A cheap price has very little to do with it. I have 6 months of data and 1000s of sales to back this up. A consumer is willing to pay for something he WANTS. Thus the trick, giving them what THEY WANT. If you can do that, you don't have to whore out your product.

I've tried making the sites interactive. It failed. Most members do not leave comments. Most do not want to talk to each other. Most do not want to be interactive. Most all of them just want to beat off and go about their day, and if you have what they want, they come back to beat off again and again. If they want friends, they will login to Facebook, not a porn site.

Porn is not rocket science. Piracy, saturation and credit issues are the main issues hurting this business. If you can deliver what your customers want, price has nothing to do with it.
I said right in the first paragraph that I am not talking about lowering monthly membership fees. I would say this has virtually fuck all to do with conversions, maybe retention on the extreme end but not much different between $10 and $30.

While we're on the subject though, I put a paysite up with a friend years ago to win a bet. It cost $89 per month and converted at 1:200. I marketed it to people that frequented cam sites and used junk content and feeds from one of those cam places.
