  • Hi Mike,

    Thanks for the info! Is it possible to drive traffic using articles? Will it work?
    What kind of video should we create?

      Thats a great guide , Mike!
      Thanks.
    • It is possible to drive traffic using articles , but you should write articles related to the CPA offer .

      The same thing is with videos,

      Mike
    • Absolutely! This is how I make money with CPA offers. The key thing is to write targeted articles directly related to the niche of your offer. Target keywords in the article so they rank in top position for the long tail keywords.

      The second tip is to write ALOT of articles.

      If you can write 3-5 articles all pointing to the same domain, which promotes the offer of your choice. By the end of a 2 week to 30 day period, you will have some great income from this offer. Then rinse and repeat just like anything else.

      If after a week of writing articles you are noticing very little response, views and clicks, then you need to tweak - or just drop the niche all together and move on to the next.

    • Articles are an excellent source for driving traffic. The most important thing is to keep the topic related to the product, and be sure to include useful content in the article as well.

      For instance, if you are promoting a free trial for a weight loss product, make sure your topic is relevant. i.e. - "3 Ways to Insure Maximum Weight Loss in the New Year"
  • Thanks for this guide - will have to look to start investing in CPC as well as PPC
  • landing page or direct linking?
    URL redirects?
    subid tracking?
    how are you planning to get your video to go viral?

    Your info seems good, I just feel that there a few steps missing - maybe it's just me but can you get it to work keeping it as basic as this?
    • [2] replies
    • Just create a video and make sure to to put your web address in your viral video and finally redirect the link to your offer .

      I hope this helps,

      Mike .

      Short URL address is preferable .

      I hope this helps,

      Mike .
  • I would like to add that social media traffic is another option for traffic generation .

    • Great guide Mike.

      Something to add maybe:

      Traffic >> Squeeze Page / Presell >> CPA Offer

      That way you are building a list and if you don't get a sale the first time you can always send similar offers to your list.

      This allows you to create an asset with your traffic especially if you are paying for it.

      Just a thought.

      Thanks for the guide.

  • Hi guys,

    I have only recently moved into CPA marketing so are still very "wet behind the ears"!

    I too have heard all the recent hype regarding The Arbitrage Conspiracy and was wondering whether anyone here has joined - and what their thoughts are? The cost is quite hefty so it would need to provide some worthy ROI..

    Also, I have had some trouble using Google adwords to promote CPA offers in that ads wont show due to 'low quality score'? Given that the ad text and keywords are closely tied, I am assuming that Google is frowning on the landing page?? Can anyone offer a suggestion

    • I read the ARBITRAGE CONSPIRACY report as well. The report talks about using the cpa affiliate url directly in Google Adwords and having the ppc engines love you for it? How do I setup a Google adwords campaign without a website/landing page and not getting banned?

      Mike, How is this done?

  • Re: How To Make Money From CPA - Step By Step Guide

    You're talking about the first step is to select one of the networks. That's fine,
    but to be accepted by one of the networks, you need to have one to five websites already! I don't have any websites yet, what should a website look like that will be accepted by each of the networks?

    Anyone willing to send me some URLs I can have a look at?
    • [1] reply
    • I'm kind of wondering the same thing.

      Is it necessary to have a landing page? Just wondering if there was anyway to shortcut straight to the affiliate offer.
    • [DELETED]
  • Banned
    nice information here thanks
  • Thanks for the info. I will put this info to some good use.
  • Are landing pages essential or can you just have a link going to the offer?

    It would make sense that if the middle man were cut out and the customer went straight to the source the sale could be made quicker. Would you be able to provide a link to the affiliate offer that give you the credit?
  • Awesome,

    I add this to my CPA collection.

    Thank you,

  • Solid guide.

    I would start with Adwords before I start with the smaller, cheaper services. Google is still king when it comes to traffic, and the sooner you can master Adwords the better.

    • If you good at ppc , specially adwords , I recommend you start with ppc.

    • When ever you do any business , especially Intent marketing related it is always recommended to diversify your money and efforts among multiple income opportunities - do not depend on a single source of income , traffic , etc.

      So , your move is right .

  • When you get turned down after applying at the network and you will many times, don't worry just call them and explain what your doing if you don't have a website just tell them your going to do ppc. Just answer the questions they ask and no more, before you get off the phone ask if your approved. Some are not going to approve you its OK.
    • [1] reply
    • What every should know is "CPA networks" want to avoid affiliate who use black hat techniques to generate crappy traffic .

      So, you have to persuade them that you drive quality traffic to CPA offers so as to get accepted .

  • Hey awesome guide, step by step, nice and easy post structure...Good stuff man keep up the good work!

    To all affiliates - CPA IS CHANGING! the storm of the FTC is cracking down on free trials and the spammy offers/presells/etc...

    Many affiliates don't like cpa offers because many don't focus on helping the customer and their formulas for supplements are just fillers to keep costs low as possible and many other shady practices...

    BUT as someone kind of on the inside of the whole FTC movement, watch out for the good quality ethical CPA offers, they are coming! they might not convert at 8-15% as some of the less ethical ones claim but they will add TONS MORE value to the right people...the customers spending their hard earned pennies.

    I had to throw that in there, again awesome post!
    • [1] reply

    • As it has been noted, it is important to take into consideration FTC when ever you market CPA offers .
