Traffic is easy to get, we get some and do nothing to get it. Do we get enough? No of course not, in fact few get "enough" and always looking for more.

Does the place it comes from, the samples it sees, the tour page it lands on and a lot of other things like putting it through filters and finding out by stats what works best where? Yes.

Does great content convert better than crap content? Ask Met Art and compare with DVTimes.

Do you need stats to prove that?

Is it hard to create great content? Yes especially on crap money.
Is it hard to create content? No just point the camera.

Is it hard to create great quality traffic? Well that depends. If you have a site like Met Art, no. The problem is in creating the content. Yes build it that well and the traffic will come with a little work.

Is it hard to create traffic. No getting men to look at porn is about as easy as getting them to eat. So it seems to me after 34 years doing this.

Is it hard to get them to buy porn. Never was, they had to
Now it's extremely hard. Because all the guys who thought if they give porn away, traffic will come and some will buy. Even when day after day it took more traffic to achieve the same result few were looking at the end game, including me.

Getting one or two surfers to look at one porn video is traffic. So "traffic" is easy to get. Getting a million to look at the picture everyday is hard. Getting 1,000 of them to pay to look at it is getting increasingly harder. And that's what puts money into the pockets of the people who produce recorded porn which is the product most use to generate profit.

Fletch, go look for the Al Queda beheading videos. Men being killed and it being put online. Did I say it was for sale or for political ends? My fear is without laws governing what goes online, this will result in some guy thinking this is a way to make money. We've already seen tramps beating each other up.
