Well the next hole will be more people going the Pimp roll move. When will we see big sites decide it would be easier and more profitable to turn their members area into a free tube site?
I'm a small fish, but get 10,000s of hits. Which everyone knows the conversion rate of. I convert all the FHGs, hosted banners, etc. To adverts for a free site.
The traffic comes and as we know with Tubes it sticks. Buy some, acquire some, get some guys to upload more videos, add free sponsors videos. And before you know it I'm selling ad space and affiliates have yet another hole in their ass.
I'm small fry and before you tell me I can't do it. I could, what if other bigger goes go that route?
Shap was on that route already, he looked at what Manwin was offering and the thought of going the full Tube route must of crossed his mind. He took the money and ran. Soon Manwin's offers won't be good enough to make others take the money and run.
Then MFC is already a thorn in web cams side. How long before another thorn gets stuck in?
Free Dating exists. When it grows it will take business from the "adult" dating sites.
This is evolution of the free porn model. We never stopped at giving away a biscuit to sell a packet, we gave away the packet.
So what happens then?
The advertisers and traffic buyers on Tubes can't pay for what they do now for the ads, ad and traffic prices drop. Tubes and everyone else feeding off the free porn model do what. Adjust their operation to a slimmer model?
Or will it implode and people will have to pay? That is the most unlikely scenario ever. More likely trolls will think about what I'm saying.
If you have traffic the easiest way to judge the future is to look at your ratios. Were they better or worse than this time last year? Not traffic flow, ratios. Getting more traffic to fill the leaking bucket has got us to here.
It works for the one getting the traffic, until the one losing it takes the traffic back. The growth in online connections IN THE PLACES WE CAN SELL TO isn't replacing the losses now.
And anyone who thinks it will improve when the economy improves is a fool. Look at the Euro Zone for that answer. Then pray those who have discovered free porn
want to return to buying.
