Hands Down What Is The Best CPA Course? Opinions & Suggestions Please!?

36 replies
I have been searching for a good cpa program. Every time im about to purchase one i read the reviews on this forum and hear bad stuff. I seriously cant get a legitimate answer on a really good cpa program that covers A-Z.

I have no limits on what i can spend. Is there a program that is already out on the market (home study course not coaching) that most would agree is hands down an EXCELLENT course?

Any information would be GREATLY appreciated.

      I would say Affiliate Payload is a good one....and it's only $97. I invested in the Arbitrage Conspiracy, but if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't have. I'm making money now with CPA's, but it's taken longer to get that 2k back than it would have to get that $97 back. Good luck...

        thanks veotis. I will pick up the payload. I was considering getting arbitrage but just heard LOTS of bad stuff about it.

        anyone else?

          ac2 ha ok content but is poorly presented

          some of the techniques in payload do not work
          Not every technique in any given course is guaranteed to work, it's all about finding the ones in a course that do work, and applying them. Both Affiliate Payload and the Arbitrage Conspiracy present techniques that do work. With that being said, I believe most people would rather spend $97 dollars to discover these techniques than spend $2,000.

    check this out:

    Uber Affiliate Marketing Guide

    everything you need to make money with cpa is there - then it's up to you to scale it.

    I'm not gonna go on some rant about "how you don't need to buy courses/ebooks...bla bla" b/c if you're brand spanking new it may serve a purpose... -but it's important to understand that ALL of the proven methods still work at some level. CPA is simple - you drive traffic to offers that convert - then you test(ads), test(landing page) and test(offers) some more. It's that simpe. You really wanna know how to make money with cpa? Just watch the people who are doing it - what do their ads/banners look like? what do their landing pages look like? ...etc That's bar none the best education you can get and it's free.

      Without a doubt, the single best course is...

      PPC Formula by Gauher Chaudhry

      PPC Formula 2 is going to launch less than a week from today on March 31, 2009.

      You can signup for the early bird entry and also get an 89 page FREE report which is basically the original PPCF1 put into an ebook. The original was six videos and more.

      The best thing about PPC Formula is that he also shows you how he tracks everything using his "Maximus" spreadsheet.

      Right now, he is giving it away along with a video (and other bonuses) just for opting in to get the free ebook.

      I will PM my aff link to anyone interested in it.

      PM me if you want it.

      Regards,

      John

        I second that, PPC formula 2 is by far the best course I've seen about applying CPA/PPC.

        He's also got a free course over at CPA Hotspot

        3w.cpahotspot.com/?ref=73318

        But at the end of the day, you can find more than enough free info by searching on the big G

    I have to agree that Gauher may be something you will want to check out. Gauher is the fellow that taught the Arbitrage boys. I purchased the Arbitrage and am totally new to PPC and I struggle hugely with little snags that were not mentioned because they are common knowledge to many that have dabbled in it. Besides Arbitrage is not open to join.

      hey kim. that is not accurate. fwiw, Emmanuel took three courses, and all three had great information BUT none of them are what set him on fire. As far as aymen, he never took his course or anyone else's for that matter.

      Gauher just added 10 brief videos on getting traffic for free in addition to the report, his tracking spreadsheet and how to use it training video, and other bonuses.

      If you haven't gotten it yet you are missing out big time.

      Again, it is essentially PPC Formula 1 in a free ebook plus all the bonuses (and he keeps adding bonuses).

      You can get it here:

    You may also want to check out CPA Marketers Bootcamp if PPC Formula 2 is out of your price range, though I imagine PPCF2 will come with a money back guarantee which removes any risk to get it.

    I'm a newbie, I'm just starting with aff marketing. So I'm buying some courses and softwares. Below is my opinion about some of them. I hope this "testimonial" helps you stay away from the bad stuff.

    I've just bought Zero Friction Marketing. I've already watched 4 videos (out of 30 ) and I'm enjoying the course. It's very easy to understand and explains everything very well.

    I've also bought recently Commission Blueprint (not about CPA, it focus more on Clickbank products). I highly recommend this course too (now they have just launched CB 2.0 now).

    Taking this chance, I want to say that I DON'T recommend you to purchase PPC Web Spy and PPC Bully. I don't know about the experienced ones, but they don't help the newbies...

    Ive only used arbitrage conspiracy. Dont believe you can try it now but I think they are coming out with a second edition but not sure when that comes out. AC worked great for me.

    Heard Gauher is good but havent tried myself. I know hes legit though!



    But this is my opinion. No matter what course you take, you have to go beyond the material given to actually make it in the cpa world. No course will give you step by step how tos because then that method will get soo saturated and not be profitable.

    So, its more your attitude than the course that will help you get somewhere in this or any other industry.


    Good luck!

    There are lots of good courses out there, it really just depends on what area you want to start in, excel in, or learn more about.

    Are you willing to spend money on traffic or go more towards free methods?

    I think the best thing to do with your money is to spend it on setting up a campaign. There is no knowledge that can replace the experience and insight you get from that.

      My suggestion is try Jeremy Kelsall's CPA Bootcamp it covers it all from getting accepted to the networks to using three or four techniques to get traffic and support with your questions. The price is right too. I think I paid $27.00.

    Hmmm, this is an old thread revived, but I think it's still relevant.

    I have to say I have not done this cpa bootcamp but I've heard lots of good things about it. Probably a good course to get anyone new going and started on methods, and I believe they cover a lot of free traffic methods. Heck, I am always looking for new ways to make money so I might even check it out sometime soon, just to see what all the fuss is about.

    Philip Mansour has a couple of good courses and they are quite cheap and I am not on commission to say this. They are basic with videos but all the necessary information is there. He also continues to email me good free content most weeks which is great. There is not any fancy software to buy and in my experience, when you login and create your campaigns at the various networks all the information is there. He uses video and you can pause the video as you do things. One thing I will say is that since I did the courses ASK.com is not taking advertisers directly anymore but apart from that all is well. The rest you will pick up by checking out this excellent forum and your own experience. Remember, no-one can do your press-ups for you or in my case no-one can swim my laps for me in my pool, I have to do it myself. Good luck and I hope this helps. Very best regards, Nickimfx

    Best thing for you to do is to go to youtube and watch videos on cpa marketing, most courses will cost you a good bit of money but the information is out there and its free.

    There is a lot of biased opinions out there that are trying to lead you to buy a product do your research and go with your gut feeling.

    I learned from Gauher Chaudhry his course is called pay per click formula, he is a very smart guy that actually does what he preaches.

    Good Luck

      CPA is such a wide field that you ought to do some initial research on the many directions you can take AND THEN decide the best course once you have a general idea which direction you want to take.

      Many directions just aren't compatible with people's interests/personalities/skills/character so its important to find a good product for YOU which may not be the best for somebody else.

      So I would do a quick education on the industry by google searching or through this forum, get an idea of the directions, and then pick a product in that area.

      My two cents for what its worth!

        I think all the guide are just guide if you dont put hard hand on it, no way will make you any money. What i have learnt for two years, seeing that to make an income online, you will need to get traffic to your site.

        Way to convert cpa is to have a clean site which ppl will see it first before anything else or do not put any distraction banner around your site just a cpa banner solely. This is converting crazy

          100000% true and I tell people this all the time. They think if they have a great product, site, idea, anything that traffic will come to them. It doesn't work like that. Traffic may come to you once a viral kicker comes into play but it takes a lot of work getting initial traffic to get the viral kicker stimulated.

          Its all about traffic, traffic, traffic

    Mike Morgan Wso is a quick easy way to get a concept of what's going on plus get started right away. I have bought many courses but I agree that you should start to experiment yourself you will learn much faster this way. Especially since you have a good budget to test different things.
