    your opinion on $30/month or $35/month membership

    what is your opinion on charging the surfer $30 or $35 on a REALITY site with 1-2 weekly updates and access to 3 other reality sites?

    do you think it helps conversions to charge $5 less or what about chargebacks?

    there really is no difference, i would charge $39.99 a month, provided you have a nice AMOUNT of content and updates.


    Do i think it helps conversions charging 5 bucks less, NOPE.

      yea I figure it is more for the chargebacks though..
      they see some number under 30 such as 29.73 would be better than seeing like 34.73

        no, i don't think so.
        chargebacks = overexposed content and shitty feeds

        absolutely agree with greentea, but even amount is not so important if it's fresh exclusive content and good quality ofcourse.

          when the new chargeback stuff with visa first came up, i talked with a couple different folks at epoch. they said sites under $30 had less chargebacks than sites over $30. they were very clear about this.

          why not ask your processor this question? they will have thousands and thousands of transactions overall so their info will be pretty useful.

          also i was told when we were at ccbill that $24.95 has better rebills than $29.95. anyone care to comment?

            $19.95 has probaby even better rebills, but the question is - does that mean more money?


            no, I am not a paysite owner, but that's just common sense
            I don't use ICQ anymore.

              For me I have found that 23.95 is about the break point, anything more = less and anything less = less

                  I'm also curious about this...if a paysite at $19.95 currently is converting at 1:500 overall on front page hits, how badly would changing the price to $29.95 affect conversions?

                    on a price difference of that I do think it will make a difference in conversion. If it will be more profitable I do not know though...

                    another question I htink everyone has is how the price affects the rebills
