I left out another reason for lower conversions on tgps over the recent years. That is the practice of skimming traffic! What surfer likes to click on a link expecting to see a gallery and instead be taken to some traffic trade partners site, over and over again? Skimming is a good technology misused.
It is used in my view to inflate sites traffic numbers with the goal of allowing the site to sell their ad space for more money.

If a surfer is freeloading and clicking too many galleries without going to a paysite and buying something and if you Must use skimming then why not send them to the paysite of your sites submitters? Or say "Hey surfer you've clicked on 10 galleries and not found what you like so why not try one of these sites here... " and let them pick from a list of trade partner or submitter sites rather than "tricking" them by blind linking them to a trade partner site? Why not say "Look buddy you've hit your limit of free porn samples today , come back tomorrow or buy a membership at one of these fine porn sites below..."? Because if you give away free porn with long videos and hardcore money shot clips why the fuck should surfers pay for anything?

I think you gotta follow the money. See who is making out with the current structure of the tgp business model. Unfortunately though the people making the most money by keeping things the way they are have no incentive to change things.
