Hosting = 50 cents. It's the average burn on each sign up.
Processing = 75 cents. Will be getting this down.

Content I own, program I own, design is used over and over again, set up will take a few hours. When the new CMS is up and running.

Profit is $3.75, which is what some people make from a paysite charging $30 and supporting affiliates.

Surfers join one and then come back and join another in a few weeks or they join the full site or they join one of the the sites I upsell from inside the site.

The plan is in the next few weeks to get the main paysite running on the new CMS. Then we will be launching one $5 site a day. We will be going with a few $2 sites and a few $10 sites.

We will build it to 100 sites, which was the original plan, that will be all fairly unique and have different content. With 800 videos this should not be a problem. Then we will start to mix the content a bit differently to widen the appeal. Say guys looking for "Big tit lesbian teens" site, rather than "Big tit" or "lesbian Teens".

Traffic was never a problem, the problem was getting enough sites up and running and the old CMS was built for a content store and could not do it. The new one will.

It's part of my future plans to offer the surfers more price options.

And why not? Paul Markham Teens is doing well and the free teen porn surfer will sign up if you hit him with the price he will pay.

As for the $5 sites well I have to be honest and say I still have not got them up. After 3 months of trying to make a CMS work I've given up and will be buying another one. Then we will try again to get the $5 porn sites up and running.

I just thank you guys for bumping this thread again.

We stuck up www.5dollarsporn.com/petra a few weeks ago and at first it was very slow. Then we put up the others. http://www.5dollarsporn.com/christine/ http://www.5dollarsporn.com/kay/ http://www.5dollarsporn.com/grace/ and sign ups took off.

OK the traffic is very low as we have not really started to promote but ratios are outstanding. Will be interesting to see how they proceed when we start sending more traffic.

No affiliate program for this site, sorry guys.

Maybe they'll have more success if don't use a trashy name like 5dollarporn..

BTW cheap / pay per download sites would work you guys are just doing it extremely wrong.

No we never launched one. I could see after launching the 5 sites that affiliates wouldn't send traffic to $5 sites. Maybe today they will. But back then it's obvious from the posts they didn't like the idea. Doubt if they will like it any more today.

Which brings up another discussion point. Did the industry form itself to satisfy customers needs or affiliates needs?

Certainly many thought throwing endless amounts of traffic at cheap content was the route to success. It worked up until Tubes changed the game.

Thanks for bumping the thread.

Yes not the best name.

The idea was to build a network of 100+ sites. The customers would buy another site when they felt the need to. $5 a time to download 10 videos. Sure customers, it would build trust with each sale, would love it and the BW is certainly affordable. Today even more so.

I'm sure the concept would work. Maybe it's time for someone else to try it again.

You tried it. You failed. Publicly. Now you want someone else to make the same mistakes you did?

Your model was based on cheap non recurring sales. You wanted to charge $5 for 10 days non recurring. So an affiliate who did a good enough job to get a customer to pull their credit card out and use it, and the credit card actually worked, would only make $2.50 (at 50% revshare) per a signup. People can make more than that from just verified email addresses which is 1000x more easy to sell. So "today" affiliates wont send to this model. I can't see affiliates ever sending to this type of model with this pay structure. It is the "non recurring" that is killing you and your affiliates.

I don't think it's a mistake, or that because he failed that it'll never work, how much longer do you think you're going to get away with charging $30 a month for a porn site membership? Do you know how much $30 a month is? That's the price of cable TV or a broadband connection FFS. It's just not worth it, to be honest I'm surprised there's still people paying for it, but then again with all the free porn floating around, they won't be for much longer.

fuck off fake nick. You never make business related threads or never offer any help or advice for people. You are a worthless piece of negative shit with nothing better to do with your life. If by some chance you are successful and make money I feel sorry for you because obviously this is the best form of entertainment you can find. Which is sad, if you were successful you should get out and enjoy life some and not spend 24/7 on here. But chances are you are a loser piece of shit with no money so the only entertainment you can afford to amuse yourself it to be a douche ass troll on here. If you think I am remotely the same as you it just shows how fucking delusional you are.

You know everyone by name, you know what everyone does and you know about that shit that has happened years ago. it is obvious you been trolling here for a long time under different nicks and had to buy this one because you couldn't make a new account.

What do you do, what have you done besides post negative shit on GFY and troll people? Are you DJ? your posts smell like his. Keep posting, your life is really fucking sad, I feel sorry for you. But I will start ignoring your ass going forward.

$30 a month is three Naughty America PPV videos through my cable company, whereas that same $30 will get me access to every Naughty America video through their website.

Of course, it doesn't help things that NA has a big "Sign Up For $7.95" link at the top of their tour, yet no $7.95 option on their join page.
