Well, couple things...
True... paysite rebills are the benefit there. But you gotta promote the hell out of what you can offer inside, on the tour. (obviously)
The perk with AVS, is you don't really need much on the inside, because you can offer them access to all the other sites in the system for free with just the one membership... so it's kinda like offering tons of content that doesn't hafta come from you.
The downside to AVS, is there's a helluva alot more dorrs they can choose besides yours to buy that membership. So you're competing with all the other doors for that money. Whereas your own paysite, only has your door. Yeah, you compete with the other paysites, but if they want into yours, there's only one way in.
So... I don't know if that helps, but there's plusses and minuses to both. I always say, do both. Never put all your eggs in one basket. It's always easy to shut something down if it doesn't work out.
And with AVS, you can get it free hosted with no banners, so there's really no up front risk. (I should be working for somebody's marketing dept)
Now, with CyberAge, they're only gonna give you so much disk space to start with. They'll give you more if you ask, but the sites you have up need to be converting and making sales before they'll bump your disk space.
ProAdult, on the other hand, will give you what you need. No caps.
