regardless of what people say about old/non-exclusive content, if you can find a gap in the market, you'll do just fine. It never set the world alight, but it did fine, while I had the right traffic for it, even with what has never been a good tour. retention was about average, so the actual content wasn't really a problem. The tour for sure as well as join page etc certainly never helped.

surfers looking for interracial porn liked it, joined, stayed - volume of those is very low though, and unless you can also throw 'normal' lesbian traffic at it (which I managed to do for a short while after ranking for 'lesbian porn'), either yourself or via affiliates, it's more of a repeat this x times per niche kind of paysite, than one that is/was ever going to bring in big bucks on it's own.

More than paid for itself, and the time I spent on it, but definitely a rinse/repeat type model than a much larger, constantly updated exclusive content site that is going for far larger volume
