If you read my post from a week ago First PepperJam Commission, you’d know that I was extremely impressed with nailing down my first commissions using Pepperjam Network. It only took about one week and 6700 impressions for my first conversion using PepperJam and the overall results, including number of clicks and eCPM have me singing praises about PepperJam’s innovative CPA program.
Now it’s a week later and has been two weeks since I’ve signed up with PepperJam and I wanted to do a little follow-up about how my second week using PepperJam has concluded.
As of today, I’ve had a total of three conversions for $41.50 in commissions. Incredible, for two weeks in this program to have already brought down close to $50 in commissions from a mere 108 clicks makes PepperJam one of the most lucrative CPA programs I’ve ever experienced. As of today, PepperJam is averaging around $.38 per click (at least three times my Adsense eCPM). It also seems that the PepperjamADS widget invites more clicks than any other ads I’ve used in the past. The beautiful part is that you don’t have to be paranoid about inticing clicks to your ads like you have to be when using Google Adsense.
It seems to me that Google Adsense’s policy of restricting who, what, when and where we get our clicks from and their policy of banning publishers without notice makes having Google Adsense on your site a liability more than a monetization vehicle. Considering the fact that PepperJam network advertisers are not paying per click but per conversion, the stress, hassle and potential loss of earnings with Adsense make using it old hat.
Many of my loyal readers here and my friends at DigitalPoint or Code4Gold fourms are aware of the circumstances surrounding my being unfairly banned by Adsense last November, right before Christmas and my two biggest Adsense months ever. Although I was re-instated by Adsense a few weeks later, it was nonetheless upsetting that they confiscated *ALL* of my October and November earnings (appx $1700) and have refused to make ammends for literally taking my children’s Christmas presents from under the tree.
While I still use Adsense (reluctantly) to fill 10-15% of my ad space, I still cringe every time I load a page with Adsense or login to my account that they will pull the same business on me again eventually.
With PepperJam, each time I login to my account, there are no suprises, unless you consider seeing fantastic commissions a suprise !!! I’d say that PepperJam is a knockout on Google Adsense, not only for publishers but for advertisers as well. Kudos to PepperJam Network on the victory !!!

I love PepperJam. It’s one of the best CPA networks ever !! Congratulations on the excellent earnings Dave !!
I’m going to be checking out PepperJam. I’ve been less than pleased with Google Adsense. Thanks for the info.
Thanks for this review. Maybe I must try PepperJam Network too
Hey, I’ve been hearing about them more and more lately. Maybe they’re worth a try.
That’s very impressive. I’ve been using adsense for a while, and made a decent income, but they’re a tyrant, and most challenging to deal with. If you piss them off you’re screwed. Glad to see some other programs starting to prevail here!
Thanks for the info.
I tell you Adsense is a big time sucker. I would always prefer CPA networks like pepperjamads - at least they don’t deny our sales and steal our commissions.
PepperJam is a really nice network it has tons of options, and products. Even though it is relatively new compared to other programs, it is receiving very good reviews everywhere including forums and blogs. Another really nice fact about PepperJam is that you can enroll in other programs they promote from inside the network itself instantly.
I am wondering why I didn’t know about that. I am going to join that for one of my sites and i shall be posting my comments after a week or so.
You have to have more data to start bragging about EPC, at only 3 conversions I wouldn’t put all your eggs in that basket yet. That being said, I like Pepperjam and what they are doing over there…
Is it time to say “Good Bye” to Google Adsense? Truly, I don’t believe on most of advertising sites because they don’t pay and have very lame excuses near to pending check.
Looking for new info and i ended up here, reading your blog grats lotsa work into it
Great to finally have a viable alternative, thanks for those numbers, they rock!
If you think the numbers I posted in this article are good, you should see my numbers for the last week which makes those look like fish food !!
