    Is there still money to be made in porn?

    Are all the pipelines locked or something?

    One traffic
    source so far 0:1920

    Three years ago I did 1:300 constant and over 550% ROI with
    the same source and marketing methods and money invested,

    Is this the downfall of porn?

    We have YouTube kind of sites, we have
    filesharing, bittorrent and 1000s of tgps and mgps
    feeding the crowd...

    I read a study not too long ago that one of the things
    that is in the prospects mind when they make a buying
    decision is:: Can I get this for FREE somewhere else?

    I was like no shit, what does that have to do with porn sales?

    Can you still make $10K a month in this business?

    I went from 100 to 313,000 satoshis in 2 days! Lots of daily freerolls...

            Of course, there's still many ways to make a lot of money but you have to work hard, put in some efforts and think outside of the box that was made 15 years ago.

                Yes. Porn is a harder sell today than it was 3 years ago. Didn't think that information was classified.

                          Guess I need to give away more porn.. only way to survive really

                              Will assume you were being sarcastic. Giving away porn to sell it is a very flawed strategy that many "webmasters"... especially newbies... are practicing. It's the reason why conversion ratios have soared in the last few years, and why it's getting harder and harder to sell porn. There's just way too much free stuff out there.

                                imo the speed of connection and a wider use of dsl (less expensive than 56k) is a the real cause of the problem:
                                you can distribute your content easier and you can download it in seconds: you don't have to pay because you are looking for somthing free while your connection cost money, so it is less interresting to buy a membership.

                                    it's really not that hard to make 10k/month in this business - just find something that works for you and duplicate it

                                    just copying others wont work...you have to make something unique

                                    and dont stick to one site, make 100's of sites and duplicte the ones that work best/make the most $$$

                                    it's so cheap to try stuff in this business

                                    just my 2cents, it worked pretty well for me ;)

                                      Yeah, there's money in porn, and you can make $10,000 a month fairly easily. What are you selling? How are you trying to sell it?

                                          True, you have to find an USP
                                          and ask a few questions to yourself and maybe also
                                          to your market

                                          Thanks,

                                            Nope, no money to be made. Time to quit and get a job at the hut.

                                              i have 2 things to say

                                              don't judge on ratios, or atleast not on such a small number as 2K
                                              if you have links "click here to see more" or "click here to join for only 29.95/month" ... you can imagine ratios will be different etc etc

                                              if you think 10K profit can be made easy, then it will just drive you crazy
                                              Spank me
                                              Dude, where's my traffic?

                                                    Today, we still do hundreds of sales per day, so the money is still out there!

C'mon dude, its not 2001 .. Improve your skills and marketing methods, you need more and better input to make same output as you used to do.

                                                                But yes, I agree with you .. global conversions are falling, really. Mainly due to that "Can I get this thing somewhere free?" thing ... I personally think we only sell to amateur surfers or some dumbs. Any experienced bitch wont buy, because they know where and how to get same shit without paying a dime.

Mainly due to that "Can I get this thing somewhere free?" thing ... I personally think we only sell to amateur surfers or some dumbs. Any experienced bitch wont buy, because they know where and how to get same shit without paying a dime.
