there arenīt fewer affiliates you moron.
but affiliates are not any more people who do websites.
affiliates today are big media buying companies with a mass of employees.
and true - this guys do not know how to get traffic but they know MUCH better how to convert it.

Shows are tiny compared to a few years ago and mostly non porn sites. Never seen you at a show.
where did you get this information from ?

the affiliate world shows in berlin, barcelona, bangkok and wherever are shows with thousands of attendees. and yes 1/3 of them is adult.

andreas and walter with their summits do have problems to find hotels big enough.

what a fuck are you talking about ?

In fact give us some piece of the industry being 20-50 times higher. Not ad selling as that's not an indicator, we want to see actual paysites.
why are you nailed on paysites?
yes there are still some bringing money - and I can see even a growth in the past 2 years. but this paysites are just a fraction of what is sold on porn.

and yes they do not have much affiliates anymore because even adultwebmasters learned that they can make more money by selling more products and leave the risk on the one who pays for the advertising.

additionally the really big sites have own media buying teams (some of them are HUGE)
they are no longer dependent on direct-affiliates.

in the old times we had in example in the german market like 10.000 who made some money with adult. now we have maybe 500 big ones left. and they make MUCH more as the 10.000 together.

it is a question of going with the market and not against it.
you are not able to go with the market because you do not have skills for it.
but this is what business is. the smart ones survive the dumb ones are crying and wish back the good old times.
this is in every biz like that - and you are the proof.
