My BHW CPA Guide - $10 - $? a day
Okay, so before I get started on the guide I just have to make one thing clear. Do NOT bitch in this thread. I say that because over the last few weeks I’ve been learning how to sell on Amazon..something I’ve never done before. It was all thanks to the thread Isaiahz put on this forum. It was an extremely helpful and free thread (I’m already making profits with the method) but some people on there had to attack the OP for whatever reason.
I loathe people who whine and complain something is not working for them even though everything is spelled out in plain English, and it’s f#@#ing FREE….. But then someone with brains in that thread posted this:
If you believe it won’t work then you are right.
If you believe it will work then you are right.
Same applies here, if you’re too stupid to make a method work for yourself, take your bitching elsewhere. However, I will answer legitimate and intelligent questions regarding this method. But I am not a hand holder. If you can’t figure out how to get accepted into a CPA network, this is not for you.
--------------
Alright I have two methods I would like to share with you guys. These are both Black Hat methods, so if you’re not comfortable with Black Hat, this might not be for you. BUT, you still might learn something new about services that you can use for white hat other methods that stay within TOS.
1st Method
We will be leveraging the power of Amazon’s MTURK, Microworkers, and ShortTask. Each one of these sites allow you to post jobs for users to complete. We will be using these services to post jobs for users to complete CPA offers. I pay workers between $.01 and $.25 to complete offers that pay between $1 and $10. You’ll be surprised how many people on these services will complete your task for just pennies even if it takes a half hour to complete. I don’t understand the mindset, but hey, why not take advantage of it?
FOR A LIST OF MY RECOMMENDED CPA COMPANIES TO DO THIS WITH, PLEASE PM ME AND I WILL SEND YOU THE LIST.
I have yet to get banned from a CPA company. The key is to send junk traffic to your offers as well and some legitimate traffic. If you do some searching on this forum you can learn all about that. Type “junk traffic” into the search toolbar.
1. Sign up for these three accounts:
- microworkers.com
- mturk.com
- shorttask.com
Each of these accounts allow you to post jobs for their user base to complete. Mturk has by far the largest user base of tens of thousands (probably more), then short task, then microworkers.
2. Familiarize yourself with the back office of each account. You’ll notice that short task and MTURK have roughly the same type of process for creating and posting jobs. Micro Workers is a little different and they are the only one where asking people to sign-up isn’t for stuff against their TOS.
Some important notes about MTURK:
-You do not need to confirm your e-mail address (yay, just like twitter!!!) to sign-up so definitely just use a fake one like this: 34828ddfeh4 at g mail.com. And keep track of it using roboform or something.
-Don’t deposit more than $5 into your account because you will get banned eventually, so when that happens you won’t lose much. Don’t worry about getting banned either, you can just sign-up for another account using a different fake e-mail address. Pretty simple really. Over the last 6 months I’ve been banned about 10 times and still use the service just fine. The reason why you get banned is because asking people to give out information in job postings is against their TOS (for mturk and short task). This however does not stop their armies of users from giving it to you even if you are only offering 5 cents.
-You need to be aware that since you are not prescreening candidates, that there are people out there who will try to pull a fast one on you. This why you put in your job description a form that requires the worker to submit a confirmation e-mail or something like that to ensure they completed the job. And say something in your job description like “we will not pay you if your submitted e-mail address is invalid”. This has near 100% success for me with getting people to enter valid information for you CPA offers.
Notes about Short Task
-I have yet to get banned from short task, the site operators there don’t really seem to be that vigilant
-Still use a fake e-mail for short task.
Notes about Microworkers
-Every time you submit a new job to be completed the site operators won’t post it until they have reviewed it. But don’t worry they are friendly to job postings like “click my google ads on my website”. They will post your job just about every time, especially if it’s just for a CPA that only requires a valid e-mail address to get paid by your CPA company.
3. Posting your first job….okay so I’m going to take you through the process of posting a job on MTURK. Jobs on MTURK are actually called HITS.
-Sign in to your account as a requester
-Start with a new template, I always start with a blank template.
-Enter in your title and description. This could be something like:
Title: 2 Form Survey – Easy Money!
Description: Help us test our new landing page
-Here are the keywords I use:
short survey, survey, fast survey, easy survey, quick survey, easy money, fast money, quick money, money, easy, form, quick form, fast, quick, link, quick link
-Next you will enter in “Time allotted per assignment”. I usually put 5-10 minutes. It lets your worker know that this will be a quick and easy job.
-Let your HITS expire in 7 days.
-If your CPA offer only wants United States users then in the next field limit your criteria for location being in the United States. What a great option!
-Select the required for preview button
-Next is where you choose how much you want to reward your workers. This is where you can play around, pay what you want. But believe me you’ll still get an army of workers even though you’re paying only a few cents per job!
-Number of assignments per HIT is where you choose how many people you want working on a CPA offer. Each one will be unique from a unique IP address. Start with something small like 3 or 4 for testing purposes on your CPA offer.
-I leave the HITS automatically approved after 7 days. This gives you plenty of time to decide whether or not you want to pay your worker or not based on whether they completed your assignment to your specifications.
4. Designing your Layout
-Once you get to the next page you will see where you get to design your layout.
I’m going to give you guys the HTML source of what I use for one of my jobs. Just click the ‘edit HTML source’ in the right corner and copy and paste this:
------------
-------------
Where you enter your URL, DON’T MAKE IT A HYPERLINK!!!! That makes it so your CPA network can track it back to MTURK. Instead use DMR or something like that, even URL shortening services works well.
Above is just one example of what I use, but it works. Workers think they are ‘testing’ a landing page by entering in their information. Make sure you spell out to that you won’t pay them unless their information is valid.
Once you have familiarized yourself with this page, continue on to preview and finish.
5. Publishing your HITS
- Now that you have designed your layout you can now publish your HITS so people start working on them.
- To publish them click the publish button at the top then select your layout you want published.
-Everything else should be pretty self explanatory from here. You need to fund your account. You can even just put in $1 to start for your testing. But like I said earlier do not put more then $5 into you account. You’ll be warned a few times about your job postings then they will ban you. But remember you can easily signup for another account when that happens with a fake e-mail address because they don’t require to validate your e-mail.
-When you post your jobs on MTURK get ready for them to completed fast! Workers sit on the asses all day on MTURK just waiting to work for pennies to do your jobs. Crazy I know. But take advantage of it!
----------------
So that explains how to do it for MTURK, Short Task is pretty much the same thing and Micro Workers is so easy to figure out my mom could so I don’t need to explain that.
When I’m done writing my 2nd guide I will post it below here. In the meantime feel free to ask questions regarding this method. BUT ONLY ASK AN INTELLIGENT QUESTION IF IT CAN’T BE ANSWERED IN MY GUIDE!!!! Also if it's a question that can be answered elsewere by searching this forum, don't ask! For example "where do I get junk traffic?" Their are already all the answers you need right here on the forum.
Important reminders regarding this method:
-If you doing this with incentive CPA offers keep your conversion rate below 60 – 70% to keep ‘below’ the radar
-If you’re doing this with a non incentive CPA offer definitely throw some junk and legitimate traffic at it and keep your conversion rates down.
-For e-mail submits I usually like to put in my jobs that users must enter their e-mail address then also fill out the second page with their address. Even though that isn’t required to get paid by your CPA network it will also help keep you under the radar because the users aren’t just stopping at the e-mail submit.
-Keep it under $40/day per network for staying under the radar to. I mean don't go posting a $2 submit job for 400 workers in one day. Red flags baby!!
-If you want a list of CPA networks this works well with, please PM me.
-Have fun! And to really profit don’t copy exactly what I do but put in the effort to make your job postings look unique and earn money.
I loathe people who whine and complain something is not working for them even though everything is spelled out in plain English, and it’s f#@#ing FREE….. But then someone with brains in that thread posted this:
If you believe it won’t work then you are right.
If you believe it will work then you are right.

Two Field Survey
Help us test our new landing page by doing the following- Go to http://YOURCPAOFFERURLHERE.COM
- Enter in your valid e-mail and zip code.

Where you enter your URL, DON’T MAKE IT A HYPERLINK!!!! That makes it so your CPA network can track it back to MTURK. Instead use DMR or something like that, even URL shortening services works well.
