Any Succes With Pay-per-lead Have you made any money with this type of advertising?

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anybody has had any success with this type of advertising. I have run ads like this on my site before but I've never made any money from them. The trouble is, people might <- snipped -> and check out the website. They might even look around and find something they are interested in. But almost always, they don't buy something on that particular visit. They usually would just come back to that website at a later time to buy whatever they want. If they do that, they skip my in the process, so I get no commission. But the advertiser gets free advertising.}

I have never worked with this kind of advertising before, but I must say, it does seem like it wouldn't work nearly as well as pay-per-click! If I were to be on a website and click on an ad, I wouldn't buy something just then as you had said, I would wait until a more suitable time and wouldn't even remember about the website that directed me there.

CPALead based offers are quite cheating cause many times affiliate marketer offers something for free or gives free access to something but those offers are limited to some countries. and this is what happens with CPAlead most of time. If you take a look at the sites which are offering cpalead based offers are restricting their services to take offers of cpalead. For example, feedvault is the one which started to offer feed submission on that basis. But it didn't worked out that way and many people from around the world failed to get offers of CPALead and that way they got restricted to the services. And this is why i prefer not to have CPAlead offers.

Was my post deleted? Why was it deleted without notice? I simply expressed my small success with CPAlead.as for mahesh2k:On my website I have my widgets set so that if someone from another country can't get access because no surveys are available it will simple just let them through.

You added affiliate link which is not allowed here on Xisto. I guess you know this rule.

Maybe you're doing that for showing people about this. But many sites are restricting access to say some freebie or forum registration for CPALead ads. This is not good especially in case of forum access. Imagine if Xisto starts CPALead offer compulsory for newbies, how many will pass through ?

This is the reason CPAlead type of sites are going to lose more visitors than they get if they restrict people to such extent. I can understand about some warez sites doing that but now i have seen forums also doing the same which is not at all worth it. And even if we say members from these countries can't sign up to these offers or are not allowed to register if they can't register on CPALead then this is the issue with CPALead promoting technique that people are adopting for the promotion. I digress from hurting traffic.

CPALead is one of the most annoying things I have ever encountered on the web. When I think that I have found something that I have been searching for, one of those CPALead thingies pop up out of nowhere asking me to fill out a survey. My guess is that CPALead became popular after people starting abusing it on facebook with all of these fan pages that require you to fill out a survey befor you can see something that was not worth your time.

I hate CPA Lead offers because they are intrusive. They completely break away the feeling of "choice" you usually have when visiting a site. Instead of being able to choose if and how you want to support the website, you are being forced to use their method. To me, this means the site is not reliable; if it was, they would be able to live without using such an annoying method.On the same token, I would never use them on my site for the same reason. I know there are a lot of people who also will leave websites as soon as they find out they are forced to do certain things just to be a reader.

Well you guys are irritated cause you're on consumer end. In contrast to my previous post let me see things this way. If you're affiliate marketer what will you do ? Definitely you'll sign up for CPALead and will show ads to people or geographic area where there is more traffic. So i don't blame those facebook ads or sites with CPALead. It's about money that comes from irritation or annoyance or desperatation of some other people. Like you and me, these marketers are feeding on needs of some people so yes, it may be annoying but it's business.Coming back to topic, Cost per lead based model is worthy and profitable if we know about it. We need to know where to pitch the content and how to earn from it. I'm using two CPL based networks. One is affiliater and another is azoogle ads. These type of marketing does take time and annoy people. But it pays off handsomely :D
