Personal Review #9 - CpaLead

CpaLead is an advertising company based on the Cost Per Action principle (CPA) which means that advertisers pay when your visitors (leads) do a specific action. For example the A company pays 2$ for everyone that subscribes to their newsletter.

Most campaigns allow incentive traffic which makes it much more lucrative. They provide you with a custom gateway which blocks specific content from your site and your visitors must complete one CPA offer before they proceed. For example your visitors may have to complete a CPA offer to down a WordPress template you designed. As you can imagine the sky is the limit to what you may be offering (except for money rewards which are not allowed).

CpaLead pays its publishers via PayPal, check and ACH. Its' payment schedule is NET30 and the minimum amount of money you can request is 50$. Overall it is easy to reach the payment threshold even with a low traffic website or blog.

Publishers that don't have anything to offer to their visitors may still use non-incentive offers which pay more but convert less. Although I wouldn't recommend you to switch AdSense for CpaLead's non-incentive offers, incentive ones on the other hand are really lucrative.

You can also earn an fairly good amount of income by referring other webmasters and thus receiving 5% of their earning as a bonus (they still get the full amount). Sometimes if you are lucky enough to refer some really skilled webmasters you may end up earning more money from them than the amount you earn through your own network of websites.

Personal Review #8 Webeserve

Today I will introduce a freelancing platform which is really promising. It is Webeserve, a place where advertisers find their employees to make their mini tasks (something similar to mturk but better).

Employees:

• Start making money in minutes by completing mini tasks (0.10$ - 5$ per task)
• Get paid via PayPal when you reach 20$
• You can work whenever you want directly from your home

Advertisers:

• Outsource all the boring stuff you hate when you SEO your site (blog commenting, forum posting, social bookmarking etc)
• Set a price per action    > example: 0.20$ per Digg 
• Pay only for good quality work. Provide a good description at your job opening and include some RULES, if the employee fails to comply with them you are not obliged to pay him.

I currently use Webeserve as an advertiser but I had used this service as an employee in the past. Expect to make 3$-7$ per hour as an employee. I make much more as an advertiser myself.

Affiliate Marketing - Promote products online

There are many sites that offer you a variety of products to promote. If you know how to drive traffic to these products you will earn money every time somebody buys the product. They say an image is worth more than 1000 words, I will show you an example.

1) Sign up to an affiliate program (Clickbank,Commisionjunction,maxbounty etc...)

I personally use Clickbank , you may want to choose an other one because Clickbank pays only by check.

2)Choose a product that you think its easier for you to promote. Clickbank offers a variety of digital products ranging from internet tv to facebook games guides.

3) Drive traffic to the product. You may want to create a blog or site to presell the product there in order to increase the traffic-sales ratio. How to presell it? Write a review of the product, you supposedely bought it and you are very happy about it. A blog is enough for this

4)Repeat , repeat and repeat again. By the time you will see your first sale you will be so excited that it will not be as boring as before.

Have a look at a site made for clickbank.  Example

Its not the best but its enough to give you an idea about how others promote the products.

Most products pay at least 15$ per sale, depends on the product you promote.

Happy earning, don't be lazy, work work work...
