How To Make Money From Home With Use Of CPA Affiliate Marketing
In this blog post I will teach you how to make money from home with use of an affiliate marketing method called CPA(Cost-Per-Action). CPA affiliate marketing is basically explained as a traffic brokering business. If I redirect traffic to a business site, and if the customer take action and buy something from that sites, fill out a form or whatever they require, I receive a commission for my efforts.
To get started with CPA affiliate marketing, you first and foremost need to get access to a affiliate network that provides CPA offers for their clients. There are several thousands of affiliate networks that offers this, but I will cut this straight into action and choose an affiliate network I have had personally success with, called MaxBounty . When you have got accepted with them and are set to start promoting the CPA offers, you need to choose a method of driving traffic to the CPA offers. There are several ways to drive traffic to CPA offers, but the most effective is PPC(Pay-Per-Click). Here you can easily monitor your ROI(Return Of Investment). Since Google AdWords is a complex and expensive system to use for Pay Per Click Ads, I have chosen to use a service called 7 search.
7 search is easy to use and are a lot cheaper than Google AdWords, which means more profit for you regards to your CPA campaigns. The most important thing to use ,when your set up your CPA campaigns with 7 search is a keyword variable at the end of your affiliate link, =###KEYWORD###. By using this variable you can exactly know, which keywords are converting for you and which one’s you shall get rid of.
I will now explain how to set up an campaign using 7 search for driving traffic and a CPA offer from Max Bounty affiliate network. First of all you need to choose a CPA offers to promote. If you do a search at Max Bounty, you will find a lot of CPA offers and a huge numbers of products to promote. It is easier to get leads than driving sales, so you will need to find a lead campaign that have a high EPC (Earnings Per Click). I have chosen a campaign for a gift card for IKEA(as an example), Campaign 2831: MyOffers.co.uk – Ikea Gift Card. This campaign has an Network EPC of 0,29(when I wrote this post). Why did I chose IKEA? It is a popular warehouse and have a high brand recognition in the general public and if you make a keyword search for IKEA within 7 search you will see that the cost per click for this keyword is only 0.07 for 1. ad spot. It is important to note that this offer particular are targeted to the U.K. market, so we also need to make sure we only geographical target U.K. traffic.(I will explain how to do this later in this post).If you manage to set this campaign up with an good ad copy text and drive the traffic to it as good as possible you will have a profit of $0,22 for each click you receive. NOTE: That this is not a guarantee, and it will take a lot of testing before you see that kind of results.
OK, back to setting up the campaign with 7 search. Click the create campaign button at Campaign page. Select a name for your campaign(IKEA), write a ad title that draws attention and attraction to your ad. (For Example: Get A £3000 Free IKEA Gift Card!) Write a killer ad description.(For Example: Want To Go On A Shopping Spree At IKEA? Get A £3000 Free IKEA Gift Card Here! Email address is required. Click Here For Details.) The reason for writing, Email address is required, are to avoid clicks from those who are not ready to register to be eligible for the offer. At the Display url, you preview the landing page at the chosen CPA offer at Max Bounty. You then type in the offers URL in Display URL, http://www.myoffers.co.uk . In the default url destination, you paste the affiliate url which you generate at Max Bounty by choosing creative type SEARCH and add the keyword variable =###KEYWORD### at the end. (This way, you can generate reports at Max Bounty and you will see which keyword that generated your lead/sale, if you have more keywords than one.) Next, Choose a Website Category matching your campaign. Set Your Daily Budget. Select your specific country, paying attention to where the CPA offer is allowing the traffic from. Then your all set and click create campaign. The next step will be to choose the keywords you want to target, be creative on this an test several keywords but make sure you can be able to quickly check back to weed out the bad ones that are only being a money drain for you and sift out the ones that are converting.
I wish you good luck on your CPA affiliate marketing, and keep in mind that I do not guarantee that you make money with this method, but I have successfully implemented this strategy to several of my CPA campaigns and have seen a positive ROI(return of investment).
