As you can see, I am quite scattered in how I want to make money online. But today, I received a phone call from my Neverblue’s affiliate marketing manager. We got past our introductions quickly and began talking immediately about my business and my options. I told ‘her’ that I do no want anything over saturated, but want something that has seen some decent conversions for a person just entering the CPA arena. My goal is to promote websites through PPC advertising either on web search engines or social networking sites.

She understood what I wanted and said she will send me follow-up e-mail within the day with some offerings that I should try. When I finally got the e-mail, she provided me with 4 of what she thought were good performers. These were the offerings that were recommended:

• Game On (US) – This is an online mobile gaming offer with a payout of $6.00/sale.
• FreeCollegeScholarships.net – Offers free scholarships and payout is $4.00/lead.
• Majesty Cruiselines: Bahama Cruise Vacation – $1.40/lead.
• Over40Matching.com – Obviously an over 40 dating site with a $3.00/lead.

First thing to note is that all of these offers are for US residents only. Being Canadian, I cannot market to the audience I am most comfortable with. But I am up for a challenge. I would also not promote the Majesty Cruiselines offer because of its lower lead payout. Not that I am being greedy, but if I am spending $0.35/click on PPC advertising, I will quickly earn less than my advertising expenses.

I am not interested in the dating site because it is quite saturated already. Facebook would be a great place to use PPC advertising because I can use demographic targeting. I believe Facebook frowns upon dating advertising though. I have to do more research before ruling this one out too.

Today, I will be researching Game On (US) and FreeCollegeScholarships.net and post up some details on how I am going to promote it, my keywords, and my target demographic.
