I would say you are entitled to your opinion but unfortunately you need more information to form a more knowledgeable opinion.
1. We promote many other programs as an affiliate so it is incorrect to say that we don't know what it is like from that side of things.
2. Legacy shmegacy, no one cares how long you have been around if you don't provide a good product then you are still going to go out of business. I can't count how many programs/brands/legacy companies that have disappeared trying to rest on prior laurels.
3. We use free content to promote ourselves just like everyone else. I do concede that we have an advantage because we have so much more content and you are not going to see the same content you got for free being the only thing you see in the pay area.
4. We are very in touch with our affiliates and the knowledge we glean through testing, refining, testing more is something that we share. We provide custom content, develop specific niche tours/sites, and support our affiliates any way possible. If you have never been our affiliate then you wouldn't know that but with that in mind maybe you shouldn't be so quick to make a judgment and cast aspersions on things you are entirely ignorant about.
5. We have multiple top ten listings in terms of reviews/views on the biggest tubes out there so if you haven't seen us that is not because we are not out there but perhaps because you didn't look closely enough.
6. The so-called "average" affiliate is most likely promoting too many programs - throwing up anything and everything hoping that one of them will magically be the be-all end-all of adult content that "converts like it was 1999!" They don't focus on the product, don't care about the service, disregard doing due diligence, etc. and hope to be successful. Not a recipe for success imo.
