PPS vs. Revshare
 

I have no preference really, I just see all the threads about it all the time.
My personal stats, sucky I know, but here it goes. Based on ~400k paysite hits spread across many many many sponsors. So some sponsors might be way better and some $0 than mentioned below.

Revshare average, 0,0168$/1st page unique
PPS average, 0,0174$/1st page hits (.. dunno if they're really 1st page though)

Just figured I'd let you know. This is mixed traffic, from tgp's, 404, freesites, whatever. :thumbsup

Interesting stats. How long was the timeframe?

Not saying. :)
..but the stats are all from 2006 though.

I have never promoted a revshare program with trials that paid out at least $30 per sale. The only one that has come close is Naughty America, but I'm lucky if any of my revshare+trial sponsors hit $20 per member...

I don't do trials in revshare.

Up until 2004 just about every revshare program I promoted paid out more than $35 per join (averaged). Now it's only a few that can still do that.

Me neither. It just doesn't make sense. Actually, a most of the non trial revshare programs I have picked over the years convert just as well as any PPS site with trials.

I promoted one site recently that did 1:181 on TGP traffic on $29.95 joins. Trials are overrated.

You'd be crazy if you did.
:2 cents:

Then how can you compare? Most PPS programs pay out on trials (yes there are lots of good programs that pay $30 on a $29.95 join as well, but they are the minority)... Unfair to compare IMO, you are getting the surfer to pay $1-5 instead of $30 up front.

What do you mean how do I compare?

I just did, how much money I'm making per unique visitor sent. The price has nothing to do with it.
