Of course, for a deep understanding, you need to study more materials than one article can reveal. The purpose of this article is to outline the essence and show the entire skeleton of earnings.

What is traffic arbitrage

Understanding starts with the basics.

Traffic arbitrage - This is the extraction of interested traffic (i.e., the flow of Internet users) and its direction to target sites in order to obtain conversions (sales, registrations, subscriptions or other targeted actions).

Traffic is obtained in two ways:

• With the help of paid advertising - teaser, contextual, banner, targeted.
• "Gray" methods - the creation and promotion of doorways; spam on forums, social networks, Q&A services; mass following and massliking and other methods.

Traffic can be directed by:

• In affiliate programs, CPA networks, for example;
• Directly to the Internet projects of advertisers who buy this traffic.

Ways to pay for work for an affiliate:

• Interest from the purchase of goods / services, from making a deposit, etc .;
• The fixed cost of a lead (i.e., targeted action) - for a loan, for registration, subscription, purchase, completed application, etc.
• For banner impressions or transitions (rarely).

Step-by-step guide to traffic arbitrage

The general algorithm of actions is as follows:

1. Niche selection
2. Choosing an offer and an affiliate program
3. Study of the target audience
4. Selecting a traffic source
5. First arbitrage profit and results analytics
6. Optimization of income from affiliate programs
7. Scaling.

Where to start in traffic arbitrage

You need to start by choosing a niche.

A niche is a general direction in which different affiliate programs and offers can work (offers from advertisers with a payment method, see above). It is also called "vertical".

The main directions in which affiliates earn:

1. Product (sale of goods), for example, a purely commodity network (see my review at the link);
2. Online games (pay for registration, active player, money contributions to the game or other actions);
3. Finance (loans, borrowings, investments);
4. Infobusiness (selling online courses, trainings, recruiting subscribers to e-mail newsletters);
5. Gambling - casino, poker, sports betting;
6. Education (they are also called essay, edu-affiliate programs) - academic work such as coursework and diploma to order.
7. Dating - dating sites, including for intimate purposes.
8. Pharmaceuticals, care products - medicines, dietary supplements, weight loss products, muscle recruitment, hair growth, male and female sex enhancement, health and beauty products, and so on.
9. SMS subscriptions and Wapclick. Connected to the mobile internet.

How to make the right choice for a beginner? The first– always focus on what is closer to you... If you do not understand the financial topic, it is better not to go there right away. Ideal if you have deep knowledge of the niche. If you love online games, then you can easily advertise them, since you relate to the target audience of players and understand their needs. For example, I can't tell a good game from a bad one at all.

Second- this is niche relevance and scale... The wider your target audience you can reach, the better. For example, everyone needs clothes. A huge number of people want to lose weight quickly and easily. These are mainly women of different ages, but men sometimes really need to get in shape. Want to tweak your shape? Then you know how painful this problem is for your target audience, and you understand how you can hook it.

Have you decided on a niche for traffic arbitrage? Let's move on to choosing an offer and a PP.

How to choose an offer and an affiliate program

An affiliate network can contain only 1 offer or be a CPA network that contains many offers from different advertisers. you can read the link, and we go further. Shows excellent results

Cpad.pro - free and very valuable service for selecting offers. Let's go to the offers - categories and select the category in the left column that we decided on when looking for a niche for making money on arbitrage.

The table shows the number of goals that need to be achieved in order to earn money, the number of CPA networks that advertise offers and the date of information update. If the offer is presented in many affiliate networks, then it has high competition. The ideal case is when the offer is exclusive, that is, it is presented in one CPA network.

Let's click on one of them. A page with a description of the offer, a preview of the landing pages to which we will drive traffic, and goals will open.

So, according to the table, the PP accepts only Ukrainian traffic. There are two payment schemes here - CPS (cost-per-sale, or cost per sale as a percentage of the price for a product) and CPL (payment for a lead). To get to know the offer better, in the “PP” column, click on the name of the affiliate program. A more detailed description of it and the “Register” button leading to the website of the CPA network or affiliate will open. Study it, see the functionality that the PP offers for payments, etc.

What to look for when choosing an arbitration offer?

Seasonality... Are there any declines in interest in the product throughout the year? For example, affiliate programs for writing student papers make good money only in the fall or spring, and the rest of the time there is a decline in interest among the target audience. Women lose weight more actively in the spring by summer, so it is most profitable to advertise funds at this time of the year, although there is always demand.

If you start to drain traffic during the off-season, you may not achieve the desired profit or even lose your investment in advertising. You can analyze seasonal fluctuations in interest using the Yandex tool Wordstat - “Query history” in the search engine. Just enter the query that your target audience asks most often when searching for a product, and be sure to specify the region. For example, upon request “Buy a swimsuit” we will see the following picture:

Demand.There is such a thing as a squeezed offer. This is the offer that was very popular and profitable, and all affiliates poured into it. As a result, all traffic was squeezed out, people's interest dropped, and the offer became unprofitable. So it was with the talking hamster, who had set the teeth on edge.

Another example: tear-resistant tights... The screenshot below shows that in the fall of 2016 there was a sharp jump in demand for them, and by the end of the year a decline began. Those affiliates who caught the trend at the stage of growth and peak of popularity earned more than others. If there is a downward trend in the number of requests, you should think about choosing another offer.

Exclusivity.We talked about this a little higher. Let's repeat to consolidate: the fewer CPA networks advertise an offer, the lower the competition for it. It is good if it is presented only in one network or in several. It's bad when there are a dozen or more of them. Exclusivity is not the most important indicator. Don't discount seasonality and demand.

Indicators, offer rating... Many CPA networks indicate the conversion from site visits to leads, the percentage of confirmations of applications, hold and other information. Hold is the time during which you cannot receive the money you earn. The larger it is, the worse it is for a beginner. For example, if the hold is a whole month, then you will have to wait for this period until you are paid. If your budget is limited and you need to urgently reinvest profits, a long hold is not suitable for you. Here is an example of a description of programs in the very popular CPA network Admitad:

Note the lifetime of the Cookie... The bigger it is, the better. and I have already talked about its special importance.

How to choose an affiliate program or CPA network for traffic arbitrage?

Look carefully:

1. Reviews on the Internet... If you have serious complaints about technical support, payments, fraud, think 100 times before working with this office. The most informative and truthful reviews are supported by screenshots of income statistics. Although here too Photoshop can play a cruel joke. The responses cannot be 100% trusted, but if they are left on the forums by their inveterate participants with a long lifespan, then it is highly likely to be true (although it also happens that reviews are paid by the owners of the software).

   
   

2. How long has a CPA network or affiliate network been operating on the market?... Beginners should not be trusted, especially at first. Look towards old and “bearded” affiliate programs. They are shaking for their reputation and will not allow themselves to be deceived by partners. Veterans that all affiliates know about: Admitad, M1-Shop, Ad1, Actionpay, KMA.
3. Tools... The affiliate toolkit is designed to track traffic flows. The more detailed the analytics is in the partner's personal account, the more effectively you can improve the advertising campaign to increase profits. So, in a good affiliate program there is a section with statistics of conversions / orders. In addition, the ability to create a SubID should be available in the affiliate program - this is a parameter that is added to your affiliate links. With its help, you can, for example, track which banner or ad had conversions and leads, and which did not bring income at all. Unprofitable advertising campaigns and promotional materials should be removed so that they do not eat up your budget. Other important analytics tools in traffic arbitrage: postback URL, traffic back.
4. Minimum withdrawal amount... Match it with your budget. For example, if you are ready to invest $ 100, and the minimum withdrawal amount is $ 150, then you can spend all the advertising money without reaching the minimum income for withdrawing money from the affiliate program. Let's say, if you break out, then for $ 100 spent you will have $ 100 in income. You may not be paid this money. In general, it is better to expect that in case of failure, you can lose 50% of the invested budget and even more. Always consider the minimum wage for withdrawal.
   
5. Payment terms... See which payment systems and cards you can withdraw money to, and how often payments are made.
6. Traffic types... So, you have chosen an offer and an affiliate program in which you plan to earn by arbitrage. But there is another nuance: it may have prohibited traffic sources. For example, some prohibit contextual advertising on the brand, motivated traffic, e-mail newsletters, etc. Some people don't like that their product is being advertised on social media. If you, contrary to the prohibitions, start to drain traffic from prohibited sources, you will not be paid and your account may be banned forever.

   

Choosing traffic sources for arbitrage

Before choosing, we pay attention to:

1. Offer... Thus, serious financial offers should not be advertised in teaser networks: there will be a lot of useless traffic and very few leads. Products that have just entered the market and are not yet familiar to the consumer will not appear in contextual advertising in search results (because it is corny that they are not yet requested in search results).
2. Source complexity... You will study Yandex.Direct for a month or even more before you start. It is better to choose simple methods of traffic extraction, and move from them to more complex ones. Ideally, those that can be learned in a day or two.

Types of traffic sources:

• Advertising in groups, communities of social networks, on YouTube channels;
• Teaser networks;
• Banner networks;
• Targeted advertising;
• Contextual;
• Advertising in mailing lists;
• Doorway traffic;
• Spam via e-mail, forums, social networks, etc .;
• Motivated traffic;

Arbitration of traffic through social networks and YouTube channels

Perhaps the easiest way for newbies to get started is to buy ad space from page admins with fewer subscribers. One Vkontakte publication, for example, will cost 50-200 rubles. You don't need to take more expensive pages first. Train on small ones until you fill your hand. Take offers with low cost per lead and product itself.

So, you should not immediately sell iPhones with a small budget: you will merge it without even collecting enough statistics for analysis. Try to start with simple offers, where there is payment for registration, subscription to a newsletter, filling out a questionnaire, and more. Games, dating sites, info-business with payment for subscribers, etc. are suitable. The budget for the start is preferably from 5000 rubles.

There are a lot of nuances in making money on arbitrage using posts, but the general algorithm of actions is as follows:

Teaser networks

A huge number of sites are collected in teaser networks. They contain blocks with teasers - ads consisting of a small picture and a short text.

Examples of teasers, and how to make them yourself,.

Scheme of your actions for arbitration:

1. Choose a teaser network and register.
2. Create teasers, add them to the network, add affiliate links to them. At the same time, pre-landing pages (or, more simply, landing sites) are often used to whet the desire of visitors to buy a product before they go to the product site. Blogs with fake (fake) reviews are often made as pre-landers.
3. Configure ad display.
4. Launch advertising and monitor its promotion, statistics in the affiliate program and in analytics systems such as Yandex.Metrica and Google Analytics.
5. As you work, clean up ineffective sites that do not bring profit.

The advantage of teasers is the low cost per click, which starts from 10 kopecks. However, the quality of traffic suffers: bots will click on your budget, so you need to remove sites if you notice empty clicks and zero conversions.

Examples of teaser networks:

• Oblivochki.biz - a teaser with a lot of positive reviews from affiliates and tools for more or less accurate targeting. Click from 70 kopecks.
• Teasernet- geo-targeting, a wide range of topics, clicks from 10 kopecks. A very large and old network.
• BodyClick- there are sites of any subject, and in addition to teasers, here you can advertise with banners, contextual ads, clickander.

Banner networks

With their help, you can place banners on sites of various topics. Banners differ from teasers in a wider variety of sizes and formats, lack of text. That is, it's just a picture or animation. Ready-made banners can be taken in affiliate programs or made by yourself, and then placed in banner networks. The most prominent representative of them is Rotaban.

Targeted advertising

Targeted advertising helps to most accurately target advertising to the consumer. Not only gender / age / geography are taken into account, but also marital status, interests, education, life position, the presence of children, and so on. What you enter on your social media profile is used by advertisers to show you relevant ads. The information that users indicate about themselves can be used to accurately hit the target (“target” from English - “target”).

Target VK... It is possible to show teaser blocks with a small picture on the left for users on Vk.com or promote full-fledged posts in their news feeds. You can create a button with a call to action “Buy”, “Go”, “Join” and more. There is a "Carousel" format, where in one ad in the news feed you can create several cards, which consist of a photo, a link to the site and a "Buy" button (or with other text). Retargeting tool available.

Mytarget... Using the service, you can arbitrate on Vkontakte, on Mail.ru sites, on Odnoklassniki. Target mobile or desktop users, advertise mobile apps, games. There are more than 15 types of targeting in Meiterget, including by income level. There is retargeting. Differs in strict moderation of advertising, so not all offers are accepted, especially “gray” ones, such as weight loss and others.

Facebook... Perhaps this is the coolest targeted advertising tool. With it, you can go not only to the CIS market, but also to the bourgeoisie - to pour on affiliate programs around the world and receive income in dollars. True, advertising costs are also higher here. Trying to push a “gray” offer into Facebook is not worth it: moderation will not miss it. Although some cunning affiliate marketers do manage.

The advantage of Facebook is that it has a huge number of tools for retargeting, tracking and optimizing traffic, there are split tests, as well as the most detailed targeting (it seems that FB monitors its users at every step).

It is better for a beginner to start getting acquainted with targeted advertising with Vkontakte: here is the simplest and most intuitive interface. Facebook has crazy functionality, so let's leave it for a snack.

contextual advertising

Context leaders are Yandex.Direct and Google Adwords. Advertising blocks can be seen both when searching in Yandex and Google, and when visiting sites.

The way to find the target audience. So, in the target for search, we set the characteristics of people who, in our opinion, may be interested in our offer.

In a context, the opposite: we only need to indicate which search queries people can search for our offer. Of course, here you can also define the geography of impressions, but interests, age, marital status, etc. are optional. So we will find out exactly what a person wants from his search query.

To make money on contextual advertising in traffic arbitrage, you need deep knowledge, otherwise you will drive yourself into the negative and be disappointed. Ideally, take a couple of courses from the setup wizards. But even if you don't become an affiliate marketer, PPC specialists are a highly paid job, so don't be stingy about spending money on education.

Advertising in e-mail newsletters in arbitration

The scheme is simple:

• you need to look for mailing list authors on topics that are interesting to your target audience.
• Then buy from them sending a sales letter with a link to subscribers;
• Analyze the results, choose the best envelope e-mails, and resend similar advertisements.

Doorway traffic

A doorway is a site that is automatically created using programs to promote low-frequency queries. As a rule, such sites are of no value to either the user or the search engine. However, they bring traffic to the owner, which is then converted into income from affiliate programs. The cost of doorways is limited to a one-time purchase of software for their generation, as well as payment for hosting and domain. Sometimes they also buy links to speed up the promotion.

Doorways often “die”: they are banned by search engines, so constant work is needed to create new packs. Unlike sites for people (SOMs), which live for years, doorways may not last even a few months.

In the bourgeoisie, it is popular to use doorways to drain traffic to pharma affiliates, essay affiliates, casinos, poker, and sports betting. Exhaust - hundreds and thousands of dollars.

You can read more about traffic arbitrage using doorways on Wikipedia. And we move on.

Spam methods in traffic arbitrage

These include:

• E-mail spam;
• Spam on forums;
• In services, question-answer;
• On social networks: mass following, massliking, sending private messages, spam in publics, etc.

Not all affiliate networks accept spam traffic, and you can even get banned for it and lose the money you earn. Before you start making money on spam, ask the technical support of the affiliate program if you can use these methods to attract traffic.

The advantage is that you can do spam manually and don't pay for traffic at all, i.e. Another option is to buy a program that will spam for you automatically and much faster. The cost pays off pretty quickly with the right approach. The main thing is to know the technology of traffic extraction.

Motivated traffic

Motivated traffic is traffic that you receive by agreement with people.

1. For example, you need a person to register in the game, and you will receive 50 rubles for registration in an affiliate program.
2. You go to special services (axles), where for 10 rubles a person will register using your link or perform another required action.
3. You are in profit for 40 rubles.

Simple, outrageously. But the catch is that in most cases, affiliate programs do not recognize motivated traffic and severely ban dishonest affiliates. Although there are options where it is allowed. Check cpad.pro for up-to-date offers.

SEO and traffic arbitrage

SEO is a softer way to get traffic with almost no investment. To or to the site, you only need to pay for hosting and domain. By the way, you can get free hosting for 3 months with a 2-level domain for 1 year. Moreover, this hosting is of high quality, because I myself have been using it for many years. This blog is on it. If you want to start with no investment at all within 3 months, I will tell you in this post how you can get this privilege for free and without a trick;).

General algorithm of actions:

• We register a domain and buy hosting;
• Choose the engine on which the site will function (WordPress, for example);
• Installing the template;
• We fill with articles optimized for these keys (unique - you can write / rewrite yourself or hire specialists);
• We are promoting;
• After a while, traffic starts to flow, which you will monetize with banners, links and other promotional materials from affiliate networks.

The main thing is to immediately choose a niche and see if there are affiliate programs for it. The income will go in six months to a year, when enough traffic from search engines begins to flow.

Setting up statistics and optimizing conversions

At this step, many merge, go with the remnants of the advertising budget back to work for hire. That is, they choose an offer, an affiliate program, start pouring traffic, go into the red and that's it! Then they shout that arbitration is a scam and there is no money here. Although they were one step away from success.

Good afternoon, dear readers!

I know, I know ... I promised you to review the next CPA network, but plans suddenly changed - the second laptop, along with Dasha, "went to rest" in the village. And on this I, as I already said, have terrible problems with the sound driver (or the settings ... fig knows), so, unfortunately, I cannot please you with a video review today. A little later (when Dasha arrives). So…

The topic of today's article is “ Traffic arbitrage". From this article you will learn what traffic arbitrage is, where to start making money on arbitrage, and what you need to know if you intend to make money on traffic reselling in the future.

In general, this article will be useful both for those who are engaged and for those who are used to working with affiliate programs of the classic format (affiliate program for the sale of information courses, webinars, trainings, affiliate programs of various services, software, etc.)

How was mathematics in your school? Hopefully good, because today we have to play with the numbers a little. So…

Earnings on traffic arbitrage

What is traffic arbitrage? I am sure you have already come across this newfangled phrase. If you tried to work with CPA affiliates or SMS paysites, you faced 100%. I came across this concept about a year ago.

In fact, the definition is quite simple ...

Traffic arbitrage - this is earnings on the reselling of traffic when you buy traffic (visitors) in one place at a cheaper price and sell it in another place at a higher price.

Didn't make it clear, right? Let me explain with an example ...

For example, I register in a teaser network, create an advertising campaign for the sale of a product or service, set it up carefully, put 300 rubles into my account and click on the "Run" button.

Then, of course, I get clicks on my referral link, several sales and, as a result, I earn 1000 rubles. As an example ... My net profit in this case is equal to 700 rubles. So now get the gist:

I bought visitors to an affiliate site ON THE TEASER NETWORK at a cheaper price (usually 1-2 rubles per click) and sold (directed) these visitors to some relatively expensive PARTNER GOODS OR SERVICE.

Since my profit was 700 rubles, you understand that I sold this traffic at a much higher price. In this case, the cost of a click can even be calculated ...

Suppose I bought clicks in a teaser network for 2 rubles and got 150 clicks for 300 rubles. Is it logical? It is logical. Suppose I was selling such a weight loss course (corny, I know) and received 2 orders and 500 rubles in commission. Now we can calculate the price of our click with you already from sales. To do this, we simply divide 1000 rubles by 150 clicks. We get about 6.7 rubles. That is, we bought traffic for 2 rubles, and sold it for 6.7 rubles. Not bad…

As I said in the video tutorials on CPA networks review, this figure - 6.7 rubles can be called the ECPC indicator, that is, the average income per click.

This is a simple scheme for making money on traffic arbitrage.

A couple more examples of traffic arbitrage

• 1000 impressions \u003d 2 rubles
• 200 rubles \u003d 100,000 impressions
• 100,000 impressions \u003d 200 clicks
• 200 clicks \u003d 20 registrations
• 1 registration \u003d 30 rubles
• 20 registrations \u003d 600 rubles
• Result: 200 rubles were spent. Earned 600 rubles. Net profit \u003d 400 rubles
• EcPC \u003d 3 rubles (that is, 1 click brought me 3 rubles)

• Advertising for 10,000 people. Cost - 3000 rubles
• The cost of the course is 3000 rubles (my commission \u003d 1500 rubles)
• 900 people clicked on the link
• Booked a course - 8 people \u003d 1200 rubles
• Net profit \u003d 9000 rubles
• Divide 3000 rubles by 900 clicks
• 1 click \u003d 3.3 rubles
• Divide 12,000 rubles by 900 clicks
• 1 click \u003d 13.3 rubles
• EcPC \u003d 13.3 rubles (that is, 1 click brought me an average of 13.3 rubles)

In principle, traffic arbitrage includes not only teaser ads, but also contextual, banner ads, etc. It can even be safely attributed to making money on arbitration. It does not include only earnings on affiliate programs with the help of your site, if visitors go to your site from search engines on request. If paid advertising (banner, teaser, etc.) brings visitors to the site, then this is again traffic arbitrage.

Here is an example of one of my ads that works in targeted ads on the social network Vkontakte. Simply put, this is VK traffic arbitrage with payment for impressions.

One more screen, but here I pay not for impressions, but for clicks (10 rubles per click).

And here is an example of traffic arbitrage in a teaser network. It is clear that here you pay per click on the teaser.

Today, traffic arbitrage is actively used in CPA affiliates. Many professional webmasters are engaged in investing at first a small amount - 1000-2000 rubles. They earn 2-3 times more. Part of the money is withdrawn and live on it, and the rest is invested in advertising again, thereby gradually increasing their advertising budget and earnings. How to get started when working with traffic arbitrage.

Where to start and what is important to know!

Many newbies who are just getting started often simply drain their entire advertising budget. They do not know where to send traffic and how to do it correctly. Why? There are dozens of reasons for this:

1) Initially, the wrong offer was selected (affiliate program)

3) Certain affiliate products and services can only be advertised on certain advertising platforms, and a newbie, as a rule, does not know where and what to advertise

4) Where they are needed, landing sites (landing pages) are not used

5) Incorrectly targeted audience and incorrectly configured other targeting options

This is just a small part of the reasons that can seriously undermine your desire to make money on traffic arbitrage.

In fact, beginners have hundreds of various questions, ignorance of the answer to which leads to loss of money and, as a rule, to frustration. Personally, and helped me to understand many issues.

I am sure that these courses will help you to solve the main part of your problems.

In general, at the beginning of work, you need to choose the right affiliate offer (affiliate program). You don't need to immediately register with dozens of affiliate programs. Better to concentrate on 2-3.

And only then, on the basis of this analysis, select sites for advertising.

To be honest, it's almost impossible to launch a successful advertising campaign right away. You always have to test: change the title, subtitle, banner, link to the landing page (landing page), adjust the targeting parameters, etc. Many newbies simply do not have the patience for this, and they give up halfway through. Very sorry.

In my memory there are several campaigns that I reworked 20-30 times before they started to bring me profit. Yes, I lost a couple of thousand rubles until I went to zero and started receiving income. But this is a necessary measure. Now, of course, it is much easier. There is already some experience and vision.

Finally ...

That's all for today ... And finally, I have prepared a video for you to consolidate the material we have already covered.

I look forward to your comments, questions and additions. And of course, your likes, if the article was useful to you.

Best regards, Your friend and assistant Bulat Makseev

Recently it has become increasingly popular. While great, it attracts a large number of newbies. Not all of them have enough knowledge for a good start, so they often try to find step-by-step instructions that can lead them to their first money. Let's try to form the main stages of working with traffic and show new arrivals the direction of movement towards success and profit.

First of all, you should know that traffic is referred to as visitors to the resource who, having seen the advertisement, became interested in it and followed the link. The whole point of arbitration is to attract and purchase traffic and send it to the desired product offer. The affiliate receives a reward for the completed target action. The difference between the cost of traffic and the reward received is the earnings.

How to start a beginner?

The first thing a newbie should do on the way to making their first money in arbitrage is to register with. They help to facilitate cooperation between affiliates and advertisers. Affiliate program networks provide technical support to publishers, provide promotional materials and tools for tracking statistics. The choice must be approached responsibly, you should not pay attention to little-known affiliate programs, before starting work, it is important to find reviews and recommendations regarding cooperation with a particular network.

Admitad is one of the top affiliate networks, it has long had a reputation for being a reliable service. Therefore, a beginner should start his way to arbitration by registering in this particular network. It offers a huge catalog of offers for every taste, including exclusive ones, a large selection of tools to increase conversion, instant payouts and full-fledged webmaster support.

Registration in Admitad takes place in three stages:

1. The first stage consists of filling out a questionnaire, in which you should indicate: name; the status in which the work will be performed (natural or legal person); login and password; as well as contact details.
2. The next stage involves obtaining information about the publisher's sites and the proposed methods of work. You can select any type of site and fill in the information about it. Choosing a category suggests indicating which of them is closest to a novice webmaster and which one will be more interesting to work with.

After the account is activated, you need to confirm the ownership of the advertising platform. The confirmation is quick and in this situation with the VK group it only requires logging into the owner's account. This completes the registration of the webmaster, and he gets into the working area of \u200b\u200bthe Admitad.

How to choose a CPA offer?

After registration has been successfully completed, you should proceed to the selection of an offer. An offer is an advertiser's offer, by advertising which the publisher attracts traffic and earns income. It is believed that the easiest way for a beginner to make their first money on a product, that is, offers offering to buy a specific product.

In order to get into the list of offers, go to the "Affiliate Programs" tab in the top panel. The review will be presented with a complete list, from which, using the available filters, you need to select the appropriate one. The sorting tool is located on the right and provides a drop-down menu with criteria.

1. The rating shows how popular and effective the offer is, the higher the rating and the number of stars, the more conversions it takes.
2. Есрс - an indicator of the effectiveness of a click, the cost of one click. It is averaged, and shows how much income an affiliate can expect. The higher Есрс, the better.

The most effective and simple ways of advertising are contextual advertising and publishing on social networks, it is with them that beginners are advised to start.

contextual advertising

Contextual advertising is advertising that is displayed on a site with a relevant topic or in search results for relevant queries. It is believed that this type of advertising is the most effective, due to the fact that ad impressions are made to users who were initially interested in something like that. Such advertising campaigns give quick results, do not require large expenditures, have flexible settings, a large set of analytics tools, information content and a convenient format. Each search engine has a service for creating contextual advertising campaigns.

Google adwords

• allows you to get the most interested users in a very short time;
• provides a choice of resource for broadcasting an ad;
• low cost per click.

To create and configure an advertising campaign, you need to create an account with Google, then create the ad itself already in AdWords and start setting up. When making settings, you should be aware that the largest traffic flow will be given by the type of company on the search and media networks at the same time. If required, you can customize targeting. Additional settings allow you to limit the display time, as well as control and optimize budget consumption.

Yandex. Direct

Contextual advertising system from Yandex (article -). It has many advantages along with its opponent. Creation of an advertising campaign is also not difficult even for beginners. Full access to the account and the implementation of total control over the results of impressions makes it possible to adjust the ad at any time. Targeting settings, tracking and optimization of budget expenditures, a huge assortment of analytics and performance evaluation tools.

To set up an advertising campaign, Yandex has developed a setup wizard that performs the necessary settings step by step, prompting the user to take the required action. Allows you to create blacklists, that is, a list of sites where the ad will not be broadcast. It also asks for the insertion of plus-words, which are key queries for displaying the current ad and the entire ad will be guided by them.

These are the main most well-known services aimed at working with contextual advertising and do not require professional skills to use. Besides them, there are many more similar resources. For example, Digly and Aory are also geared towards the complete newcomer to PPC advertising.

Advertising in public

Most often, newbies ask the question of how to start arbitration with a small amount, experienced arbitrageurs in their cases give direction towards social networks. It is with publications in VK and Facebook groups that it is advised to start mastering arbitration with small budgets.

This can be done by contacting the public administrators directly and ordering advertising. Before choosing a group for publication, you should carefully study the statistics of visits and group activity. There are pubs with a large number of wound up participants, the activity in which is zero, there will be no sense in placing ads in them. It is better to choose a small group, but with good activity, likes and discussions. Also, by contacting directly, the webmaster runs the risk of running into an unscrupulous owner who, having accepted the payment, will not publish an advertising post.

To avoid such situations, it is worth contacting special services and exchanges aimed at working with advertising on social networks. Each network has its own service for creating advertising, for example, advertising on Odnoklassniki is created through Target.Mail.ru, all other popular networks have their own built-in advertising exchanges in groups, as well as tools for creating targeted advertising. These services have all the options for customizing and selecting the target audience for displaying ads. But it should be remembered that currently the requirements for the offers that can be advertised have become more stringent, especially for the product.

Hello, friends. In today's article, we will take a closer look at another type of earnings on the Internet, which is called traffic arbitrage.

Perhaps, somewhere on the Internet, you have already come across such a concept as traffic arbitrage, and you know that you can make money using this method. But not every newbie understands the essence of this earnings, and therefore many remain unanswered to the question of what traffic arbitrage is.

By the way, I did not mention this method in the article in which I listed the main sources of income on the Internet. But I didn't mention it for the reason that traffic arbitrage is closely related to affiliate programs, and I have already spoken about PP. In general, traffic arbitrage is a method that helps to make money on affiliate programs, and this is the method that will be discussed in today's article.

Firstly, I would like to advise you to watch a whole training video course on traffic arbitrage from Andrey Zolotarev ON THIS PAGE... This is probably the best CPA course to date. It is not for nothing that wherever the word CPA sounds, the name Andrey sounds there.

What is traffic arbitrage

To make it easier for you to understand what I'm talking about, I'll start by answering the question of what traffic arbitrage is. In general, it is rather difficult to explain what it is in simple language, but I will try. So, traffic arbitrage is buying traffic (visitors) on various sites and redirecting this traffic to affiliate programs.

Is it really possible to buy traffic? - you ask. Yes, but don't think that this is something supernatural, as buying traffic means placing ads on various sites. The most popular form of advertising for arbitrage is teasers. What kind of advertising is this, I think you know. It is a small but eye-catching picture with a catchy headline.

Teasers are good because this is the cheapest type of advertising, but some use contextual advertising to make money.

You probably met them on various sites, and perhaps even clicked on such advertising, and in 99% of cases you followed the affiliate link, where you were offered to either buy something, or register in some game or something else. So this is the real traffic arbitrage.

Affiliate programs for making money on traffic arbitrage

Before I describe in detail how to make money on traffic arbitrage, I will first tell you about which affiliate programs are most often used to make money on it.

I have already given you all the necessary information on traffic arbitrage, so the time has come to give instructions on how to make money on it.

What we need in order to make money in traffic arbitrage:

After that, you just have to wait for your teasers to start showing on the webmasters' sites and visitors start clicking on them, performing any actions or buying goods.

By the way, experienced affiliate marketers also use a landing page (among affiliates, landing pages are also called a pad), on which an affiliate link is placed, i.e. By clicking on the teaser, the visitor first goes to your landing page, and from you to the affiliate program. I won't argue, but there is a popular belief that landing pages help to increase sales and the number of actions taken.

I also had to deal with arbitration, but I tried this method not for the sake of making money, but rather for the sake of interest. My investments were only 100 rubles, which I managed to increase to 200 rubles. After I had withdrawn this money, I again launched the advertising campaign, and again increased this amount by 2 times, after which I abandoned this activity, withdrawing the money.

Nuances in traffic arbitrage

You may think that arbitrage is a fairly easy way to make money, but it is not, and there are many nuances here. There are very big risks of wasting money and not making anything. Yes, with a competent approach, you can make very good money in arbitrage, for example, experienced arbitrageurs with a good budget earn tens and hundreds of thousands every day.

But the beginner succeeds in this only in isolated cases. In arbitrage, click conversion plays a very important role. It is believed that the higher the conversion of clicks, the higher the conversion of sales will be, and in order to increase it, you need to be able to create effective teasers. Plus, every teaser needs to be tested so that only the best are shown.

Therefore, if you are suddenly attracted by this type of earnings, then I recommend that you study the topic of traffic arbitrage thoroughly, since the information that I gave in this article talks about arbitrage in general terms, and it is not enough.

That's all for me, I wish you luck.

We have released a new book, "Content Marketing on Social Media: How to Get Into the Heads of Subscribers and Fall in Love with Your Brand."

Traffic arbitrage is the redirection of targeted traffic purchased as cheaply as possible to affiliate programs or various resources for financial gain.

Most modern business projects are built on the principle of reselling a product or service. They increase the starting price and make a profit. Traffic arbitrage can be compared to going to the market. When you buy a bag of potatoes from a wholesaler, you retail at a nearby market. But the doubled price still attracts many customers. They do not know that somewhere it is possible to buy a product cheaper. Or let's draw a parallel with cryptocurrencies. You could buy bitcoin for $ 1000 in 2013, and in 4 years get a capital multiplied 17 times. The product is the same, the place of sale has not changed, but the price increases over time.
