Cams count towards about 1/30th of my monthly profits, and the only cam sales I've made have been from buying affiliate accounts/websites from people trying to get out of the business. I've opened (and closed) a webcam studio in the past few months, which was my reason for posting here. Didn't go as well as expected but have managed to buy other people's networks that are now turning a profit after paying back all of what I bought them for already.
Here are current stats of my two main sources of income:
These stats are from sites ran on WORDPRESS (cms) with 8,000$-10,000$ (ongoing) worth of customizations.
One more site, older system and updated manually (not by me, pay someone to do it), have considered changing it to a CMS but since it's just one site and gets along fine, haven't done so.
Care to share yours for comparison to see who the 'clueless newb who doesn't know anything about paysites' is?
Cams - have spent about 5,000$ on a few websites that make 1,500$-2,000$/month, that's about it
Your question "Does a CMS help with rebills" is so ridiculously stupid I just couldn't resist. A CMS has nothing to do with rebills. A CMS *could* help with rebills if your websites were struggling because you were trying to update them all manually, missing deadlines, having bad sorting options, and not benefiting from any additional seo with all of your members content locked behind a 1990's 'members area' instead of being displayed automatically on front-end/back-end from CMS or only having a front-end member's area with all of your updates.
A CMS helps automate and organize your website, that's it, if your clusterfuck of a network all built on manual pages is struggling and losing member retention because of it, A CMS might help slightly, indirectly, due to fixing other issues on your website. If you are manually chugging away hitting all your update deadlines, and doing everything else a CMS already does manually, then I can't see why there would be any difference.
Your question is like asking: Does a fast server help with rebills? I'm trying to think of another example that's as mundane as your question but can't think of anything else.
You are a fucking embarrassment. I wouldn't risk trying to move your sites into a CMS now, even though a CMS is a basic necessity of any kind of paysite network I think it's too much for you to handle.
