Can anyone get me into the big mainstream CPA networks?
 

I use to promote mainstream years and years ago (azoogleads and such) but since then I have moved 100% of my interests into adult. So I don't have a solid mainstream network behind me to apply to get into some of the bigger CPA networks.

I have had great success as an affiliate in adult (can provide stats if needed) and would like to carry it onto mainstream without building up a network FIRST. My focus is SEO so I would much rather login, find some good CPA offers, and build around them.

I know that it is pretty easy to get in with a referral so I was hoping I could find someone to vouch for me so that I can get into a couple. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. :thumbsup

This is what I told reps from a couple of CPA networks over the phone, and they told me that wasn't good enough and declined my application.

I know some guys over at azoogleads currently... Marc, Moufid, and/or Jeff Clark ring a bell? If you worked with them in the past you could hit any of them up. If not, drop me an email or ICQ me and I'm sure I could at least get you an email introduction :)

Yeah I remember they were very picky years ago when I got in. Was hoping it had become easier. :(

None ring a bell, I would have to pull up some ancient emails to even find out who my rep was back then. Thanks for the offer, I will email you shortly. :thumbsup

No problem :) Marc is now the VP of Ad Sales for Epic Advertising (AzoogleAds is now a division of Epic). I worked with him for a couple years while he was the VP of Marketing for Singlesnet.com.

I have a lot of mainstream contacts so if there's any other ad houses you're interested in, let me know and I can tell you if I know anybody over there. I can also give you a run down on who to stay away from :P

If you have a domain with at least something on it, I can talk to one of my reps for a big network and get you in

Again, thank you! I appreciate it. I use to kill it on the singlesnet.com offers when I was pushing Azoogle. I honestly don't even know what networks have popped up since then I need to do some digging. Emailing you in about 5 mins. :thumbsup

Thanks. I have very few of my mainstream sites left over. The ones I still have have very minimal traffic if any. So do you think I would even have a chance using them? Maybe I should just build up a network this week and hope that the sites will get me in next week.

Just emailed you. :thumbsup

Bump for the afternoon crowd.

ill help you.. one second let me type it out

OK listen, right now i am in actually over 80+ networks.. Top ones being c2m, affiliate.com, neverblue, hydra, copeac, azoogle, clickbooth..

Do not fucking say you do SEO, dont say that shit.. Wanna know what works?

Apply, and in the section for comments put something like this:

Our company does email marketing. We have a list of around 1.5-2mil and our best converting offers are diet products, health products, and we are trying to dabble a bit in finance offers..We are doing over $10k/week with our big networks, we also mail out using out inhouse software, and we follow all canspam laws and apply suppression files before each mailing

Now this does 2 things: first they dont know what the fuck else to ask you, they cant basically prove/disprove you do email marketing.... Everyone says SEO, so they deny them...

Second, they dont even know wtf else to ask, they just say OK, welcome aboard..

the only downside is they keep bugging you for traffic, and when you decide to send, you can just say you are not sending mail traffic, you just wanna send some little SEO tests.. (if they ask and u really wanna tell cuz u dont have to)

once you are in, the only way to get banned is fraud traffic.. You can tell a network you are doing 1million$ a month with other networks, and send them only $100 in sales.. they dont care.. they know affiliates spread their shit around

If you have any questions you can ask,
but ive only gotten denied by one network, and that was cuz i applied from dubai(while visiting, so they said wtf is my ip in dubai, company in NJ)

I remember jumping thru hoops for these CPA networks. Amazing how adult and mainstream are so different.

Hit up nonadult.com

Hit me up st0ned! Let me know which one you're trying to get into.

I am on azoogle , CJ, Linkshare, and Hydra , contact me via email

One more thing, always make sure you are available for a quick phone call, most networks do this now, just to filter out fakes

dude just follow my guide.. works extremely well.. i can get into any network

I'm in with about 40 CPA networks. It's really not hard at all. First network I got accepted to was Neverblue about a year ago. In that time I've only been shut out on 2 applications. In the early days none of the networks seemed to mind that I came from an adult background. Until I was actually pushing some leads with other mainstream networks I told them outright, "I've been promoting adult for a few years, I got the skills necessary to drive traffic, but the market sucks where I am now. I want to promote such and such, and your network came highly recommended." It helps to know what you intend on promoting. If you want to promote weight loss, tell them that, then turn it on them and ask THEM what they have to offer you. Ask them what their best converting offers are in the niche at that time, ask them to run a check on the EPC, yadda yadda, make it sound like you got the knows to start working witht hem immediately. Once you're in it doesn't really matter if you ever send them click. you're in...

They WILL ask you how you intend to drive traffic, my same ol' story "PPC, but in the long term I intend to build my organic search traffic. Do your offers accept CPV traffic? I've been looking at exploring that route, blablabla.."

Just throw your lingo at them. Take some time to learn the mainstream speak though, it is a little different...

CPA Networks are fucking up!

You forgot to tell them you use ninja optimization and the google. :1orglaugh

don't be available or wait for shit. Apply, wait 2 days, THEN CALL THEM...

I saw that way back, they even posted it to the c2m blog. funny stuff... :1orglaugh

yup other people have mentioned some other good tips i use... tell them listen what can you do for me? swing the convo around in the first 10 secs, and you get auto approval..

Example

So Mr sexy, how do you push offers and what kind of verticals work for you? how long have you been in biz? bla bla?

Me: well first of all, what kind of offers do you have that are converting well? Im doing high 6 figs a month with hydra, do you have similar offers?

Once he hears high 6 figs(lies of course.lol), he will now try to SELL his network to you.. like oh i can offer u better payouts, etc etc.. now the ball is in your court

http://Nonadult.com new Acai, Colon and Male Muscle Offers are doing better than 1% conversions!

Thanks for the input everyone, I appreciate it! :thumbsup

That makes a lot of sense, I will give it a trial run in a few minutes. Thanks! :thumbsup

Going to try some of the above mentioned tips and I don't have any luck I will definitely hit you up. I appreciate it Jay! :thumbsup

Good looking out. I will definitely hit you up if I have any problems getting into the above mentioned networks. :thumbsup

I appreciate the input AJC, makes a lot of sense. :thumbsup

Will check it out in just a few, thanks!

If you can get someone to vouch for you that is great. Also, most have phone numbers and it's best to apply then call immediately and talk with someone via phone to establish a relationship.

They scrub/shave like mad on offers. So get used to having a kick ass offer today and tommorow you lose your ass on it.

For some reason it's acceptable for the Networks to Scrub/shave you.

shoot me an email and I'll give you fool proof ways to get approved with damn near any ad network

always mention you know teencat from gfy

Set up a site name-lastname.com

Put on there some info what you do;

Stick in a video of you holding 10'000 checks!
