      Started out good this month but real bad today.

      If your honestly getting 1 in 20,000 of any google traffic to damn near anywhere.. we might as well turn out the light, the party's over.

      But things eb and flow. It has been a little bit better the last 30 days than the previous 30.

          Had a guy who recurred since 2002 end today. He ended in a bang too.

          (38.97) in Nifty Stats... charged back two months for some odd reason.

          But I love the guy/girl anyhow. SEVEN years he/she recurred to a pretty much now long defunct paysite.

          I hooked a porn whale folks. He finally swam off today.

            One more thing on eb and flow..

            In Sept 2002 I had about 40 recurrs with a paysite. After the infamous Oct 2002 I had ONE. I lost 39 recurs in one month that had been recurring for 2-3 years. Really Oct 2002 is when this biz first went to hell. I do believe that was with IBill but long before they officially went belly up.

            Anyhow in that month Oct 2002, I hooked the aforementioned whale. he recurred for 7 years. I lost every other recur but this guy started out with CCBill in the same month.

            Eb and flow. Never a neg without a poss and vice versa.

            Frustrating at times.

            And I still don't know where the recurs went.

                Conversion are bad. Almost non existent.

                The exponential explosion of torrents and p2p is what did it.

                Word spread fast amongst college students and co-workers.

                      The more people that give up, the more sales I get. Odd, huh?

                          Signups sucks for me. Some days I even make more with Google Adsense on my mainstream 1000/visits per day site. It's crazy. *cry* *cry*

                                  Maybe that is what it will take. But even that won't stop the internet. It has an (illegal) life of it's own and it is moving on and taking no prisoners in 2009.

                                    the recent reports are nuts, did you know that over 70,000 people lost their jobs in the music industry, more people listen to music now than ever but fewer are paying for it.

                                    "One credible analysis by the Institute for Policy Innovation concludes that global music piracy causes $12.5 billion of economic losses every year, 71,060 U.S. jobs lost, a loss of $2.7 billion in workers' earnings, and a loss of $422 million in tax revenues, $291 million in personal income tax and $131 million in lost corporate income and production taxes. For copies of the report, please visit www.ipi.org."

                                    this is just music, think about software, movies etc

                                    approx 400 million dollars a day is being stolen!

                                    yes laws will be passed one day, we pass laws when its way to late thou.

                                    It will be a simple law, you have stolen property on your server you are just as big as a criminal as if you have stolen TV's in your car, and if you host anything that helps stealing you are charged criminally

                                    this will happen, not because its hurting adult but because entire industries are facing total collapse

                                      Couldn't agree more, I'd like to see it happen tomorrow or at least pass some laws but I don't know if you can stop p2p in one form or another which is basicly what even youtube is.. a p2p for video.

                                          if you think sign ups are bad now
                                          wait til we get closer to July 4th weekend.
                                          All of you will be sucking dick to make ends meet.
                                          Point being we have yet to hit the lowest point of the year.

                                          February is traditionally the strongest month of the year, it didnt feel that strong this year.

                                            Im still more then ok to be honest.
                                            Its a LOT more work though, and im seeing a lot of guys giving up and moving into mainstream lately.

                                            But i dont know why that would convert better. So unless things turn bad for me, im stcking with it

                                                Yup, highly targeted SEO traffic - conversions in their thousands.

                                                But for a mainstream product with relatively targeted traffic my conversions are 300-ish

                                                Go mainstream ,fuck porn (lol)

                                                            "One credible analysis by the Institute for Policy Innovation concludes that global music piracy causes $12.5 billion of economic losses every year, 71,060 U.S. jobs lost, a loss of $2.7 billion in workers' earnings, and a loss of $422 million in tax revenues, $291 million in personal income tax and $131 million in lost corporate income and production taxes. For copies of the report, please visit www.ipi.org."

                                                            this is just music, think about software, movies etc

                                                            approx 400 million dollars a day is being stolen!

                                                            yes laws will be passed one day, we pass laws when its way to late thou.

                                                            It will be a simple law, you have stolen property on your server you are just as big as a criminal as if you have stolen TV's in your car, and if you host anything that helps stealing you are charged criminally

                                                            this will happen, not because its hurting adult but because entire industries are facing total collapse
                                                            Yet Brittney still has 100million in the bank.

                                                            Sounds to me like they need to be a little more innovative and find a way.

Maybe then it'll like dawn on you how people who produce and market their own content might be having a difficult time competing with cocksuckers who are giving the exact same content away for free.

                                                                                      But that was a fucking dumbass statement no matter how you slice it.

                                                                                      How about you take this opportunity to wipe the shit off your nose and take a deep breath of fresh air. Maybe then it'll like dawn on you how people who produce and market their own content might be having a difficult time competing with cocksuckers who are giving the exact same content away for free.

                                                                                      Then again, maybe I'm giving you too much credit.

                                                                                            While in porn you might be looking for something specific, most of the time you will get off to anything -- you will just get off more when you find that specific thing.

                                                                                            But in mainstream a video converter won't complement for a malware detector

I lost 39 recurs in one month that had been recurring for 2-3 years. Really Oct 2002 is when this biz first went to hell. I do believe that was with IBill but long before they officially went belly up.
