Hi guys,
I first started messing with CPA about a year ago maybe a little bit more, and i was brought to it by friends who told me we can make tons of money from the internet. We started up a few wordpress blogs and started reviewing CPA offers and our tactic was to get long tail words (read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Long_Tail) and use google and yahoo ad service to produce sales/leads. This didn't go to well to be honest and we all go into separate ways but i will describe here one method i used and accualy had a pretty consistant daily income of $10 a day for a week (we started trying new stuff after a week).
Ok so what i did, we were signed up on COPEAC and i would go to COPEAC and find all the email submits offers i they had. One i had converting i remeber at that time was "Free $500 Sephora Gift card email submit", Then i go to yahoo and make a campaign for keywords like "sephora" and "free sephora" and other short keywords and bid really low on them. I'm trying to remember that far back to figure out if i was using redirect to the offer landing page or i was reviewing it and leading users from there (i'm not sure yahoo/google allow redirects there days). The problem with this was that it was not scalable (that was the real reason we abandaon it).
Anyways my friends motiv was always "when we will have the money to spend on PPC we will be rich" and i always told them "guys i have money to spend on PPC lets make money!" nowdays they all work really hard while i'm a freelance coder/consulter and still trying to make cash on line
Aight if anyone have any ideas on how to make this work again and make it scalable or hell show me some new stuff i'll love that.
kod.
PS.
title was suppose to be "how i used to make a few bucks a day" and i changed it into "$10" without removing the "a" sorry about the grammar
