I reverse enginner competitor taboola (and other native) ad campaigns, it saves a fortune in testing and make 5 figures per month doing it.
The harder part is getting accepted to the cpa offer!

Hello, can you give tips on how you get accepted? What do you tell them? Do you tell them your whole operation? Have you tried reverse engineering a competitor and making your own product instead? I am in this situation right now for my country (not US)

It was years ago when i joined, so cannot help you with getting accepted now
Yes i have done that and it works well
There is a lot of potential outside the us, particularly non english speaking.
Also there are many other native ad companies, such as outbrain, revcontent, mgid etc.

Outbrain merged with Taboola now, now only Taboola if I'm right. May I ask you do traffic arbitrage like native ads to adsense, or only media buying from native ads network like Taboola?

I dont know who owns what.
I really just use native ad campaigns to reverse engineer cpa offers and occasionally create my own version of the product. That way it is largely a passive income after setup.

Ah! I see, you were talking about CPA networks. I thought you were going directly to the advertisers and striking up a deal with them. I just pulled an all-nighter, my brain has checked out already haha
I think so too, I am from non english speaking one (Asia) and I swear, I've seen some native ads that has not changed in months.

When you find a keeper, do you also promote it via native ads? Ever had a sour competition who tried to sabotage your campaign in a native ad network because they figured your ad campaign is quite similar to them? Or you always made sure to take extra care of this part from the start?

Those are the ones to reverse engineer. They are not going to be paying for campaigns that make no money for months
I just copy existing campaigns. So yes sometimes affiliate but mostly cpa.
Even if you want to create your own version of the product/service, start as an affiliate then once you have a campaign running smoothly switch to your own product. That way you avoid any development cost until you know you can drive traffic and make sales

Thanks for sharing these and for the advices. I have been trying to discover and create another income stream that has nothing to do with Google. I will study the native ad guys in my country first. Is it ok if I send a pm to you after I've done my own research? I won't ask for your niche or something dumb like that haha

Only a little bit... copy winning campaigns is hardly rocket science
I like to have 10 varied income streams, so if/when one stream goes tits up none represent more than 10% of my income.
Native ads are just 1 of them, i also do something similar with parasites, which is the only thing i bother doing now with seo.
I dont have a niche, it is just blatent copying what works!
But sure, feel free to drop me a pm, however i only speak english

@GringoMonkey, are you using any spy tools to reverse engineer or are you doing it manually?

Great share - what tools are you using to reverse engineer? Perhaps that would push those that want to in the right directionThose are the ones to reverse engineer. They are not going to be paying for campaigns that make no money for months

You can use something like anstrex.
But you need to understand how to get campaigns approved and appreciate i combine cpm, cpa and get their details to remarket to. That is how i generate a large roi.
Then you are going to need a decent sized traffic budget to implement it.

Yes, taboola is pretty awesome.
There are tools like advault that you can use to 'spy' on the campaigns.

Hey mate thanks for sharing all this knowledge.
I'm new to the ad arbitrage space and just wanted to confirm if what you meant by getting the cpa offer accepted you mean..
1. Adsense (or alt) accepting your campaign/landing page as qualified and agreeing to pay you for displaying their ads?
or
2. Taboola accepting to drive traffic to your campaign/landing page?
Cheers
