I have all the tools - BUT DO NOT KNOW WHERE TO START!! (9)

---

Hi guys.

Im sure you have heard all this before but here goes...

I want to become successful in cpa and affilliate marketing but really do not know how to put everything together, or well, i do, but have a mental block actually doing in.

I am signed up with various networks and traffic sources, but am scared to actually give it all a real good go.

My mental block is with the landing page and AD.

I understand Ad-> landing page -> offer -> sign up -> convert etc...

I just need guidance with regards to ad creation and lander...

I would like to run with the niches of dating, adult, weight loss, health and fitness...

I've spent far too long reading and dithering around. I need to take some bloody action and make some money, hence why im hear so some one can lead me the way or guide me to sucess...

I find it hard to settle one one traffic source...

Please Please can some one help me get my head straight.

Thank you all for listening.

Just get started.

Set aside $500.

Flip a coin or roll a die if you can't decide which avenue/campaign/channel to pursue.

Even if your landing pages are no good, doesn't matter at this stage.

Just do something

Just pick up one source and niche and start, it's that simple. I started on POF, to me it's easiest platform to understand for beginners and to learn all the basics.

You can even start with worst LP and ad ever (or download something on STM), get some data, then try to create a bit better and repeat and repeat and repeat.

I'd suggest getting started with POF & dating. Tried and tested + easy to get started for the newbie.

Now that that's sorted, ad creation and landers >>> speak to your affiliate manager and ask for the top converting offers at the moment. Pick one. Then go here http://affexpert.com/pofsp1/index.php to spy on the competition. That should give you enough inspiration to get the ball rolling...

Quick quote for inspiration: "You don’t have to be great to get started, but you do have to get started to be great."

Best of luck!

You make many on every source. There is no right source. There is no right niche.

Like everyone else said, just pick something! Then we can be more help once you give us something to work with.

I will tell you what I have tried so far.

I have tried POF... I direct linked my ads to the offers, is this wrong? Yes I did that becuase I'm a little scared with the lander part (stupid i know) ----> So should i always go with a lander for dating? or direct link?

I think i chose asian dating and some mature dating, burned around $80 on pof ads, and got about $25 from the offer, via peerfly.

So that was a fail.

Also, with the ADS on pof, is there a tried and tested 100% converting AD..that works, and runs well at all times?

Thanks all.

I personally lost tons in beginning.

Now, i am quite good at making profits.

There is one right source, the one you work with
There is one right niche, the one you are working in.

@ash213 - there is no single ad that will always work. Nor is there a single landing page or offer that will always work. You've got to test, experiment, and invest money to learn.

Spending $80 to make $25 as your first try is actually a really good start - now analyse what worked and what didn't, improve the campaigns, launch more, and success will come after hard work!

I love this and want it on a T-Shirt.
