But, you are too quick to consider "SCAM paying little", whatever is not adult programs. WIthout consider cams, which is adult indeed, let's detail one example I made: Gambling: it is legal in most countries (except USA), in fact often politicians are hidden shareholders of the companies who got state licenses in the various countries. Legal gambling market revenue is several billion dollar and increasing. In fact, when people are unemployed and poor, are more likely to gamble, than when busy with stable job. Talking with some major ad/traffic network rep's, I learn their main customers are, in fact, gambling - but this is geotargeted so perhaps USA guys here never see such ads. I hear of no one tube or high traffic site of any kind who failed because can't pay hosting, really. Do you? They can sell ads always, or sell to a Manwin-like company if tired to find buyers for ad spaces every month. And they sell ads not directly: the ad networks sells most of the space for them. I think ad networks is going to be a stable business "forever" (see google), of course as long as you're serving many ads so you have deal with many big (tube, pirate, whatever) sites. Yes some ad networks failed, but, not so many, compare it with other businesses.

I said fuck it and moved back to Houston after 6 years in LA. I see potential models all over the place that 5 years ago I could easily recruit with all the money from content buyers. Now I have nothing to offer them I would have to hustle to get a couple of shoots for them and the pay rate would be way less than back then. Its not worth it on both ends to shoot content like we use to. Pretty sad but life goes on. I am going to shooting mainstream primarily as porn is an uncertain future for me. I would like to shoot porn part time but I don't even see it being worth it from what companies want to pay now. I have seen larger companies saying that they want non exclusive more and more because they can no longer afford to shoot exclusive.
Most companies have gone in house and buy their own gear so they can train interns that will work for almost nothing. I had a major client that had me train a whole crew then pulled me out because they didn't need me after that. I was warned this would happen by other shooters but I couldnt really tell them no. They offered to cut my pay in half as an option to stay on board but that kind of pay doesn't allow a one man company to stay afloat. There are a few guys still around that have big contracts and are still shooting but nothing lasts forever.

It's pretty much already here for $0 if you know where to look and know what you are doing. Even the micro-niches. It's all at the forums, torrents and file lockers.

If the average person gets free porn anywhere, it is from Tubes. HD porn conveniently streamed onto TVs is the future. The average person won't have to put up with being assaulted by animated ad vomit and pops or being skimmed to another destination. Sitting on the sofa and watching a giant screen of porn versus sitting on the sofa watching porn on a mobile phone, pad or laptop. Its a no brainer.

Porn distribution will one day become more mainstream if it can overcome the current stigma and then it will be dominated by companies like NBC, FOX, and the like. Manwin and such companies will be merged in or become a fossil. But it will be some time and probably not on the TV as we know it.

I say once porn can be streamed over the TV, sponsors should line up to get their own channels and trim down their online operations to just photo gallereries.
If the content is going to be pirated, then let the pirates work harder at it - make them remove encryption from the streaming like Roku has before uploading it. Or if you are old school, run it through an RF converter and make a VHS copy.

Definitely agree with you on the low margin part. Have to divide one more time, if I'm not mistaken. There is the number for how many views it takes to get a click. But then you need to factor in how many clicks it takes to get a purchase. The more precise the math is, the better a company can do with low margins. This business used to be sufficiently high margin that the math was not necessary to do well.

LOL
this place was always full of idiots what i'm saying is - yes, there're still money to be made, but not because the industry is growing, but because i'm better than those who quit and if you want to make sales you'll have to 'take' those from me or other profiting webmaster i also won't be addressing most of the bs flooding this thread |

If tubes are the reason for the death of paysite model...
... then we must see the death of tubes too in the future???? More and more programs closing; less and less new fresh produced content. Less and less content to be added to the tubes. Customers getting bored. Decline traffic.. etc etc etc.
I wonder when this spoiled "everything for free" generation will start to complain that there is no more new fresh content. But... everything must go to shit first...

Dating Old sites selling paysites + pop unders + mobile redirects Don't get me wrong I think a paysite could still be the way to go too. Because a part of the industry is on a downward curve does not necessarily mean that you cannot make a million or two in it. ![]()

This thread is sad but true. Companies should go on craigslist now and find interns to shoot your porn and face the charges when they get caught shooting without permits and condoms. They will work for free and take all the heat for you for very little or no money. They will even go out and buy nice equipment with their savings so they can be around hot chics and call themselves porn producers. You have an new generation of mope shooters that have no clue about actual production but they will save you a few hundred dollars per shooting since you no longer have the budget for real shooters. You might want to get a studio though most of these shooters will be living in their moms basement.

![]() Do you offer content that they cannot get at the tubes? Not just your specific brand but a different type of niche or micro-niche which is unique? Will the surfers go to your site instead of the tube site? They've been conditioned for six years now to go to the tube sites. You'll have to overcome that. When the tubes start seeing you as a competitor and they no longer need or want your content I am guessing that the free traffic from the watermarks and whatever links they provide ceases. Already most tubes will not allow watermarks unless you are in the CPP.

My microniche bondage type of content is not widely spread on tubes like the bondage-sex content from the bigger companies. That's something different then the damsel in distress bound and gagged fetish, where the bondage and the gags itself is the fetish. If people have bondagetraffic that doesn't convert maybe they should be aware of this nuance in bondagetraffic. What is annoying to me is that lot of my competitors have their complete contentdatabase spread on sites like myvideo and dailymotion. I wrote some an email to let them know and what to do to have the content removed. They really don't fucking care, these fucking idiots. It is saturating my niche in a way... on the other hand... i always have my videos removed there so if people really want my shit they know where to buy it... It's also amusing to check boards where people sometimes beg for someone to post my content or a working password to my site or how some fucker didn't manage to crack my site ![]() ![]() Maybe that's why MY affiliates still have decent ratios! The only shitty part is is that it's a relatively small niche ![]() Regarding to mainstream porn i can imagine why people won't pay for porn anymore... it's all over the fucking tubes for free.....

That's the story of things for the affiliate too. One sponsor does it, two sponsors do it, three sponsors do it, and soon there are few customers out there willing to pay ever again in the niche. And here we are. It's a damn shame.

I think there are 2 big reasons why affiliates don't get good ratios with kink anymore: Indeed... it's all over the place for free Second: They are so huge and wide-known that everyone knows them. Visitors really don't need an affiliate anymore to direct them to kink.com Interesting... sponsers that don't put their content on tubes will have a better chance getting affiliates in the future... Businesses could make decissions based on that reality. They do need to keep their shit from the free sites... also a challence.

I've been actively buying sites in 2013
Saw many offers. Most (like 80%) of sites for sale primary make money with brokers or other services (like 50%+ of income) and very few with paysites. the ones denying thread title are either stupid fucks or surfers. just that |
