WIth new peer/social sharing sites like pornotube, xtube, etc...it seems that paysites have an opportunity to get 'free' traffic, by giving away 'free' content, by submitting to these kinds of places.
Sponsors have the advantage of (usually) having the 2257 documentation.. so if these sharing sites ask for it (which they should), sponsors can deliver.. and potentially get traffic for giving away content that they have the ability to do so (ie. referring to the fact that many have exlcusive content or shoot their own content, that they don't have a licensing issue).
I am referring to these xxxxxxxtube kind of sites as being surfer traffic aggregators.. where through word of mouth, etc.. surfers will find the websites and be able to view the content.
So with some watermarking and/or backlinks from the aggregator website, these kinds of sites could prove to be more 'free' traffic in addition to search engines.
Youtube has been doing alot of cleanup in regards to copyright infringements, but probably 2257 cleanup is due..
There is no question the abundance of 'free porn' out there, that makes it harder for affiliates to get a sale.. with conversion numbers getting higher (ie. 1:1000+)... surfers are wanting more before they buy.
The more successful affiliates are buying their traffic and playing the money game of numbers.
Since the cost of being an affiliate webmaster is relatively low, i don't predict any lowering of affiliates, if anything, i see it potentially growing more so, but it means more with have to look at this as a marketing hobby and lower the expectations of quitting the day job, to sit back and make money on the net.
Fight the placing of tiny ads at the back of the internet!
