My figures were based on yearly. Where are they wrong?

As I stated each case has to be looked at individually.

Robbie has little cost for content once he's bought equipment. CM is free. It seems they both work the traffic game themselves. And a great Ma & Pa operation. Nothing to do with my examples.

Manwin have probably found Tubes are far cheaper than affiliates and they're big enough to need a different model. It's easy to try and pick small holes in general examples.

10,000 sign ups and retain for a years is. 27.3 joins and retains a day. Is that figure so hard for a site like Met-Art, Twistys, etc?

Robbie applying it to him. It should be obvious what I was talking about.

A site with only 80 scenes in getting 110 joins or retains a day (40,000 a year).

For most it's their dream. Still once you start to drop lower than my lowest number of 10,000 you see how tough it gets. Go to low and 15% processing can kick in. Still costs the same to set up and run.

Remember prior to the drop of hosting BW prices. This was a big cost for some going the affiliates route with galleries and affiliates they hosted for.

I calculated traffic at 33% of sales rev going to affiliates and added the rest to cover promoting, marketing and support of affiliates. We all know some affiliates demanded a lot more than 50%.
I don't even know what to say. The way you view this industry is so mixed up. As an example the way you think solo girl site means a site with girls in solo scenes. The way you put together this entire spreadsheet. You made your money shooting content right? Stick to telling people about that because you obviously are completely lost in everything else. No disrespect just the hard truth.
