Quite simply, EPCs aren't great when averaged across all unique clicks with cams. Why send high quality unique traffic to cams and earn say .02 per click when you can send to dating and earn .30 per click? Cams are much much harder to convert than anything else. I've owned cam sites. I've bought shit loads of traffic to cam sites. I am intimately familiar with the economics of cam sites. I don't send my bought traffic to cam sites. No big player does in media buys that I am aware of.

Of course someone occasionally spends a ton of money. How much money was spent trying to get that guy?

People excited about promoting cams are like having jack off friends that love going to Vegas to play black jack. All you hear about are the wins. No one talks about the losses. No one talks about how big the losses are over time.
