As an internet marketing beginner, searching for a method to begin making money online, you may want to consider “Cost Per Action” marketing. Done right, it is one of the simplest methods of affiliate marketing that is often overlooked because it has, for so long, been considered a mystery that only the so-called ‘big players’ knew all about. And that, to a degree, is true, because they have steered other internet marketers in the direction of clickbank product promotion to keep the truth to themselves.
Cost Per Action, sometimes referred to as “CPA,” is a type of Internet marketing that requires consumers to complete specific actions ” this usually entails filling out a form and requesting a free product sample, signing up for a free trial. In some cases, it involves asking the consumer to try a new product or service by making a small purchase.
For example, a company wants to get consumer feedback on a new product they have produced. They create an offer where they agree to pay you, the promoter, $1.60 for each person that takes action ie:submits their email and zip code when they visit their site. All you need to do is simply send the traffic and collect your $1.60 for each person that opts-in.
This is a typical type of promotion, the actions required are simple and the dollars soon add up. Others might pay as much as $40 for an opt in however the higher the payout, the more information that needs to be collected and possibly even a small upfront payment. This takes a bit more effort.
In essence you, as a CPA marketer, are really a traffic broker: You buy traffic on one end, send it to an offer page and get paid based on how well it converts. Sounds so simple, doesn’t it? It can be easy, but it generally isn’t.
You see, because of it’s high profitability, CPA marketing is also highly competitive, especially for the beginner. Competing with other affiliates making $500-$1000 a day, right through to super affiliates making up to $100k a day, can be challenging when you’re just trying to get started and unfortunately many beginners get frustrated and give up when they realise this type of marketing can be difficult and expensive. CPA marketing, done right can be and is, all that the sales letters say it can be. You can make those big dollars if you know what you’re doing you just need to do your homework first if you want to succeed with this type of internet marketing.
