So enlighten us what are paysites that have "exploded" in the last 5 years ?
From what I can see they have not been overly expensive. The route to paysite success that I can see has been about pushing the boundaries of what you can get past your biller.
Implied incest, fake doctor/taxi/ etc, Step Mom, Bad Daddy etc. A rather unpleasant race to the bottom.
Morally questionable yes, amazing content no, expensive to produce no.

it depend what market you are focused in.
there is still space for paid websites but i assume that there are like 10 million paysites still around what are focusing the english speaking market.
and in the niche countries you will find nearly nothing.
i know that the majority of old fashioned webmaster swill doubt it but the time for people who want to make traffic AND sales have passed.
we are living in the era of media buyers what simply buy traffic and using professional methods to lead it into the right target.
simply the mass of traffic they are dealing with and the professional knowledge give them informations faster and in big numbers (what makes these informations reliable).
the problem with the paysites for me was that one part of the market was 100 times overloaded and other markets havenīt been seen.
what are missed right now are specialists in every part of the business process.
specialists in collecting traffic, specialsts in marketing traffic, specialists creating products for GEO-markets.
the world is MUCH bigger as just the english speaking market. but if you want to sell a membership to someone in india for 39 dollars per month you donīt go along with the mass who canīt afford that.
same with payments. you can not think that the whole world have 20 creditcards. there are still big western countries where a lot of people do not even have one card.
it is quite easy at the end. if you have 1 shoe shop in a crowdy street you will make money - if you have 100 shoe shops in this street no one will make money because there is still the same amount of buyers around what still have the same budget for shoes.
