4 Barely Legal Ways To Drive Traffic To Your CPA Sites
Are you running several CPA sites? To make the most profit from them, you need traffic – lots and lots of traffic. Traffic, as they say, is the lifeblood of any online enterprise. This is especially true for CPA sites where profit is directly proportional to the number of visitors generated to their pages per day.
How can you generate traffic for your CPA sites?
You know about article marketing, right? Come on! What kind of internet marketer isn’t aware of the power of article submission as a brand-establishing, link-building and traffic-generating strategy? This article won’t show traffic generating techniques as basic as article marketing.
Rather, this article will show you novel techniques on how to drive traffic to your CPA sites. Be forewarned, however! Some of these techniques aren’t ethical. They aren’t illegal, but they may challenge your sense of what is right and wrong in conducting an online business.
That being said, here are 4 powerful ways by which you can generate tons of traffic for your CPA sites:
1. Yahoo Answers. There are 2 ways by which you can utilize this fantastic website for your benefit. The first, which is the usual route that marketers take, is by finding “open” questions relevant to the niches serviced by your CPA sites. You have to answer these questions to the best of your abilities and leave your links as sources. The second can be considered gray hat. It involves the creation of 2 accounts. One account will ask a question about the niche, the other account will answer the same, and the first account will select the second account’s answer as the “Best Answer” and close the question. This way, that particular page will be forever immortalized in the annals of the World Wide Web, and your CPA sites’ links will be prominently displayed as credible destinations for people looking for related information about the subject of the question.
2. Hijacking Wikipedia. Create a Wikipedia account. Search for subjects relevant to your niches. Read their entries carefully. Try to look for information that may have been left out. Once you find such “missing piece,” create pages on your CPA sites offering such information. Add data to the Wiki entry and leave your URL as source. Having back links deposited in Wikipedia pages will provide a giant boost for your CPA sites’ page ranks!
3. “Stealing” traffic from other people’s blogs. Search for popular blogs relevant to your CPA sites’ niches. Often, entries in these blogs allow for comments from readers. Leave a comment. Make sure it’s a valid comment, as spam-looking comments are usually deleted. Leave your CPA sites’ URLs as well. This is a great way to get direct traffic (by way of the visitors who read the blog entries) and indirect traffic (by way of having a back link in a popular – and most probably a high ranking – blog).
4. Placing ads over at Craigslist and Gumtree. This strategy works for particular CPA offers only, like CPA offers from dating, moneymaking and – dare I say – gambling websites, among others. The trick – which as you’d find out later on is really a “trick” – is to go to appropriate sections of these classified ads websites. If you’re promoting dating CPA sites, go to the Personals section and pretend to be a girl looking for some male company. The click through rate of such an ad will be astronomical if you know how to use the right words. If you’re promoting moneymaking CPA sites, go to the Opportunities section and place a pseudo-recruitment ad. This tactic is not really ethical, but no one can question how effective it can be.
Indeed, these traffic-generating strategies are “barely legal.” But they are very powerful, and they can drive a significant number of visitors to your CPA sites almost instantaneously. Try them out and you can realize how profitable your CPA sites can really be.
