They tend to grab a 7 min segment from a full scene. i.e. simply grabbing min 5-12 of a 16 min scene.
This is a scene from their back catalogue.
They do not include an ending (cum shot/orgasm etc)
Their watermarks do not stand out
Their titles are terrible
Minimal keywords/tags
They try to cram too much in the 200x80 icon and their site description is awful.

All this ends in minimal views, minimal click throughs and zero sales. A real disaster zone. These content owners then tell everyone that the tubes don't convert and they are to blame for their demise.
That is all well and good, and thanks for sharing other insights so generously as well, but Robbie doesn't really need to worry about any of that or split testing or anything because he apparently has a penis that works as a divining rod.

We are going to hire him to consult even though it does feel a bit weird that we have to stand behind him and look over his shoulder to see which way his erection is pointing.

Good thing I am comfortable with my sexuality because at first glance, well, um... yeah.

Boy, those Penguins sure are fucking up in the play-offs aren't they?
