However as Nicky says we can now monetise this free traffic at $10 per 20,000 surfers.

200,000 uniques a day = $100 a day. $36,500 a year. Less traffic, hosting, content, programs, etc. Must clear at least the wage of a Macdonalds burger flipper and you don't have to leave your bedroom.

I forgot to include the sign ups to the paysites featured on the Tube. Someone can do the maths for how well paysites sell off tubes giving away free porn.
If you are doing 200,000 unique a day and only making $100 a day, this business simply is not for you.

Free porn did not, and will not eliminate sales, I have said it before, and it does not change, affiliates do not sell porn, they sell traffic.

A surfer is not a customer, they are a comodity.

Realize these facts = make money.

The problem with most of the people bitching about not making any money is these are the same people that would make no money in any other chosen business.

Online porn business is not for everyone, probably 90% of the people here would make more money if they went out and got a job.
