First off we for sure don't get charged 12.5%.. Our numbers are a tad to high to get our asses raped like that.
Cross sales = no processing fee for us.
E-mails... God this is simple
Let's see... Instant e-mail sales to epoch members, production rate is very high. BTW, e-mail current members to 'other' sites does nothing to retention, just like the price as long as it's not stupid high or really low.
As well with us, not sure about others when you start clicking you start getting that niche again to other sites, ect. It's a smart system, most paysite owners have this.
CC holding e-mails are worth about $19.30 each on average while double opt in on our paysites pull in around $13.60 each.
If your not doing those numbers you can hire me for $10k for 3 hours to teach you what to do.
The numbers I gave for exit traffic is a low %. 65% will see the exit and more like 1:1500 that view the exit will signup, I did the math at 1:1800.
Rebills on trials on average are 1.7 months which means even with your math the paysite owner still makes more than $10.
With all the other factors, like 2 3 or 4 more popup windows.
Paysite owners often have nice homes, drive nice cars, invest money, own many different business, travel often, etc... I guess we do this by only making $10 on a signup.
I guess we are hurting for cash... I mean really. The 18,000 sq foot office we have, 2 hot tubs, 2 saunas, 1 steam room, 5 racket ball courts, we cook breakfast and lunch for employees, 2 big screens, couches, pool table and a bar and 20 employees are all paid on that extra $10 we earn.
It's a number game. First off no paysite get's 50 signups and all 50 belong to webmasters
That is with no shave, just the way shit is.
