No industry can lose that much traffic to free sites and not take a massive hit. Not just porn any product will see sales revenue plummet when 100s of millions can get it for free. These people used to buy porn, back in the day when 1,000 clicks on a link was worth $100s it's now worth $10. Assuming you can get that. I was using Nextri's figures which we might assume were him spamming his traffic. Maybe other traffic people can tell us what bulk traffic coming off a tube is worth.

And what's the chance of Mr average affiliate ever being able to afford to get into these levels of traffic? slim to none, the business has left a lot behind.

We always thought traffic was a bottomless pit and because of that the more traffic we got the more sales we made. Traffic from rich countries isn't bottomless, with buyers definitely we reached the bottom and now it's just a fight to get a sale off the other guy 99% of the time. Argue with 99% you still know what I mean.

We sell predominately to a limited number of countries. They have slowed down on new connections and most of them are not rushing online to buy porn today.



It would be if it wasn't heard every day and the only way for most to save their asses.
