Hello BHW!
My name is Anton, this is my first journey and first try to do something about CPA etc. marketing.

BACKGROUND:
I am a guy from financial / entrepreneurial sphere, worked on one of the projects with my mate, and he was the first who told me for the first time about CPA! I started to Google some articles about that, Google is nearly empty comparing to BHW! So here i am, reading this forum for like a month or so, but just reading, i think so, is not for me. I want to start to understand this on my own experience, so to speak in the field. That's why i decided to do my first journey. I will try to do my best. Hopefully, I'm already familiar with Wordpress/HTML/CSS basics!)

NICHE:
For the first run i chose Fortnite niche (yeah, yeah, i understand that niche is already so devastated, BUT it's still popular anyway). But i just think that ordinary "hacks" and "generator" sites initially looks like SCAM, so it seems to me the target audience of such a websites is like idiots with a bullet in the head!
My idea is to generate endless repeating flow of leads. How? I come up with idea of Fortnite News website with real actual news, updates and so-on, which regularly giveaways in-game items TO PROMOTE THIS WEBSITE AMONG TARGET AUDIENCE. This is an excuse for people asking, why are you giving out skins for free, etc. Looks fair? I think so!

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
Fortnite interested audience is reading news about esports, updates, streamers etc. There is a big GIVEAWAY button in header. On the giveaway page i wrote whole FAQ about why we are doing that, how it works, when the results will be revealed etc, and some of offers below that faq (like 3 giveaways currently available to apply). This is all done to make the visitor think that this is real news site, and giveaways are like extra stuff to promote our site! Reader can apply to each of that giveaways by filling "application form" and go throw "human verification" (aka. Content locker). We will update and add new giveaways regularly, so the audience can repeat and repeat participation (thats what i think an endless repeating flow of leads).

NETWORKS I USE:
1. OGAds;
2. Just today got applied to CPAbuild (not used yet).

WHAT'S DONE:
1. Quality website using Wordpress is already live!
2. Did basic SEO using Yoast (titles, descriptions)
3. Articles parses automatically from another sites throw WP Automatic.
4. 2 instagram business accounts created - one like official with articles and so-on, second for giveaways.
5. 2 facebook pages created for each instagram page.
6. 1 twitter account created (official with articles)
7. Using Blog2Social plugin to autopost articles from WP to Instagram, FB, Twitter.
8. Of course i added website to Google search console, Bing and Yandex.
9. Started to massive follow instagram Fortnite account from my Giveaway account.
10. All account have links to website (official to the news section, giveaway to giveaway section)

RESULTS:
1. Official instagram account - 17 autoposted articles with links to website, 0 subscriptions, 0 subscribers.
2. Giveaway instagram account - 3 articles about our current available giveaways, 1592 subsriptions, 693 subscribers (43,5%) (IN ONLY 3 DAYS!)
3. Twitter account - 17 autoposted articles, 0 subscriptions, 0 subscribers.
4. Total posted something like 50 articles on Website.
5. There are only 2 applications filled on the site.
6. $0.10 earned for 1 lead! :suspicious:

PROBLEMS:
1. News articles are not unique, cause they are parsed from another sites.
2. It seems like people dont want to go to the website from instagram giveaway account. (693 subscribers, 2 applications filled lol)
3. Google indexing problems!
4. Now we are continue to follow IG account from our account, but there are still no even application form fills. wtf

GOALS:
1. To understand how much is this niche worth the effort.
2. To understand my mistakes and fix it!
3. To start promoting all that goddam thing :D
4. To see the dynamics of indicators, I think This would motivate me the most.
5. Scale it up (this niche or make another using my method)

MORE MATERIALISTIC GOALS:
1. $5/day
2. $10/day
3. $20/day
4. $50/day
5. $100/day
and so-on to the moon!

So, that is the situation! I want to continue working but dont even know what is wrong and where to start from! I will be so glad to hear any advice or motivation from you! Thanks for reading! ;)
 
Best of luck! Take the long route as you say with a legit website etc. will make your CVR a ton higher.
 
Good luck with this journey man!
 
You should put a 'sponsored' sticky widget at the top of your sidebar. Then link it to a website that gives away 'free skins'. I think this is a pretty safe way of monetizing your news site idea
