My worry is that they are not going to be able to understand the costs of running their sites, they'll look at the number of members and do some elementary math and go 'WTF? The site makes $10,000 a month, where's my 5 grand?'.

That's one of many reasons. I am pretty sure that most people here are familiar with Toni Freeland by now. The site is based on her but she does not get a percentage. We pay her a set figure per shoot and she gets a completion bonus for every so many updates we shoot. This completion bonus makes her more apt to return and continue shooting so she can hit the next "land mark" and get the extra money. Having her under contract for a set number of updates also helps.
Another way to keep the girls comming back, in the case of a single girl type of site, is to put them on a weekly webcam show and pay them $X each week for being there. We are starting this next week with Toni and in the future, we intend to allow her to upsell members for a 1 on 1, private show and give her a percentage of the upsell.
If she gets lazy on the private shows, we still maintain our profits from the regular site subscriptions.....In this case, it will only hurt her if she begins to slack off.
