    Instead of complaining about how hard it is now, everyone should be grateful they had it so easy for so long
    In 2004 we were spending $1,000s of a week shooting content. Don't think the business is just what you do.

      I agree and know "adult" is much, much bigger than paysites. Sex toys alone are probably bigger these days.
      Porn industry was always built on a basis of recorded porn, either images or video or both. It's the mainstay of the industry. That's the same in 1994, 2004 and today. The difference is today we give it away in huge amounts instead of selling it. 500,000 per day watching free tube videos isn't a small part of the business. Imagine selling to an audience that large at the ratios we used to enjoy.

        Paul’s ignore list is getting longer. Unfortunately for him its all free listings. He could try to sell the top 15 spots on his ignore list.

        Anyway....Soon he will be talking to himself again.

          than he will finally have someone who agrees with him.

          I really have never seen a bigger ignorant - but if it makes him happy - who gives a flying fuck what Paul thinks?

            but it came as it came.

            i am pretty sure that a tube with 10 new free videos from real amateurs each day instead 1000 updates that nobody will ever see, would still do better as any paysite.

            "free" brings simply more people - and they do not come with the Intension to buy anything. this is why professional marketers are in charge at this point.

            tell me what is complicated to optimize a doorway page for the key brazzers or mydirty hobby or a models name and if a users comes through a search enginge with this key buys ?

            every grandmother can do that - and every grandmother will get a little portion of the 50.000 that are searching it every day, because 10.000 competitors do the same.

            the tubes are receiving a few 100 million of users every day - not a few 100 million buyers but within this number are a few million potential buyers for ANY existing product.

            you will not really want to tell me that this market is equal or smaller than selling porn.
            Selling porn is a tiny fraction compared to ads. Anyone with a brain will admit and realize this point.

            It's always better to be the TV Network than the hit TV show, or the Hollywood agent with 50 clients taking 20% from each vs. the actor making $20 million per picture.

              correct - but my point was that there WOULD be still MORE for pornsites within that big market place if they would simply have the options for selling it the way mediabuyers need it. possibly that 1% instead on 0,01% of bought ads would point to pornsites and make some sales and that would be HUGE money.

                Adult content is a commodity.

                  Not everyone can be the TV network, more people have to be the TV show to make the network possible. Same with an agent.

                  The debate is over does selling porn makes more money than advertising on free porn sites. If it did PH wouldn't sell an ad free option, they would make more money keeping people on the free version. Apps that are downloaded for free, wouldn't have a paid ad free option.

                  Will the 500,000 viewers pay for porn? No and no one is expecting them to. Will they pay for gas, cigarettes, alcohol, cars, etc? Yes, but none of those advertise on porn sites despite how genius the professional marketers are the surfer is always in control. If that's all it took, ratios would be higher than they are and prices as well.

                  Will they pay for porn? You can't claim only free porn will get so many, then claim it's the power of professional marketers to make them buy what's given away for free.

                    Precisely. A commodity that would make more money if it were sold and not given away for free.

                      Today the cost of BW and hosting makes it possible to give away recorded porn to attract billions of viewers, to sell to a tiny fraction. No matter how good the professional marketers claim to be.

                      If we make more money from advertising, we would have been giving porn away before BW dropped. Who cares about the cost of BW, if advertising is more profitable!!!!

                                So why aren't all the copycat tubes making money?

                                Before then it was the copycat paysites that failed.

                                To be a success you have to find 100,000 videos for a good tube. You have to have the skills set to find good models, film them properly, fund the production, then launch a site.

                                Of course it does depend what is a persons idea of making money.
