Interview with Oliver Kenyon from CPAFix.com

cpafix

I am very happy to announce my first interview on my blog. Since going fulltime with PeerFly, I have been trying to be more active on the different affiliate marketing forums available and one that I joined awhile ago and have been somewhat inactive on is CPAFix. I am pretty good friends with the owner, Oliver, and I plan to increase my activity so I decided to ask Oliver to do an interview and tell me a little more about his forum.

oliver Interview with Oliver Kenyon from CPAFix.com

First off, why don’t you tell everyone a bit about yourself Oliver?

Hey Luke and hello readers! My name is Oliver Kenyon but some of you may know me as K. I’m a 24 year old entrepreneur from England. I have my own web development company called Okenyon Webs and I’m also an affiliate marketer.

I’ve seen a post a few times about your affiliate earnings. Are you generating 100% of your income online now? Tell us a bit about the type of traffic you like to work with and the campaigns you prefer to run.

As of January I will be 100% online. I’ve had a great year working every hour around the clock to learn a lot, mature and build up my company. Working full time hours as a chef, this has been hard but very rewarding as I am now at the stage where I can leave my job and pursue my online career and my true love. As far as traffic and campaigns, I have pushed publishing to the bottom of my list for now whilst I build up my reputation and company and work on my websites like CPAFix.com. However, when I get back into running things in the new year I plan to do things outside of the box. I am going to hit Offline CPA very hard in the new year as I think it’s very untapped.

Okay, so, what is CPAFix and why should my PeerFly publishers join your forum?

CPAFix is a Cost Per Action and affiliate marketing site, based around the forum. We aim to be the number one resource for everything CPA. We host many features as well as individual forums for every type of traffic source and method. We cater for everyone from newbies to experienced publishers and can boast some of the biggest affiliate names on the boards. PeerFly is well represented on the site by yourself and your publishers have another way to contact and ask you questions within your PeerFly thread.

We are a friendly and welcoming board and would love to meet and share resources with your publishers.

How do you compare CPAFix to WarriorForum?

I don’t – lol but seriously we are two completely different things. WarriorForum is great but we wanted to build something directly targeted for CPA and affiliate marketing. WarriorForum is a giant and were not trying to compete with them, but we will be as successful within this niche I can promise you that. I think the beauty of CPAFix.com is that everyone is on the same page. There are no big time ego’s thinking they are better than the rest. We are all just decent people trying to help each other earn more and more.

What do you have planned for the future of CPAFix?

For CPAFix there is no limits. I won’t stop until it’s the best place where all affiliates can come online and get everything they need. We are constantly brain storming and trying to come up with more features and tools to make it a better resource and we are always up for suggestions. As far as myself I feel the skies the limit, I’m far from big headed but i just have this burning in my stomach that pushes me on and on with this company and business. Okenyon Webs will be a landmark company in the near future and I plan to release more and more websites, mostly under this sector. We have big plans for January and have some nice ideas lined up for early release!

What would you say are the three best resources for an affiliate marketer?

  1. cpafix.com
  2. lukepeerfly.com
  3. cpafix.com

but seriously you have a great blog man. In all honesty it depends what level you are at. I love to read Shoemoney.com because you can pick up some great tips but its not in your face. There are some nice paid forums like STM and IMGrind and also a few decent blogs out there. I would also recommend the CPA section on WarriorForum if you need a question answered quick but CPAFix will shit on them soon enough :)

What is your favorite PeerFly feature and what is one change you would make?

I think PeerFly on a whole is an awesome network for the more advanced publisher. My favorite features are all the attention to detail. By this I mean when you click an offer everything is very easy to find and navigate. You provide all the creatives and they’re easy to find. If I had to add something it would probably be some kind of advanced gateway. I know PeerFly isn’t a content locking network but that may be cool in the future. Also, I would go to town on your points feature, where by affiliates earn points as well as cash per lead and can exchange points for things like iPads, Kindles, etc!

I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions and I think my readers will find them very useful. I can see you are dedicated to the industry and look forward to seeing CPAFix grow along with the business relationships between myself and your members. Anything else you’d like to add?

Thank you Luke, it’s been a pleasure. As an added incentive to get your readers onto CPAFix – if they mention “Luke from Peerfly” or this blog in their introduction thread I will personally email them my latest Facebook pages ebook. Once again, thanks Luke and I wish you and all the staff at PeerFly along with your readers a great Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Find Popular Affiliate Blogs

find affiliate blogs

We get a lot of affiliates new to the industry at PeerFly. We are very popular on affiliate marketing forums like WarriorForum where aspiring affiliate marketers roam searching for information on affiliate marketing and what affiliate networks to join. This is great! I love to manage new affiliates and have no issue answering their questions and helping push them along as they learn (as long as they are willing putting forth an effort).

One of the first questions they ask is where they can find more information besides bugging me, their affiliate manager. My number one suggestion is to go out and read everything they can from affiliate blogs, which is one of the reasons I started this blog. But, where should you look to find those?

Affiliate Marketing News Aggregates

One of the best places to find information on affiliate marketing is affiliate blogs. There are thousands of great posts on there on pretty much every topic within affiliate marketing (affiliate network reviews, different traffic sources, how to use certain traffic sources effectively, what type ad to use where, etc.) and you can access them all (primarily) for free! I’ve found that the best way to go about this is by looking through the different affiliate marketing news aggregates to find the best blogs and then read through those blogs for great blog posts. There are currently two aggregates that I use.

affbuzz Find Popular Affiliate Blogs

Affbuzz

Affbuzz is the original source for affiliate marketing news. It is updated daily with posts from about 70 different affiliate blogs. They feature the most popular posts for the day, the most popular posts for yesterday, and the most popular for the week.

Affbuzz is great, but is pretty limited. They have a resources page that is pretty dull and a blog that hasn’t been updated in months. They also have an RSS feed that is currently broken, but I’ve contacted them about getting it fixed as soon as possible because my affbuzz.mobi site utilizes it for new blog posts.

affdaily2 Find Popular Affiliate Blogs

Affdaily

Affdaily is the new kid on the block as far as affiliate marketing news aggregates go. The site was launched earlier this year and is a sister site of popular affiliate network review site, AffiliatePaying.com. When you head over to Affdaily you’ll immediately notice the similarities between it and Affbuzz. They have about 60 different affiliate blogs listed (including this one) and also feature the popular blogs from today, yesterday, and last week.

The nice thing about Affdaily and the reason I like it more than Affbuzz is that it seems well put together and has a cleaner interface. This is something you would expect from the creators of AffiliatePaying, but it really shows they put their time into the site. Affbuzz seems a little thrown together.

Affdaily also allows you to sign up and customize your feed. You can also view Twitter feeds of affiliate marketers, which is a pretty cool feature Affbuzz lacks.

These are two pretty good resources for any affiliate marketer. I usually check both every day or every other day to see what is happening outside of PeerFly. I personally like reading and recommend the following blogs (in no particular order):

These are blogs that I have been reading for awhile and have found good information on. They are also the ones I comment on frequently.

So, if you are an affiliate marketer and haven’t checked out Affbuzz or Affdaily yet I highly suggest it! They are great resources of free information that can help you make more money online.
