A: According to some research I conducted for the Affstat 2007 Report, the actual number of affiliate programs based on the per lead or CPA model was just 19%. On the other hand, the per sale or revenue share affiliate programs accounted for 81% of affiliate programs.
Unless Google starts focusing on revenue share, I don’t think they pose a threat to the affiliate marketing industry.
Anyhow, I see Google CPA as more of another component of affiliate marketing that exists in tandem with the affiliate networks.
Just another option for merchants and affiliates, rather than being an “either/or” situation.
