That can be attributed directly to the fact that tubes and torrent sites are getting all that traffic. 4 years ago AL4A was way over 900.000 uniques a day. So that should tell you something.
Grampland.com was doing 150,000 uniques (real traffic NOT blindlinked in any way) Now I'm lucky to have 40,000 a day.

So that tells me when whales go down like that, the "little" guys are now miniscule guys. So for claudia-marie.com I'm still seeing the sales come pouring in...but only a few affiliate sales. Mostly type ins. Good for me! Bad for the free site business. I know that I can't make a lot of sales from Grampland.Com or ShavedGoat.Com anymore. I simply don't have enough traffic to make sales like that anymore.

For me, it's not that big of a deal. Claudia-Marie.Com will always do great on type in and search engine traffic. As will most popular solo girl sites.

Anyway, that's my take on it. The days of every sig whore on GFY being an affiliate and making money are over. Only the guys who know how to work traffic will survive.
