Here i am a newbie in CPA marketing, follow me as i make my first $$$ from CPA marketing, a newbie guide to CPA marketing as well.
What is CPA marketing?
CPA is an acronym for "cost per action".
"CPA" marketing is just a term in the affiliate marketing industry whereby you make money as a publisher by advertising products and services for companies.
I am about to start a step by step guide on CPA marketing and how you will be making money from it.
There are different type of Cost Per Action, it can be anything from simply collecting an email address as a lead, getting a sale for the advertiser or simply collecting zip codes.
All actions such as a lead that you collect or a sale that you collect for the advertiser will be paid for to you by the CPA network.
To make this look simplem here are two examples of how you will be making money as a "Publisher" for many CPA networks.
Example 1:
A company runs various offers where they are interested in building their email list so if you refer someone to their service that enters their email address, you get paid. On one network you can make up to $1.70 for someone that enters just their email address. This is an example of a pay per lead action.
Simple you may think!!!
Example 2:
Another company sells their coupon book each year for $12.50 to the consumer. If you refer someone that purchases the book, you will get a percentage of the sale. On one network they offer a $7.00 payout, so you get just over 50% commission. This is an example of a pay per sale action.
There are many CPA networks for you to get started.
The interesting part of it is that signing up to CPA networks is completely free, and the more you sign up for the better it would be.
This is due to the following reasons.
Each CPA network may have different offers than the other.
A CPA network might have the same offer but one network may payout more than the other.
