I agree with you 100%. I don't own any sites, I just send traffic to affliate programs and I blantantly ask all my sponsors before I send to a certain site; "Is the members area good?" because I do NOT like to piss off the surfers who join. People will complain and/or chargeback for no reason at all... I don't like to give them reasons to be unsatisfied. I have a conscience and I feel really bad when people pay a LOT of money $40/$50+ for virtually nothing but short vids and a few pics.
Why does this industry (program/site owners) feel the need to have 9 kajillion different cookie cutter sites, instead of having a few high quality, regularly updated, mega sites? This should be about quality, not quantity. A bad/flimsy members area is like buying a magazine that is full of ads to buy more magazines inside. It's bad business and slowly, but surely hurts everybody in the industry.
Do you know how many hours an average person has to work to pay for a monthly membership? 2-5 hours more than likely... and what do they get for their money? Designers/producers need to start building and updating from a surfer's point of view. Surfers not only want to see what they paid for, but they want to see it as soon as possible. A porn site isn't a savory piece of candy that they want to chew slowly. They want fast, easy access/navigation to what they came to see... and I don't blame them. Time is money. I don't like wasting my time on any type of site that is lengthy and fluffed with extra crap, I'm sure surfers don't either.
I'm all for making money, but I also believe in delivering what people pay for or as close to their expectations as possible. It doesn't make me feel good to know people are potentially being ripped off (not saying that happens, but again, from their point of view...)
This industry needs higher standards all the way around. I don't push really hardcore sites... I do mainly cam site type of things, with no nudity on my pages... but I believe it would be in everyone's interest to contribute to better quality sites and in return have more satisfied, returning customers.
