Hmmm... I guess I am the last guy to read this post. Some interesting points raised by Jester and Sleazy.

I think we all agree that there is too much free porn on the internet. But lets take a look at the people that are buying memberships from our sponsors. Who is our target market? Is it some guy that just got on the internet yesterday and is just dying to look at all the porn he can? Is it some bookmarked surfer of JJJ's and finally decided he found a site that fits his specific sexual desire (niche)? Is it some educated surfer that has been on the internet for years? I think our target market is all of these people, because believe it or not people we are getting signups from all of these surfers.

It is almost impossible to imagine what is going on in the heads of these surfers. There is no feedback form that we can send to them to ask them questions on why they felt they wanted to sign up and how long they have been on the internet and what their demographic and sociological situation is. All we can do is sit back and look at our stats... Where did the surfer come from (which TGP) which gallery sold him on the membership. Did they buy a trial? How long did they recur. Unfortunately we can't get into the surfer's mind and figure out what made him sign up. If we could I think we would all be millionaires right now...

I think the one quote that made me make sense of all of this TGP nonsense was said by Larry Flynt in a webradio interview. "There will always be a marketplace for people who deliver quality."

I honestly think that if you make quality galleries and send that traffic to a quality sponsor program. You will always make money.
