thatīs an error - the good ones where in mainstream and come over to adult more and more.

but these are affiliates and not webmasters. they do not generate traffic - they buy it and have the professional hands to make something out of it.

thatīs where the big money is made today and not from webmasters who try to be trafficgenerators and marketers at the same time.

i work a lot with media buyers and media buying companies and had a nice conversation this day with one of them. they start to become active with adult but make "ONLY" 1 million per month with that by now (what is 20% of their complete revenue) but their knowledge can be adapted to adult and thatīs why i understand that an affiliate if today is not a traffic generating webmaster.

i was in november in BKK on the AWasia and there where 3000 attendees but i saw maybe 2 or 3 what are running own websistes.

the goal of today is to understand that traffic-generator and affilialtes are 2 complete different things (but one need the other).

i still do not understand why "traffic-webmasters" still try to monetize their traffic with the time, options and knowledge they have. that is a game what canīt be won.
