Hey yo, teomaxxx.. in 2000 we had the number one site in the world with AL4A. We were getting around 600,000 uniques a day according to sextracker. (which in case you don't know about sextracker stats...well I'll just leave that be) The Hun was #2 at around 575,000
Today The Hun gets MILLIONS of uniques. AL4A which now belongs to Pierre gets about a million....about the same as when it was sold to him.
The Hun made TONS of money with 575,000 uniques. We got rich off of 600,000 uniques.
Do I think they are in trouble with MILLIONS of uniques now?
Not really.
Do I think those sites are in a "decline" Maybe. But you won't see either one be anything but VERY profitable for as long as they choose to be.
But you don't have to believe what I'm telling you. Just think what you will. I was there. I am still here. And I know what I'm talking about...not just making guesses based on traffic numbers that may or may not be correct and/or alexa rankings that don't mean a lot.
What do I mean by that? Well, I always see people comparing how "small" The Hun is to a torrent site according to Alexa.
Well, Alexa is right. But the p. bay isn't JUST porn. Matter of fact, porn is a small part of it's traffic. Most freeloading losers go there to download Hollywood movies, music, software, etc.
So yeah. There are more people in this world who are interested in EVERYTHING rather than just porn.
Plus, it you look at an Alexa ranking from 5 years ago and see all or our sites PLUMMETTING down...again that is a mirage.
5 years ago there weren't as many sites as there are now. Nor as many surfers.
If you had a million uniques 5 years ago your ranking would have been pretty high. But NOW you still have those same million your ranking is MUCH lower.
It's not the amount of surfers you still have...but the amount of sites that have MORE.
And of course MYSPACE for instance didn't exist back then. So it bumped you down. YOUTUBE wasn't there so it bumped you down. The torrent sites with movies, software, porn, music....didn't exist so they bump you down.
But it doesn't mean that you are losing your market in the porn biz.
