Good article but I have to say that although most sites are in English the monetary potential for adding languages is not completely there. If 5 speak English and countries like China cant access porno, what?s the point? I know plenty of people who have internet access for years now and have yet to spend a single dime on a transaction. Much less on porno. I am not against putting other popular languages on porno sites but if I am a struggling webmaster it would be a waste of money to translate my sites. As much as I would like to get those 2 Chinese customers who cant access my domain because its filtered by the Chinese government and the 1 Japanese customer (who might spend some Yen) and the 3 Spanish speakers who might join. But with high credit card fraud in central and south America, why would I want them? I think, for the time being, because I am a struggling webmaster, I will stick to English.
Let me add this one thing, I have always wondered, and if anyone knows this please post it. If there were 100 people on earth, how many websites would there be per person? Both pay sites and free sites.
