So far the only sites I have seen with longer form videos seem to be very dependant on third party ads, dating sites, and other non-porn revenue to make things work out. I don't deny this as being a functional business model, provided all the content is used with permission or the rights have been purchased. At this point there are only a very few programs putting content out in clips bigger than about 30 seconds.
So yeah, this is a great thread - we are all here to make money. I am hoping that Warchild or someone can provide a little guidance and understanding as to what is working, because I am sure many, many people are curious.

This goes back to a post I made awhile back about whether porn might become sort of a loss leader...it becomes what gets them to the site rather than what they buy when they get there.
I agree, we could all use a little guidance on these things and of course our own research and testing. Because if someone really had found "new" ways of getting traffic/making sales, I wouldn't expect them to just give those ideas away for free.
I also think, and has been expressed in other threads, that a lot of sponsors might just start opening their own tube sites and the tube sites almost become a sort of mass preview tour.
