What is Pay Per Lead Affiliate Marketing?
CPA is cost per action. If that action is buying a product, then we have to get our potential customers to open their pocketbook. In today’s economic times, this is getting harder and harder. And the competition is fighting for the same customers you are.
When CPA is used, sometimes it is referring to pay per lead programs. No taking out the credit card. Not even getting a free trial that is billed monthly in 30 days, although some can be. Just get the lead and get paid.
Forget BANS Sites and Learn to Love Data
You may be a blogger. That may be where you start. You may be a PPC affiliate marketer. That could be a starting place. You may not want to get your hand dirty with all the technical details.

Clickbank as the Stock Market
I am going to let you in on something. There are a few ways you can pick a topic for a niche blog.
One is to go through your interests and what you want to learn and pick something. Then find some affiliate products that compliment that interest. Then start writing. If you are interested, than it should be easy to come up with content. This is probably the best way. Readers will notice your passion and your stake in what you have to say. You can’t go wrong with this route.
Clickbank’s New YouTube Channel
Clickbank has a new channel on YouTube. Currently there is only a screencast of the sign up process, but there should be more to come.
