Let's see...

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

Yeah, I think I have to go get my toast out of the toaster so I can butter my bread after I scrape off the slightly burned edges with a dull knife. Then I am going to wipe up the crumbs and throw them in the compost bin. Kind of a metaphor for your career trajectory when I think about it, isn't it?

What were you talking about again?
Nice dodge of my assumptions.

I don't know if you meant what you said. All I know is you said it.

ilnjscb Let this be known as the day that resistance to the tubes officially fell. We are in Day One of the New Era.
Tubes will continue to grow and spring up, there's nothing to stop them. some will be major and some minor. The move towards selling Cams, Dating, Pills, Gambling and what ever else they can find to sell will continue. Supported by recorded porn. some sites will survive. I suspect the big guys will move away more from an affiliates reliant model to an Owned Tube or Partner with Major Tube models, so affiliates will lose income.

Not a prediction, not even breaking news. It's going on.

xhamster - 1% banner ctr is about spot on. No real volume though at this early stage, 25k on one vid after 3 days, 11k on another.

porntube - low volume, only 1 vid up for 24 hours (wrong fucking vid uploaded too lol)
Ultimately it's the content of the video on a Tube that will decide the traffic to your site ratio. Because we've all opened a video and thought "rubbish" and gone back to look at more. That counts as a click. Until the average length of the view is listed no one knows if the viewer looked at the video for 10 seconds or 10 minutes.

Votes, comments and clicks to a site are an indication.

If enough people submit, a trend will reveal itself.
