Bitcoin Forum

I recently opened a CPA Affiliate Network and it specializes in cryptocurrency offers along with all the other mainstream ones. I am doing a market research and i'm curious how many of you have dabbled around with affiliate marketing or do it for a living?

I first started affiliate marketing about 13 years ago and it took me awhile to have my first successful campaign. My first successful campaign was doing "Free" ringtones on myspace back when you heard social media you thought of Myspace. Ever since then i've been working at home doing affiliate marketing and running affiliate networks! I'd love to hear of other peoples stories related along the lines of affiliate marketing!

I've dabbled and scored sales here and there. Mostly through my blog. Sure would like to see more affiliate programs that pay out in Bitcoin other than faucets and gambling sites. (Maybe I haven't looked hard enough but there doesn't seem to be much.)

The majority of the affiliate programs on this forum are for the casinos and the bitcoin debit cards from what i've seen. If you have the right traffic source it could be pretty profitable!

I used to do affiliate marketing on clickbank,not really successful but made a small profit,if you are going to do affiliate marketing,you should know the niche you are in and only pick a product that you really understand.having a website and a social sites is a must if you want to succeed in affiliate marketing.

You can't do that in facebook though. Marketing on myspace back then is easy becuase they only allow HTML codes. Been with internet marketing too for years and have tried almost all affiliate networks including bitcoin networks. Bitcoin networks doesn't offer much though and also only few people buys using bitcoin. They knew bitcoin is valuable and they're not using it. Have you check whether RUNCPA had succeed?

Facebook gets harder and harder to market on unless you're doing facebook ads. Myspace was very lenient with allow people to post custom codes. RUNCPA would be competition for my company but we do have similar offers with a higher pay along with all the other verticals out there at the moment. I'd really like to see more companies in the affiliate world to adopt bitcoin.

I had tried to do affiliate marketing when i first joined bitcoin but it was not success as for affiliate marketing you should have lot of new ideas and that was lacking in me. So now i am just joining any good affiliate program to earn

As Bitcoin becomes more mainstream, I envisage affiliate marketing opportunities will become more plentyful and mainstream too... I hope so anyway!

I just started learning to use RunCPA, an affiliate program that is quite good but I haven't really mastered all that it has to offer.

I think affiliate marketing is very normal for this days because all of the people doing it even on investment sites where they invested money has a feature of affiliate marketing and also even on cloud mining sites they also have affiliate marketing, so i think this question is answerable by all of us, yes all of us do affiliate marketing and because it is very common so you don't even notice that you already doing it.

I've tried to do something along those lines with my Instagram accounts, as they are pretty popular and do have a lot of followers gains and likes daily but I wasn't able to find anything which specialized in Bitcoin / allowed Bitcoin to be used as a payment method for the affiliate marketing. It would seem like something that would be pretty good and may actually be able to use this at some point.

I thank you and applaud you for adding this to the Bitcoin community, wish ya luck on this too!

There is a ton of methods out there to monetize with social media, instagram still has a huge marketing opportunity for anyone still looking to get into it. A lot of marketers will do dating offers on there.

Thank you for the applaud, we are trying to add onto bitcoin community with having our network paying out in bitcoin and altcoins. We are the first network to pay out in altcoin currencies!

What does CPA stand for in this context? It's a tad confusing, given that CPA already stands for something rather widespread.

Affiliate marketing is system where you get paid equally (if not more) for your referrals activity as you do for you own? Building a network of workers beneath you is the key to annuitizing your income, yes?

I haven't engaged in it. What kind of campaign would make it specific to bitcoin?

well i do affiliate marketing through my blog and it has helped me getting traffic and earn a little bit extra money.
I will earn more money as my experience grows and it will be helpful a lot.

Affiliate income is a wonderful source for Bitcoin earnings. I make Bitcoins as an affiliate from both my Blog and YouTube channel. The key is to provide a ton of value so they have to check out your affiliate link.

It depends on what type of bitcoin-related offer you're targeting. There is a ton out there for example Crypto pay, gambling, mining etc.. Than you would just revolve your campaign around that audience.


What I've noticed with blogs is if you constantly add content to the blog google will index more pages and you will have more opportunities based on the keywords involved in the post to bring new visitors to the site. Adding affiliate offers in with your post that are related will go hand and hand!


What type of offers are you using on your blog and youtube channel?

Maybe everyone in this forum has done it. Although not being an active user doing affilate marketing.
Unwittingly in various activities we have done this. In the internet world today it is common to do.

Yeah also i great way to make a good profit by affiliate msrketing but notas good as investing also affilate marketing is not a long term so you cant earn consistently there are time that you have no invites and when you dont have invite you dont have payout but i gues almost 20%of bitcoin users do this.

That is not true that if you don't have referral or invited people then you can't do payouts because that is completely wrong. You can still do payouts for most of the sites even you don't have referrals as long as you have investment but sometimes it is still depend on the policy of the site or company that you have been invested.

I did a lot of affiliate marketing in the past, I had a couple of template websites where I gave away hundreds of free templates with resale license and also had offers for paid templates from Templatemonsters (not sure).
Got asome nice commissions from that, but this was almost 10 years ago.

Also made some good deals back in the day by buying cheap keywords on Adwords and promoting campaigns with an unrestricted Adwords policy. You know, spend 500 dollars in Adwords and get around 750 dollars in affiliate earnings.

The good ole Adwords days, some people were even seeing more profit than that! Pretty much facebook ads is the new adwords in a sense. I have an affiliate spending $2500 a day and making $4000-5000 a day on a diet product with facebook ads. Just have to know your target audience and the right keywords and you will be sitting on gold!

I think I have misread your post but I guess I have already catch what do you mean. I do affiliate marketing but my method is not the same as you instead I do promotions and whenever people joined the site that I am promoting I am earning a percentage of their investment. But in cryptocurrency world affiliate marketing is somehow commonly called promoting to get a referral commission.

I was still pretty young at that time, certainly under 18 :) For me it was a pretty nice amount of money at the time and I'm sure I didn't have everything fully optimized.
I might have to pick it up again and start testing with Facebook ads by the sound of it!

That was a very good accomplishment for being so young! I'd say it would be worth it to give it a go with facebook ads, you'd enjoy the platform seeing all the different targets you can hit. Facebook ads accounts start you with a $50 a day spending limit and they will allow you to spend more every few days of paying your bill so you can scale up.

There is no exact number of the members or people that doing this but the sure thing is, there is already a lot of people doing it and you can see a lot of like this people in the social medias like facebook where they posted a lot of different kind of posts but connected to one topic which is affiliate marketing.

Yeah, I'll definitely look into that. Do they also have some coupons for first time users? With Adwords it used to be up to 100 euros in Adwords credits you'd get.
I might try it out with some Bitcoin affiliate programs ;)

A bunch of the people that use Bitcoin do Affiliate Marketing because that’s usually how most of them found Bitcoin. I usually see people trying to promote different MLM systems and different HYIP program’s that allow them to leech money from the regular people that just get into Bitcoin and they complain that they lost money through the scam website though they don’t seem to really bash Bitcoin so much.
I don’t do much Affiliate Marketing because I don’t like to get paid by commission.

I tried some affiliate marketing back in the day, I made a sale here and there, nothing too big, but it was a nice way to get some extra cash, but then like most people I decided to get a job and I don’t have time for it anymore.

I actually may have a link bookmarked for a free $50 facebook ads voucher if I find it I'll PM it over to you. If you do decide to get back into affiliate marketing feel free to shoot me a message I could get my team members to assist you in getting some winning campaigns going with our offers ;)


It takes time to learn how to do it on your own, but there is so much information out there to get you started. I've personally have used methods off blackhatworld and have had some great success with them.

I have not seen anyone of my friends doing this job. It is very good, however, we dont have enough skill and knowledge to finish the job on time or attract a good number of people. Therefore, we decide to do many other things rather than affiliate marketing

I dont know how many but i am sure that there are many bitcoin users that do affliate marketing, i myself is one of those i use my blog to get affiliate. My blog is more on cryptocurrency and gambling through crpyto so i get lots of affiliate but most of them are not active.

It's a false thought, instead of thinking about your experience, you should find ways to do it. All of us have no experience, experience only comes when we experience, so, we will have experience if we start it. No one can say that they have experience if they have not experienced it.

i have been doing affiliate marketing from last 4-5 years., i make enough to live .

there are some good days and some bad days.,

i have tried promoting amazon .

Don't we need also money just to heighten up the traffic source? I mean does that needs to be paid just so people would visit and be ranked at google?
I have thought about this but it seems very hard if you are not that popular. Even blogs dont work much right now, they just use google and they answer all of it. Sometimes it is just youtube.
So what traffic source do you use? Kind of interested with this types if I could pull off some of my friends to support me.

Trying out things for the very first time is not bad because we can able to experience if we can handle it or not because its normal for a person do find some things difficult which are not and speaking about affiliate marketing i do really said that it wont really work out on every person because it does depend on the interest and skills of a certain individual on this kind of field.

I am actually interested in affiliate marketing, but have no idea where to begin, do you have any newbie guide at your website on how it works and basic knowledge about it? Especially with crypto involved.

Affiliate marketing is so easy to do, you just need to create an account from the site or company that is offering affiliate marketing and you can take advantage of it by promoting the link of your affiliate to the different sites out there and when someone uses your link and made a purchase or payment then you can earn commission without putting any amount of money.

To the person that asked me about YouTube, I just provide value on a topic people want to know about and link to resources in my description.

I think the best bet with affiliate marketing would be to create an authority website centered around a niche, and ranking it on Google using SEO for hundreds of keywords. That is something I am working on building and will continue to expand on.

BTW, you all know that you are participating in Affiliate Marketing with your signature campaigns, right?  ;D Make sure to put it to use if you haven't already.

This is really my favorite marketing strategy. I used to have a not less than 20 affiliates before when i was still active in online business. I knda feel sad when i cant give them benefits anymore because of being in active

Our team will take you under our wing and mentor you on how to make money with affiliate marketing. We have all the tools and knowledge to turn anyone into an affiliate marketing rockstar  :) Shoot us a message and we can get you started when you're ready.

I have done affiliate marketing for quite some time; in both Amazon.com and for product launches.  However, have really slacked off on that as I've been hitting it hard in more offline marketing projects and clients.  Would be interesting to see something setup in the crypto world related to affiliate marketing.  Let us know how or where we might learn more!

I don't really do any affiliate marketing beyond (what some may say) my signature, however I have looked at it in the past and it might be something to look into at some point. I don't know what the pay is like and what other things to expect from it if I was to actually get committed, but I always consider looking at it in the event I need to back myself up financially.

Sometime i also do this affiliate marketing but its not really effective in many times to earn bitcoin i would say almost 30% of the bitcoin holders do this but like what i say its not a permanent source of income when you don't have invite you don't have a commission and no bitcoin earn.

If you were interested in getting into the crypto affiliate world, there is a link in my signature to sign up for the network. We have crypto offers and a hoard of others. Shoot me a PM with your email if you end up signing up i'll approve your account and add $20 to your account.

For those just getting started FreeBitco.in (link in signature) has an amazing Affiliate program. They pay out a referral for faucet claims, interest and dice rolls.

If you check out their top affiliates they have gotten paid massive numbers.

yeah in actual I am a newcomer in the field of affiliate marketing about 2 years ago I don't know much about the affiliate marketing because I already here but I don't know about the mean profit and how much we can make from the affiliate marketing .
But when one of my friend told me that there are much money in the affiliate marketing then I also try to make some money from the affiliated through the Bitcoins sites.
Usually it many friends at Facebook and other social media site and told them about the new new sites for the investment and trading accident site and always register them the site with my referral link so in this way I made about 30 to $40 per month without doing any hard work but I think this is a very small amount of earning because of my friends making money from affiliate marketing about 10 to 30  times more than what I am making .
So I am here a small earner in the affiliate marketing in the Bitcoin .

   Hey, Piper. My name is Chris Butler. Nice to meet you. Interesting topic here for sure. I have done affiliate marketing at a very small scale since around April last year. Not sure how close I am with the date there but I'm positive that the first referral link I ever sent was when Bitcoin was worth $342.00 USD.
   I recently decided to make it my goal to be able to hang up my tool belt and never swing a hammer for money again. To reach this goal  I will be promoting and selling offers through affiliate marketing and I have much bigger ambitions than just conversions and RS.
    Let's just say that I welcome you to and your network to the Bitcoin affiliate world. I will be your competition and I look forward to seeing you succeed. Competition is an important ingredient in the recipe for success. Healthy, respectful competition is also a great motivational tool.
   What's good for Bitcoin is good for all Bitcoin-based companies. I will be checking out your network to see what you are bringing to the arena.
    I will not turn this into an advertisement for my Home Team though, out of respect. I wish you the best on your affiliate journey, Piper. Good luck.


   Love the slogan by the way.

I also tried that site back in the old days when i was just a newbie and i advertise that site on the different sites and also in the social campaigns and i earn at least 5 million satoshis there and because i am just a newbie, it was a very big amount for me and i just cash out them and now i can still earn a few amount of satoshi and their affiliate marketing serve as a passive income for me.

This was one of my first Bitcoin affiliate experiences as well. Also, it was the first and only time I was kicked off of Craig's List. I was a such a nube at the time, to affiliate marketing, to Bitcoin, to dice games, this whole crypto world was still a mysterious new place to me. With that being said, I actually earned a few Mbits. I think the total was less than $20.00 USD worth but I was so happy. Someone just got done telling me that referral links are a waste of time and I should go **** myself because I'm ruining Craig's List. I was unknowingly breaking a few rules and that is NEVER OK when you are promoting a product or service of someone else's. I gave it all right back to FBC.in with a "never fails proven method to earn 1 BTC in a week" using a basic Martingale auto-bet strategy.b Man, I learned a lot of dos and don'ts that week.

Hey Chris,

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for sharing your story that's fantastic. Love what you've done with your network I believe I may have created an account to see what you guys are about very impressed by how you have things setup. Friendly competition is always welcomed to the playing field, I may be contacting you down the road to see how we may be able to do business. We are working on some extraordinary exclusives, anything to get more people using the beloved currency is the ultimate goal. If you have a skype i'd love to chat with you more, best wished to you also Chris :)

No i don't have any experience or friends related with bitcoin do affiliate marketing
because i don't have much source informations about affiliate marketing especially with bitcoin,
maybe it will be avaliable in bitcoin couples years later right now there are not many projects or products related with bitcoin.

There is never a perfect time to start affiliate marketing other than now, alot of people are turning to affiliate marketing to make extra money every week.

I do agree with this, during back the days i have 15 affiliates on that time and they really are an active claimer of faucet. I usually earned around .0015-.003 per week only on the affiliate part which actually amazing

In today's bitcoin price that wouldn't be a bad gig for not having to do anything for that automated income nice work!

That is the advantage of being good in affiliate marketing because it helps us to have a passive income even without investment. Affiliate marketing is one of the best type of marketing until now because you just need to promote the site and get referrals and after that you will be having commissions from their earning and soon it will become a passive income which is great.

i use to do affiliate marketing using my blog but realize later i'm not a good writer at all. when you start earning from adsense and you want more, you tend to read some of journey of webmasters who start from scratch and earn hundreds of thousands through click per action (CPA) its interesting how they do it. only to find out its not that simple. most of those methods shared and sold are saturated.  affiliate marketing are for good writers too.

Affiliate marketing is a legit way to make money online 7 years ago so many people are into affiliate marketing but now that there is crypto currency trading and it prove to be profitable,many have shifted to altcoin trading.

I love to trade coin more than to do affiliate marketing because it takes me a lot of time to learn and to understand how people are thinking in order to have good profit with the job. Therefore, I rather spend time to learn techniques in trading

With a bunch of people getting into Bitcoin now days it would be pretty easy to write that the newer people will be into promoting affiliates because they would want to get paid money online though I am pretty sure that would be a false claim. Most people want Bitcoin because it's rising up in price, promoting affiliates won't net that much money at all.

The affiliates would be able to benefit by promoting affiliate programs and getting paid in bitcoin so they will be able to keep stacking up their bitcoin so as it rises the earnings will increase.

The affiliate earnings would be in BTC, so the ratio of earnings would stay the same as the value of Bitcoin goes up.

I agree with whoever said it is a nice way to earn passive income. With Bitcoin affiliate marketing, not only are you earning BTC but the BTC is an investment vehicle at the same time!  :D

Affiliate marketing with bitcoin it will be interesting to try it, unfortunately not many projects on bitcoin
 i don't find the business/affiliate marketing with bitcoin,
also the users who had tried and successful on affiliate marketing, they doesn't gives clear explaining
about affiliate marketing with bitcoin.

There is a flood of MLM / Network Marketing websites, working to promote altcoins these days, most of which would be promoting a new coin, developed by themselves.

Exactly so any earnings that you do make in bitcoin will reap the benefits of the price increase as it increases its value!

I have just started Doing Affiliate marketing and also Been doing CPA network .

Just learning as of Now Hopefully will get some serious Profits Out of it .

I believe many bit coiners do affiliate marketing. Because in bitcoin we need to market the bitcoin for it to grow , just like bitcoin trading and investing so that the quality of bitcoin that we have will grow and we can use it to convert on the currency of our country and to be use as our money for our daily expenses.

What is a good way to get referrals and exposure to something ? I have tried I admit not be hard at affiliated marketing I don't really think it's so much my thing but if it is for crypto currency the I may just change my tube so I want to give it a go. Where is the best place to start and is traffic exchange worth it ? I see nice landing pages on manual exchanges seem to get good attention and look attractive. Because it's manual people will look at it. I know auto is just for traffic "figures"

Good questions. If I may add, Is there a better audience, besides this forum that we can get referrals? I know that bitcoin market is not yet saturated based on my perception. But its still, its very hard to get a referral now a days. I also observed some nice landing page, but its more on the just to collect emails and nothing for affiliates. Is blog posting still profitable nowadays? Or traffic exchange still worth the money?

its mostly social media marketing that works these days. if you own a linkedin and facebook bitcoin related group, its going to be profitable for you.
this is going to be hard to create now that users are already aware how links can lead to scammy bitcoin sites.

Yeah, it really depends on the niche, because diet offers do very good on social media. They perform best around January and February because of everyone's new year's resolution is typically to lose weight this year and start going to the gym.

I am totally new to CPA Marketing. Just started my career few months ago. I hope I will get some good ideas which will help to get some extra money. As a starter I have few choices of selecting Affiliate website like- Bitcoin, CPA Hero, Affiliate Fix, RunCPA. So which one should I follow to get the best ideas? Can you tell me please.

Very well said. Anyone earning through affiliation should keep on doing so. Your BTC amount that you are earning now stays the same while its value goes up. But if you can keep your hands off of your earnings, that couple hundred dollars will turn into a couple thousand in the near future.
I don't know about passive...lol. I'm still trying to discover the passiveness in affiliate marketing. It requires much attention if you ask me. But well worth it.

I know if you have a really nice landing page that not only had the newsletter subscription you spoke of but also it can lead to a blog you own with high quality content. I have noticed it's not the amount of content per blog but rether good info pit into as few words as possible. You can get people to read the whole thing alot easier then if they greeted by a wall of boring text. Yes social media works it's white like a landing page in the regard that it's sort of a click bait but without the bs. So basically you must have something interesting or even ask a question so people are curious. I'm not a professional I don't do affiliated marketing but this is my observstions this far that I've noticed from affiliates that are doing very well.
