The cost an advertiser pays per sale This is a very common method of selling advertising You receive a credit for a sale when a web surfer clicks on one of the ads on your site and ends up buying something from your advertiser's site A sale does not always occur directly after the click as most advertisers will have a certain time during which both the sale and click thru must occur in order to receive credit This time period is often called the 'cookie duration' The revenue you receive for CPS programs tends to be a fixed percentage of the overall sale This is not always the case as many pay a fixed dollar amount per sale
