PPS vs. Revshare

[Hell Puppy]

There's been a lot of talk on several boards about PPS vs. revshare from the advertiser perspective. Let's talk about it a bit from the publisher perspective.

Whose ads will you fly?

I dont care so long as the following criteria are met..

a ) i get paid
b ) the niche suits my traffic and most importantly;
c ) i like the company im promoting.

If you're in it long term having mostly PPS with a few choice RevShare is a good way to go

Two years ago the average Cloud 9 Cash webhamster earned .06 per click
But it took the entire year to get to that number
.06 per click is better than most programs can do
But again you have to be in long term

It's safer and quicker to get the $ as fast as possible but if you have the patience, time, $ and a compnay that will be there day in and day out, year in and year out it's nice to have a diverse portfolio to assure maxuimn earnings

Up until 12 months ago I was almost 100% PPS ... And still dont like revshare unless the program can average better than $20 per new signup. Which most can't for me.

I have tried lots of revshare programs for 3 or 4 month periods though.. and am noticing the ccbill checks are really adding up recently. I like that google did a shock and awe raid on my traffic last week and daily income is holding up a lot better than it would have a year ago too.. revshare does even out the bumps for a freesite traffic webmaster!

Wonder if there will be a RAW clicks program of any size again? ;-)))

in my return to the mix, I've been finding a HUGE difference in conversions. Traffic that converted 1:500 before converts now at 1:4200 (and that's not a random number) These long, one page bang your head tours don't convert for me, even with all the trailers.

Saturation is a big factor, as I'm finding that the BIG programs are releasing new sites very frequently to "create a buzz" in my eye. Trying to fill niches they're not familiar with. Your traffic whether it converts or not is revenue in the form of eyeballs on their ads if you choose to promote it.

I mean please, camel toes with one pube on the left and 4 on the right, green eyes and red hair dot com. (and no, I'm not picking on the camel toe site from a program I cannot recall)

Nichey programs with established sites is my next test. They'll have the content to retain those trials. Join the sites you plan to market, see if they will make your surfers happy. (huh? pay for porn? ) Just don't do it on your ad links, cancel your trial and look around. Surf like a surfer as a good friend of mine would say.

PPS has cornered the market IMHO, but, keep your eyes open and watch your traffic. I watch it like a hawk. It's amazing. I swap em out and look some more. 2 joins and 5000 front page hits with a reported ratio of 1:241. Give me a fucking break.

Above all, stop reading this tripe and get to work.

Happy New Year!

Nick please....You're a crook and I still like you, don't push it.

Bill, I still get rev share checks from you guys and I haven't sent traffic to you (or anyone, so I'm not singling you out) in a couple of years!

Nick the .06 figure is from the calendar year 2002
2003 was .043
I haven't finished the numbers for 2004

It would be a risky to go per click. Would have so many rules/regulations and spend a significant amount of fraud prevention.

Then again there always the if you don't convert at so and so you get switched to Revshare or if your traffic doesn't retain at so and so you get switched to Revshare
