Ratios down the shitter? - GoFuckYourself.com

Lace · 07-01-2009, 06:12 PM

I don't know what the hell has happened in the last few months, specifically last month but my ratios has skyrocketed. The majority of my traffic is straight from the google machine too. I went from <1:500 to roughly 1:2,000+ and I was down more then 50% last month.

I've been away from the boards and chit-chat lately, so how has everyone else been doing?

google results feature free porn on top of your results and under, yeah ratios down

I recommend that you try out mobile sites. I know ours are doing extremely well. Never hurts to try something different to add to your income streams.

Guess those torrents and tubes are really killing it, eh?

What's that saying? If you can't beat 'em, join 'em?

I've done mobile before and got out of it. Not my thing anymore.

Homegrown is 1:197 today for all tours/sites/traffic sources. Ratios have slipped a little from our 2008 average of 1:61 but still not horrific.

ok

niche25 · 07-01-2009, 07:17 PM

The ol' summer slow down is okay but with this economy I am wondering if anyone gets hurt bad.

paying for porn is like paying for dial up.. unfortunately

mynameisjim · 07-01-2009, 07:40 PM

There has been some slowdowns in certain areas.

I just ran a report for the month of June and our affiliates did 1:444 for the entire month. That number includes all affiliates (even the few with no sales) and is based on uniques to the first page of the tour, NOT THE JOIN PAGE.

If you have amateur or general hardcore traffic, give our site a try. See sig for details or hit me up.

globofun · 07-01-2009, 08:51 PM

I guess we are on the same boat!

I just wish I could go back in time and enjoy this business a little better!

TheSenator · 07-01-2009, 09:29 PM

I re-doing the way I promote on my blog. First thing was to update my WordPress theme to the latest in CSS design that is super clean. Second was to SEO using the best tools available and having fresh content. Third...use Twitter.

The third one is still in the works.

mikesinner · 07-01-2009, 09:36 PM

I'm still getting almost 1:600 ratios. I guess you all just suck.

I suck but still make about the same money...... but if my ratios would be the same as in 2008..... I would not be so sucking!

stevo · 07-01-2009, 11:41 PM

March: 1:941
April: 1:1151
May: 1:2311
June: 1:11876 shittttttt

96ukssob · 07-01-2009, 11:43 PM

Same for me, I was shocked how bad it is now.

Its a mix of poor economy, summer slow down, tube sites, hot pants and dating sites all killing conversions at once.

d-null · 07-01-2009, 11:48 PM

worse yet is the old standbys like cams are getting so fricking oversaturated every website on the net is popping ads for them, and even more so the tubes, any surfer out there that knows how to use google has already seen the ads 1000 times before they even make it past any of the big tubesites

Davy · 07-02-2009, 03:40 AM

My ratios have stayed the same. The traffic has dropped, though.

CarlosTheGaucho · 07-02-2009, 04:31 AM

June was a little worse than April / May

CC market changed completely during the past year, you get more failed rebills and more failed new sign ups then ever, this affects everyone who makes their money getting someone to sign up with their CC

Add Google pointing to a free site full of free pirated porn on any major porn term

Not this bad but the same trend. this year was sucking and then june was like oh my fucking god what happened?

seeandsee · 07-02-2009, 06:07 AM

ratios are dead

the real magoo · 07-02-2009, 06:11 AM

Have not really been "in the biz" since early 2008 but I have heard a lot about how bad things are so I decided to give it a try again. Been pushing maybe 60-70.000 clicks to various sponsors and oh my god..almost no signups at all..

One sponsor is at a 0:10.000 ratio
The rest is like 1:5000

Only thing doing ok is the dating sites and some of the cams.
And this is traffic from galleries.

Never seen numbers like this and I started out in 1999-2000

I´m glad I got out when I did but I feel bad for the rest of the affiliates struggling

CarlosTheGaucho · 07-02-2009, 06:18 AM

Here are some very recent numbers:

Unique clicks

104,622

Sales:

218

Unique ratio:

1:479.9

all through CCBILL

Wow that's like in the good ol'days !

I don't know how long this will go on but i've started to make sales from 2 very old sites that i converted into blogs, automatically updated using fhg's with their descriptions (modified a bit by a script) I'm now on top position for various niche keywords.
I'm selling 3 months memberships along with 30 day recurrings ! The only way to make a buck or 2 these days is to score at GG damn it. I was getting signup emails and i didn't know for what and from where it came from

Anyways, while it lasts

a lost of 66%+/- is not bad?

livejamin was my lifesaver.. pushing 1:500 avg for a couple years.. in the last month only it jumped to 1:5000, I just spent forever trying to figure out what just happened for these bullshit numbers.

every tube, forum and 4chan started pushing them, oversaturation

gandalfuy · 07-02-2009, 05:16 PM

Ratios are about traffic... and segmented traffic.
