They don't generate traffic, they redirect it. A generator creates something. As for marketing, there's very little of that done other than spin.

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.

What media are you buying? Porn films, stories, etc?
The business has changed a lot. Back in 1998 there were lots of media buyers who were creating sites and redirecting the offline porn buyers into online porn buyers then redirecting these people to their sites. Amongst them were a few real marketing people who looked at creating a product with attributes that could be marketed.
Now as you say people buy traffic from a free porn media site to sell something else and occasionally the media they had just jerked off to.
As for big money, that depends on one's perspective of what big money is.
