CPA Affiliates New Look Coming Soon

7 People Speaking Their Mind - Put In Your Two Cents!

Posted on March 30, 2007 in CPA Affiliate Announcements  

I wanted to give my readers a heads up that a new look will be coming to CPA Affiliates (Don’t worry the same great information and news will remain). I have been using a Free Word Press design for tool long. So I decided to do some revamping. First CPA Affiliates will have a logo and a new design in the coming weeks. Here is a sneak peak at the new logo.  This is also a heads up that in the next two weeks if you experience any issues in viewing this site, we might be messing with the back end and appologize ahead of time.

Also once the new look is complete and launches I will be giving away some Goodies!!!

Mini CPA Sites the New CPA Landing Page

7 People Speaking Their Mind - Put In Your Two Cents!

Posted on February 11, 2007 in Affiliate Tips, CPA Affiliate Announcements  

Last month I ran a contest where i announced i was giving away a Google Digital Picture Frame (Read it Here). After reading all the entries I declared a winner, Dealasite. Below was Dealasite’s comment that contained some good information.

Instead of writing landing pages, I’ve been working on writing landing ’sites’. They’re like mini websites where I group similiar affiliate offers, all SEO optimized for ranking. My goal is to get these to rank in the serps, and after a few weeks, they’re actually doing it!

For example, maybe a site on Top Dating sites. Your index page can be an intro or summary of your top rankings with reviews/comments. A click on each dating offer could lead directly to that offer’s unique landing page.

Of course, all affiliate links should be cloaked and all landing pages should be seo optimized like topdatingsites.com/true.html or topdatingsites.com/eharmony.html, etc.

You PPC campaigns can still target that 1 landing page like normal, but the advantages of tying all these pages together would be:

1) Lower bids by increased quality score because google or other search engines see an actual website (seo-optimized).

2) In a few weeks, actual indexing in the serps leading to free traffic. (I create some backlinks from my other sites to add weight)

This may be old news to everyone, but I though I’d throw it out, because all I hear people talking about is writing 1 landing page per domain with some little privacy and contact page thrown in.

With my mini-site method, it will be around forever and I’ll just keep rotating affiliate offers in and out as they come along.

While i don’t feel this will do away with just landing pages. I do feel this is more of a trend for PPC as it goes to more measuring technics to see if your ad and page is worthy. Dealasite I have sent you an email asking for your information as to where to send the Digital Picture Frame.

Super Bowl Ads

1 Person Speaking Their Mind - Put In Your Two Cents!

Posted on February 4, 2007 in Affiliate Tips, CPA Affiliate Announcements  

Well i decided to write about the Super Bowl Ads mainly due to the fact that i think most of them were sorry. I usually look forward to the ads during the game but lately they have been a big dissapointment.  Their was only a few of them that i even remotely found funny or entertaining; the blockbuster one before the game started with the animals clicking and scrolling with a real mouse, chevy car wash (funny in a wierd way), and the career builder ones….  Why am i writing about this on my blog?  Because a internet marketers we need to appeal to people and convience them to either visit our site, buy our product or signup for something. So here are a few tips.

1. Get People to your site.  Get People interested in your product, site or signup to your site. (targetted traffic, no use in sending a 1000 visitors interested in skiing to a hot rod site.)

2. Engage People on your site by visuals or unique content

3. Provide informative and usefull information about the product or signup.

4. Give Testimonials if possible.

5. (acutally this should be higher on your priority) if there is a way to make your site go viral or get a lot of buzz (social bookmarking etc..), utilize that with a stunt, video or giveaway.

6. Give them easy access to buy, sign up or revisit your site.

7. Make sure the actual singup/buy page is working and is just as engaging as your presell (nothing like a killer presell with a horrible buy page)

8. Test, Tweak, Test, Tweak.

9. If you can’t get it to work after many tries and can’t seem to get advice or tips from other people try another area, or try harder….   Sometimes it is the 100th try i get it right sometimes it’s the second…… but even when it is the second try their is always room for improvement.

10. When you find something that works try to repeat it in another area with tweaking of course.

You have any tips you want to share or want to give feedback about the super bowl ads…. just leave a comment.

Affiliate Summit West Agenda For Me

6 People Speaking Their Mind - Put In Your Two Cents!

Posted on January 16, 2007 in CPA Affiliate Announcements  

This week I have been getting ready for Affiliate Summit West. I even got some pens made that have www.CPA-Affiliates.com on them to hand out to people that are interested. More importantly than promoting this blog is to make more connections with networks and with people.

First, I plan to meet with all my existing Affiliate Networks that will be present at Affiliate Summit. I will be stopping by the following network booths in no particular order.

- CPA Empire
- Maxbounty
- Linkshare
- AzoogleAds
- HydraMedia
- MillNic (even though they won’t have a booth I will be meeting with the owners)
Of course I plan on stopping by the others but I plan on sitting down with the above networks for a few minutes to see what they can do for me and what I can do for them.

Second, I plan to attend at least of the few classes / sessions offered. I am planning to attend the following sessions.

- Opening Remarks & Keynote
- Announcements on Industry Initiatives
- Marketing Your Affiliate Site – Outside of the Box
- Ask the Experts: Super Affiliates
- The Confluence of Search and Affiliate Marketing (maybe)
I may be attending other sessions but these are ones that I plan to make an effort to attend to help gain a little extra insight or help spur on some of my current projects with new ideas.

Thirdly, I plan to network, network, and network! While all of the things mentioned above are important to me, but most importantly is making more industry and personal connections. While the sessions are good, some of the friends and connections I have made in the past have taken me much further than I could have imagined.

If you are going to be at Affiliate Summit West and would like to chat with me in person just leave a comment and I will email you at the email that the comment is left with. I can’t wait for Affiliate Summit West, if nothing else I come away with great contacts.
