Hey everyone,
Thanks for stopping by my follow-along! I’ve decided to document my entire journey here as I aim to reach a steady $100/day in affiliate earnings. This is my way of keeping myself accountable, tracking progress, and maybe picking up some valuable feedback from the community along the way.
A little background: I only got started in CPA marketing back in April, but things have moved quickly since then. I’ve joined a small mastermind group with three other marketers, attended AWE in Berlin, and signed up with several affiliate networks, including MundoMedia, ClickDealer, and Mobidea. I’m also registered with a few others, but my main focus for now will be on these three.
After narrowing down my verticals, I worked closely with my affiliate managers at MundoMedia and ClickDealer to select some offers worth testing. One offer in particular came highly recommended because it’s been performing well for other affiliates. Another was suggested because the traffic costs were relatively low — perfect for scaling tests. I also picked two anti-virus offers from Mobidea that seemed promising at first glance.
To kick things off, I set up multiple campaigns across these networks. I even managed to get the same offer from two networks so I could compare results directly. This week’s stats have been a mixed bag:
The biggest issue I’m dealing with right now is tracking. In Voluum, I can see visits, clicks, conversions, and CTR — but none of the other key data fields are showing anything. This is making it hard to drill down into the specifics of where my profits (or losses) are coming from. Clearly, I need to make some changes to my tracking setup so I can capture the right information.
Overall, the first week has been slow, but that’s expected in the testing phase. My current plan is to launch at least 3 new campaigns per day, constantly testing different angles, geos, creatives, and placements. Once I find a few winners, I’ll start scaling hard toward my $100/day target.
I know this is going to be a grind, but I’m committed to pushing through. The key right now is to gather as much data as possible, make informed adjustments, and stay consistent with campaign launches.
I’ll keep updating this thread with performance numbers, insights, and any breakthroughs I come across. If you’ve got tips for tracking setup in Voluum or ideas for boosting conversion rates on low-payout offers, I’m all ears.
Here’s to week two being a step closer to that $100/day milestone!

To kick things off, I set up multiple campaigns across these networks. I even managed to get the same offer from two networks so I could compare results directly. This week’s stats have been a mixed bag:
- Offer #1 started showing traction almost immediately. By the end of the week, I had 34 conversions, which felt great considering I wasn’t sure I’d get any at all in the early stages. The payout for this one is only $0.12 per conversion, with a CPM of $3.06, so the revenue isn’t huge yet, but it’s a good sign the traffic is converting.
- Offer #2 (ES Sweeps) barely moved the needle with just one conversion so far.
- The Anti-Virus offers from Mobidea have yet to generate a single conversion, which means I’ll either need to optimize heavily or drop them in favor of better performers.
