Hi, back again.
First off, I am sure you are a nice guy ;) Just wanted to get that out of the way.
Now, let's talk numbers since you are.
You said 90% of traffic is from tubes you upload to. 600K*.9 = 540K. For every click, you get 2 type ins.
That means, you are getting around 360K people typing in the name of 1 of your sites per day. That is incredible, got a screenshot?
And maintaining 8 million views per day on all the tubes is out of this world. Imagine if those views were actually visits on your site? ;)
Let's say 8 million views = 2 million uniques (what is that number by the way?). So 2 million uniques. On your paysite... that would be about 5000 sales a day. Now just think about that for a second...
Back to current model, that's a lot of free views to sales ratio. Kinda see what i'm getting at? Bad model from the start, bad model till it ends.
Tubes don't need the sales though... that is just stocking stuffers (you said that). But they sure as hell need the content. Hence, the argument, devaluation of content.
What if someone came up with a tube/paysite that was popular like youporn, and funneled all the traffic to purchase a membership? ;)
