http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats.htm the growth in US and EU is good, but the new growth is clearly in places we will have trouble selling to.
Why only post a part of it?

If this amazing growth has been going on and will continue to go on. Why are incomes shrinking? They should be growing at the same rates online revenues are increasing in other businesses.

People keep quoting out of context.

Who has 100k uniques that converts 1-100? Not 1-100 clicks on a banner. 1% of all his traffic ends up buying? No Jel we are talking about traffic looking at porn on a porn site. Very few sites converted at 1-100, not even in the good days. The mix of traffic was good and bad. As for affiliates, it's the traffic on their site. No point in just counting those interested enough to look at paid porn, you have to include those looking at free porn.

A potential customer base is all those who like and consume the product. Not only the ones prepared to pay for it. That's a losers excuse. Ever heard "No one is buying today boss." Replied "No failure, no one is selling today."

Very very few have that kind of quality traffic. That's traffic from inside a paysite or SE traffic of the highest quality in a main stream niche. Micro niche might do the ratio, but not the quantity of traffic.

So let's assume I am wrong and millions lore porn consumers who can buy are coming online every week. Then why are incomes falling at a rate never known before?

Because that's the problem you guys have to solve.

As for the replies you guys dream up. I look at what you "experts" have done to porn. You had an opportunity to sell to billions. You gave it away to billions and basically killed the Goose That Laid The Golden Egg.
