I am wondering for those who do either pay site tubes, or traffic tubes, (assuming you are getting quality traffic versus Turkey/Chinese/etc.) look similar in regards to your stats?
Traffic Tube:
Pay Site Tube:
A couple of quick notes to keep in mind. I deal in fetish/niche, so these are not mainstream tubes sites. Also they are not going to be junk traffic, and volume. They are going to be more targeted/SEO driven. I mention this only to be fair in that regard as a mass volume, untargeted site's numbers will be different.
On the traffic tube, the thing that really surprised me was the extremely low bounce rate. Especially considering that site is almost all TRAILERS for video clips (15-60 seconds). Not the typical tube site clips of 20 minutes or whatever they are.
On the pay site tube, those show a 30 second preview from the beginning of the scene. After that, they either buy or move on.
While it may not be of interest to anyone else in regards to the tube site discussion. I found it interesting in the patterns and trends. Either way, the tube site model, even against old
traditional pay sites (wizard behind the curtain business model), does much better in regards to my own markets.
I would have to pull the CTR for the same time period, but if memory serves. The tube site's CTR was also much higher than the traditional sites and blogs. With the exception of one old TGP I still had. Which for some reason gets a shit load of CTR.
Anyway, enjoy.
