Porn paysite model is slowly dieing as a whole tho it seems. This January was worse than Last Jan for sales on tours I worked on all year. Could just be a bad month tho.

Better lately but the mid month lull was extra hard this month.

Saturation looms over you to swoop down QUICK as soon as you think you got a good thing in this biz as an affil or paysite owner.

We are all going to have to start building mainstream sites eventually which maybe in the end wont be so bad.

I think if you can build good sites that serve the populace and survive in the meantime till they are successful maybe there is a light.

But in porn as I see it now. It is pretty sad really as a whole.

Yes I make money but will I make money in five years or even two years or will it be dead or dieing still.

Will it be further leveraged down to 100 big sites who give away the whole farm.

I guess it already is. Just a matter of time till noone buys porn or it will take 10,000 unique hits to get a sale and rising..

Actually since I convert at 1 in 1000 to 1 in 1500 still on some stuff, maybe I am just being negative. But that took 15 years of savvy to accomplish. Still i sense the pie went elsewhere (tubes? forums? traffic leveraging required?)

Generally the money does not come easy for most newbs that is for sure.


The problem is it has taken more traffic month on month to achieve the same number of sign ups, with a few exceptions. While new people were coming online in places which were likely to buy it was fine. Because the growth made up and more for the drop of sales per 1,000. Today that growth in online connections in the Western World has slowed down. Then there are Tubes and piracy to take into the equation.

So yes you can still get sales if you have enough traffic, but that is one man's gain and another man's loss. Often the man gaining is doing so by giving away more free porn which in turn means a lowering of the sales per 1,000.

Now a few sites who started out on the right route can withstand this trend, like Met Art, they started with a very good standard and got better. They can afford to add great new content that beats others and keep members. The rest even in the golden days of easy money either couldn't or wouldn't compete with offline porn to get the best.

It's no secret we could earn $3,000 from a single set, minimum on a Readers Wives" set like these ones was $300 from magazines only. Sometimes a set would sell for $1,000 because an editor thought the girl was super hot. Then we got to keep the set and sell it out on the stores.

The money on a BG or GG set was higher, if shot right.

This isn't just me, it's the same for most offline shooters of any good and lets face it according to most here I'm crap.

Now then which site or program could compete with these prices and which one did? Then think of 2-5 sets or videos a day as updates. This is what most sites face. So the members realised if they stayed a member, they would get a little bit of new stuff every day, much like what they had seen for a month or two and a better way was to move on and for $30 get access to a brand new site full of new content.

Or for the wary, compile a list of their favorite sites, stay a month or two, see all the new stuff and then move onto the next in their list. And go around until the end of the list, then back to the start. Yes a few members stayed on, but who has an average of more than 3 months in a mainstream niche?

As you predict there's little that will turn it around. It's too late.

Aden I'm not having a dig at you, rather the business today. When was the last time you were paid $3,000 to shoot a solo girl set? Yes today the market is gutted. 5 years ago that was normal. Selling a set from the stores 10 times at $300 was normal and low, then add the video, then see signature. Few paysites could compete with that level of costs.

Was real. Another day of avoiding the world. All except you, my partners in crime.

up all night, sleep all day
i know what you're doing

you dont think it's showing

It's not what it was a few years before...far away from it.
Sales are going down and we need to work much much harder and use much more creativity.
The one who say that nothing had changed, i guess don't have a paysites.

There's so much more opportunity these days. Back in 2000 when i started the big guys were Joe E, Max Cash, ARS, Ron, Dani etc..

Now days, ( it seems ) X Hamster alone is larger than all combined.

In Vegas, guys were showing me reports of member area traffic converting at 1-8, recurrings still at 3 to 1 vs initials. sites converting 1-200 off tubes.

These are awesome days for paysites. It's just a different world now days. I don't think we're seeing programs and sites going down as rapidly as we have the last couple of years. Things seem to have stabilized for a lot of people.

Vegas was a damn good show. My first in 8 or so years. Things are looking up for the ones that changed.

Quite the night. Good morning Delivering Pizzas for 6 1/2 years night shift.. I still feel best at 3:00 am and worst at 3 pm. Still sleep days when I can.

Thank you all (and the op) for letting the old man shoot the shit I really should start my own threads when I go off on tangents but I dont like the "responsibility" of dealing with what I might say the next day hehe

Right now I need a lil mellow something..

flow river flow
let your waters wash down
take me from this road
to some other town



do you use an expectorant Cyberhustler?
or are you just young and tough

Guaifenesin is your friend lol Did you know only one company can legally produce guaifenesin.. it was illegal from 1950 till the law was overturned ONLY for this company in 2006. That company would be Pfizer. That medication would be Robitussen.



hey Paul, thx for the response.

I guess what you are saying and what I also seem to see is that most paysites are not buying new content anymore or adding new sites that are updated. My best current recurring prog recurs at about 2 months on ave for all signups. That is not real good.

Yes I have some old progs that boiled down to maybe 2-3 remaining members who recur a bit longer. But they are the exception and it took a few years of sending traffic to end up with a couple "golden members".

Last of the month and first of the month are usually alright but mid month tends to suck which tells me that many people are just tapped out on the ole budget.

I think if people have money they will always buy porn, tho they are more picky. But give em something with some value (and not only say 200 vids) and they will still buy.

The trouble is there are few paysites with real perceived value compared to what is available free.

Anyhoo, this is all a firm grasp of the obvious lol

Sooooo, not much new to add so I'll just say, "have luck" with your sales everybody, as TC would say

it's alright ma, im only sighing



you've been hanging on to it
and i sure would like a hit



if you want to be a bird
why don't you try a little flying
there's no denying
it gets you high

when you've got wings
you haven't used yet
don't wait for heaven
get out and fly



shouts to my man CH but what is a spectre?



yes I thought of baddog while doing this

"have luck" on your sales

My route? Retirement on the money made from shooting non exclusive porn for 30 years.

So the people you shoot for having given you access to their stats.
The people you work with who are buying non-exclusive content is why they are doing worse. People need to use good exclusive content these days if they think they'll have a chance. There are few exceptions to this rule.

Hey Gabe Good points.

Members area traffic is a diff ballgame tho than converting raw traffic.

I also find that once you have a member they can recur so it would seem that members might indeed be upselling.

I guess what you are also saying (and seen) is as long as you have a tube with big traffic you will generate sales and those will then upsell.

But Mr Markham is still fundamentally right as tubes are still leveraging traffic to reap a few remaining members.

Did they tell you what traffic (impressions) is needed to generate a certain number of clicks (ctr) to then generate a certain signup ratio?

Sure once you have a member all is fine but getting members.. is that easier or converting better on x traffic than 5 years ago.

Tubes are simply leveraging traffic. Ratios are sky high but as long as you have tons of traffic sure certain ones will always buy.

I could be wrong but I dont think I am. Anyhow thanks for the input.

It's not just exclusive with non-exclusive content...
let's take solo sites as example.
A few years ago, you could have a nice looking girl, take 100 sets of her and make mad money.
Those days, you need much hotter girl, more quality content, non stop interaction with members, cam- shows and the list go on. And on the and , you won't make as much as before with just 100 bought sets.

Thanks man. That means a lot. I take it you are over 40.

I just have to take the music with me. Then when noone responds to my posts hehe (usually) I have something to listen to. I try to keep to my own threads but sometimes I cant resist.

I was in a good mood yesterday and when I am in a good mood.. vids

This is the other side of the coin and I hear ya. No more vids (or walls of text) in this thread.

I also messed up the last post's vids, lol misplaced "if you want to be a bird".

Tony, sometimes to make a point you have to use more than two sentences but I hear ya man. I dont read most long posts either.

Hopefully noone will read all my posts. That is sort of the intention. Then I can say some stuff.. that only those who read it all will gather. Not that there is anything to gather but could be.

I noticed that everyone's favorite corporate pig (Google) now no longer allows you to skip ads.

Which really sucks. So far they dont put as many ads on embeds but they do have them on lots more local YT vids now.

Jump the shark! Lets hope so. Google sucks and will eventually become too thought out like all good, bloated, corporate pigs with too many braniacs on the payroll who need to keep changing shit to earn their bloated incomes.

If someone would like to make a logical reply to how an industry takes that sort of hit without shrinking I would love to read it. "I'm doing better than ever." Doesn't cut it.

I love the 10 years after crowd! Now about 44-45. YOU guys ARE the coolest generation. Yes even cooler than my gen (50s) which is second coolest. yes even cooler than those in the 60's who are third coolest. You guys in your 60s are major cool and could really write and play music but when it comes to cool.. the guys in their 40's.

I am currently po'd abit with Google as you can see. Leave that sig up a while.

I uninstalled ICQ. Fact is I hardly ever chat but only to a few guys. Prob my biggest mistake. I am always out of the loop.

If ya got an email.. or hit me at vjogfy - gmail.com

Yes I use the corporate pig's email.

Sigh .. What a tangled web we weave.

Quitting writing now so Tony doesnt have to read anymore.

You know that reading is tough stuff. LOL

PS I removed about 5 smileys.

But me, you and yt did have our moments didnt we. It is sort of a sad day. No use me being around if the music is not in my sig.

I guess embeds still work tho.

Here is the thing with the vids seriously.

1) They make NO diff in my load time and I have only 1.5 MBps speed.

2) When I see a vid, I look at it, if I like it I may play it. If not move on to the next post.

I posted in one thread the last seven days, this one, and STILL some of you anal retentive FUCKS still cant handle a couple vids.

Pussies.

You can make good money (still) it depends on what you sell and how you sell it. It's harder of course but with all the file sharing sites going down, we might have a brighter futur.

Be honest, who would have thought this possible one week ago ?

Amen. My signups went up the day it was announced and have been better since.

adendreams,

If you like the "cut of my jib" as Spunky says check out the threads in the first line. They are extreme posting at its finest. Videos to the max. Lots of fun. I have never really had more fun online than making them threads.

In one I earned the only "great. fucken. thread." EVER from garce

The wild west one with our own special guest baddog is STILL in progress and someday will be bumped. Maybe when bd gets more GREAT pics. (which they all are)

I consider it to be my craziest and really my best. Insane posting. But I need pure THC to ever get there again lol. (pill form) I worked on some of them for 48 hours straight. Little nap.

With EVERY poster locked in eternity as a friend IN the GREATEST set of FUN threads EVER to be posted on this hate filled site. LOL

j/k.. for the record.. I have NEVER used drugs of ANY kind EVER. Shame on you for thinking so.

Well ok maybe an Annie or two.

And yes Jakez all images are up (again). lol I love Jakez. Really. Jakez posts real f'n info. I just wish we could talk Juicy sometime in private buddy.

Mind you aden (may I call you aden )

These threads were done real time OR they could have been better. The idea was for the surfer (you) to be able to reload and it continues on or damn near.

Towards the end it took me around three hours to prepare posts like in the Outlaw West thread when I became obcessed on toping myself. But the early ones really moved.

Must mention my early cohort in crime Mister Peabody and my later cohort Spunky. With a special appearance by ADG, CD, and many more SUPERSTARS and mostly cool guys!

I just need ONE guy saying my vids and pics are OK and that they are enjoying themselves, and it is fun times at least for me. Love music. Love babes. Love pics. Love getting high on Annies.

And that is what they are all about.

great stuff aden



..good fucken stuff man.. love this rendition

if you cant dig this at 4am (the US is all that matters j/k ) then GFY man.

Guys like this shit so fuck off if you can't dig it.

There is NOTHING going on now in THIS thread more important. Only dropped9 has a say and he is cool.

and we STILL have $100,000 put up by 12 Clicks Cash for anyone who can tell us WHO the middle Hawaiian guitarist is. He is great.

If someone would like to make a logical reply to how an industry takes that sort of hit without shrinking I would love to read it. "I'm doing better than ever." Doesn't cut it.
Amen. Fact is Paul everything I said and MOST j/k lol (are we having fun? ) of what you say is true.

The answer? Get a tube and throw up more content than the other guy.

Mind you I dont mind all this. I buy from tubes all the time.

I like tubes. Really. Like I said before, in the old days you had these TGP jackasses j/k who you had to give a reach around and your left nut to get a gallery on their precious high traffic site.

Fuck them. Tubes are way easier to get traffic from and ALLOW lil guys to get some traffic and maybe grow.

So I love tubes. Win-Win. Tubes stay is fine. Tubes (and forums) go. SE traffic explodes. Traffic period explodes. But that will likely never happen. Certainly legal full video tubes are here to stay. Unless maybe COPA comes back.

Thanks ! I actually ranked for the first time yesterday... I am last but one, with 1.5 points, but I am up against people that actually OWN the pinball machines, and as such, can practise 24/7 if they want


Great day though ! Cant wait for the next one - In March

Let me answer you with a question... Do you like breathing?

(THAT IS NOT A 'THREAT')

What I mean is, you breathe every day, and you dont think about it... While at the same time, we all take a poo nearly every day, and dont think about it...

Well, I DO think about it, and I like it... Hope that explains things

You're ideas about this business are wrong and we know it. We also know that if you challenge the bottom rung mentality of the group, you get every troll who's registered attacking you.
There's nothing unique going on here, the dumb are just being squeezed out.

They admit they still check in daily to keep up on the happenings, just no longer post.

Pinball is f'n fun espec if you are plaing in a league or such.

And agreed.. getting it out is very important LOL Never underestimate poo

Do yourself a favor. Click "melodies"

You know..

Thread is pretty entertaining tho IF you like old music. Last time we got ole MP to party down a bit.

Had a young happening dude (barcodes) hitting me with some new good stuff.

We have a name the drug contest, stoner babes and I am only 1/10 in.

Melodies has it all if I say so myself.

Fact is porn is not dead. There are a ton of lurkers but only a few posters. That is the deal.

Look around, lots of threads get big views lately. Lots of new people lurking and reading. Just a few of us schmoes waste our time posting.

I believe it. You dont see as many guys posting odd pics and one liners anymore like a year ago.

There are a lot of lurkers tho. This thread increased by 400 views over night. Granted I kept it bumped but still. Every thread has a lot of views. More than a year ago.

More viewers, less threads. Altho to me there are plenty of threads. Who (besides you pj ) can keep up to what are there now.

What threads - you mean if I search your profile? Don't be shy post the links!

And what is an "Annie" - sounds like good shit

Aden just got your email. I will mull it over. Going to bed soon. (my hours are all f'd up, dont ask ) But thanks for the consideration.

Ok, click "crime babes" in my sig. My best thread. We need ONE vote for Alyssa Milano (late surge ) to tie Heather Locklear at 8! Never ending poll! That goes for all of you lurkers.

Force a run off! It is a killer thread tho I must say. I spent three hours going thru it this morning.

Annies are..



3 appearances by MP and 3 by Spunky (The Spunk Spunkster)

Im not shy. The entire top row are my threads...

LOLOL Thanks man. You made my night. It was fun. Sometimes I get the urge but it is a lot of work. I make it look easy.

I must say tho in all honesty. When I go back and read I am pleased. Of course I like the music, the pics, the humor, it all, cause it is my tastes.

But crime babes, melodies (which is similiar) outlaw west if you are really fucked up sheena summer which I (and garce) really like (maybe my most inspired thread), tv stars where you can still vote (to knock off Christina Applegate) has a ton of super high res pics and some older ones that had the images hosted on photobucket.. which I deleted.. sorry.

But all these threads in my sig are 100% image intact and also 100% video intact. I was amazed, No broken vids yet. Not one.

And I will keep all the images up from now on

I think you talents are a little wasted here in the monkey cage though - I highly suggest you start a blog with ALL of your threads and posts. THAT would be somethin.. I dare say could even be slightly profitable

I must have had conversations with hundreds of porn surfers in real life about this in the last year and a half. The general consensus is people don't like cookie cutter paysites. They just want to load a tube, squeeze one out and go on about their day as quickly as possible. Not worry about cross sales and card banging after a whole signup process.

Thanks. Ya know I was just thinking I wish I owned the threads but yeah never too late to start.

I would like to find guys who could maybe build on a thread. They would have YT's enthusiasm for old music but GFY's excellent board and system.

Someone build one and put me to work. I dont know how we would make any money tho.

Thing is YT embeds do not work on any old html page. (last time I tried anyhow) I think you need licensing or something. But otherwise I could start a blog. Good idea.

Still not in bed but soon. Ever stay awake till noon lol
