Mini CPA Network Review 3

Posted on February 27, 2009 by admin

Hello!  Today, I want to discuss a little bit about my limited (only 2 months) experience as a publisher with three different CPA networks.  Clickbooth, Hydra Network, and Affiliate.com

Clickbooth was the first network I applied to and was accepted fairly quickly, within 2 or 3 days I think.  I started promoting a few offers with PPC on google adwords, and a made a few bucks initially, then a little more overall.  My affiliate manager hasn’t put much effort into our “relationship”, and hasn’t given me many tips or hot offers, as well as regular communication.

Affiliate was the second one I joined, and again, was fairly easy to get in – about 3 or 4 days approval waiting time.  I’ve had the least success with affiliate – though my affiliate manager is a little more on the ball, and they have a twitter account you can follow with updates, offers, etc.

Web design/interface wise, it seems as though affiliate and clickbooth are very similar/based off the same system or template.  Or maybe they’re both owned by the same parent company.. but I don’t think so.  Both of them have several different types of offers, exclusive and non-exclusive.  Lots of email/zip submits, lots of other higher payout type offers.  Overall, I think they are both good networks, I just haven’t applied my learnings and findings fully to them yet.  Perhaps I need to request new Affiliate Managers??

So the third network I joined was Hydra Media Network.  I actually applied to these guys twice, because I was denied the first time.  Apparently, or so I’ve read, Hydra is one of the tougher ones to join.  My affiliate manger is awesome, I get almost daily email updates of new offers as well as hot offers.  but they’re not just listed as “hot offers”.  They actually give me the conversion stats that they are running at.  (If nothing else, it’s a bit of a benchmark for me to know if it’s me or the offer that is underperforming.  In most cases it’s me ;) ).  That’s really nice, but it takes a little guess work out of it, and lets me get to making some money.  I also promote new offers that I think look good as they come – everything needs testing by someone!

So, based on this, I recommend Hydra.  But if you can’t get into hydra, then either of the other two will get you cash – it just depends on you and your affiliate manager.  My overall recommendation?  Join all three, and more!
