It's harder for a lot of sites to retain these days thanks in large part to piracy.

A person joins a site, then brags to their buddies about it. Their buddies laugh at them and then show them that same site available 100% free and linked up on surfer forums for easy access. Person then cancels.

That's why I protect our stuff and worked hard to try and keep it as exclusive as I can in my members area. I had to. And my advice to affiliates looking to promote a program is to first start googling up the sites and models appearing on the sites you are looking to promote.

If you find the entire members area ripped and available for free everywhere...then you are going to play hell selling it and having it retain.

And the big generic sites using those same couple of dozen girls out of L.A. over and over? Forget about it. My sales and rebills with those sites have all but disappeared. Those girls are available for free EVERYWHERE. I can't sell a scene with Puma Swede or Sara Jay or ~insert girl who shoots for every company here~ because there are hundreds of full scenes with those girls on every illegit tube and bit torrent site in the world.
