5 Minutes to Increased Affiliate Profits
If your running any kind of affiliate offer, you should always be looking for ways to increase your profits. The usual things to focus on are ad copy, landing page, ad placement, quality score, and the list goes on. All those things must be done to max your profits but I think many marketers don’t realize you can simply find a higher payout to improve your bottom line.
When I first started in affiliate marketing I only knew of Commission Junction and Google Adsense. Most of the offers I tried on CJ paid a % of the sale. The only way to make serious cash was to make tons of sales. Luckily I learned about a CPA (Cost Per Action) network called Azoogle Ads. I was shocked to see how much they would pay if I got a lead or sold a product. Unlike CJ, Azoogle Ads gives a flat payment for each lead or sale you generate. For example if you promoted their free Blockbuster offer awhile back you could be earning over $40 a lead.
After finding Azoogle Ads I learned there are lots of CPA networks out there and they all have varying payouts even on the exact same offers. At the time I was running an offer with a $20 payout. I joined a few CPA networks to see if anyone had a higher payout. I found one paying $25 on the exact same offer. I just switched my links to the new network and my profits jumped by 25% over night!
You are throwing money away if you don’t compare payouts from all the networks. You will be surprised at the different payouts. By joining lots of networks you can quickly compare payouts on any offer you are going promote. If you apply to a network and don’t hear anything back in a few days, be sure to call to get your application approved quickly.

I consider CPA a type of affiliate marketing since affiliate marketing is just the sharing of revenue between a merchant and a publisher.
Merchants pay you for leads just like they pay you for getting a sale.
