You have to realize a couple of things...they built those programs up a long time ago. AND they are not using the business model that you think that they are. Affiliates and "real" sales are a tiny, tiny fraction of the income for those guys. It's a numbers game for them involving business deals between themselves and other so-called "big programs"

Just like it was back in 1999 when the endless pop up business model was in full effect. Back then the "big programs" were ARS and Maxcash and a couple of others. They made millions of dollars on popping up a never ending stream of consoles that they got paid on. I used to make around 40 grand with each of those two programs every month at that time. And they were basically paying me for my traffic and "crediting" me sales. And if you had ever went into the members areas from that time period you would understand it. There was literally nothing there.

So what I'm saying is that you are thinking of it correctly IF bangbros/nasty dollars, brazzers, TCG were playing the same game as you are. But they aren't, they are doing something completely different than what you are talking about. They are creating massive revenue streams from other sources that are best not discussed on a forum full of surfers.

I used to send on average 50+ sales a day to Nasty Dollars back in 2002, 2003, and 2004. Can't make a sale now to them to save my life. Their sites still kick ass. Hell, they are even better than before. But they have a different business model now. And it's not based on sales to their members areas.
