I have been promoting CPA offers for about one and a half month now. I am happy that I have seen some success so far. Currently I am a member of Maxbounty and I promote offers related to video games. Check my last post about My First CPA Money.

Recently I started to work on a new website which will be mostly like a freebie and offers site and I am currently working on getting more traffic to it. I decided to try other networks as having more offers will give me more flexibility and in case if something goes wrong with one network then I can continue with the other.

That’s why I applied to Adscend Media CPA network. I don’t know much about that network yet, though they approved me in one day without a phone call. I strongly advise it to the ones who are uncomfortable with the phone calls.

They require a W8 form submission before you can get paid. There are about 600 campaigns in 14 categories in this network. Payments are made via Paypal, check, direct deposit in US, and wire transfer internationally. A good feature of the network is that they have content gateway and file gateway offers. This can be really powerful if you have some websites related to content like videos, software and other files.

I think Adscend Media is a good place to start for the newbies. If you consider joining, here is my referral link to Adscend Media.

Now I am on my way to check what type of offers they have and try them on one of my websites. I’ll update you about how it goes.

Please leave a review on the thread if you happen to buy a copy for yourself. There is a link to my Ezine Articles account on the thread so that you can see my article samples. In fact if you have been following this blog, you know about my writing. I am not an expert article writer; however, I am working on it and reading and writing a lot. You may remember my last post about My First Article on Ezine Articles, now I have 13 live articles and 596 views with a 2.6% CTR. 3 of them are published and 1 emailed.

Again, if you are going to target Twitter marketing niche, this articles will really help you.

I know that whoever enters the internet marketing realm, they are flooded with information overload. They keep searching for a better method, for an easier way. They find really valuable information that will work for them if they just followed it; however, they keep looking for and barely take action.

I was once like that. I was reading all the forums related to internet marketing, downloading all the ebooks with catchy titles, in short I was trying to make money without doing what was necessary to make money. That is to take consistent action until it works.

Now, I continue to search and learn about new methods and strategies, though the time I devote to taking action is much more than the time I spend learning. So, how was I able to change my mindset like this?

At one time, while I was reading an ebook, I realized that I knew what it was talking about. The only thing I lacked was the required action the book mentioned. Then, I decided to leave the ebook open and do what it suggested rather than just reading it. I followed every step the report talked about and finally I was at a point where I was taking more action than reading.

From that time, whenever I find something that grabs my attention, such as an ebook or a forum thread, I leave it open and do not read it until I finish taking action in my plan for that day. Because I know that no matter how incredible the ebook or thread is, it will tell me one thing only: Take action, whatever it is.

I got my lesson, and I am on my way to taking more and more action.

Most of the bloggers use blog commenting to get backlinks and traffic so that they rank well in the SERPs. If done properly, blog commenting can be really powerful and gain you lots of backlinks and traffic in a short time. Even, it helps you to establish your authority in your niche.

This is a strategy I use to get backlinks and traffic to my blogs. Basically, the idea is to find popular blogs related to your niche and visit them occasionally and post comments on the articles that you are interested. This way I gained some PR juice as well as some traffic. This is something you will see the benefits in the long run, so do not expect a traffic overload in one day. Just, post your comments patiently and you will see it. On the table below, you can see the traffic that I got from blog commenting.

Recently, while organizing my bookmarks, I noticed that if I used Google Reader for that purpose, it would be faster and easier to comment on the blogs that I follow. So, what I did is I collected all the blogs that I am following in a folder in Google Reader and classified them according to their subjects. This way, now I am able to see all the new posts in one screen and choose the posts that interest me and comment on them.

You can see a screenshot of my Google Reader account where I have blogs related to affiliate marketing in a folder.

Note that what I talked about is not spamming others’ blogs with nonsense comments or posting thousands of automated comments at a time. What I do and urge you to do is to contribute to the discussion, this way, you will gain more traffic to your sites and establish your authority in the niche faster.
