CPA Marketing In 2013

Earlier today I recorded a webinar for hundreds of attendees who wanted to know how to get started and profitable with CPA marketing in 2013.  I actually started two live campaigns on the webinar and within 30 minutes of the webinar ending I started to get clicks and conversions on one of the offers. See the screen shot below:

This campaign was set up with 7search traffic with an average bid of $0.05 CPC and it is already getting a $0.13 EPC meaning that I am making an $0.08 profit on every single click.  I have already added more traffic sources to this campaign and hope to hit 100 leads before the end of the day for this campaign.  This just goes to show that nothing happens until you take action and make things happen.

Watch the webinar below by clicking on the video.

How To Make Money With Display Advertising And Real-Time Bidding

Over the last decade I have spent millions of dollars on paid advertising such as PPC and PPV, but I never spent that much when it came to display advertising.

I was always reluctant to get involved in media buying although I had a lot of affiliate managers and friends telling me that it was huge and massively profitable back in 2010.

The first thing that came to my mind was why all of the hoopla about media buying in 2010 since this is the oldest form of advertising online?

I mean that first form of advertising was banner ads and back in 1995, Yahoo was charging as much as $30 per thousands impressions for 468 x 60 banners.

I challenged any one of my affiliate managers to show me one affiliate who was massively successful with media buying without running fake blogs or fake articles.

These same people who were encouraging me to get into media buying suddenly went quiet.

Nada. Ziltch. Zippo. Not a word.

So all of a sudden media buying become a hot topic because it was easily scalable and tons of affiliates were making money by basically cheating consumers with fake blogs and articles.

That was until the FTC came in and started suing affiliate networks and affiliates.

Now don’t get me wrong, I am sure there were affiliates cashing in with legitimate display campaigns at the time, but they were the minority.

I didn’t think twice about media buying until a good friend of mine told me that he was making great money buying display ads to advertise his ebook product on Clickbank.

I found this very intriguing because it was a legitimate product being promoted via banners ads without any cheap tricks or shenanigans.

This is what started my interest in media buying the last few years and since then I have had many success and failures with media buying.

The most common myth is that you need thousands of dollars to get started, but that has changed a lot and there are networks that allow you to get started for as little as $10 such as BuySellAds.com.

Real-Time Bidding (RTB)

Real-time bidding using a media buying platform like Sitescout.com allows you to buy a bucket of 1,000 impressions at a dynamic bid price.

This allows you as a media buyer to basically buy impressions in real-time at your set price allowing you to value each individual traffic source.

Sitescout.com is an easy-to-use, web-based RTB platform that allows you to create and manage banner and mobile ad campaigns in real time.

Sitescout works as a middleman between dozens of premier ad networks and let’s you tap into hundreds of millions of available daily impressions.

I was surprised to learn that Sitescout headquarters were only a 25 minute drive from my house so I went down and met some of the co-founders who explained to me how the technology works.

Since then I have run some sample campaigns and attended some of their live events.  Below is a photo of the founder and CEO of Sitescout, Paul Mokbel on my left and the director of marketing, Ratko Vidakovic on my right.

If you are looking to test out media buying without having to commit thousands of dollars, yet still have access to a huge inventory of display advertising, Sitescout.com is a good place to start.

Being Creative To Grab Attention

Recently I entered the debt market and started promoting pay per call offers, where as an affiliate, I get paid for driving prospects to call a toll-free number. I have a partner in this business and we did a lot of brainstorming on different ways that we could attract prospects and get them to call the toll-free number.

We have come up with dozens of ideas and have already tested various marketing mediums. Some of these ideas were downright hilarious and creative. One of the ideas was to create viral videos that would promote the toll-free number and put these videos up on video sharing sites. We had multiple videos created and the one below didn’t make the final cut. I thought it would be cool to include it on my blog so that you could see that there are many ways to get attention online.

Sometimes you just got to use a bit of creativity! 😉
