And here is where we made our biggest mistake.

We have followed this route for years and look where we are today. Don't try to convince me we were doing it right for all those years.

Without content you have a blank page, even a link to another site is content. Is text content. The value of that link totally depends on the conversions at the other end of the chain.

Conversions brings money into the business that pays for the traffic. Those conversions rely on satisfied customers. Coming back to the site or coming back the Internet to BUY porn.

A site not doing this is a site fucking all of us.

Not at all. But it helps if you don't keep pushing the same broken system.
