Sweetheart, you're an affiliate. You shouldn't be dictating the price, you get what ever is given.
The reason adult is in the shitter is the affiliate program. For some absurd reason the fools who got online porn going thought they needed guys like you to sell porn.
They didn't, but over the years by over paying them, breast feeding them the affiliates became a barrier to paysites, then it was needed. Now the damage is clear, over priced shitty sites, with a nice design in HD.
If every single affiliate got swallowed up into a black hole tomorrow, online porn would survive and do a lot better. Sites could be built to suit customers, content shot to suit customers, people working for the sites could work to help customers and there would be less free porn.
The bullshit spouted by morons of "Try getting a sign up without any traffic" is typical. Ito them it means try getting porn sales without affiliates.
Try stopping men looking for porn. Affiliates are a hindrance to sales.
