I have some questions feel free to tackle.

1. How do you up the trial to full member conversions? I experimented with full access all the way do to 3 vids, 2 vids, then zero video for trial area, and so far giving them nothing but thumbs & upgrade links is the best for conversions, but it's still not 2007 fantastic.

2. How do you maintain order and not have to mod all day on a members forum in a members area full of members who all joined at very different price points from $5 retention people all the way upto $39. I tried once and everyone just got pissed off cause some guy posted he was in for $5 a month.

3. For a small staff, what is best to allocate time to, please put this in order of priorities you would have:

Affiliate pic galleries
Affiliate WMV/MPG video galleries
Affiliate FLV gals
Affiliate banners

4.For retaining members, which is best

adding new sites to the members area (combined members area)
adding various exclusive content site/niche oriented leased feeds
adding leased DVD feeds
improving the CMS, CMS development

5. Marketing budget, whats the allocation priority to get more revenue.

1. Buying banner spots to directly sell your own sites to surfer
2. Buying gallery spots to directly sell your own sites to surfer
3. Hiring someone to get email marketing lists to send CANSPAM compliant emails to potential members.

4. Buying banner spots to recruit affiliates
5. Buying webmaster email lists & paying for affiliate mailings to recruit affiliates.
