Ahh Yes, Cpa Marketing. It's where it all began for me. Congrats on making that first leap of faith. Now the hard work begins. Although cpa is a great way to make money, there is a serious learning curve.
I have a few people apart of my community that reach for cpa marketing tips and tricks. And The first question I ask them is, what type of results are you looking for?
You need quality traffic bruh
Cpa marketing is a vertical that needs high amounts of traffic. It's the only way you will see any real revenue. You could ultimately take the long route but that has the same results as building a website.
You also must remember that if you are going to take the long route when building traffic, then you want to make sure that you create versatile landing pages. Offers don't last forever, and they change fairly quickly. Which means that when one offer goes down, you want to be able to replace it with another offer on the same landing page/domain. It gets complicated.
Once I was able to get the hang of cpa marketing, I started making websites, and optimizing for conversions. But when you are just starting out, you are more than likely looking for a fast track way to make that dough, FAST.
Start with Bing
If you are looking for fast results, then it's important that you move on over to Bing and play around with buying paid traffic. It's the cheapest you are going to get, and you won't wake up sick as hell from losing tons of money.
The big dogs who are banking right now(such as myself, not trying to brag lol) are buying paid traffic. I also build websites around cpa offers that convert well, and send paid traffic to my money page.
There are tons of different ways to promote cpa offers. Your best bet is to try the above just to get your feet wet. At the end of the day cpa marketing is just like affiliate marketing, the conversions are just easier. You have to treat them the same.
One quick Idea I will give away (I don't do this often)
My gems are usually kept close to me and shared in other places. But I feel like being nice today. While you are trying to get the hang of CPA (which will take a while my friend) You can leverage Ebay, and Amazon.
What you can do is write a book and or find PLR ebooks, and republish them on these two platforms for free.
Find an offer that is relevant to the book, and place that link within the preview area. As people come check out your ebook, they will also see your cpa offer link; in turn clicking, acting and making you money.
It's all about stepping outside the box Pimp
When it comes to cpa marketing, you have to be willing to step outside the box. People can give you tons of tricks, but if you aren't willing to think and scale on your own then it won't work.
Be prepared to come up with ideas, and try new ways to get your offers out there. The comp is steep, so you have to stand out.
