As I have said in other threads on this same subject. My ratios (sig) remain consistent. HOW I make my money has changed to get to my end of month number.
For example, I used to make more money on DVD and memberships then clip sales. Now it can be some months more clip sales then the other. So clips make up the money I lose in recurring membership. Same customers. Just opting to pay more with buying individual clips. Or I will have a month where members want to buy custom content. So they pay for tailored material to the script they submit.
The traffic, and HOW I make my money is different. The end result, or ball park, is the same month to month more a less. I typically look at the year's and compare, not 7 months. So I would have to look.
However, the point is, over all. My 'sales' or company 'profits' as defined in this thread continue to go up, to remain stable despite the economy. If you have never competed in a niche market with exclusive, original content, I can understand your disbelief. But I stand by what I've posted in this, and other threads on the subject.
Niche is not the same rules as mainstream porn. There is not as much of it, nor tons available on tubes. So the patrons have to PAY FOR IT. Plus, smaller niche players are more dedicated to protecting, and policing our content.
