This is not to disagree with your post but to show my personal evaluation of PPS vs. revshare.

Seeing as how webcam sites can have a customer lifetime value of $700 or more, then even at a bare minimum 10% revshare model you would make an avg. of $70 per sign-up.

Considering the sliding scales most use (both PPS and revshare) then, say, 35% - the max revshare for this example - would bring you $245 over the lifetime of the customer. There is no PPS cam program that I know of that will pay more than $100 per-sign up ... and if you get a great deal or are extra special, even $200 PPS would net you less in the long run.

So while you get more up-front, like you suggest, in the end there is no comparison with a good, converting cam program - and a high payout % obviously helps!

Another advantage for revshare is that even if the huge majority of your traffic comes from one site, and something catastrophic happens to it, you can still be earning money for months (even years) while with PPS, essentially, once you stop sending traffic your income will vanish almost entirely, and much quicker.
