hi guys,
thinking to start (again) with doing CPA + instagram => the last time I did it was over a year ago and i didn't really put in the effort and gave up waaaay too quick.
now I was thinking to start again as I have alot of free time now (summer vacation).
the only thing that's bothering me from starting is the fact that it's actually a 'dirt' way of making money, like you 'trick' people and they make you money. what are your thoughts on this?
I know this is not the best forum to ask this but anyway just lmk what you think ;);)

You are talking about BH CPA which is kinda screwing people yeah.

White hat CPA is most of the time nothing more than AM with a middle man.

You try to give a company a lead and they will pay you for it. They could pay you for an email sign up but obviously that payout is lower than a subscription or product sold.

thanks for the reply :)
I was more talking about the black hat CPA , i'm pumped to try it again but idk if I will feel well about doing it tbh...
 
Do what makes u feel good . Never do something that will make u feel bad even for the money ( just saying )
 
BH cpa like free iphone offers etc is a quick way to see your first dollars. at some point you will understand that 0.04 per download is not worth the effort however it worth the learning curve. Than you will start to look at more legit CPA offers like leads for companies who provide real services/value. Once you picked up an offer you will already have the experience from promoting the BH offers so it will be more easier to you.

The term CPA is pretty broad, and you don't have to run things strictly blackhat. It's more about where to get traffic, so if you have a legit form of traffic, you can certainly find a decent offer to match that users would be pleased with. I've been running a CPA offer with just Reddit traffic for quite a while, and since it's a decent offer with a decent payout, everyone is happy and no one feels 'scammed.' I've had success with ad buying as well, but that takes a bit of cash to get up and running.

Either way, I was pretty surprised how easy it was to grab legit traffic without having to go the BH route. I'm sure there are others on the BH side that would say the same, so it all boils down to what you're comfortable with, and what works.
 
Scamming people into buying stuff they don't want, don't need, or is not what they expected, is literally what drives capitalism.
You're just doing what majority of companies does.
 
Why would you ask a question that you already know it's answer
i quote: " i will feel bad about it " lol. YES its good that you have the RIGHT feelings about BH CPA methods unless you're so damn desperate for money to do that.
Have you tried the WH CPA methods & didn't work for you?
 
I see, you have good morals but it is the mildest form of Blackhat. You don't physically or financially harm them, the only thing you take is their time.

I have only tried bh cpa methods before and didn't get good enough results because i haven't put in enough time & effort so it was completely my own fault
