No, it is simple: YOU CAN'T COMPETE WITH FREE.
As an affiliate, neither I nor anyone else can have the kind of traffic numbers we once had when every surfer in the world knows about Pornhub. And we can't have the kinds of sales numbers we once had when every surfer in the world knows about bit torrents and file sharing sites.
It's no longer a handful of folks who have "inside info" on where to get free shit (the way it always was before). Now, it's every kid in high school already knows to go to Pornhub to watch and rapidshare to download.
You tell me. How do I compete with that? How do any affiliates compete with that?
There's a good reason why so many affiliates have left the business.
There are still some like myself who still make enough money to make a damn good living. But it's NOT what it was just 2 years ago. Instead of 90 grand a month...it's 25 grand a month. And that's here on the high end.
The guys who were making 10 grand a month a couple of years ago are all but done now.
