You really have no idea what our ratios are Paul, like with Mr Brazzers here it wouldn't make sense to post them since you wouldn't believe me anyways.

Cheers
Well you could just post the Alexa stats to the places it's being redirected to.

The picture I see from the whole industry, including your sites, is that traffic to most non Tube sites is declining. Traffic to Tube sites is increasing. Ratios across the business are getting worse and worse.

Maybe you're doing something to buck the system and making more money with less traffic. I don't see the reason why. Want to show others who will believe you?

Can you show us where someone said Tubes aren't sending sales please. So we can tell the poster he's wrong.

Of course they send sales and I showed clearly they do. But 10,000 on a Tube site was worth a lot more on a TGP and would of been worth a lot more on a link list. The idea that giving free porn away created demand is stupid, it clearly satisfies too much of the need to buy.

I never heard the word marketing, in porn, used before online porn came along. Not because they didn't know how to do it. It just wasn't that important. They knew porn more or less sells itself. The amount of marketing needed is this.





And stick it on a shelf. If the customer liked the product, he bought it again and again. If he didn't he never bought that brand again. It really was that simple. The online porn business made it hard, throw out tons of free content for a product that doesn't retain and converts like shit. Then instead of making the product right, it spent more on free porn.

If 50 people walked into a porn shop and didn't buy, it shut it's doors. If 50 people look at a tour and 1 doesn't buy. Get another 50 people, then another and today it needs 500-1,000. But the the real loss is the numbers consuming free porn and never visit the tours.

Don't worry, Tubes make sales. Just shitty sales on the numbers of surfers on the site.

And that's what this thread is about. The numbers who hit the site, look at the porn, go to the tour and the number who buy.

Can we see it ?
If my video is better than anything on Mofos, I proved my point.

If it's not I've proved that the shooters who worked exclusively for online porn shooting custom. Were fools.

It's a win-win situation for me. Plus I got $3,000 for an afternoons work.

It's not about what I can shoot. It's about what I could sell it for.

I've seen the stills and have a copy here, which will be deleted when I hear from Manwin they have it all fine. I nailed the stills set. It's far superior to what I've seen on any site online, except sites like DDF, Viv Thomas and other offline shooters.

The video I'm not so sure about, I'm sure the construction of the scene is great, the model was great and the framing was better than most online shooters. And that's what really counts. Sound, well I explained that one and will have to see what the finished product came out like.

And I should of taken a monitor and admit I forgot that.

So like you I'm waiting to see the final edited scene.

What's the news Fabian?
