The majority of you are still selling content and doing direct sales to people.

IE: Build a website that has content, sell something through banners and links. A trend that has been dieing all over the Internet, YEARS before Tubes came around.

I look back at our Industry and I see people design better, but still build the exact same thing as we did, 2, 5, and 10+ years ago. Just because the quality of the content has improved, doesn't mean - we have advanced forward.

Free porn STILL drives us, it STILL can produce godly amounts of sales. The thing is 90% of you are trying to sell people, on methods PROVEN not to work anymore. It's why TV, Magazine, Newspapers, etc sales / ads, buying power is down.. They sell - the same way we do.


People STILL generate 100's into the 1000's of sales a day. But they aren't doing it with 10 year old marketing techniques.


Edit: One last thing.... 80's porn was published on VHS, 70's in magazines, DVD's came in, 90's Interent, mediums changed again... It's almost 2010, what do you think most people missed?
