No point to do free sites when 30-40% of your hard earned traffic is blocking your source of income.

Traffic isn't a problem. The problem is coming up with something addictive enough to keep people coming back and staying put. Think of it in terms of a lake and a river.
Tubes go from streams, with little traffic which never stops to Oceans which are the first port of call when someone feels horny. If in 1995 someone was giving away enough porn to satisfy the urge. Sales would have sucked. We didn't so sales were great.
Surfers don't want to have to close a pop-up after watching porn.
Because they have no intention of buying from it. I advertised in magazines and the CTR 1-1,000 approx. This was in the days when people expected to pay for porn. If you fuck with surfers, do you expect them to buy more?
