One of the biggest choices when using this is what offers to use.

One of the largest things I think is overlooked is right under your nose once you join a CPA network - your Affiliate Manager!

This may seem obvious to some but you wouldn't believe how many people just don't use them which is crazy, they know the best earners, the best conversions and will sometimes even help you out when it comes to promoting. At the end of the day they are there to help you,and the network, make money so use them!

Having said that the other tip I would give is to use CPA offers with payouts of at least $20-$25 per sale/action. There are plenty on all the networks I have used and it really is the minimum I will look for even if it means the customer has to fill out a bit more of a form.

The reason for this is that although the ZIP submits are really easy to convert they still don't do it at 100% or even 50% a lot of the time, and the payouts tend to only be a few dollars. This is great when you have them set up on a blog or banners, but not so great when you have to pay for the traffic.

I have had a lot of campaigns that have converted really well on single field submits but because the pay out is so low they either make very little profit or none at all, so I always stick with the minimum of $20-25 as even if they are slightly worse convertors as you can afford to throw a LOT more traffic to these offers, and as we all know more targeted traffic equals more sales!
