Yes I'm sure she does very very well and you quoted her as an average customer of yours.

Any chance you can clear this up with better stats.

Anyway, I never said porn doesn't sell. I said it sells badly, which is a different thing. And that's true. The problem between me and so many is what they think of good, I think of as bad, often very bad.

You think a sales figure of and average daily NEW sales of 17 over the last month" from an average daily uniques of 1500 is good. I think converting 1-2647 is terrible. Especially with the type of traffic you tell us she has. Did I do my sums right?

1500 a day x 30 = 45000
45000 / by 17 = 2647.0588

17 x $60 = $1,020 before expenses.

You see why I'm not impressed and didn't rush into the paysite market?

So the difference here is what you consider good and I consider good. Maybe you gave me the wrong figures.
