If you haven’t already done so, you will need to read Part 1 of Easy Money With CPALead. This flows on from that and to be honest, if your reading this blog post before part 1, It will make absolutely no sense to you what so ever. Also if you are not already accepted into CPALead, read my guide on How To Get Accepted Into CPALead. So with all that said and done, i think ill make this post just simple points. Sorry if it doesn’t read well, I’m just going throw things out there for you to try/do. They are generally things i have done to increase my CPALead earnings. First thing i want to ask you though is :
Are you in for the short term or long?
While almost everyone reading this will answer the above question with the answer long. Most of you will be simply doing this method verbatim as outlined in the previous post. If you are intending to only really promote your blog through youtube videos then change your answer to short. All the tips below are to do really only with a short term model. Nothing about my method is about SEO or getting higher rankings. While working to get higher in the big G is profitable it isn’t the focus of this method.
Keep your Perma-Link structure default
While im sure you’ve heard about changing your wordpress blogging structure to a more SE friendly one. For this particular method it is actually FAR more effective to keep it as the standard page number system. The reason is simple. As you head into your second week of the method, you will have to create new videos for your site. This is because if you make a new post about the new episode, obviously this comes along with a brand new link. Which you will have to stick in your video. But if you keep the permalink structure with the number format. You can simply edit last weeks post to the new episode. And upload the same unedited video as the link stays the same!
Make a custom skin for CPALead
I cannot stress this enough when using CPALead. Alot of websites nowadays are using CPALead’s gateway. And unfortunately a few of them don’t always cough up with the goods that they promise behind the box. Its always good to differentiate yourself from these people and give yourself a unique look. People will know that its the same surveys, but its not just the default look that everyone else has. It can be as easy as whipping open photoshop (Or MS Paint :P ) and making a simple colored box. Its the little things that make the difference.
Re-Save your youtube video every upload
When youtube bans an account/video, it doesn’t just stop at the one. It basically bans every duplicate video that is on youtube. That is if you have two accounts, with the same video uploaded to both. When one gets banned the other will as-well. The simple fix is everytime you upload a video, to shorten or lengthen the clip by 1 second or even less. Then re-save it. The video will now be unique by about one second and it will be safe from being mass banned.
Don’t stop at one
Once you’ve uploaded a few videos. Don’t stop there. Use the trick above to remake the videos and upload them onto a different account. If there is one thing i have learned about youtube, its that getting views can be absolutely random at times. A video that got 5 views can be uploaded a few minutes later only to get get hundreds of views within minutes.
Use two browsers
The most easiest yet overlooked method to bring in traffic is to rate/comment your own videos. Youtube absolutely loves videos that are getting interaction with the audience. The easiest way to do this, is to always upload videos within Internet Explorer. Then have a different account that hasn’t uploaded anything on firefox. After uploading your videos through IE, wait till you get a few views on the videos, (note you want to view the videos ONLY through your control panel. If you constantly refresh the videos as a user would, you will freeze the views), then through the firefox account, 5 star them.
Turn off comments
This should be a no brainer. Turn your comments to “approve only”. That way it looks like people can comment, but when they start abusing you because of the gateway, you can just ignore them.
I’m sure there is some big tips that i have left out. But like anything in Internet Marketing. Its up to you to try things out and work up your own little bag of tricks.
