I'm not sure how much worse off solo girl sites from the rest of the adult industry now but they were never anywhere as big as the best hardcore sites of their time - as successful as Lightspeed was during his run he was a small fraction of what big hardcore programs were doing.

You'd need a bunch of them these days to make good money. Model Centro is a great idea, there will always be porn girls and cam girls who want their own site more for vanity's sake than anything else - Model Centro doesn't shoot content, it's up to the girls to provide it, they just provide the CMS and the billing and take a cut. I had the same idea as others but Stan developed and executed it.

My formula for solo sites and it's basically the same as MikeAI's and Lightspeed's was is pretty dead. I have the most beautiful girl maybe to do porn, of course that's subjective, and her site does very mediocre sales - it was a shock to me when I launched it. I hoped to bring Destiny back and get her involved but honestly it wouldn't make enough of a difference to make it worth my trouble and hers.

I'd still do them on the basis Model Centro and PrismCash which my friend Doug owns runs them - photog and/or model provides the content and we split profits. Girls still can't do these sites on their own, not the young ones anyway, girls need to get into their late 20's at least to have their shit together enough to run their own sites, and I still think not many at that could do it successfully.

Girls for now are better off on MFC, Chaturbate and Streamate - they cam and sell content in one spot, no real need for a membership site. It seems to me that girls are making less on the cam sites, perhaps they're becoming saturated for the amount of interest from guys willing to spend some money. I look inside those MFC chatrooms and see sometimes thousands of guys lurking and jerking but hardly any of them tipping or taking the girl private. There are some pretty lean nights for even the fairly popular girls on cam sites.
