CPA CPA is an acronym for Cost per Action and refers to "ads" that are sold on the basis that money is only given when a certain action occurs because of the ad. A CPA ad could be one in which a publisher gets paid for people that click thru an ad and sign up for a newsletter or enter a contest or fill out a form for more information on a product. Many consider direct sales or Cost Per Sale ads, and CPC ads to also be a form of CPA. But CPA usually refers to being paid for leads, sign ups, and so on.

Default [Share] Great Script for anyone incentivizing CPA offers

I mentioned this script in a couple other threads in the CPA section and there seemed to be a fairly high interest in it, so I decided to make a new thread here so everyone can benefit from it.

Also, I did NOT write this script myself, I am simply posting it here and giving you some ideas on how to use it. Full credit for this script goes to agj32mrgibbits from this forum.

Basically, what this script allows you to do is to create a single ad on your advertising network while still letting you edit and rotate your offers. This also allows you to show the ad network a different page until your ad is approved - I know some people keep getting denied so this should help with that.

For example, if you are incentivizing non incent offers, your conversion rate is probably much higher than you would want it to be in order to stay safe, and this is where this script can help you especially if you need to do this for many offers.

Here are the instructions:

1. Save it as tracker.php or track.php or something that sounds like a traffic tracker.

2. Create a sites.txt in the same directory as the php file and enter ALL of your CPA offers you are using (one per line)

3. Upload them to your server, preferably your site's main directory.

4. When adding it to Findology make the URL be like "http://example.com/track.php?id=2932" so that it looks like you actually have tracking setup for a campaign.

5. Once Findology has approved your ad you can change $go=false; to $go=true; and re-upload it so that it will now show a random CPA offer from sites.txt instead of showing your website.

If this helps you out please show some love!

Code:
<?php 
//once findology approves your ad set this to true and re-upload it 
$go=false; 

//fake website, could be your blog with the CPA offer links on it, make sure you have content 
$site='http://www.example.com'; 

$sites=explode("\n",file_get_contents('sites.txt')); 
$redirect = $sites[array_rand($sites)]; 
$aff_link = "$redirect";  

if($go==true||$_REQUEST['trkid']==12){ 
    if($_REQUEST['trkid']!=12){ 
        echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=track.php?trkid=12">'; 
    }else{ 
        $referer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; 

        if($referer == "" || strpos($referer,$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'])) { 
         echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url='.$aff_link.'">'; 
        }else{ 
            echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url='.$site.'">'; 
        } 
    } 
}else{ 
    echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url='.$site.'">'; 
} 
?>

Cool Dev-Gank, Find*logy granted the page immidiately. Just to be sure, I uploaded the files to one of the blogs where I have some content and the CPA affiliate links. Not to the actual site where I execute the BHA script. That should be fine, correct?

Thanks again.

hello

I saw you Guys mentioned Black Hat attack method. I am planing to start as soon as i get my internet connection back at home because I dont have time for that at my work.

Can you please share your experience with BHA, can it really make you start earning in the first day of using it, and how do you choose your keywords if you are using ppc.

And what is Findology.

I would really appreciate your help.

thanks

I have had a great experience so far. It took me about a week or two before I found niches that were profitable, but once I did it started paying off well. With any type of PPC, it still comes down to niche research and great keywords, so it still takes some good solid effort.

Findology is an advertising company that some of us use to send junk traffic to our offers to lower the conversion rates.

Just want to make some correction just is case somebody else is going crazy as I was (specially noobs like me with no single idea of coding)

Where Dev-Gank says:

Quote:
1. Save it as tracker.php or track.php or something that sounds like a traffic tracker.
I actually saved mine as mytracker.php

So when my page was granted by find*logi I changed the $go=true and reuploaded, sent traffic and nothing was happening!!! Went paranoid.

I changed the line 14:

Quote:
echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=track.php?trkid=12">';
to

Quote:
echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=mytrack.php?trkid=12">';
And it works like a charm.

Disregard the zillion mails I may have sent to you Dev-Gank. Sorry

So, does it mean that traffics from Find*dolo*gy do not convert?
