Using CPA to Monetize Your Website Building Efforts

CPA networks (Cost Per Action networks) pay commissions based on the action requested. So, if you are asking for an email adress, you will get paid for obtaining that. If you are asking for a mailing address, you will get paid when the customer gives this information. There are hundreds of CPA networks with similar offers and programs.

When you are starting out, you can join one just to get the hang of it and then gradually add more to your portfolio. To be able to join a CPA network, you need to apply first. This process can take a couple of days. You'll fill out an application and then someone from the network will call you and perform a telephone interview. They'll ask you how you plan to promote their offers and how much you expect to spend. They'll also ask you how long have you've been involved in affiliate marketing.

Once you've been accepted, you can get started right away. You will be assigned an affiliate manager who you will work with to determine the best offers for you and how to optimize your efforts, etc. How do you know which one(s) to choose? It's generally recommended to sign up with a lot of CPA networks in order to get the best results. But you can also start with just one until you get the hang of it.
