Twistys and Robbies sites are poles apart.

You can argue photography skills, lighting, etc all day but when it comes down to it..none of that really matters much in what most customers want. The exgirlfriend content has become really popular and a lot of it is shot with crappy point and shoot digital cameras, cellphones, etc...no photographic skills whatsoever but it sells because a lot of surfers love it. A camera and camera skills don't make a good photographer, it's their mark they put into their pictures...their own perception of what they are shooting.

The problem with ExGF content is any clown can shoot it, or what they call ExGF. Which is usually, a style of shooting professional models. I was shooting ExGF before your Dad fertilsed the egg in your Mum. We just called it "Readers Wives." Same stuff, different name. It's the fantasy that it's a real girl doing it for kicks and not pay. A girl you could meet or might live near you. Wasn't self shot, because we didn't have cameras that did that. We had Polaroids. Wow So cool to see online breaking new ground.

Take that all with a grain of salt though because I'm just a small affiliate and I don't do this for a living...it's just my opinion on all of this.

OK take some advice of someone who has been involved in porn since the mid 60s.
www.strictly-porn.com
Very very little has changed in porn. Fashions of clothing and shaven pussies and the technology is all that changed. And it's stronger these days, because of the diminished risk of prison. And the need to buy. 15 years ago, odds were you needed to buy it to enjoy it. Or take pot luck. That's something online porn did change. Very very little need today to buy it.
Still similar rules apply. Supply and demand.
If you can produce the level of Holly Randal at her best, you're in a very uncompetitive market. If you're selling something 1,000s can produce. You're scratching around competing with 1,000s of others. This is why Shap was successful, Met-Art very successful, Robbie to a lesser degree and ExGF sites, even though this has always been a good niche. Hard to make a lot of money in. If you compare it with other sites in markets that are not saturated with options of where to buy from.
Just seen the thumbs Jimmy posted of Hegre. Few can shoot that level and those few do well. Supply and demand. Not just demand if it's over supplied. The demand is per supplier. Very low,
