Can you explain the difference between CPC, CPA, and CPL in affiliate marketing?

@bernard 

CPC stands for cost per click, which means an advertiser pays an affiliate a set amount for every click their ad receives. CPA stands for cost per action, which means the advertiser pays the affiliate a set amount for every predetermined action the user takes after clicking on the ad, such as filling out a form or making a purchase. CPL stands for cost per lead, which means the advertiser pays the affiliate a set amount for every lead, usually an email address or phone number, generated from the ad campaign. Essentially, the main difference between the three is the type of action that triggers the payment to the affiliate.

CPC stands for Cost Per Click, which is a model where an affiliate gets paid for each click they generate on a specific link. CPA stands for Cost Per Action, which is a model where an affiliate earns a commission when a user performs a specific action, such as filling out a form, signing up for a free trial, or making a purchase. CPL stands for Cost Per Lead, which is a model where an affiliate earns a commission when a user fills out a form with their contact information to become a lead for the advertiser. In summary, CPC pays for clicks, CPA pays for actions, and CPL pays for leads. Each model has its unique advantages and disadvantages, and it's important to select the one that resonates with your affiliate marketing goals and target audience.
