    One of the more effective ways to monetize a blog with a related CPA offer is to do a "review" of it. Write a review, but make it sound like you are an unbiased 3rd party writing a review with the pros and cons of the program, but give it an overall positive spin. Then, when you link to the product name just send them to your affiliate link.

    This is going to be a much more effective means of promoting the offer, and if you perfect this technique, it can be extremely profitable.

    What niche is your blog about. if its about freebies then you will get some conversion on email/zip submits, but if you are planning to sale it thru your blog , or use offer thats need CC to convert its quite hard to expect alot. its need lot of marketing knowledge.. PM me your BLog URL i can Guide your to get some conversion.

    Okay.
    Rather than a review, my site actually discuss about something. For example recently there is an Hulk Hogan Bar offer in Azoogle. My site was discuss about Hulk Hogan. I consider this very much related right?
    But I just wondering why it doesn't make any convert -.-"
    I have 100+ UV a day and it's been more than a week a set up that ads.
    I'm using both method i mentioned in my first post.

    Or direct link to affiliate product by keywords in the post perform better?

    Yes direct links to affiliate products by keywords in the post performs better.
    Write conversationally, then give a helpful tip with a link to buy the product, right in your copy.

    "100+ UV a day"

    The number of visitors is one metric but the important thing is how many CLICKS are you getting on your affiliate links? It can take 500 clicks before you get your 1st sale. After you learn the ropes conversions should be one out of 50 - 100 if the program converts well.

    Hope this helps and best of luck!
