You are correct, I am struggling with these and the whole concept of paying somebody 50 % of my gross ( especially after my processor takes another 10). Indeed I have no clue how all these tubes,dating,chaturbate and cam sites make any real money (.... to me real money is more then $ 15,000 per month).
My OP said "lets say".... So, I was just thinking about the upside as compared to a site I am now running for 11 years. Used to be DVD & Download of SINGLE MOVIES for a fee ( about 30 dollars), now streaming single movies (at about the same prices) and yes, I have some customers for all this time, so we still ship about 100 DVDs a month.
Some of my "young cowboys" are pushing me to go "membership" but all of you guys just convinced me that is NOT a way to go for us.
And BTW: we do have an affiliate program and pay about 3 dollars per stream ( about 10 %), have about 200 affiliates with the top ten performing in $ 100's per month ( and down from there).
Thanks again to all who answered. It was a good lesson for me. My next question in another thread will be about traffic, even more perplexing to me....
