Yes, having the same amount of traffic isn't "growing".

What you're trying to say then is ratios are down. I'm sure for some sites they're down. On the other hand, I'd bet some new sites and sites who are innovating have better ratios than older sites who are hoping that doing the same thing again and again will keep making them money.

It all goes back to innovating and breaking new ground like you are trying to do with your dating project. This industry moves FAST. This industry has only existed for 13-14 years and look how much change it has seen. If you sit still for a few minutes people are going to blow right by you. You can't build something and hope it will make the same or more money forever without you keeping it moving forward.
