:2cents Sharky - The State of the Adult Affiliate Program

Quote:
We've got Michael "Sharky" Vifquain in the house again this week for a special "State of the (online adult affiliate) Industry" interview. We talk about the continued changes happening in the adult affiliate world and what his expectations are for the future. Where we are and where we are going. Its a good interview of someone who has been there and done that for many, many years. So listen up, or you just might be at the helm of the next program that shuts its doors...

-What is the status of the online adult industry today?
-What are your predictions for where the online adult industry is headed?
-Are Adult Dating and Webcam sites going to continue their rein of profitable superiority or are they quickly headed to obsolescence like the traditional pay site model? (and what about MyFreeCams.com?)
-How is affiliate fraud helping to push the evolution of the affiliate program into a private, closed "boys club"?
-What new business models could we see come out of this evolution?
-Is free content and illegal tube sites really the biggest problem online adult industry business owners face?
-How does GFE play into how things are changing?
-Is good customer service the "new" marketing?

Sharky is a hired gun right now working with some of the top firms to improve their business practices and internet marketing execution. If you wish to get in contact with him, do so at EMAIL: mike [at] vifquain.com or ICQ: 1242876
