Can I make a good income with CPA Marketing

CPA Marketing is quick to setup, easy to track, and has the potential of paying large commissions for each action. Because of this, it's easier to make money with CPA marketing than with just about any other marketing technique available to the average person.

With CPA Marketing, all you need is an offer and traffic. 99% of the time, you don't even need a website to host the offer, as the company themselves will host it for you and just give you an affiliate ID to include in the URL. That frees you to focus on driving traffic to the offer.

The traffic can be ANY targeted traffic that you can obtain, using any of the myriad of traffic generating techniques out there. The more targeted the traffic is, the better the chance that the prospective customer will take the appropriate action to generate a commission for you.

If you're someone who understands web hosting, HTML, SEO, and various other technical aspects of internet marketing - you can make a great income doing this. The more you can do to generate high quality, targeted traffic - the more commissions you can make!

    It's not that simple.

    Seldom can you direct-link to offers when purchasing traffic; at least for search traffic, and high-end media buys, and if you're planning to use SEO you're just wasting your efforts linking to dynamic, randomly hosted landing page.

    Just to point out, if you can, you might want to edit the title, as it almost seems like your the one asking for help.

      All you need is an offer and traffic ! Sounds simple to say but its not that easy to find an offer that really works coupled with traffic. And even if you find one, remember there are millions of affiliates from hundreds of networks working on the same affiliate offer as you. Not trying to pull down your thoughts but as pointed out before, these days affiliate marketing needs a little bit of thinking out of box to achieve the desired result or even get a ROI.

    Getting traffic is the main problem for many starting up with cpa marketing. However, it's not as difficult as it sounds if you know how. Using banner ads that stand out from the rest of the "stock" banners provided by the cpa operator is one way to get clicks. Design your own banners and link to the offer. Experiment, try ugly banners, banners with text only, green banners - you know, think different.

    You can also try ppv (pay per view) advertising but again be different. Don't send people to the home page of websites, send them to the inner pages that have the offers where people buy. Do this via a landing page that is of similar colour and look to the website you are targeting. These are the type of things you need to think about. Outside the box thinking - lots of traffic - you bet!

    Conceptually CPA is easy but getting the traffic is the hard part. Remember free traffic normally takes a bit of knowledge and experience to drive and paid traffic is paid so there is downside risk...and most people lose money to start.

    So yes, cpa is great, I love it, but it does take some learning. It's certainly worth it and if you can grasp a traffic source quickly, then you can make money quickly!
