As an industry we slit our own throats. People blame free sites and free content as the death of our business. Paysite members rip, distribute and share our members area content making our pay content, free content. It sux.

Bigger companies get stronger because they can spend the money to buy sites & programs. Doesn?t it bother you to know that, if you want to keep growing you have to buy out sites and programs? Even those will dry up, then you buy more.. Always trying to keep your numbers at some level.

As ratios get worse, you have to buy and drop money to just stay at the same level. To grow you either found your one niched site that rocks, or figured out a slick way to market your new products.

Every niche, ever site, fights for the same bubble of traffic and sales.


If you notice, almost every company is going automated, dropping staff and expenses (adverts, trade shows, etc), they bring in cheaper, better working contract staff.. So for me to grow 30% this year, I gota work some magic and spend a good amount of money to assist me. Or? I can easily cut 30% of my expenses. Many programs working a 10% profit margin, people are starting to find out that increasing 10% costs a ton of money, but getting rid of 10% of expenses is better money.
