    No matter how much traffic a site can get. People are no longer buying mediocre because they landed on your site.

    If they were, we would all be a lot richer.

    Experienced people know that while getting traffic is important the difference in ratios between what can be achieved with Content like my crap and Met-Art level are poles apart. The hard part is affording to buy or being able to create what the top tier of professional producers ask for.

    This is the same in all fields and not exclusive to porn. Prime Aberdeen Angus Burgers vs Macdonalds, Rolls Royce vs Ford, etc.

    No one sends traffic to a site that doesn't convert. Redwhiteandblue gets 1-600, that's good. Never assume everyone can get 1-600 on any old site with any old site. Affiliates need to feed in more than 600 to their sites or promo content to send 600 people. And there's the clue Content is King.

    How does an affiliate attract a surfer to click on a link? With average promo or the best, he can manage?

    How does he keep surfers attention? With average promo or the best, he can manage?

    How does he convert surfers? With average or the best, he can manage?

    All through the process surfers are free to leave, you're not herding sheep, you're herding cats and the best way to herd cats, is offer them a juicy fish they want. Then they will go where you want them to go.

    And never ever underestimate the power of satisfied return customers. They're gold.

      If you want to keep arguing just so that you can feel better about yourself and feel right - go ahead.

      But i don't lie when i say that i sell below average content that can be found on the net for free.
      Traffic and marketing is king.

        Then you are a god amongst men and no one should try to copy you. My comments are for us mere mortals.

        Oh holy one, please show us your below average content ads, landing pages and sites so we can come and worship at your feet. You have no fear of us mere mortals competing with such a god.

              We're an old company with many affiliates, much less active than in the old days but still substantial.

              I have not much doubt about GE generating this with just his partner since he is not the only one doing it. Just because you don't know about them doesn't mean they are not out there. Making money flying under the radar selling a mediocre product that's just really well packaged and presented.

              carry on

                Paul, you know I really do like you, and I am still pulling for your GFY HOF induction (see sig) but really:

                You have never had success selling memberships, you had reasonable success selling content.


                Allow me to answer all of your questions to GE

                What are your sites?

                None of your business.

                Where do you get your traffic?

                None of your business.

                Why do you have a partner?

                None of your business.


                Google Expert, I hope to meet you one day (If I haven't already) maybe we can do some mutually beneficial business, if not that's OK too, I like to talk to intelligent people.

                  If he was normal for people driving traffic. The business wouldn't be running down. You certainly can't do it as you're an employee.

                      It started to be my business when he posted in a thread I started about Starting a new business successfully.

                      If he was the norm, or even amongst top 10% of people. He wouldn't be showing those numbers. If he's extra exceptional then he can do those figures with an average site, content, product. What the rest of us can't do is try to match him.

                      You've been at it a long time, can you do those figures or even have a clue how he does selling memberships with nothing great?

                      I'm saying GE is the exception of the best. Because if these were achievable by mere mortals. Porn would be flourishing.

                        Interesting how some accept what people they don't know say and never bother to check the claims. Doing the maths on those claims was interesting.

                          Who says he's normal? Just saying I don't doubt numbers liken this perse since there are more like him.

                          And lol at the employee card ;)

                            I'm not exceptional. I'm not even out of the ordinary. What i'm kind of decent at is generating traffic - and this is what always brought me money.

                            I used to be a regular affiliate for years, but then I got tired of getting fucked over by programs and by companies going out of business and not paying, so i decided to create my own paysites.

                            I didn't know anything about starting or running paysites. I had zero experience in billing, i still don't know any programming or design. I hire people to do all the work for me.

                            I basically copy what other people do in this business. That's what always worked for me - you find a successful business model and copy it, making improvements along the way.

                            Reading all your threads - you're always fixated on negativity, with your way of thinking you are set out for a failure from the start. You are sure that everyone around you are either exceptional and out of the norm or that something is over-complicated and impossible to achieve.

                            I don't know why you constantly create your preaching threads without having anything to show for yourself. You constantly make points that you can't back up, people tell you that you are wrong, but you don't listen and continue to post/recycle your drivel.

                                Yes, I can and do, do those kinds of numbers.

                                I have no clue how he does them.
