    yup, thats the problem, that the price don't reflect the real opportunity to make sales, some owners ask a lot, some ask less...I would like to know how some of them figured the price they ask for the spots. One example, worldsex is asking $500 per spot, the same as hun until now, but we all know the difference in both sites...

        I know some sites with the same prices over years, and they are available each time I ask, mostly on the next day...I would guess, its a part of image of the site.

          I agree, probably the most overlooked issue in this industry, you make an agressive gallery and you're going to get higher ratios.

          This problem bothers me when I am making my FHG templates. Personally I like to make them very aggresive. Prime up the surfer with some good content and then shuffle them off to the tour ASAP!

          The only drawback, it makes your conv. ratios look worse.
          & SINCE EVERYONE THINKS CONV RATIOS ARE SO IMPORTANT
          you stand chance of being judged wrongly because of their own ignorance.

            Truth and how do you avoid that? Blind links have horrible conversion but we all know it can lead to bank if done well.

              yeah, a major difference in quality but worldsex uses free hosted galleries, he doesn't need people to buy gallery spots

                    I think he didn't mean blind links, there are many types of galleries, my last spot on thehun made almost the same amount of sales, but the gallery was "aggresive", so the ratio was 1:1700 raw, not 1:800 like now...different ratios, the same result

                          My last 2-5 spot broke even the first couple days and then the recurring was kicking in. Still have a few active members from that spot 9 months ago

                          Can't wait for my topspot in January

                                  Soon it will be almost impossible to make good profit from the big tgps. Personally i couldnt be bothered spending 10k a month, a lot of time and energy on thumbs, galleries, etc just to make 1k profit.

                                  Yes, it will still be able to make profit from a 650 spot...the question is how much.
                                  A lot of people lose money on spots, they are just keeping the mouth quiet about it.If you are a paysite owner and you break even it's not bad, because webmasters will see your galleries all over the place, and maybe signup for your program

                                            those are 800 raw hits, so probably 600 unique visitors, on a #1 hun spot, on a gallery with high CTR, I would say, its more than ok average submitters do 1:600+ with 2% CTR on more quality traffic

                                              I agree with biskoppen and Bat...

                                              It's getting harder and harder to make good profits with spots because prices are going up and never come down.

                                              You'd have to be a paysite owner nowadays to make good profit on a topspot @ TheHun.

                                                It's getting harder and harder to make good profits with spots because prices are going up and never come down.

                                                You'd have to be a paysite owner nowadays to make good profit on a topspot @ TheHun.

                                                  Also as a paysite owner you will get credit for joins from people who go join from the acutal site page and not though your affilate link.

                                                    I'm not sure what your point is but most sponsors use 90 day cookies nowadays so don't worry about getting credit

                                                              true, I'm not even gonna argue with you that a paysite isn't better to OWN yourself coz it is. Only when working with affiliates you have to keep in mind that it will only pay off when you hit bigger numbers coz the startup cost is pretty high
