i was reading up a few days ago about some random who signed up to max bounty, dating sites i believe, he then used landing pages to pull in the leads/sign ups which essentially paid around $5/signup he used PPC advertising to market it and at the expense of $60-70 he made $120-130 profit anyone else tried this?
Yes it is possible. I've done this, though it requires a lot of testing before you find the right combination of text & image for conversion.
this guy was completely new to affiliate marketing apparently so i would guess he struck lucky on his first week?
Hmmm it is possible because creating an ad is both art & science. Perhaps he has knowledge in marketing. Well his experience in IM is up to him to disclose, but it is possible with CPA marketing.
So he says??? He might be new to affiliate marketing but not to PPC advertising. PPC advertising can really eat a budget fast if you do not know what you are doing. al
Even if you do know what you're doing it can eat a budget; some things just can't be effectively marketed.
the main reason I got out of CPA marketing is because of the erratic results, and it can burn a hole in your budget easily. Some days you might get good conversions, other days none. Maybe I was doing it wrongly, but I got out once I crossed from red to black. Too much work and research as compared to email marketing. But then again, once you get it, it is very profitable.
