Of course, exclusive is making more money, if the site is really good, it gets a lot of attention, many webmasters, thats the goal about exclusive. But it doesnt mean, you cannot make money with non-exclusive paysites. 10-20k/month/site is sure possible even without many webmasters.
FOR SOMEONE STARTING OUT eXCLUSVIE FOR THE WHOLE SITE IS GOING TO BE VERY EXPENSIVE 100 (fuck caps lock)

100 sets will be a very small site and at exclusive that will be $30K, add on some exclusive videos to half the sets at $150 and you're looking at investing $37,500 and those are rock bottom prices and I shudder to think what you wil get for that.

Add in some boy girl and you can be looking at $2,000 each, 10 set/videos = the bast part of $50,000 for content.

Now go out and look at what you can buy for that price. Well my whole inventory for $12,000 plus a years update for $8,000 so you going to be getting up to the minute sets, exclusive for the viewer seeing them for the first 2 months. So there's 1400 set or videos plus 8 new ones a week.

Now where to spend the other $30,000???

So what would you like to be marketing guys, a site with 1400 sets and videos, a lot of them bloody good, with 8 new sets added every week and not over exposed or a site of 150 set or videos shot by someone working for peanuts.

Maybe you could spend the $30,000 on marketing to webmasters. Now we have another side, what will impress an experienced webmaster when considering whether to market a site?

A small site of limited quality, but exclusive. Or a big site of good content with regular updates?
