There are a number of ways to make money on the Internet. Affiliate Marketing is one of those ways. Promoting CPA offers is somewhat of an advanced strategy of affiliate marketing. I like to refer to it as affiliate marketing for grown-ups.

Why? Because you have to have some prerequisite knowledge of basic affiliate marketing and not just anybody can do it. You have to apply and be accepted by a CPA network in order to sit at this table.

CPA or Cost Per Action, is a program wherein an advertiser pays you as the affiliate for a specific desired action taken by the consumer. That action can take quite a few forms. Some of those actions include an outright purchase, acceptance of a limited or free trial, a form submission or survey, an email submission or zip code submission.

In order to begin making money on the Internet with CPA offers, you will need to sign up and be accepted with a CPA network.

CPA Networks are basically clearinghouses for these offers. The companies who make the products or want the products to be promoted bring them to the market via the CPA network and those of us who want to make money by marketing the products sign up to push the offer. Think of the CPA network as a broker of sorts.

As affiliates, we join these networks, select the products we want to promote, and utilize our websites, blogs, and media buying to drive traffic to the offer. Many affiliates who have a decent size list will also utilize email marketing as well.

CPA offers vary from products in markets such as dating, health, beauty, education, finance, work from home and many more.Right now one of the products we are marketing is a diet program. Here is a banner ad from the program we are promoting via various means.

So can you make money on the Internet promoting CPA offers? Well, let me put it to you this way… the Medifast program featured above brings in over $250.00 per day on average…and we are’nt even one of the major players in the market. Look at that again. That single program alone averages $250.00 per day in profits for us.

Now do the math and think about how much money you can make with CPA offers. We have one email submit program that converts at over 30%…that’s crazy. What’s really nuts is that the guys who are really killing it and have the resources to really scale a program, are making over $50,000.00 or more PER DAY!!! No BS, I know a couple of guys who regularly bring in over $100,000.00 per day.

Now understand, these power hitters are spending upwards of $20,000 or more advertising the products as well. But hey, they started where you are. Trust me, it doesn’t take long at all. Remember we began our trek in affiliate marketing just a few months ago after we got fed up with the bullshit of real estate agents. What a difference it has made!

The key to making money on the Internet with anything is having the ability to put eyeballs on your offer. You have to drive traffic. Profits are measured in small percentages. If you are only converting 2% then 100 visitors only equates to 2 sales…that is if all 100 visitors to your site or advertisement click on your offer.

In an effort to be as transparent as possible you have to know there really is no secret to this. You can sell a product on eliminating man boobs if you can drive the traffic. It’s all about eyeballs. If you can put enough eyes in front of your offers and have enough offers running, you will make a boat load of money.

There is a market for things you would have no idea about…remember when you seek to make money on the Internet, your market is global. So the catalyst for success is being able to drive traffic to your offers.

We will continue our discussion about CPA offers and CPA networks in our new Massive Profits Internet Marketing 101 series which we will be launching on September 1, 2009 right here on this blog. We hope you come back and want to hear more about CPA offers, CPA networks and how you can profit from these offers.
