So One Of My Accounts Got Switched To Revshare...

Yes but you are talking about conversions. That is different to member retention. The situation here is that the WM sent them clicks, and the clicks converted. But after a month or so the surfer decided "This site is not worth my money" and went elsewhere. This has nothing to do with how good/bad the webmaster who sent the click is, but how good/bad the website that the surfer signed up on is.

I do not consider myself a genius, but I keep surfers on average over 6 months. At that rate PPS is a lot better for me (I would pay less to the person who sent me the surfer) than revshare. In niches that I do not have sites, I send surfers to other sponsors, and I expect that site to be at least nearly as good as mine. If someone signs up with my sponsor I want them to stay (on average) at least five months, which I believe is the industry average (may not still be, it is a long time since I saw the stats). If they stay at least 4 months I am happy, but if the average is less than 3 months, it is bye bye sponsor. This has nothing to do with the quality of traffic that I send, or the conversion rate, simply on how good the site is.
