The pps model is a payout based on all the income from the site. Many sites that use pps don't have good members areas but rely mostly on cross sales, upsells, member mailouts etc etc. So your payout is a reflection of the total income from the site, not the surfer retention specifically.

Thats all well and good, but I have to admit that even though revshare only rewards you for good retention, revshare has been the big moneymaker for me this year ... whereas pps made me the majority of my income since 2001. All the pps programs I promote have just stopped converting .. strange.
