Traffic is good but no sales yet on my tube site...

You seem to contradict yourself there. The only word anyone needs to read is IF.

If you had brains you wouldn't make stupid posts.

Yes every free site is sticky, with people realising paying for porn is a mugs game. So let's give them more free porn. :upsidedow

Yes my porn is outdated. It's the type of porn that used to earn money in section of the porn industry not stupid enough to give it away for free.

The problem with his thinking is. converting 1-100 on 1,000,000 surfers is way better than converting 1-5,000 on 1,000,000 surfers.

Giving away free porn is easy and eventually everyone was doing it and the 200,000,000 surfers coming to get there daily dose of free unlimited porn were converting at 1-5,000 instead of 1-100.

The belief that the more free porn you gave away the more your earned has led to an industry that now sells clicks at the prices we see in this thread. People consuming free porn make awful porn customers.

Hey free porn supporters... I got the next big chance for you.... I call it "selling tons of sands in the desert"....what do you think? Great idea, hm? :helpme

WTF happend to this industry....

IF only this wasn't the reality.

1-74,543 surfers who like to view porn so much they click on links earns 3 sales. :1orglaugh

BigPinPin I'm selling snowballs in the Artic. Expecting a big rush.

The sad thing is if you read this thread people are continually making excuses, explaining why this is good. Without realising the harm this does. Just another step to the eventual decline to a tiny industry where only scraps will be left.

If I would have posted anything like that 3-4 years ago....people would make the same stupid jokes as they do now about free porn and piracy and telling that those numbers are impossible.....your site sucks, they rip you off for sure or whatever.

Well....do they rip your ass off??? NO, that's the general fucked up industry right now in 2012!!! Great, isn*t it?

A lot of the posters on GFY are brown nosing the bros. Pimproll is a bro so he can do no wrong. I'm not and can do no right.

Back in the day when we didn't give it all away I had a great idea of a site with rotating TGP galleries. Those who put it on their unused domains did well, we used it ourselves when galleries were good enough. When I brought the idea to the boards it was rubbished because I'm no bro.

A lot of trolls lost out because they couldn't think outside their small boxes.

And ultimately that's the problem with online porn. Few would make it any other business. Even some of the big guys are incredibly narrow minded when it comes to real business and marketing. For instance a site full of content that not every clown can shoot will always outsell a site with content any clown can shoot.

So why not do it?

Content is a long term investment and traffic isn't. Because to launch a site with great content will cost money up front. Shooters who can produce go to where the pay is best, not the worse. Sometimes it's impossible to bang out lots of great content in a day. Often it takes more than a girl on a sofa to set the scene. All this has to be done before a penny is taken in.

Traffic on the other hand needs a few pages on a tour and affiliates area. Content comes from what the site has, few shoot specific content for selling even though the aim of each one is different. Then programs have to be bought or wrote. Writing is a cost but nowhere near the cost of the content. Then marketing to affiliates.

Even with great content setting up the affiliate side has to be done.

So we all know a site with great content will convert and retain better. The only problem for affiliates is they're often saturated with people promoting them. Not a problem for the site owners.

You would think with all the mega rich site owners more would of had the intelligence to realise this. Still if you don't have the inhouse shooter who can create the content, it's expensive.

Solo girl $1,000 and up
Lesbian $2,000 and up
BG $4,000 and up

In fact up a lot. Still you have the chance of selling this content offline and this could in the long term pay for production.

Yet think what it would cost to launch a site of 100 solo girl scenes for $1,000 a scene. Not because a custom shooter can shoot it cheaper. Because a custom shooter can't sell his work for more. That's a huge upfront investment.

Then there's the sites who couldn't even afford to get someone to shoot for them and decided to do it themselves.

So the sites made traffic king because that was all they could afford. Affiliates were over paid and they have nothing but traffic to send, so traffic became their king. Both new once the surfer landed on the samples, it was those samples that impressed him enough to click on a link, same on the tour and same on staying a member.

Yet they would tell you it was the design, words in a banner, text, anything but what gets a dick hard. Because they couldn't go that route.

Those who want to tell me this isn't so for the vast majority can also explain why online content is mostly crap, doesn't sell offline very well and why the big bros didn't up their content game. Logically please.

Why do so many of the PR rep replies often come off as assholish?
