Most affiliates and webmasters have used the same method to resolve the same problem and when it didn't work, they used the same method again.

Not enough sales? You need more traffic.

When the real problem was few will buy the shit you're offering, so throwing more traffic at it just means more won't buy. Adding stupidity to dumb they decided the best way to get more traffic was to give surfers more free content and find ways to load more free content online than before with tools, free samples, hosting, support, galleries, etc.

They often dismissed high numbers of surfers rejecting what they offered by claiming those people never bought porn. While other sites were converting the same traffic. All the while they could see the programs that were selling and yet didn't see why or maybe they did and refused to copy them.

I've lost count of the number of people who asked me if I could shoot exclusive custom content for stupidly low prices. $300 for a solo girl set and video, $800 for a lesbian scene and $12 for a boy girl scene. The reason they gave for offering such a low price was someone else would do it for that price, when I asked so why are you asking me they told me because his stuff is bad. But they weren't going to pay more.

Now you have people claiming Traffic today - good, converting traffic - is not endless. It only comes from a few major sources these days so it's VERY competitive to obtain that traffic. Content? Sure - but it's everywhere. Content is not hard to get. His solution is to go shoot more scenes himself as if he can do as good a job as a professional. Can he afford a professional? Probably not and that's what separates the great sites from the mediocre.
