    Once a week isn't enough.

    To retain people buying memberships. http://www.xbiz.com/news/129869



    It's like adding a new scene every week, it's just not enough to keep members buying. Either from your site or another one.

    I saw a thread today from an affiliate looking for solo girl sites that do weekly shows and there were quite a few answers. So I'm assuming that members and affiliates like live shows.

    So why don't these sites get together and share their live shows with each other, even if it's only 7 that ups the shows to once a day. An excellent way to upsell to each other, retain and attract more members. Done with 14, 21, 28, etc. The snowball starts to roll. Customers will start to think the norm is live shows, they will want more and more and if the shows are good provide affiliates with an effective tool to compete against sites who give away free pre recorded porn.

    The days of selling pre recorded porn are numbered. Adapt or die.

      Once a week seems to work perfectly fine when looking at actual conversion/retention numbers. Some types of content must to update more, others can update even less than once a week. So rather than using your advice with no numbers to support it, I recommend people stick to what they are doing, and do what your numbers tell you.

      The future is whatever provides the most privacy, based on a technology. Cams are no different than paysites.. not everyone can convert cams, not everyone can convert paysites, and you can always find many people that kill it on both. It's not about being live, or being recorded - it never has been - it's always been about privacy first, and always will be.

          So once a week will work better than once a day?

          If a surfer wants privacy nothing beats a Tube site. No login, no credit card, no email required, no spam from ex sites and complete privacy.

          Shit why didn't I think of that?????????????

              One site I promote has 3 exclusive updates per day, 7 day's a week. It's also niche which makes It retain very well.

                  Yes, in many cases updating once a day simply isn't cost effective. Daily updates, doesn't mean you'll get more sales, and it doesn't mean you'll retain so much better that it covers the costs.

                  Some sites do perfectly fine with weekly updates and it would be completely pointless for them to update more.

                  No, a tube site visitor isn't one of our customers, that isn't the type of privacy we're talking about....which every free site is part of as well, and always has been. We're talking about privacy as in: PC vs Mobile - Mobile is a MUCH more private way to view, secure, enjoy, etc your porn OVER the family PC.

                      By sharing the shows there is no real additional cost.

                      Who said it had to be reserved to computers, can work for cell phones as well.

                      The draw is it's live, it's real and it's happening NOW somewhere in the world. And it can't be given away for free.

                      No, a tube site visitor isn't one of our customers,

                          Are they sharing the costs? So if TB is on board with my live show, who is covering that bill? If I have the hot girl that everyone likes, then what?

                          Live cams, isn't the future... it has taken a hit just like paysites have, it's just another way to get your porn, in another flavor - that just like paysites - not everyone likes. The future is the "privacy" item, the porn being sold on it makes no difference... be it recorded, live, etc.

                              Well you will have to take the cost of the BW but that's nothing.

                              Nothing is as private as Free porn. Even on a cell phone people get spammed. That's how a lot of them sell by sending out spam on the phone. I get text messages all the time on mine. Good luck to the guy who doesn't want to be found out having his wife see the message.

                              Once you give info over there's no privacy. The less you give the more private it is. Good luck selling cell phone sex when the users realise pornhub is on their cell phone.

                                  The Doc would be correct.

                                  We used to update daily ourselves. However what we found, especially after we had gotten over the 1000 scene mark, was that almost all members watch their favorite scenes over and over again. Most members do not even watch all of the scenes available to them. They just find a favorite that hits the spot and watch that over and over.

                                  Sure, there is an exception for every rule. Myself personally, I am always hunting for new porn that 'hits the spot' in foot worship. But not everyone is like me and requires those updates as the TRACKING DATA shows.

                                  For those niche type of sites, you are better to spend a few bucks more on the girls and scenes, and make them longer. Then you can update once per week, or every few days, and get more ROI.

                                  Of course, all of this comes down to KNOWING what your clients want in the first place.
                                  Should You Email Your Members?

                                      Yeah, cost is nothing... Until you have to fork over the cost of 10,000 gigs of data being sucked off your machines, monthly. As a content plugin owner, you're out of your mind.

                                      This isn't about billing privacy, this is about PERSONAL privacy, at that personal privacy of CUSTOMERS - not free loaders too afraid to buy anything online, someone I don't give a single shit about either way.

                                      Most tubes are mobile ready... it makes no difference. It's not free porn's privacy people are after, or billing privacy... It's the PERSONAL privacy smart devices offer, and other various technologies offer.

                                      I know you hate tubes/piracy, etc.. fact is this, they sell off the mobile for $50k-$100k+ month over month, because it converts, month over month. They broker over unique Countries/traffic sources, types of traffic... month over month, year after year. They sell dating, cams, and many of the monster ones, do well over a 100+ sales a day through the single menu premium links alone.

                                      I know you want to hate them so much... fact is, people don't access them for privacy, they don't even access them to not have to pay.... they access them TO FIND PORN. And as soon as you can understand that most basic ideal behind that, you'll be able to move past this stupidity that people don't buy anymore.

                                          True dat....

                                          What I've found is this... The customer expects exactly what the tour sells them, not a single thing more and not a single thing less.

                                          If you sell weekly, daily, monthly or no updates at all, that's exactly what they expect. If you're selling an archive, that's exactly what they expect. If the videos are crappy, but unique content, that's exactly what they expect.

                                          They don't expect daily, hourly, or updates at all... they expect exactly what we sell them. Knowing your customer though, will greatly improve your chances of hitting those self expected marks. Like dealing in glamor, is going to require a serious level of quality to compete.

                                                      it's already being done, shared camshows between different paysites isn't a new idea. and they don't mean much when it comes to rebills, camshows in general don't mean much, it's a very small %, at most 10%, of solo girl site members who view the camshows.

                                                      i gave the members of my solo girl site a chance to voice their opinion - i asked them whether they'd prefer Jewel to be part of a camshow network where they could also see other solo girl site models' camshows OR keep Jewel's camshows exclusive to her members only. They answered unanimously that they joined the site for Jewel, they'd rather have her to themselves.

                                                      She's a busy student so I can't ask her to do 2 shows a week - if she wasn't so busy I'd get her to do one members only show a week and another on a shared camshow network.

                                                      Live camshows are and always have been grossly overrated on paysites.
                                                      I moved my sites to Vacares Hosting. I've saved money, my hair is thicker, lost some weight too! Thanks Sly!

                                                                              If this industry had a clue about what it's clients wanted it would be making money like it used to.

                                                                              I'm not bringing down cell phone porn, in fact we've been pushing it for over 5 years, loads of our sales are to cell phone companies, we advertise in their trade magazines and we used to go to the conventions for cell phone content. The market is huge, ring tones, games, gambling and porn. I just don't think it's that private. It has to be billed and a lot of the marketing relies on spamming cell phones.

                                                                              Plus storing scenes in your phone and even explaining to your wife why your bill is so large all leads to getting caught. Real privacy is in not paying and those that want it know this.

                                                                              But sneaking a quick jerk off in the toilets while at work is an excellent sales point.

Now she does a show for her members only and they like it more. She only does this show once a month giving them all lots of notice to be there.

                                                                                      Content is what they are buying, it's what they are looking for. It's like saying the music content in the music industry is king - of course it is, it's exactly what the people are looking for. If you hate bondage, you don't buy bondage, just like if you hate rap, you don't buy it.

                                                                                      Going back... if content was king, theaters would still do good. But the vcr changed that privacy aspect and brought it into the home. If content was king, ownership of the tape/dvd would rule. But then the pc came along, it moved the level of privacy up another notch. Now you didn't have to go out in public and rent/buy. But now the wife/kids can still find it - out of site, out of mind isn't an option yet. Then the smart phone and other technologies are coming along, and the separation of personal privacy grows even more, out of sight out of mind grows even more... the level of privacy greatly increases.

                                                                                      For 40 years 'people' have selected porn for two reasons.. Ease to access/get it, and how secret/private that access is. Follow the technology back and then look forward at all the various options... the path it has taken is clear.

They answered unanimously that they joined the site for Jewel, they'd rather have her to themselves.

They are the perverts of the perverts. Some like solo sites, "just one girl" - While others prefer a fetish or a mega site. It's all good. I think the porn biz is quite wonderful. Give people what they need and they will love you for it.

Dont quote me on it, but I know that was somewhat the situation around the split.

It's like saying the music content in the music industry is king - of course it is, it's exactly what the people are looking for. If you hate bondage, you don't buy bondage, just like if you hate rap, you don't buy it.
                                                                                                          Content is still what they are looking for, everything else is a feature or added benefit.

                                                                                                          Content is king; would you go see or buy a crappy movie? Delivery mechanism is secondary unless the buyer is looking, specifically, for a format. In that case it becomes a requirement for purchase but some people are willing to STILL buy something not in the format they want (e.g. DVD over BluRay) if the content is just that fucking good Nobody is going to buy crappy content (unless for some novelty reason) no matter what the format.

Now you didn't have to go out in public and rent/buy. But now the wife/kids can still find it - out of site, out of mind isn't an option yet. Then the smart phone and other technologies are coming along, and the separation of personal privacy grows even more, out of sight out of mind grows even more... the level of privacy greatly increases.

                                                                                                          For 40 years 'people' have selected porn for two reasons.. Ease to access/get it, and how secret/private that access is. Follow the technology back and then look forward at all the various options... the path it has taken is clear.
                                                                                                          They've purchased it for the content... Everything else is secondary and tertiary... It HAS to start with good content. I guarantee I could sell Polaroid pics on the street today if the content was crazy hot ;)

It may sell either way, one way makes you a lot more money.

                                                                                                                  Content is king; would you go see or buy a crappy movie? Delivery mechanism is secondary unless the buyer is looking, specifically, for a format. In that case it becomes a requirement for purchase but some people are willing to STILL buy something not in the format they want (e.g. DVD over BluRay) if the content is just that fucking good Nobody is going to buy crappy content (unless for some novelty reason) no matter what the format.

                                                                                                                  They've purchased it for the content... Everything else is secondary and tertiary... It HAS to start with good content. I guarantee I could sell Polaroid pics on the street today if the content was crazy hot ;)

                                                                                                                  I'm not saying that both privacy and format choice aren't major factors in the equation by any means, they certainly are! But content is, and always will be, ZI KING!
                                                                                                                  When selling a repeat buy product it will always be king. People don't buy the same brand or even product over and over because it was shit and the promoters kept sending them there.

                                                                                                                  The problem with this part of the porn industry is it simply isn't willing to pay the cost of shooting quality content.

                                                                                                                  I know I've said this over and over but it's still true.

                                                                                                                  The mags paid us well enough to get it right. It was paid for when it went to print, so even if on the editors shelf, it's not bought until it's in print. If we produced rubbish we went bankrupt.

                                                                                                                  For 2 solo girl sets of a good girl shot in one day we could get $8,000 return on sales. NO CUSTOM EXCLUSIVE INTERNET PORN SHOOTER HAS EVER MADE THAT. To my knowledge, but I'm sure they will all say they had.

                                                                                                                  In truth if they had sold sets to magazines, they wouldn't be shooting 4-5 solo girl sets and videos for $1500 to $2,000 for the day. We weren't shooting for that money, we didn't have to.

                                                                                                                  Yes times have changed, about 5 years ago. So all the "bro" custom shooters around then and now, were either not good enough shooters or not good enough businessmen to make a call. That's all it took to go and see the editors and submit work.

                                                                                                                  And neither were the sponsors bright enough to make their members areas content profitable without a single member seeing it.

                                                                                                                      Didn't you say you used to share jerk off magazines years ago? Seems you weren't that interested in privacy or blowing smoke.

                                                                                                                      Those who want privacy will go to free porn sites. They are spoilt for choice. So how private is porn on a cell phone?

                                                                                                                      Does it require billing if so will the charge show up on a credit card bill or a phone bill, does selling it involve spamming the number if not how do you market to the end user on the Internet or on the phone. Are scenes downloaded to the phone stored on the phone. In fact what privacy does it involve?

                                                                                                                      You could sell more if the person never had to see you, know you, see anyone, make a private behind the scenes transaction and view/enjoy it in total privacy. It may sell either way, one way makes you a lot more money.

                                                                                                                      I can guarantee you now, you take the best content in the world and lay it in a church, every man will turn away, yell, cry sins... give it to them in the privacy of home, no wife around and the dick comes out and the fantasies start.

                                                                                                                      Without privacy, the best porn in the world has no chance.
                                                                                                                      How did Larry Flynt, Hugh Heffner, Paul Raymond, David Sullivan, David Gold, Berth Milton, and more ever amass such fortunes selling porn that people had to walk into a shop to buy. Your logic is made illogical by the facts.

                                                                                                                      In fact how did you and your mates buy magazines to swap and not reveal yourself as wankers to all who knew you and knew your friends?

                                                                                                                      Probably TheDoc is so wrapped up in his privacy theory he's blind to the obvious. Yes no one wants to be caught with a pile of porn, but all bought porn leaves a trail.

If you can't figure out people need alone time to enjoy porn, and that alone time is called privacy, the type of privacy EVERYONE looks for when it comes to porn.....

Preferably the tour as well. It can make a big difference for conversions and rebills at that threshold.

                                                                                                                                          Again, we're talking about privacy, alone time, me time, time without kids, wife, buddies so you can stoke the cock - that type of privacy.

                                                                                                                                          It's not possible for me to explain this to you anymore... it's very clear and very easy to understand.

                                                                                                                                          Do people jack off in porn stores? No...

                                                                                                                                          If you can't figure out what type of privacy we're talking about then you truly are a complete idiot.
                                                                                                                                          So the privacy is the ability to sneak off to the loo to have a wank.

                                                                                                                                          Men have been doing that for decades.

                                                                                                                                          And yes you can jerk off in a porn shop. Go work it out you're too dumb to explain how.

                                                                                                                                          How did anyone sell porn when there was a chance they would get caught? The cell phone invented private porn.

                                                                                                                                          The sad thing is clowns like that are now trying to sell porn. No idea of the business, market or consumer and probably thinks if you sling enough mud at the wall some will stick.

                                                                                                                                          All industries have a way of weeding out the dumb. 33 years in this industry speaks for itself.

                                                                                                                                          People need privacy to jerk off????????????????????????????? Fucking amazing.

                                                                                                                                              Men have been doing that for decades.

                                                                                                                                              And yes you can jerk off in a porn shop. Go work it out you're too dumb to explain how.

                                                                                                                                              How did anyone sell porn when there was a chance they would get caught? The cell phone invented private porn.

                                                                                                                                              The sad thing is clowns like that are now trying to sell porn. No idea of the business, market or consumer and probably thinks if you sling enough mud at the wall some will stick.
                                                                                                                                              Seriously... No wonder you're a failed failed pornographer.

Preferably the tour as well. It can make a big difference for conversions and rebills at that threshold.

The returns don't pay them enough or it's better to launch a new site with the new content.

The returns don't pay them enough or it's better to launch a new site with the new content.

If the tour doesn't sell weekly, monthly or updates at all the customer doesn't "expect it."

You sell to pornographers - your consumer business completely failed.

If the tour doesn't sell weekly, monthly or updates at all the customer doesn't "expect it."

                                                                                                                                                                              Stop assuming every surfer wants/requires the same thing....
                                                                                                                                                                              Okay but now we're talking about updating at least once a month. Look at it from the POV of both the surfer and the affiliate promoting them on a revshare basis. What incentive does the surfer have to not cancel their membership if there is likely not going to be any new content next month? It makes a big difference.

                                                                                                                                                                              It's also a good idea to update the tour so that returning customers who canceled will be more likely to join since they will know they haven't seen it all before.

                                                                                                                                                                              You don't like my posts? Put me on ignore or fuck right off. I'll say what I want.

The standards are high, the market is limited the ROI on investment is 10 times what what custom shooter earn.

Saw too many lame asses like you running pip squeak businesses to think it was the pot of gold many talked about.

You don't promote to customers, you don't have enough members to even get a response from polls, you don't sell any other niches, you don't know shit about your own customers - let alone mine.

Look at it from the POV of both the surfer and the affiliate promoting them on a revshare basis. What incentive does the surfer have to not cancel their membership if there is likely not going to be any new content next month? It makes a big difference.

                                                                                                                                                                                              It's also a good idea to update the tour so that returning customers who canceled will be more likely to join since they will know they haven't seen it all before.
                                                                                                                                                                                              They expect what is sold to them on our a tour... period!

                                                                                                                                                                                              What you're doing, is telling them what to expect - when that wasn't sold to them. If you have 5 scenes on a tour, don't talk about updates, etc - a member expects 5 scenes, that's it! If you sell updates - then they expect that...

If you never update and they can tell this by the fact that they never see any new updates why wouldn't they cancel? Do you buy the same Movie on DVD over and over again? Would you subscribe to HBO for one year if all they did was show the same 5 movies over and over with no updates? Of course you wouldn't. If you're not updating once a month you're significantly hurting your rebill rate. I know this doesn't mean as much to many sponsors who now focus mainly cross sales and carding schemes but back in the day retention was one of the primary concerns that a paysite operator had.
