Pay per action means you get paid only when the visitor performs the action defined by the advertiser. It can be sales lead, purchase of the product, click on the link. For example, the advertiser set that they will pay you $35 everytime someone agrees to purchase their product from your link.
Commission Junction http://www.cj.com is one of the leading sites that manages affiliate programs or cost per action programs where you can choose from various advertisers and sign up
Usually pay per action costs the person doing the advertising something everytime someone clicks on there advertisement. It’s like paying for leads. All the sites will tell you that they make sure your text ads are shown in all the right spots, but that’s hard to have happen a lot of times so do a lot of research if you’re thinking about trying something like Google Adwords and make sure that you’re niche isn’t over populated.
