Some info about terms used by Internet Marketers. These are the most common phrases used in the IM World.

CPA stands for Cost Per Action. What this means is that the end user has to complete something in order for you to get paid. This can be a number of things. It can be an email submit ad, were a user will need to type in the email into the box and press submit, or it can be something along the lines of paying for shipping using a credit card for a free trial program. Usually CPA pays from .50 to more than 100 dollars sometimes.

Cookie Stuffing. What this refers to is well stuffing cookies. eBay, Amazon and some other Companies pay people for referring users to buying items. The way they track the referred user is through cookies. When someone visits ebay through your link and buys something, you get paid, so people came up with a way of putting these cookies onto the end users computer without them noticing thus earning you money. This is probably the easiest way to earn money but can be the most time waster at the same time.

EWhoring. This method is used a lot lately because of the good and fast outcome. What you do when you ewhore is that you act like a chick and talk to people on craigslist, through email, facebook, myspace, etc.. You convince them that you are a chick, and a hot one at that by sending pictures (of course fakes). Then you convince them to go to a certain site through your referrer link (AdultFriendFinder, Cams.com, etc..) and register using a credit card. Each sign up can pay from 15-120 dollars.

PPC PPC stands for pay-per-click. This means you will be paying to put your ads up, to drive traffic to your cpa offers or your site thus make money. Sites that do this are google (adwords), adbrite, etc.. The conversion rate on these is usually low and you can end up spending 200-300 dollars without making a dime back. This is a really advanced method and I am literly afraid of trying this just out of the fear of getting fucked. Also google offers adwords certificates which can be carded  .

PPV PPV stands for Pay Per View. This is where you pay Zango or Traffic Vance or companies like that to pop your ads up on peoples computers. What happens is that people download applications like ppi, and then that app pops up pages/ads on their computer. What you do is, you get bunch of keywords/urls and you submit them to zango. Then zango pops up your site/ad when the person goes to that specific keyword. This is sort of like ppc and can easily make you lose a lot of money if its not used right, but unlike ppc this has higher conversion rates.
