This business is winding down, not because of consolidation. Because of falling sales. The big companies are picking up the sales from smaller companies. Because smaller companies are unable to survive the decline in sales.

They're not picking up the business because they doing something radically different or better, just able to weather the storm better. The declining trend in sales will hit them and you eventually. If not already.

This is where the traffic is going.



They're not going there to pay for porn. Freeones is at the bottom and declining. Only a sample of surfers, but still a fair indication of where surfers are going.

Yes I've been telling you this for 10 years now.

"I've been telling you traffic isn't king. And getting it is the easiest job in porn"

The hardest thing to get is sales, that's why you need 1,000s of surfers to make a living. If selling online was as easy as selling offline porn was, you wouldn't need so much traffic. But you were cleverer than that. You guys decided to give porn away to get traffic. Then wondered why you needed so much traffic to make a sale.

And the answer was? Give away more free porn to get more traffic.
