Not sure what you mean, im very happy with the success of my solo sites. Its a softcore market based around one model, there is only so much of a market, my models who update are generally searched on freeones/google as much as most pornstars. Im definitely reaching the ceiling. And again, this thread wasn't really a complaint about that, it was moreso just to explain that i seek out future partnerships in a market with a very high ceiling, so even if i could get more out of my solo sites, i would still be making the move because im looking even higher than that. Even if I doubled all my solo sites, i would still be looking at hardcore within the next year or two. And I would still be looking to form partnerships or more help to reach such goals.

Autumn was one of the top searched models on freeones for her entire first year or possibly longer

I will continue to create sites for individual models even when I make the move into hardcore. Its just a smart thing to do. And I question why more companies dont do this. But its just not enough for where I wish to be within the next 2-3 years

And regarding your comment about shooting elsewhere, that doesn't actually help, there are exceptions, sure. But its a slippery slope. My sites maintain a large memberbase for years and years, for as long as i want to update it, most girls who go around and shoot with everybody are only searched up for a while before people stop caring and the top ones like Riley Reid, etc seem to find themselves in hardcore and never really realize the smartest way to go about it because obviously the people they work with dont want to lose such a big name to an exclusive company/site.

So what im basically saying is that shooting with other companies is not a good idea, unless its the odd shoot with playboy, metart, twistys or some other big brand softcore site but you have to make sure they dont continue to do these shoots with them or else itll start to go in the opposite direction

Mutt and I share sales information and his models do shoots with Hustler, MetArt, Playboy, etc so i am well aware of how much of an increase it gets you and the positives/negatives.
