Increased Fraud and the impending release

revenue streams.
Hmmmmmm.

I think you're right -- there WILL be a shakeout.

But this doesn't reflect on the PPS approach.

It reflects on the fact that many programs are OVER-EXTENDING themselves to attract traffic by offering PPS payouts they can't sustain.

Basically, they are betting: "I can get the cash coming in fast enough to cover the affiliates I WANT to keep, by stiffing a whole bunch of little guys."

But PPS, in and of itself, remains a sound compensation approach -- so long as the sponsor program is RESPONSIBLE enough to offer an amount that their conversions will actually sustain.

The big $70 here!, $130 there! boasts WILL dry-up, because they can only suffer negative ROI for so long, or until a critical mass of pissed-off affiliates has been reached.

What you want to look for are the STEADY, ALWAYS PAY programs.

There's nothing wrong with PPS, only the way its fraudulently mis-used by some programs.
