Also differnt niches will vary. IR like blacked used to retain very well. Versus say solo girls which retain very poorly. Fake taxi. I have no idea. Fad ideas like that used to convert well and retain poorly. Not sure now.
Yes retaining can change the size of a site in regards to member bases but this brings me back to a post i made earlier:

"100 percent isn't worlds apart. That would be a site with 4000 members vs 2000 members. Is that worlds apart? Lets say there is 5 successful new sites in hardcore. One has 4000, one has 2,000, One has 3500, one has 4200.

Now if somebody asked you, what can i expect out of hardcore if i were to enter hardcore with a good budget and high quality content. Would i say its worlds apart, how deep is the rabbit hole?, thats an impossible question? No. Would you say that? I dont think so. I would say, well i'd say, expect 1500-2000+. Or maybe not expect, but , thats a realistic goal"


The bigger of those numbers would be the one who retains better, most likely. There are things that increase and decrease what a site can make, of course. Every site is different. But when you give projections of what a hardcore site should/could make in 2015. You give realistic goals given everything goes according to plan. Its what people do in business proposals. And it can be done and it can be fairly accurate
