## Summary

This video provides a step-by-step guide for beginners to start making money with CPA marketing using Facebook ads. The creator explains how to choose a CPA network, pick a profitable offer, and create a smart link, then reveals a clever method to bypass Facebook's ban on CPA links using Google Forms and Google Sites without expensive cloaking software.

### Key Points

- **How CPA marketing works** [00:59] — Companies outsource lead generation to CPA networks. Affiliates get a unique link and earn when users complete an action like an app install or email submit.
- **Finding a CPA network** [01:55] — Use apay.com to find reputable CPA networks. OG Ads is highlighted with a 4.9 rating, PayPal payment, and $50 minimum payout.
- **Picking the right offer** [03:29] — In the CPA network dashboard, filter offers by category, country, and device. Search for 'gift' or 'free' to find email submit offers. The key metric is Network EPC (Earnings Per Click); aim for at least 0.10.
- **Creating a smart link** [05:29] — Since direct linking is not allowed on OG Ads, create a smart link via the incentive tools. Copy the offer ID, add it to a new smart link along with similar offers, and set a redirect URL (e.g., google.com).
- **Setting up a Facebook ad** [08:06] — Create a Facebook page that resonates with the offer. Then use the Facebook Ads Manager to create a campaign with the goal 'Get more website visitors'. Use a YouTube video (with permission) or an AI-generated video from Google AI Studio as the creative.
- **Bypassing Facebook's CPA link ban** [12:05] — Facebook bans CPA links. A cloaker shows a safe page to moderators and the real offer to users, but it's expensive. The video's method: create a Google Form with quiz questions, set the confirmation message to redirect to a social media profile (Instagram/Twitter), and embed the form on a Google Site. Facebook sees the form as a legitimate page, so the ad gets approved. Then put the smart link in the social media bio.
- **Bonus tips for higher engagement** [18:33] — Use ChatGPT to generate images for each quiz question to increase engagement. Also, buy a cheap custom domain (e.g., .xyz for $2) from Namecheap and connect it to the Google Site to improve conversion rates.
- **Estimated earnings math** [20:40] — With a $10/day budget, the creator estimates 120 clicks/day. If 20 people complete the offer at $2.25 payout, that's $45 revenue, yielding $35 profit per day.

and wondering how some people are earning 5,000, 10,000 or even $50,000 per month with CPA marketing, but you can't seem to figure it out yourself,
which ends up getting you frustrated and makes you feel like giving up alltogether. And that is the reason why in this video I'll walk you through a step-by-step process on how to make at least $500 a day with CPA marketing. And
the best part, the entire process takes between 10 to 20 minutes every single day if you use the exact strategy I'm about to share with you in this video. And if you're new to the channel, I make videos about how to earn money online.
then make sure to look around the channel. you will definitely find other interesting videos. So, first of all, for the benefit of those who are new to CPA marketing and don't understand how
this model works, basically there are many companies out there who are constantly looking for customers and leads to keep their business alive and also to grow their customer base. So, what do they do? They simply outsource
what do they do? They simply outsource the lead generation process to CPA networks. And once you sign up to a CPA network, you're going to get a unique network, you're going to get a unique affiliate link to these offers. Be it an
app install offer, email submit or trial offers. And what happens is when you promote these offers, you get paid when people complete the offers using your
affiliate link. You see, it's that simple. So the very first step is finding a CPA network. However, finding a reputable CPA network with timely payment can be also. So that's why you want to come over to this
platform.com and it makes it easy for you. If you come over to this platform, you are going to find so many CPA networks here. So now if we take OG ads as an example right here, if you come over to their page on apay.com, as you
can see here, you're going to see when you are going to get paid. You're also going to see the minimum payment right here. And also you are going to see the method of payment available to you. Okay, you can see you can get paid via
Okay, you can see you can get paid via PayPal, Payonia, wire check and also you And if you scroll down here, you are going to see reviews from other affiliates who are using the platform.
And if you scroll down here, you can see their overall rating here is 4.9, which tells you this is a reliable CPA network you can work with. So the next step is to simply go over to the CPA network
website. And for this case, you want to go over to ojart.com and you want to click on the sign up button to create an account if you don't have one already. And also, if you want to know how to get approved easily on OG Arts, I'll link a
video down in the description. So, I highly recommend to check out that video and it's going to make the approval process easy for you. So, once you're process easy for you. So, once you're signed up to your OG Arts account or any
CPA network of your choice. So, the next step is to then pick an offer. And I'm going to show you how to pick the right offer to promote for any CPA network. All you just simply need to do is to come over to the offer section. So once
this page and this is where you are going to see various offers available on the network. All right, you can filter offers based on category if you want to do that. You can type in any country here and you're going to see CPA offers
available in that country and also you can filter based on device if you want to do that as well. But for this video, we are going to work with email submit simply come over to the search section and you can type in something like gift
and you can type in something like gift or you can type in something like free. So, once you type in gift in the search bar, you are going to see email submit offers. And what this means is users just simply need to enter their email
address on the offer page and you make money. All right. And also, you want to take a look at the payout of each of these offers. However, the most important metric you want to look at is the network EPC as this gives you a
general overview of how this offer is performing for other affiliates. The higher the EPC, the higher the performance of that offer. So, you want to make sure to go for offers that have at least 0.10 EPC, which tells you the
offer is performing really well for others. And that is a good indicator that is likely to perform for you as well. So an example is this offer right here with 0.13. You can see this other offer here with 0.10 and you can see the
cap right here. So this tells you offers with IPC are likely to perform for you for others. So the next thing you want to do is to grab the link to that offer.
And to do that all you need to do is to click on the view button. Okay. Okay. So if I take this offer here as an example. So if I click on it, as you can see here, we can't grab a link to an offer directly on OG ads. However, you can do
this on other CPA network. As you can see here, no direct linking. You have to create a content locker or use one of the incentive tools to promote the offer. So the next thing you want to do is to copy the ID of the offer we wish
to promote. So I'm going to copy this offer right here. So you want to copy this and save it to a notepad. Okay. So the next thing you then want to do is to come over to tools. Okay. And you want to come over to incentive tools. As the
offer says, we can only promote this offer using any of these tool. So the most suitable tool for promoting this offer with the method I'm about to show you with Facebook ads is either using a content locker or using a smart link. So
for this video we are going to use a smart link instead. All right. So you want to click on smart links. All you need to do is to create a new smart link. And once you do that you can give the smart link whatever name you want.
come over to the red direct URL and you can type in something like google.com here. And the next thing you want to then do is to go to the offer section. And this is where you want to add offers you wish to promote on this smart link.
So you want to basically click on add offers and as you can see here you can add offers directly by clicking on this plus button. Okay. So you can come over plus button. Okay. So you can come over here and manually add as many CPA offers
as you want. However, since we already have an offer in mind we want to promote. All you just need to do is to paste in the ID of that offer right here. So once you do that it's going to show the offer and all you need to do is
to click on add. It's that simple. Since the primary offer we are promoting is targeting users in the US, we want to also add similar offers as well. So an example of a good offer we can add here is this one right here. Okay, so we want
to click on add. And this is all you really need to do. You want to add two to three offers. And once you're done, all you need to do is to click on this button. So once everything looks good, all you just need to do from here is to
click on create smart link. So once your smart link is created, you want to click this page. And this is where you are going to see the direct link to this smart link. And like I said earlier, once users from the US click on this
smart link, they are going to be shown the birthday gift card offer. So the next thing you then want to do is to create a Facebook account. So once you to make sure to come over to the menu section and you want to create a
Facebook page by clicking on this page option. All right. So you want to make that resonate with the offer you are promoting. You want to then add a photo. You want to also add a banner as well. All right. So it's very easy to create.
And once you're done, all you just need to click on create page. However, since I already have a page, I'm going to take this page on this account as an example. So, once you created the page, the next thing you want to do is to click on
create ads. So, once you do that, it's going to bring you to this page. And this is where you'll be able to create a Facebook ad to promote this offer. All then do is to come over to where it says goal, and you want to change this from
automatic. All you just simply need to do is to scroll down here and you want to look for this section that says get more website visitors. All right. So, as you can see, it says here this is good for generating traffic. So, you want to
select this, you want to then click on save. So, once you do that, it's going to then ask you to add a creative which you'll be using to promote this ad. And I'm going to show you two ways you can use to get creatives to promote your
ads. So the first so the first one is by simply going over to YouTube as you can see on your screen right now and look for videos are related to the offer. So if you take a look at the example on your screen right now as you can see
this is a short video can basically use to promote this part as this video is related to popa. However you don't want to go around using people's video without their permission. So you want to make sure to go over to the profile of
that YouTube channel and you are going to find a way to contact the owner of that video. So if you don't want to go through this hassle of contacting people to use their video, you can simply create the video yourself. We can use a
create the video yourself. We can use a hyper realistic video generator like Google AI studio. So, this tool is advanced and I've used it to generate hyper realistic videos for ads and it works amazingly well. So, you want to
come over to AI Studio.google.com and you can use their tool to generate a video in less than 30 seconds. All you just need to do is to describe the video here and you want to click on enter and you're going to get a
click on enter and you're going to get a video you can use to promote this offer. So it generate the video you can see on your screen for me and as you can see the video is IPA realistic. Not so many people are going to know the video is
actually from AI. Okay. So you can use this tool to basically enter any prompt here and you can generate amazing videos you can use as your creative. So once you've generated the creative all you just need to do is to upload the
creative right here and you want to click on select media. So you want to make sure to come over to videos and you want to then click on upload. So once the creative has been uploaded, all you just need to do is to click on select.
All right, as you can see here, this is our creative right here. And here you our creative right here. And here you can type in a short description for this creative. So you can type in something engaging like this. What is your
birthday wish for me? All right. So, this is to get people to actually engage with our ads because the more people engage with our ads, the less CPC we are going to get, which stands for cost per click. So, you want to then enter a
simple edge line like this. And now the next thing is to select a button. And here you can select any of this option right here. So, I'm going to click on this learn more as an example. And this is where you then want to enter a link
to the offer. However, it's a no-brainer that Facebook kick against CPA offers. And this is because Facebook considers CPA offers spam or scam. While there are
truly many scam CPA offers out there, there are also a lot of legit ones as well. However, in a bid to protect the platform, Facebook doesn't want to take any chances at all. So, they just decided to prohibit CPA links all
together. So it doesn't matter if the CPA offer you are promoting is legit or not. Facebook is not going to let you promote it. Facebook being one of the best social media platforms to get high quality traffic. It can't be overlooked
by affiliate marketers and this led to the use of cloers or cloaking softwares to hide the CPA links from Facebook moderators. I constantly see people
comparing cloaking with URL shorteners. They are not the same at all. A URL shortener just like it says it only shortens the affiliate link. It does not hide the link at all. However, a cloer on the other hand is a very
sophisticated tool which means it shows the Facebook moderators a compliant page which is also known as a safe page. whereas the target user will be shown
the actual CPA offer page which is also known as the money page. So you see why it's a very powerful tool and if set up correctly with the right technique your ads is going to get approved and you're going to make a lot of money on Facebook
and so you know there is a reason why cloas are not very common and that is because as they are very expensive amongst many other reason which makes it unsuitable for most beginners who are just starting out with little budget.
So, in this video, I'm going to show you how to bypass this without having to use any cloer at all. So, the very first thing you want to do is to come over to Google site and don't worry, I'm going to show you how to use Google site to
bypass this and you can get your ads approved easily. So, you want to come approved easily. So, you want to come over here and click on start a new site. bring you to this page and you want to make sure to delete all of this. And one
thing you're going to simply do is to scroll down and you want to then click on forms. You want to then make sure to select a form and you want to click on insert. So as you can see here, this is a simple form which you'll be using to
promote this offer. And I know this is not making sense right now, but I'm going to show you exactly why you need to do this. And this is how you're going to get your ads approved easily on Facebook. So you want to simply go over
docs.google.com/forms. As you can see, I have created two examples right here. So, as you can see, this is a very simple form right here. Jenny's birthday gift for wellwishers. All right, 10 lucky winners will be selected. And
here, you want to then add three to five quizzes which you want people to answer. Okay, so as you can see here, I've added um this first one here, and I've also added a second one here. The last question in your quiz is going to hint
that people are going to get a giveaway. And as you can see, the last question here says, "Pick your dream birthday gift." As you can see, $50 Amazon gift gift." As you can see, $50 Amazon gift card, $25 Starbucks, $100 Visa prepaid
card, free movie ticket. So, people are going to select one of these options and it's going to direct them to where they are going to find our CPA offer link. create this in a moment. So if you come over here, all you just need to do is to
click on start a new form. So once you do that, the very first thing you're going to do is to basically give this form a name. So I'm going to use the same example. And also for the description, you can type in anything
here as well. You can change this figure to any figure of your choice. So here comes the most important part. And this is where you are going to be adding a question. And here you want to make sure to select this multiple choice. All
right. So once you select this, this lets you add options to this form. Okay. Here you can type in question relatable to the offer you are promoting. So as you can see the first question I asked here is what is your favorite way to
celebrate your birthday? And people have four options they can choose from right see the second question. When it comes to your birthday treat how do you usually celebrate it? Do you spludge on yourself? we should add extra cash or
forget to celebrate it. And the last question is going to hint toward the CPA offer we are promoting so that it prepares them for what they going to see on the next page. Once you've added all your question, you want to come over to
settings, you then want to come over to response section and here you want to make sure to select do not collect. Although this is optional which means you can choose to collect people email address if you want to do that. So the
final thing you want to do on this page is to come over to presentation and you want to come over to where it says confirmation message and you want to edit this message here. Thanks. Get your free gift card here. You want to then
enter a social media account right here. Preferably Instagram or Twitter. Okay. these two right here because they are trusted domains. All right, and the
reason you want to do this is because if you redirect to the CPA offer on this page, Facebook is not going to approve your ad. All right, so you want to do this here and you want to click on save. So now if we go over to view our landing
page, if I scroll down here and I select any of this, all right, and I then click on submit, as you can see, it's going to bring the visitors to this page. And if you can see, is then going to bring users to our Instagram profile. So this
right here is basically just telling Facebook you are trying to promote your Instagram profile. All right. So once your ads get approved, you want to then basically come over to the bio. You want to then add your smart link right here.
You can see this is a very creative way you can easily bypass Facebook and promote your CPA offers or your smart link easily. So this how easy you can promote your CPA links. So this is how easy you can promote CPA offers. But
here's a bonus trick I usually do to increase the engagement on the quiz page. So you want to basically come over here and you want to copy whatever question you are asking people and you want to simply go over to chat GPT. So
once you come over to chat GPT, you can basically type in that exact question and you can ask chat GPT to create an image for you. All you just have to do is to upload that image. So once you do this step, I can assure you this is
going to increase the engagement rate on your forms as people are going to see images while they are answering this question. All right, so you want to make sure to add images for each of these quiz question. And this is literally how
easy it is to run ads on Facebook. Add the form to your landing page on Google site. So once you add the forms like this, all you just need to do is to click on publish. And I highly recommend to go over to namechip to get a custom
domain. You don't have to get a com domain. You can get something like axyz domain which goes for just $2. All right? And this is going to help a lot with your conversion rate as people are going to see a custom domain as opposed
to a generic Google site landing page. Once you get the domain on NameChip, just come over here and click on connect domain and you can then add the domain to your landing page. So once you've connected your domain name to Google
site, you want to come over and add it right here. And the next thing you want to then do is to scroll down. You want to then make sure to select your target country. And you want to click on this audience detail. And if you do that, you
can select which gender you wish to target. All right. Since you're starting as all. And here you want to select within 18 to let's say 35. Okay? And here you want to then enter the country you wish to target. However, for this
detailed targeting, I recommend to leave it as default as Facebook is really advanced and it's going to show your offer to the right audience. So now let's go down here and let's say we want to spend $10 a day. We are likely going
to spend $10 a day. We are likely going to get clicks between 73 to 210 clicks to get clicks between 73 to 210 clicks every single day. Okay, let's say we get just 120 clicks every day. Okay, so let's say we get just 120 clicks and out
of the 120 only 20 people decide to complete the offer. So if we multiply complete the offer. So if we multiply the offer payout by 20, as you can see the offer payout by 20, as you can see here, we are making $45 for every $10 we
spend. So that is already a profit of $35 right there. Okay. So all you just need to do here is to then come over and add your payment details. And once you do that, you want to click on publish and your ad will be sent out for review.
Once your ad gets approved, you're going to start driving traffic and start to start driving traffic and start getting clicks on your affiliate link.
