Sure, you got lucky it seems.
CPA Network is a website where you sign up as a Publisher and there you can find Network's Offers (CPA offers) for free, you don't pay these, and you'll gain access to the networks monetization tools, which are content lockers in various forms.
Niche site is the best way to go. Niche stands for a community interested in something. Example would be niche Fortnite.
Fortnite is a game that has it own values such are V-bucks, game Skins, and other resources. Majority of these items cost $$.
Your job is to create niche site (Fortnite in this case) and advertise some items that cost money in game for free in exchange of completing an offer or few of them, from your CPA Network.
How to get a website? Download HTTRACK and use Google + YouTube to search for your niche hack / coins / free stuff etc
See what website looks good to you, check from your mobile device if everything is well optimized, and download one site for start.
Learn basic HTML CSS JS or just find the website money link and replace with your network link.
Google how to clean website from malware codes, common malware codes etc.
One thing is open all files of a website and search for windows.location that could be dangerous and see if there is any link near.
Download Notepad++ to edit website files.
Steal content from other marketers, such are good YouTube videos, and then re-upload with your watermark, buy yourself a domain for every niche, and try to keep it short so it is easy for your audience to type instead of clicking anything. Nowadays posting links is getting harder, but not for everyone

(youtube)
CPA smartlinks could be done via bitly, for tracking and masking a little, you can also buy another domain and create a path domain.com/path and upload index.html with 301 redirect html code (google) and then use that domain/path inside of bitly (as a smart link)
301 redirect will redirect your domain.com/path to original niche site. This is useful if sometimes your end location (niche site) gets banned for CPA content (nowadays very present) so you can edit 301 redirect to new location.
Change DNS to Cloudflare of all your sites and learn how to force SSL redirect. Cloudflare offers free 1 site per accout, so abuse it with multiple accounts for multiple sites.
Drive traffic from YouTube for start, steal thumbnails, descriptions, titles, tags from your competition along websites, and videos.
Magic is in the video proof. Better proof is when you can spend resources visibly on video. So you can search for Fornite vbucks spending spree and cut part of content where someone has bought and now spending resources, then go record your screen, search for your site, open, do steps, finish, show how you have resources (that part you steal from someone)
By default top performing offers should appear when someone attempt to open your network CPA locker.
Never record your site with locker on it, edit your site to show status completed, or via video, and then set your locker.
So audience will think hey this site has no verification form, I'll open the link, and that's enough for you, mission accomplished.
When it comes to testing, you should put 1st locker you think would work well for like 2-3 days max, then switch to another and see if anything is better, and mess with it until you gain experience.
I could give you way more hints, but enough is enough.
Google is your friend and good luck.
