Hi,

I did a bit of PPC arbitrage a few months back and turned a little bit of profit until i got bored.

Now I was planning on getting into AM but I see there is a program which pays per click. It pays 8c per click, and there is no program T.O.S.

Can I buy cheap clicks from 7search/Google/Yahoo/Whatever with my aff link as the destination URL? So buy a 3c 7search click and get paid 8c from the program? Is this allowed?

I know it's only 5c profit per click but it's piss easy to set up so I thought it might be something I can set up and leave while I try and get real conversions with CPA programs.
 


what was your CTR? don't forget to factor that into your spending.. you need at least 37% to click through to spend 3cents on an 8 cent program to break even.
 
No you only pay for clicks. And only clicks earn. So every click you pay 3c for earns you 8c. Impressions, are free.
 
I wouldn't think they would have liked it as the places that you advertise could be the places that they could also advertise for cheaper, plus putting their link on 7search is something that they probably wouldn't even do theirselve even if they paid only 3 cents just because of the lower coversions on the traffic that they most probably will receive.
