Why ExoClick Outperforms Affiliate Programs in Revenue

Even With a Smart Link: Affiliate Earnings vs. ExoClick (POP-Only Traffic)

November 2025 Traffic Results

Visits: 28,457

Uniques: 13,635

Conversions: 5

Conversion Rate: 0.04%

Affiliate Earnings: $1.41

This was POP-only traffic, and we even used a smart link to maximize performance yet the results were still terrible.

For comparison, the same POP traffic on ExoClick would have earned around $2 CPM or higher, meaning $58+ in revenue.

The affiliate program paid $1 instead of $58.

This perfectly shows why POP traffic almost always performs better under CPM monetization than low-return “smart link” affiliate programs.

Thanks for the info. It seems you are finding out that adult traffic is worth less and less due to the recent threads you are starting.

Is that all traffic or just dating, cam or general adult traffic?

You use your own pop script code to the smart link?

Follow the money trail... see which advertisers are paying $2CPM on Exo then send traffic direct to that affiliate program.
