ohhh nahhhh :/

You helped me a lot of in past. I wish you all the best and stay healthy.

You are a great guy

My opinion differ. They're more easy on spending online versus our elders.

Why the hell did they cover the signup button with outgoing links?

So I plan on trying my luck with promoting cams soon, is Chaturbate still decent to promote (revshare) or is there another company I should be looking at?

How are the free signups for everyone today?

Sucking balls.

yes it's exceptionally low today, we'll see how it ends later

May, Sep and Oct being a nightmare to me

well, after reading this thread and seeing tayax's post I decided to develop some software to analyze the stats data provided; I'm not done yet, however from the info I've gotten so far, basically everything I had assumed was entirely wrong.

what really surprised me is that in the past ~2.5 years (all the stats data that I could download), customers who joined prior to that point 2.5 years ago, have generated nearly 50% more income than those who've joined since. Meaning that even over that 2.5 year span, my earnings were more about what I did prior to that, than they are about my current traffic.

Also, check out the vast difference between the median and the mean earnings per capita (these are different methods of calculating an "average"):
Median: $28.6
Mean: $305.03

now, at 98%, having removed the top 2% of spenders:
Median: $26.3
Mean: $172.39

and again at 95%:
Median: $25
Mean: $120.93

^^this demonstrates the difference whales can have on your overall income
When the average can change from $305 to $120 merely by removing the upper 5% of spenders, that is telling me that 1/20 of the customers are determining nearly 2/3 of my income from this sponsor.

I also averaged some Running Totals of earnings per customer, m+0 indicating earnings in the first month, m+1 earnings of the second month, etc., until it reaches "max" which is simply all earnings generated after m+6. We see the running total after 7 months is only $87.30, and that number is nearly doubled in the period after that. Keep in mind these customers may continue to buy in the future.

m+0: 29.72
m+1: 42.01
m+2: 51.54
m+3: 59.81
m+4: 69.43
m+5: 79.16
m+6: 87.3
max: 160.34

So, in conclusion, whales seem to have a much much much bigger effect on income than I expected; they don't merely provide a "bonus" as I assumed, rather they appear to be responsible for the majority of earnings. Meaning, one cannot expect any kind of income stability until there is a sufficient quantity of whales to even out the earnings - which in turn means that the level of income this threshold of stability corresponds with is likely quite high, unless you get lulled into a false sense of security by having one or two steady whales.

Also, earnings are spread out much more than I anticipated; that last data above shows only $29.72 earned in the first month after an initial purchase, of a total of $160.34 (and climbing).

Maybe that will help clear up some of the concern around income fluctuations.

Interesting stats. How many spenders do you base your stats one?

I can't give everything away :winkwink:
The user base should be sufficient to give meaningful data, I'll leave it at that.

Thank you for sharing, very interesting! :thumbsup

my free signups are rock bottom for a while now on both cb and my whitelabel using same traffic.

Yes I think the same. Some unscrupulous advertising networks do this too: I came across an ad network that was stuffing its own cb cookie. I noticed that and asked their support why so many "ads" showed up in the ad slots I had set up with them and they replied that when there was no inventory, they were showing default ads (which "coincidently" were cb cookie stuffing...). Oh and the ad slots were 300x250.

Imagine the reach they get not to mention that they potentially override your own cookies on your own site.

Nothing good happening relative to last year or recent periods. I'm quite surprised the October is down.

Did anyone notice any changes after Oct 3 when Steve announced his last day?

Everything is down at the moment, hits, sign ups, revenue...

I've noticed a huge nosedive in the past week and a half!! Spending and new users are way down, traffic is up. All the support ticket replies that I'm receiving are from someone who obviously is not versed in affiliate marketing in the least!!

Oddly enough, yes, Revenue has been down since Oct. 3 and only once reached xxx$ per day since Oct 3rd.

Signups dropped about 50% as well, while revenue is being generated but it also dropped to about -80% of what i usually generated per day.

chaturbate shaves, i'm making more money with dating in a week than i ever made with cb in a month. Yes...dating.

I have a few dives on specific days this month (2 to be exact) - but yeah, was expecting more frankly. Still waiting to know who's going to replace steeve.

What dating program/s are you using? We have done ok with some of these. :thumbsup

Which networks do you work?

Becareful... Accusation of this kind did now fly well the last few weeks :1orglaugh ... Just saying :upsidedow


Curious about if your promoting dating Rev/share or PPL ?

and for cam is it Rev/share or PPL ?

I know this is a Chaturbate thread but just wanted to say my sales are way way down for other sites p/c and LJ it is the worst I have ever seen it. Hoping things pick up again soon. I was just glad to see it was not just me with the October Blues

Very interesting stats, thanks for sharing. Once again, the number of spenders those stats are based on will change everything. But I have about the same feeling. I'm racking up more spenders everymonth yet I'm getting less revenues. But I "only" have 250+ total spenders, making it to about 70/80 active spenders.

The none growing thing was mentioned before.
Interesting would be the opinions why?

it's based on more than that and less than 1000, that's all the more I'm willing to say.

2 bloody charge backs this period for me

Welp this period has been a big disappointment. As soon as Steve left it all fell apart.

That is irrational or must be magic.

First popup on mg since weeks, flash block on all browsers, to many re sign up beggars or just fluctuation.

Who knows?

Best regards

This period was much better than the last two so everything seems ok!

Well got another chargeback 2 from a 2012 account and 1 from a 2014 account

same here....

Yeah all this is true and much more. It has become very difficult to replace spenders, and the spenders seem to disappear quickly.

The Steve thing is just a weird coincidence, he has his last day Oct 2 and the following days are all 0.00 for us.

Happy Hunting!

We had one $0.00 last period Oct 4.

Greetings
