Did it help with rebills? not really, all our videos were new larger and better, with many more download / streaming options and picture sets greatly improved. There were many other benefits for members too with model lists, tags, comments etc. Sales remained pretty much consistent between the old and new - we did expect better retention but it was not the case.

Thank you so much for this candid post. Rebills are the ONLY metric I care about, period. I will jump through 10,000 hoops if it means more money for my company. But this is what I hear from honest webmasters so thus my hesitation. But thank you again.

Haha "databse"! You're cute. :D Just kidding AJ. Thanks for posting this info. This thread is NOT - repeat
not - a slam against Elevated X (or any CMS or any company that uses a CMS). It was and is an honest inquiry into how to make more money and improve user experience.
Maybe it's because I started out in the 'Amateurs' niche but the porn websites I've been inside and checked out lately (about 20 of them, mostly larger sites) leave me cold and sterile. Slick and techy and...not sexy at all. They all feel like a bot made them or are computer-generated. LOL I know that sounds crazy but I never get the feeling there are any actual "people" behind there, just machinery.
Of course, this may also be why I remain a "small" guy and not a Baller. LOL
