Yup. There are people like the nastydollar crew though that only offer PPS and you know they are retaining like mofos.

It's really on a case by case basis and once you have enough traffic giving stuff a try. You might look at greenies stats for example and see he is running something through PPS, but for you your overall $$$ per surfer works out better for revshare from your own tests.

Just working it out and trying to get a decent sample over time. I for sure with new programs generally roll at first with what I see from stats of greenie, marc, etc. what they are using with the program and if I'm not happy that's when I might try to change things up if the program has that option.

If still I can't get it to convert well I leave the freestuff out there but banner links and other places I might remove or trickle it down on the pages to other spots where maybe I've tried to sell them on other sites in the niche before hand.

Cheers,
