is so much information online pointing me in many different direction, I need to focus my attention to effective and cost conscious methods. I am asking for specific advice and direction in starting out promoting CPA offers with the above mentioned networks. I greatly appreciate all of your help and assistance

Best regards,

xynight

    Have you got any idea why your adsense account was disabled?

      Not specifically, I wish I can have it back, I believe it was disabled for using LogiTraffic and AyuAds as traffic sources, but I have been using these traffic sources for over 9 months with no issue, then suddenly without warning, I received the account disabled email

    Hi! Unfortunately there are all different directions you can take and in truth, most directions you have heard about are profitable. The trick is picking a direction that fits your character and also sticking with a direction long enough to get good at it.

    If you are in desperate need for quick cash, then you may have to "bum it" while trying to grow a more sustainable business...the other tricky part is that most networks wont pay new affiliates quickly.

    Wish I could give you personally more specific advice, but without knowing you, thats really hard to do. Like I said though, most "directions" work!

    Thanks Kenster, I'm not in a terrible financial bind but am a bit strapped. I understand that most directions will work to an extent, I would like to find a singular path and focus my energy completely. Unfortunately, I don't have a large budget for PPC/PPV but I own SENuke / Market Samurai among other software

    Well, the first thing i wold do if I were you would be to put CPA banners on the sites previously use for adsense. If the sites aren't in a specific niche that you can find some good offers for just go with some email submits for freebies.

      Thats a good point, try and monetize your current real estate with some other monetization method and then look to build out other campaigns


      May not be as bad as you thought if it turns out that you are making more from CPA then you were from adsense This happens a lot

    I think you will make more money with CPA leads that Adsense anyway!

    Just make sure to use right offers not just those with highest payout and best EPC.

    But for the future you should change strategy of finding new niches (adsense promoting in different as cpa offers). It depends if you will be promoting email/zip/phone submits (free stuff mainly), or targeted products (free trials and risk free offers are hot lately).

    Best luck

    I'd highly suggest talking with a few networks affiliate managers. See who you gel with and who you think can guide you down the path of success. Depending on what direction you want to go emailing, media buying ( social, ppc, display ), bh stuff. Would really make a difference on who you wanted to work with. AKMG is really good if you want to be a mailer, they get that business. Ads4Dough is really good at working with media buyers. EWA/CPA Tank/ACP are all good at working with blackhat pubs.

    So decide what path you'd like to go down and work with a network that's going to be facilitate getting you to your goals.

      I know how it feels to be whipped, gagged and thrown in the river by Goggle. I worked so hard and some low life mother****** started 'happy clicking' on my other site day and night and then Google punished me. And only Goggle benefits by retaining our money. They probably make millions of dollars per year using this soul destroying strategy.

      Life is so unfair man.

        It happens all the time in this industry, that's why its important to create multiple streams of revenue, and multiple campaigns within a single stream of revenue...its about diversity.

        At the end of the day, Google hates when advertisers dont provide a good user experience for their searchers...unfortunately many affiliate marketers fall in this category. There are really two sides to the coin...chances are that most campaigns that Google slaps or destroys were breaking rules in the first place (not always).


        But I know exactly what you mean about working so hard to build something and it being so easy for some entity to ship out the rug from under you and a click of a button

    As you said, you have been using Adsense for a long time . So , I think you already have a site and you have been using the traffic from the two sites you mentioned earlier.

    Your first option should be to talk with your affiliate managers and discuss if the traffic sources you have been using are allowed. If yes, then you have to substitute Adsense with CPA offers and test it on your site.

    After you make some money, you can re-invest your money in some Paid traffic sources such as PPV. PPC, Media buys, or others.

    Hope it helps .

    couldn't agrre more with Kenster

    Choose one and focus
    I probably would not do ppc as it costs
    but here is the answer that will make it work for you

    Do this and you will succeed!!!!!!!

    Choose the method you most favour and make sure you do something to make it work everyday!!!!

    so build a squeeze page
    add in offer
    promote
    add in twitter
    add in youtube
    add in facebook
    build it up

    the problem is there are so many ways and they all make money but only a bit to start with
    once you are going with a bit we tend to think another way is faster so jump around
    stick with one method and give it 3-6 months doing at least one thing per day!!

    cheers
    just my 2p

    Absolutely.

    Focus on the basics first and find shortcuts later. Software and new methods are 99% of the time distractions and not helpful (plus they cost money) for new marketers.

    Worry about making that first $20 a day and then worry about growing it by reinvesting.

    You can try applying to Chikita and replacing your adsense blocks with those!
