To those of you who are running Performancing Ads, you might have already noticed that a couple or two square banner ads are now showing instead of the default ad.
Just so you don’t mistakenly take them as directly paid ads, they are actually Network CPA ads. It means that you only get paid if someone or any of your visitors will sign-up for whatever the ad offers. It could be some free membership or subscription or something.
Only then you get some sort of commission or fee for that action (Cost Per Action). This is basically almost similar to Amazon Associates or other affiliate programs. I’m not sure what the rate per action are and there’s nothing indicated in the Performancing Partners page either.
P.S.
Again, they indicate that they only pay via Paypal but it’s possible to ask them to also provide cheque remittances. We’ll see how that goes.
Agreed. Adsense is a waste of time if you know even smallest bit about marketing. Also Google has gotten greedy and is not only giving its adsense partners less but taking more from adwords advertisers.
Why somebody should give away 50% of his earnings? There are much better programs out there.
Google dislikes ad networks that mimic its visual style, and technology. Performing Partners Network has little in common with Adsense. I doubt if using both will create a problem for publishers.
Will this conflict with AdSense?
