Google pay per action

Author: Nick Papanotas

You visited a few times and I would appreciate your thoughts on this post, why not comment?

As you may know Google recently launched their pay-per-action program which is actually a CPA program. If you were watching the industry news lately you should know that this was something reasonable to happen as most online marketers believe that CPA is the future or internet marketing. In addition in the future CPC programs will be less important as happened with CPM programs in the last decade.

For Google this is a major hit, as their #1 money maker which is adwords, is going to lose popularity. Personally I didn’t think that they will start offering a CPA program so soon, but for another time Google seems to be in front of their competitors :)

Having a look at Google’s CPA program, I think that they have are not like the CPA networks we are used to. A very good post at shoemoney explains that very well and actually shows the problems that will occur. Anyway as it is just the beginning I guess we have to sit back and check how things will go. In the meanwhile there are much better CPA networks to use like CJ and AzoogleAds.

    I don’t know how Google will utilize this, but for the moment I am happy using CJ as a CPA network.

    I think we can try the beta soon, today I found a signup link in my adsense account.
