What exactly is
PAY PER LEAD?? You may ask.
Firstly lets consider the following terms which you will hear over and over again as we move along.
ADVERTISER: This is the owner of the product or service which you are trying to promote. They will also process the payment and fulfill the order
PUBLISHER:The publisher (which is you) can also be called "affiliate"," partner", "associate", and most often than not a "reseller". This is "you" who promotes the product or service in exchange for a commission or a compensation.
Which brings us back to what we were discussing.
Pay Per Lead is a sort of payment option which an advertiser pays an affiliate when such is able to carry out any qualified lead, which is usually in form of having a visitor fill a form or enter information on the website of the advertiser or mechant.
Lets clearly take a look sweeties, for instance there's an advertiser out there looking to have affiliates or is lucky to have you promote their products or services on a pay per lead basis, say
10$ for
per lead.Lets say the advertiser deals in phamaceuticals ......and......you happen to have a knowledge or any idea of this niche.If you can successfully get a visitor to the advertisers site or blog (like mine! :-) ) what this means is that, if you get this visitor to the advertiser's site and at the end of the day, such fills out an information on the advertisers site such as a form,downloading a trial software,or performs any other actions......... you get paid!!
What this means is that all you have to do is register with any online merchant or advertisers looking to have affiliates help them sell a product or service and.......viola, you get all the bucks comin'...cool isnt it??
I like to let you know that as cool as it sounds, it is not one easy task........pheeeew! Ok Ok dont be scared but it takes just some hard work and in no time, you'll get the bucks rollin'.................oh yeah!
To get a good pay per lead program is no easy task, but if you are lucky to get one below are some of the things to watch out for:
1.WHEN DOES AN AFFILIATE GETS PAID?
This is paramount as you need to know when you'll get paid for "working". Would it be after the visitor performs a task on the advertisers site such as filling out a form or signing up for a newsletter??
It is inportant you take you time to carefully know this............its worth the effort.
2.HOW MUCH CAN AN AFFILIATE EARN?
