Traffic are people and you have to please them to attract them.

We now know this and still, people insist they have the traffic as if they own it. They don't, they can only keep working hard to maintaining the attractions they have for these people. Loyalty is earned not given.

Tubes that works hardest at attracting surfers maintains the most people returning to their sites. Today they attract 99% of porn consumers. Because the consumers love them. The major Tubes dominate that sector. These are people who consume porn regularly, they're clicking on ads, they can be sold to because they buy from those ads. If they didn't buy a major part of the industry would die and a former major part would have a rebirth.

As an avid lifelong porn consumer, it's easy to tell why some sites fail to convert porn consumers from ads on Tubes. The sites are second rate to the Tubes. And in essence selling the same product. A jerk off. Even if it's a live model.

Recorded porn are obviously second rate to Tubes. Especially when the best paysites give their clips to Tubes.

Traffic is easy to get and at $5 a 1,000 affordable if your product is better than what Tubes offer. Forget about those using Ad Blockers or not clicking. They're yesterday's customers. Even if you force them to land on your site, unless it has better content than where they left. They Ain't buying nothing.

Concentrate on the curious seekers of a new level of porn, that's why most clicked. Concentrate on the content, the tour immediately grabbing their attention and converting them. Not waiting for someone to see something they like, as was the previous model. A well-aimed stone will have more effect than a handful of sand. That's what marketing is about.

The surfers have just left a site with 10,000 of porn clips of all nature, a mass of free jerk off scenes. Don't present them with 10s of paid for jerk off scenes of the same level. Or you'll find they will go back to where they came from sadder but wiser. Wiser that clicking on a link is a waste of time. Compare CTR in 2000 to today.

Lastly, this is 101 marketing. I don't need to be a webmaster, affiliate, paysite, webcam or Tube site advertiser to know it. The same rules apply to marketing and selling any product.
