So when I find articles stating the opposite are you going to argue with those?

The truth is no one knows because the porn industry is based around small companies who don't have to issue figures of turnovers. So all estimates are guesses. Today even with large companies how many issue figures that can be checked?

What we all know is that if the porn industry was making 9 times what it made in 2001, everyone would be swimming in money. Click prices would be much higher, traffic prices would be much higher.

Quote:
Across all its sites, Manwin said it got about 70 million visitors per day. This figure may also be inflated because, as other studies have shown, porn sites are built to be click generators. Every mouse click on a video or still can kick off many more as a viewer is re-directed to affiliated sites, adverts or pop-ups.
I suggest you read he article.

And I suggest you read this Forbes article. https://www.forbes.com/2001/05/25/05...l#3529db9c7984

It will be revealing.
