How to Get Accepted by CPA Affiliate Networks & The eBay Affiliate Network Truth

===========================================
1. How to get accepted by CPA affiliate networks
===========================================

Thanks for all your great feedback on the make money giving away freebies post I made.

However, some people have trouble when they try to join the CPA networks but without a high traffic website.

A blog reader told me that most of my listed CPA companies require the website should have at least 1000 visitors per month, in one of them they even need 10,000!

So how can you get your applications accepted?

Most CPA networks have comments section in the application. You just explain in the comments block that you are going to use Pay-per-click and purchase some banners or text links to send traffic with direct linking.

You can even try calling in them to get your application manually reviewed.

This should get you into the most CPA networks.

===========================================
2. The eBay affiliate program truth
===========================================

A subscriber asked for my opinion of the Build A Niche Store script(not an affiliate link), which create content sites through the eBay affiliate programs.

I haven’t personally tried BANS but I don’t suggest anybody to buy it, because the eBay affiliate program is not as profitable as some other ones like Clickbank, even Adsense. Since eBay is only sharing a small part of their bid revenue, about 4% of the closing value of a winning bid, which is not generous compare to 75% of Clickbank sale and 78% of Adsense revenue share.

In fact, personally I’ve never had a good experience with the eBay’s affiliate program. If you really want to use BANS, you need to get approved by eBay Partner Network firstly. But the weird thing is I never get approved!

When they was handling their affiliate program with CJ (which turned out to be a big fail) and my affiliate application got declined automatically.

And on April 2008 they finally dropped CJ and built their affiliate program in house. I tried to join their eBay Partner Network but no response from them since I submitted my application.

And even worse, they banned hundreds of affiliates this month for reason that the traffic they were sending to eBay was “significantly less engaged”.

And here’s even a Squidoo len by a sacked eBay affiliate:

So for most for you, what you need is to follow a proven working system, not something that could make you money right now. (Remember the biggest money-making obstacle?)

Here are some proven working marketing systems by Marlon Sanders if you’re lack of one:

Promo Dashboard (Promo in 3 simple steps with list building)

Marketing Dashboard (Setting up your own online business like the experts)

Design Dashboard (Create amazing web pages that sell products like crazy)

Affiliate Dashboard (Launch your own affiliate program & getting streams of active affiliates)

Each of Marlon’s “Dashboard” products is a easy to follow system. I do love the 6 row of lovely icons, each icon is a single step for you to take. Easy and fun. I’m sure you’ll love them too.

Always remember you don’t need to chase the latest money-making opportunities all the time. What you need is just a system, a proven working system.

And always let me know what you think by leaving your comment below.

To your amazing success!

Secret Revealed: How One Phrase Doubled My Sales Conversion

Hi everyone,

As promised, I’m revealing the exact secret phrase on my Flip Site Buddy OTO page that doubled my conversion.

The simple powerful phrase on the top of the OTO page is…

powerful sales phrase

“Access Free Download Details At the Bottom of This Page”! That’s it!

Probably to many people’s surprise :lol:

So to have you fully understand the sales process, let me illustrate. You see, the process involves 3 basic steps: (I know I know, it’s actually far more than this 3 steps, but I’m not talking about things like list monetization and back ends here)

sales funnel

Until recently, I found something odd that I got so many support emails from people asking for the free downloads. But they were supposed to get their downloads right after they turned down the one-time-offer!

I realized some weird problems. These people opted in on the squeeze page and then closed the OTO page immediately. They just went directly to their email inbox looking for a download email. But however, I just don’t put the normal download link on the welcome email. Instead, I only sent them an email that only contains unadvertised bonus download link.

So I just added that powerful phrase on the top to remind my visitors the download details is at the bottom of the page.

You see, in this way, people HAVE TO scroll down the whole sales page to get their freebies. You just FORCE people to read your copy with this trick.

Now my result is, on average 1 out of 11 people see the offer make a purchase. Awesome, isn’t it? And if you want to promote this monster offer and make some bucks you can grab your affiliate tools here.

So what you need is to make your copy really good. When you have a high response sales copy with attractive appeal, clear bullets and strong call-to-action, you can win sales in the process with this tactic, from people who even don’t want to read your sales page at the beginning!

Thanks for reading this post, feel free as always to leave a comment :)
