but let´s calculate 1000 members a 20 dollar per month

this is 20.000 us

so now assume that after affiliate share and payment costs there are 8000 left.
from wich you have to pay servers, promo materials and a lot more - if you have a cheap
solution that will cost you another 1000. wich leaves you with 7000.
now assume that you have to update at least 3 videos per day to make it worth for a user and you buy for the price that paul tells you - if it is semi-exclusive you would pay around 50 us per scene. 50x80= 4000 - wich leaves you with 3000 profit.

this is not called biz.



why is that so important for you to know?
I am not here to compare dick length. But the people who know me know that I am doing well.



I am since 1997 in adult internet and since 1999 I also feed the families from my employees (most of them came because they could not do it alone)



I was running a big german membersite from 2000 til 2012.
the memberbase in the best times was around 13-16 k wich means that you need around 3000 to 4000 NEW PAYING members every month when you want to hold this number.
this makes it incredibly expensive because the costs of the infrastructure is a lot higher
and becomes fix costs. if you ever go down from this number of members you must shrink very fast or the costs will eat you.

in my market (wich is mainly the german speaking market) there have been a few VERY big affiliate system that was running hundreds of paysites each.
ALL of them are still HUGE companies with 9-digit yearly revenues - but not one of them is still doing the classic members areas - and they also know why.

there was sexmoney, there was partnercash there was cash4members and many many more - where are they?
ALL of them are still active but they do something else and do it with MUCH MORE success.
