Obviously the latter.

Thing that I don't get is his end game.
It's probable the voters were fellow trolls, so not that insulted.

My end game.

When I first came online to sell content direct I was truly shocked at the level of most of the content. It was abysmal. Only a very very few could of moved up to the higher paying markets of offline porn. The mistakes were simple and many.

The emphasis was on giving away as much free porn as possible and selling sites full of crap. The "If you have enough traffic you can sell anything." Was the rule. This is totally true. But if you have a great product, you can sell more to the same traffic and keep them buying longer.

The problem was no one was willing to compete with what offline paid shooters or spent in house on shooting a good to great product. It costs money to invest in a good shooters to shoot good content and online simply couldn't invest that kind of money. So the went the other route of giving away free porn to sell to a tiny minority.

12 years later the wall is clearly in view. There was no light at the end of the tunnel. There was a wall.

Where 1,000s consume free porn for every one who buys. This has cost the whole industry billions. It's costs sponsors billions. The only people who made money were people like you, people like Robbie, people whose only job was to give away free content. They were over paid, over indulged and over valued.

And the sales method of online porn us now slowly killing it.

Now you can see it. And it's cool to sit here and remind you. That's my end game.

Damian I have enough money to sit back and not worry about the future. I could pay for your ticket, my reason is simply I don't trust you to turn up. I could sell you the site for the best 6 months, let you have access to CCBILL to verify it. Why don't I? I don't trust you to keep you word, just get access to our CCBILL account and troll. Anyone who can write I'm a pedophile isn't someone to be trusted.

In the business world. If you see a product which you think is a bankable goldmine and is run by a fool. You look closely at the product. Think of what you could do with it and make an offer. Not come up with some formula based on what you think others pay for a product. It's about what it's worth to you to buy and me to sell.

PK I know it's yours, I never said it was mine. I said I had it.

It's very very basic marketing and it shows how easy it is to learn marketing. Read an article, book, etc. And away you go. I was waiting for others to tell me what shit advice it is. Guess you never thought of that.

And here's more advice on marketing. http://ilovebs.masteryan.com/theres-no-money-in-porn it's that easy to find.

Shooting porn is a lot tougher. Unless you shoot your wife, at home, with a camera from the cupboard.

It needs equipment, $1,000s worth. Models at $300 to $3,000 a day. And more, like location, make up, etc every time a shoot happens. Above all you need real skills that can't be picked up from a book. Because you're working with people who can be easy or a nightmare to get the best from.

I guess you're not even bright enough to figure out why I didn't spend all my time making a solo girl site.

I could see enough Ma & Pa operations like yours to see I was better off doing something you couldn't.

So far no one has come up with a reply to my question.

Is there a solution and is it an affordable solution to the decline in paysite sales?

Nor has anyone countered my post of why good content is more important than good marketing. Because of the difficulty of creating good content and the ease of creating good marketing. Seems enough of you just in this thread who claim to be experts at it to prove that right.
