Question to the big Tube Site Owners...Please Answer - GoFuckYourself.com

Semi-Retired-Dave · 11-24-2009, 11:40 AM

If your traffic is so Fucking Great, why do you need to sell Ad Space?
Why not just be your own affiliate and make more than you would be selling the space?

I'm sure this has been asked over an over, but I don't remember reading it any where.

Pleasurepays · 11-24-2009, 11:43 AM

im not a tube owner, but money upfront is better than money down the road...

RayBonga · 11-24-2009, 11:52 AM

I have mid-sized tube and I never sell ad spce (I get e-mails asking for it every week). tubes aren't any different from any other site / asset, some will make money others will not. My tube was profitable from the second month as has been ver since.

My view on what some of the larger ones were trying to do was just control a large chunk of adult traffic so that they could then cut deals or sell out. It's a different strategy and it may work in some cases. You just need deep pockets and some apetite for risk to keep it up.

Sly · 11-24-2009, 11:54 AM

The same could be said for TGPs, link lists, exits, members area ads, etc. etc. etc.

We'll see how long that will last.

Robocrop · 11-24-2009, 12:44 PM

If the buyers are useless, why do they need traffic?

PowerCum · 11-24-2009, 01:05 PM

Why give you my trade secrets for free?

As a tube site owner I know why I sell the ad space. The funny thing is that you don't even understand my reasons to sell it, besides money. So better leave you in ignorance.

The sad thing is that as a program owner you should already know exactly why tubes sell their ad space.

On a side note I don't see any properly operated tube site going down due to lack of sales

Loch · 11-24-2009, 01:06 PM

that is about the same as asking why do traffic brokers excist.....pointless

Why do affiliate programs even take in affiliates if they could just get the traffic them selves and have a lot less competition.

No, I'm selling the one in my sig because I'm busy working on another one.

No, the one for sale is just a project that never took off (because I'm busy with other stuff).

If you want to see the kind of conversions I'm getting on the main one check some stats I posted a while back: http://www.gfy.com/fucking-around-and-business-discussion/926918-money-porn-tube-traffic-doesnt-convert-etc.html

Better question for tube owners, can you retain traffic without stealing content? -- Question for FBI, what happened to 2257 records?
