Eva gave me the end of year figures for 2004 yesterday and they made very interesting reading.
The market definitely went "SOFT" in the beginning half of the year for
www.bargainbasementcontent.com but recovered to end the year higher than 2003. Which is the aim. but the dip was interesting.
www.paulmarkham.com stayed pretty strong all the year through and sales were up 17% on 2003.
Which makes me think why did one store dip and come back while the other stayed solid?
My opinion is that 2004 started with a lot of webmasters moving over to or starting with FHGs and free content, however when they saw the return on investment they moved back to or up to buying content.
Anyone else got an opinion?
Incidentally I am looking to buy non exclusive, new, teen boy girl content where the girl looks vaguely interested in what she is doing. So spam me pictures if you have it.
