PaySpree: An Affiliate Network That Pays Instant Paypal Commission On Every Product



If you advertise digital products online you are no doubt aware of the two most well-liked affiliate networks, ClickBank and PayDotCom.

Although both of these are great and I highly recommend each of them, nowadays I came across a brand new service that really caught my mind. It's called PaySpree and the cause it trapped my attention is that ALL its members get paid for their sales right away by PayPal.

Even affiliates get paid for their referred sales directly by PayPal.
I look forward to it to become quite a hit as the lure of 'instant commissions' played a big part in the huge success of products such as 7DollarSecrets and the RapidActionProfits scripts.

I've really come across products for sale that are just lists of affiliate programs that pay instant PayPal fee. And I've seen many threads in a range of internet marketing forums concerning where to find immediate commission affiliate programs. Currently there is an entire site and marketplace devoted to them.
As soon as you become a affiliate you can start promoting any product in the marketplace, and you can add your own stuff so affiliates can promote them for you. All commission payments are handled automatically by PaySpree, it sounds like a winner to me.

I've just signed up and had a look around the site and it seems pretty simple and non messy, check it out at the link below and let me know what you think:

Directory Submission Gets You Tons Of Quality - 1 Way Links

As the search engines are evolving each and every day, it's getting harder
and harder to get top search engine rankings.

The search engines now, highly favor, websites that have a large number of
quality, one way links pointing to them. Because of this, it's absolutely critical
that we consistently try to get other websites to link to us, WITHOUT us linking
back to them.

Yes, reciprocal linking is becoming less and less valuable. Submitting your
website to website directories is an excellent way to get, quality, 1 way links
pointing to your websites. You see, many of the website directories online have
a high amount of page rank and have been online for several years.
These are 2 of the most important criteria for determining what a good link
is, vs what a bad link is. These two criteria are:
  1. The age of the website linking to you
  2. The Page Rank of the website linking to you
With that said, many of these directories have both a high Page Rank AND are
old websites, giving them more authority and power in the search engines.
Not only that, but there are literally thousands of website directories on
the internet that are absolutely free for you to submit your website to! While
it does take time to find these directories and then manually fill out all of
the required criteria to submit your website, it is an excellent way to help
increase your search engine rankings.

There are some good website directory submission software products on the market.

The best of which is a product called Directory Submitter created by Brad Callen.
Esentially you simply enter your website details into the software program 1
time, and then click on any of the 1600+ website directories in the software
and it wil automatically fill in all of the submission criteria for you. Click
the submit button and then your site has been instantly added to the website
directory.
So, not only does it save you time in finding all of these directories, BUT
it saves you an incredible amount of time filling out each and every website's
submission criteria. To learn more about Directory Submitter, visit the link

But, please keep this to yourself, as I'd like to keep this our
secret weapon -:)


Enjoy!

Is PPC to CPA Dead?



With the current changes in the PPC business, many CPA marketers are throwing in the towel assuming that sending pay per click (PPC) traffic to cost per action (CPA) offers is dead and not making money.
Google Adwords is the search engine leader with over 60% of the search market making it an obvious choice as a top PPC traffic resource.
But Google Adwords has been cracking down on affiliate marketers and banning accounts that they feel do not offer a good customer experience to their searchers.
And any of us doing CPA marketing understand that a vast mass of CPA offers being promoted are not really value adding.
These mass banning started after the FTC introduced their new policy in early December 2009, to target marketers who were practicing deceiving marketing (i.e. flogs and farticles).
Many marketers lost their complete CPA businesses when Google Adwords decided to disallow their accounts, but Google Adwords is not the only pay per click search engine in city.
Even though Google Adwords controls a lion’s share of the available pay per click traffic online, there are still lots of other sources of pay per click traffic that can be bought and in many cases, at a much lower cost.
The two other major players in the PPC game are Yahoo Search Marketing and Bing Adcenter.  Even though these two pay per click sources don’t practically have as much traffic as Google Adwords, in my knowledge they do have better conversions.  Since the competition is not as much you can also pay a lower cost per conversion vs. advertising on Google Adwords.
If you take Yahoo and MSN’s search level, they stand for about 30% of the searches done on the Internet.  This is still a great amount of traffic to profit from.  Yahoo and Bing are scheduling to merge their pay per click marketing platforms, which will give Google Adwords a difficult challenge.
There are dozens of second tier pay per click search engines such as 7Search.com, Looksmart.com, Ask.com, etc. that can provide marketers with thousands of targeted prospects each and every day.
But the difficulty with the second tier search engines is that they receive their traffic from a number of traffic partner sites.  This can result in a large number of fake clicks from partner sources that are just out to steal click revenues.
These second tier search engines don’t have the sophisticated scam technology that Google Adwords has, so it is hard to decide what clicks are real and which are fraudulent when they charge your account.
The solution is to study how to pass traffic partner IDs from second tier search engines so that you can have these deceitful traffic sources shut off.  If you are disciplined enough to do this and can afford to lose some money up front to clean up the traffic, you will be left with decent converting traffic at the last part of this exercise.
PPC traffic is still one of the best converting traffic as it allows you to screen your prospects with your ads before they click and you are charged a click cost.
Although PPV traffic is also very profitable, it is now getting very competitive and profit margins are shrinking fast with PPV traffic sources.
If you want to build a successful PPC to CPA business, never allow one PPC traffic source to be more than 25% of your traffic spend. Diversify your PPC sources so that when one source disappears, you still have at least 75% of your PPC traffic.
So in conclusion, PPC to CPA is very much alive with great potential, even if you don’t rely on Google Adwords for PPC traffic.
