I haven't seen evidence of the "revshare is better" thing on pretty much every program I promote... I know there's exceptions everywhere, but for me the rule is PPS only unless the PPS amount is low or it's an exceptional site in it's niche.

For example, with cams, a lot of cam sponsors are paying $100+. For me to average that on revshare, my surfers have to AVERAGE spending of $500 each... I know there are people who will, but every time I promote revshare cam sites I end up with a whole lot of $6 signups that die out after a few days.

Paysites? I know these guys can afford to pay me the $30-40 with all the xsells, upsells and ex-member mailings... VERY FEW sponsors have made me close to $30 a sale with the rebills on trials. Hell very few manage to do that with full monthly signups. Again, exceptions apply but they are few.

VOD? I've tried a couple, I'm sorry but the 10 cent payments don't excite me and they have not added up. I'll take a VOD sponsor that pays per signup like Adult Rental any day.

I know people won't agree with me, all I have to go on is my own experiences over the last 4 years, and I stick to em.
