4 Valuable Resources That Can Boost Your CPA Profits!

The popularity of CPA marketing is growing like wildfire.

(CPA means Cost Per Action or Cost Per Acquisition in case you didn’t know. This means the advertiser will pay you for simple actions, like for example a form submission or a free trial signup for a certain product.)

An ever increasing number of marketers these days are turning their attention towards promoting CPA offers, rather than regular affiliate offers.

The reason is blatantly obvious… To prove that statement, let me ask you which of the following 2 options you would prefer:

Would you choose to make a $30 commission from a product where the customer first has to fork out $47? (Example: ClickBank).

Or would you rather make the $30 commission simply from getting someone to sign up for a free trial of a certain product?

 

Wouldn’t it be great if you could make the $30 commission simply by getting a person to sign up for a risk free trial? Of course it would!

 

(Yes, this person would have to pay somewhere in the region of 2 to 6 dollars in shipping & handling, in order for you to get your commission, but that is still a pretty nice deal!)

You can even promote form submission offers, where all the person has to do, for you to get paid, is fill in either zip code or email address, and perhaps a little bit more.

These offers pay far less (typically in the region of 1-3 dollars), but they typically convert better than higher paying free trial offers.

Since CPA marketing is close to the boiling point right now, CPA Marketing Courses keep popping up left and right, promising to guide you through the “jungle” (with the product creators profiting handsomely from these courses, of course!)

Below are 4 valuable resources to help you out. 3 of them are free and one of them has a $47 price tag.

1) http://uberaffiliate.com/

This is a hard-hitting blog you probably never heard about.

This blog owner has made a lot of money with CPA, using mainly PPC, and he shares some valuable advice. His language may not always be “polished”, but he’s the real deal and you can learn a lot from him, unless you’re already extremely advanced in your CPA marketing.

Some of the advice you get might seem obvious, but sometimes it is hard to see the obvious, thanks to the massive information overload most of us suffer from.

Here’s an example for you: Most aspiring CPA marketers have a hard time picking the right CPA offers to promote. Here’s what our UberAffiliate blogger wrote concerning this vital topic a while back:

“Do you think PPC Affiliate Marketing is *largely* a “find a needle in a haystack” kind of game? Meaning you’ve got to throw up 50 campaigns to find 1 profitable one.

Through experience, certainly not. Ring tones are profitable. Dating is profitable. Credit reports are profitable. Diet products are profitable. I know because I’ve made a profit on each one, and they’re the most saturated ones out there. They’re the boulder in the haystack that everybody sees but many people are too afraid to go try and pick up.”

 

Great advice? You bet! Be sure to at least consider promoting CPA offers in the niches that he mentions. There is money to be made there, and who told you it’s impossible to get your little piece of the big CPA pie, for these niches?

2) http://www.affspy.com

This is a great resource to make sure you get the maximum commission possible when promoting a certain CPA offer.

I did a quick search just prior to writing this article, and believe it or not: The exact same ring tones offer paid anywhere from $8 to $20, depending on which CPA network you signed up for!

So you tell me, if that’s not worth your while, to spend a few minutes inside AffSpy.com to make sure you get that $20 commission, instead of ending up with a measly $8.

Such a huge difference in commission could easily make or break your Pay-Per-Click campaign, if you decide to use PPC to promote CPA offers.

3) http://www.articlebully.com/

This isn’t exactly a CPA resource, in and of itself, but it’s a great resource for those who want to use article marketing to promote CPA offers (or anything else). The not so great news is that this is NOT a free resource.

The current price is $47, and it offers a fresh angle when it comes to article marketing. I’ve read the entire ebook/pdf, and it was refreshing to see the author’s (Mike Long) method for never running out of ideas for new articles.

Plus Mike Long shows you how you can find niches to dominate by focusing on writing on mainly ONE topic. His strategy can be used with great success in CPA marketing.

4) http://www.offervault.com

This is one incredible free resource that can increase your knowledge of CPA marketing immensely. This website does include links to paid resources as well, so just be aware of that.

Just avoid clicking the button that says “Resources” and you will stay clear of the paid stuff. Just click where it says “Training” and you will get access to excellent training you should really expect to be paying for. But it is 100% free!

The great news is that the “Training” section on this site constantly keeps adding high quality CPA webinars to the “library”. These training sessions cover a lot of different angles for approaching the whole CPA game and includes advice from marketing experts like Greg Cesar, Gauher Chaudhry and the like.

OfferVault also has a section where you can search for different keywords, like for example “weight loss”, to see which weight loss CPA offers are available at the different CPA networks. You also get to see the commission rate for each offer.

I hope you found this information helpful in your quest for additional CPA knowledge and profits.
