what about all that crap on the first pages in google after last update? you think all that warez and free tubes that are now on top arent hurting sales? i dont think there will be some boom up in sales, at least not if google will keep pushing warez and stolen content sites

cosis · 10-19-2011, 09:41 PM

These threads always crack me up. Ask 1000 people, "are you experiencing X" and obviously a certain number of people are bound to respond in the affirmative. Of course, it proves nothing, yields no actionable information and really means nothing. It's always just an attempt by one person to alleviate his own concerns and anxiety about what he believes he is observing with his own sales, which of course are entirely unique to him. If everyone had the exact same site, same design, same text, same content, same links, same servers, same load times, same SE traffic for the same phrases, and same sponsors etc.. etc.. etc.. then it might be meaningful to ask what others are experiencing. Otherwise, its really just an exercise in self denial... like a woman asking if she looks fat in a dress because she already knows the answer.

There are less and less sales in porn. That is going on for years. In general, porn industry is being cannibalistic and devaluated by its own players. New technologies, less sales, more free content. That is the trend in porn.

That has nothing to do with "this month"...

Even since 1998, people have been posting threads on forums about "slow sales this week", or "slow sales this month" or "slow sales today". That part of the equation has NEVER changed. The changes you are talking about aren't changes that are felt in 2 weeks. They happened over a span of many years.

You might be right. But...

In the period 2005-2008 I had steady sales. Every day was arround the same average. Offcourse there were good days and bad days, but in the end I had every month about the same sales. Since 2nd half of 2008 things changed. My sales dropped, but I had about the same sales each day. May 2010 started very good (could have been a record month) but in the 2nd half my sales dropped. I made a thread and there were a whole lot of webmasters who saw the same. In 2 weeks I made about 10% of the month while in the first half it was 90%. That sounds strange but it is the truth. And I was not the only one.

Now I see about the same. Very good start of October and arround the 12th/13th I almost got no sales anymore. It's like there's nobody out there anymore. I checked my traffiic and all was normal. I made again a thread and I got replies from several webmasters who see the same thing! I am not the biggest webmaster out there but I make some good sales each and every day and at the moment that the sales are cut down (not for one day but for about 10 days) and there are other webmasters who see the same thing than this is really remarkable.

Horny Joe · 10-20-2011, 10:14 AM

September was bad and october looks to be worse. Huge changes needs to be done

SwirlsGirl · 10-20-2011, 10:27 AM

getting denials today and past few days with no notifications what so ever....just happen to login to admin and see form submissions but no denial reasons or denial emails, anyone else experience the same?

Just to be clear there have been some denial emails but there have been several denials where there have been no emails sent so do they cherry pic the denial emails or are we suppose to get every denial email

Kind of disturbing to have to log in to admin to find out there are denials that have happened today

roganoli · 10-20-2011, 10:34 AM

Good sales in my new porn site. Excited with this new project!

Affiliates cannot see denials but do you see the same trend as that sales are down since Oct. 12/13?

Just waking up for me now, though I've been doing a lot of tinkering on my site, so it's hard to know if the sales would have happened anyway or if it's due to the design changes (or Google Panda or Other Random reason)

NetHorse · 10-21-2011, 02:39 PM

Better than last month, but definitely down from a year ago.

emill · 10-21-2011, 03:02 PM

patavax · 10-22-2011, 12:26 PM

It's a fact: I had my worst week since I am a full time webmaster... Thursday sales went up but yesterday and today it is very sparse again... My traffic is up. I don't understand.

Waiter · 10-22-2011, 12:36 PM

One of my sponsors told me today that for almost every transaction (sale) he has he gets a message (Denial E-mail) that the customer was declined due to Transaction Denied by Bank and just 1 minute later the customer gets approved as he can sign up and can buy his membership. So he 1st gets denied and then gets approved by the same processor (so not by the back up). WTF?

An internal cascade from bank to bank within the processor to improve sales BEFORE having to cascade with a different processor? SMART! They're always on top of their game and one step ahead. Love those guys and worth every penny

Would the processors "backup" cascade require an additional form submission to get the approval after the first decline

Or would the approval be granted with one single form submission showing up in admin?

I am thinking if I get 1 decline email, and then 1 new subscription, that would require 2 form submissions

This

Search pretty much any program / adult terms and you will find a huge amount of torrents / file sharing links. It is almost impossible to find an actual adult site like that.

Jakez · 10-22-2011, 04:52 PM

I'm pretty sure everyone on the planet knows about tubes by now, those who are still buying memberships don't like the recycled garbage that's on tubes.
