Paysite Owners: How Was 2014 For You?

The data work that I got through each Jan is an amazing pain in the ass.

I know the feeling and dread it but at the same time love it because I can work out new ideas pinpoint issues and fix them etc.

.

Month over month growth.
Protect your content. Even if it is a losing battle.
Streaming only. Surfers do not care. They're trained now by Netflix, etc.
Kill fraud immediately. Many reasons here.
Keep your brand strong any way you can.
Products that are just run of the mill failed or fail.
You can't stay in the box anymore. Get out of it.
Build traffic internally.
The sky did not fall if you have a brand, it just a little more challenging to grow.

.

its the fight.... keep going, be more strategic, be more stronger with hard times. Santalatina.com making more cash every year.

Pretty static and steady with good ratios. Really I just need more traffic, but that's always gonna be the problem with micro niche

My stuffs not so micro, but the same story here. Ratios are good, customer retention is good. Just need to shove more in the top of the pipeline!

Cam site here: I can compare 2014 with 2013 regarding sales and ongoing stuff, can't complain and can't celebrate, things kept so stable I nearly fall asleep.

Got 7 sales. So far so good.

This past month 11/14 we had more new sales then any month since 2007. This includes months with the extra day. Overall 2014 was up as well.

Post of the fucking year here. Seriously, bravo on all points.

Can i ask what you did to get it?
I can't even compare 2007 with 2014, not even close
We work much much harder, and spend way more on production than before and still making less than 2007.
I even have a site that have daily updates with exclusive content...
In 2007 4 updates per month was more than enouf to make great $.

2007 was the 'golden age' of online porn. Maybe the waning days but still great. OH how I WISH I had started my crazy business just five years earlier. LOL

Bukkake had another strong year

For sure.

1. I wasn't being facetious when I said that seeric nailed all his points. He did, those are most of the recipe we use, all great tips.

2. What I believe he also implied but didn't say directly is you need to make killer content in a niche that will sell.

3. If you have the eye balls and produce 100 naked pics of a hot girl or guy and 99 of them are free, there are more then enough people who will pay good money for the 100th pic. Pick a good niche and don't sell that 100th pic too cheap. Protect it as well, as seeric said.

4. I believe that the consumers that are buying porn are the folks that don't give a flying fuck about $30-$40. I like Scotch, in this market make Macallan 30 Sherry Wood, not Cutty Sark. There is a huge market for free cutty sark, but there are plenty of people that would rather buy the good stuff then search for the cheap stuff. Find those folks.

5. Relationships - built them with the tubes, review sites, your vendors your customers and your competitors. Ask how you can be involved with them.

6. Customer Service. Here is a shocker, don't rip your customers off. Exceed their expectations and try to keep them around.

7. Social - twitter, facebook (kinda), Tumblr and reddit. But don't just post BS, interact. It is more of a grind then it used to be but the effort has a nice shelf life.

8. Work with the people in your content niche, they are your competition, but your best friends as well. Members area presence trades and content trades work well.

Hope that helps.

Can you give me an example of "Macallan 30 Sherry Wood" porn ?
