    Business Is the porn industry growing or shrinking over the last 5 years?

    No one with any brains can claim the industry makes more than it did pre 2006, so is it making more or less money the last 6 years?

    It's pointless to make claims based on personal incomes because without proof they mean nothing. Even the growth of domains could mean existing domains not doing enough.

    Base it on the price of clicks to porn sites, the number of advertisers bidding for porn traffic and the price they pay, the prices for content, quantity of content, price for premium names, design prices, forum traffic, etc.

    Anything but the inane "We are making loads more money because I say so."

    I'm no expert of how to gauge this Paul style since you have so many rules, but im sure the industry makes more money than ever... just the tubes and actual talent making most of it now... suitcase pimps, content providers and affiliates becoming increasingly obsolete.

    Just my opinion tho. I dont check that stuff. That ain't my lane anymore. However, most of my social media marketing clients are straight up talent/models with no middlemen, and those are the things we've discussed.

      Shrinking. Real porn that is. Now the iphone crowd has all became directors. For the people who can afford to produce their own real content it’s still extremely profitable. Funny how I ended up being one of the last ones standing.

          business in the porn industry for paul means to sell videos and nothing else.
          for him the internet is for porn and only HIS porn.

          if you take as an example livecams (and nobody will doubt that they are part of the porn industry) I can already see 10-20 new BIG portals alone in the past 5 years.

          but it is senseless to explain the old fart how money is made today - he will never get it.

            It's simple, social media removed the middle men.. Reddit for example is full of models selling direct to consumers and needing no website of their own to do it.

                to define if a biz is increasing or decreasing you always have to see the whole pot and not just one perspective.

                when drones delivering the goods and replace a human delivery it does not mean that the biz itself is gone - it is just the delivery what is outdated.

                imagine: if facebook would charge 5 dollar per month - how much users would they have? let´s assume they would have 0,01% it would be still a lot but not even a fraction fraction of the 60 billion they make with something that is completely free.

                even a huge porn-membersite with 50.000 paying members a 10.-- US per month (and there are not many of this size or bigger) would not make more than 6 million in annual revenue. this is around 0.7% of what mindgeek alone makes.

                if you see that mindgeek have less than 10% market share in the complete advertising and affiliate market in adult worldwide you see the the whole pot is damned big but still only 4 % of the complete online advertising market wich makes around 300 THOUSAND MILLION in annual revenue.

                the times paul can remember have been the times when the complete adult industry had a total revenue of less than 1 billion worldwide.

                          Look at what's being promoted on the biggest sites and you'll have a rough idea of where the money is currently. For some time now, that has been cams and dating sites. Lots more money in that than in paysites.

                          I also see a lot of sex toys and adult video games advertised on those sites.

                          After that, I'd go so far as to say virus infection attempts are what advertisers are willing to spend money on

                            sure and not only this - there is MUCH MORE concept in it as you can see on the first view.

                            I also see a lot of sex toys and adult video games advertised on those sites.
                            not to forget enhancement, sex-holidays, gaming, gambling and even legal cannabis products are doing great.

                            After that, I'd go so far as to say virus infection attempts are what advertisers are willing to spend money on
                            of course - at least they try it again and again to run their "tech support offers" on every network they can find.

                                        Agreed for those left standing they pick up from the failures. Until it's their turn to fail. We've all seen big companies go down.

                                          Yeah, but try uploading some of that content you're sitting on and let us know how that worked out for you.

                                            It's pointless to make claims based on personal incomes because without proof they mean nothing. Even the growth of domains could mean existing domains not doing enough.

                                            Base it on the price of clicks to porn sites, the number of advertisers bidding for porn traffic and the price they pay, the prices for content, quantity of content, price for premium names, design prices, forum traffic, etc.

                                            Anything but the inane "We are making loads more money because I say so."

                                            This is NOT comparing 2019 to 2006, just trends for the given years. Although the report provides numbers for revenue, it does state, "Average industry profit margins have remained low, ..."

                                              Which illustrates your knowledge of the industry.

                                              All models can produce is low quality content. Good content requires good camera, good lighting, good sound, skilled cameraman and good partners to perform with. Is that no longer profitable for many to shoot or has the market done a 180 degree turn and changed what it demands?

                                                I also see a lot of sex toys and adult video games advertised on those sites.

                                                After that, I'd go so far as to say virus infection attempts are what advertisers are willing to spend money on
                                                Today there is more money in cams and dating sites, but that doesn't answer my question.

                                                Also is the dating business really porn?

                                                If it is the best way to make money off a porn tube I see very few advertising on them. Certainly not the big ones.

                                                      as the big companies aren´t in the US this numbers seems to be more or less correct - assuming that a big part of the revenue is not declared as "adult revenue".

                                                      "Average industry profit margins have remained low, ..."
                                                      this indicates that ad revenues are not included.
                                                      industry profits for B2C sales have been always quite low.

                                                      but in fact it only looks at the companies based in US. alone mindgeek have a higher revenue than the total 618 million they are talking here. maybe 5-6% of the worldwide online adult revenues are made from US based companies.


                                                      unfortunately paul doesn't find the dividing line between online and offline here. of course there are no more CDs sold today and of course the paid membership model lost a lot and of course that has a lot to do with the tubes.

                                                      the total world market in 2007 was 20 billion sales (included video sales and rentals, Internet sales, cable, pay-perview, phone sex, exotic dance clubs, magazines, and novelty stores) from this 20 billion 4 billion came from so called copyable media (videos, pictures) the other 16 billion can not be copied because they are based on hardware or human service.

                                                      even when the tubes would take 50% of this 4 billion it is a joke in compare to the 14 billion that are made today with paid ads on free adult sites.

                                                      paul does not understand that an advertiser on adult sites have very other targets as to make just profit with the product he promotes. many of them do not even sell something but give something for free. advertisers for "win an iphone" do not sell anything to the user, they collect emails and the value of every single email is 10 times higher than the profit that can be realized selling a membership or a video.

                                                      monetizing a site with advertising will always make more money as it can be used to sell each kind of service or product. and this gives access not only to the 0,26% of the budget we got til now from a porn site user. we can go to 100% of his buying power.
                                                      and BECAUSE it is free we get this buying power from much more people than only the ones that are willing to pay for porn.

                                                      the difference to the "good old times" is only that we all have been focused to sell one specific product - but ALL THIS PRODUCTS have been sold via advertising (just paid on other models). so without advertising this good old times would not even exist.

                                                      so the old fart is promoting adblock plus on his facebook site and does not even know where he got his little money from in his "golden days".

                                                      that alone proves enough that he doesn't even know why he made money.

                                                        Old man, you are retired and know nothing about what makes money today.

                                                        There are a ton of amateur models that make a very good living off of making their own content. Selling their snap chat and other things like personal websites.

                                                        https://www.pornhub.com/pornstar/indigo-white

                                                        This girl has never worked with pros and she has 111 million views to her vids

                                                        https://indigowhitetv.com/store

                                                        a lot of models make good money with clips stores like many vids.

                                                        Most cam models that make any money invest in softbox lights, HD cams, and DSLR cameras.

                                                          because it is amateur.

                                                          the one and only thing i have to admit is that you mostly had cute models but the quality
                                                          and creativity was FAR lower than the quality I saw in this time from the so called amateurs.

                                                            There are a ton of amateur models that make a very good living off of making their own content. Selling their snap chat and other things like personal websites.

                                                            This girl has never worked with pros and she has 111 million views to her vids

                                                            a lot of models make good money with clips stores like many vids.

                                                            Most cam models that make any money invest in softbox lights, HD cams, and DSLR cameras.
                                                            but if paul does not like the truth it is not the truth.

                                                              Yup. It's not the 90's and the way people make money is so much different today.

                                                              I make most of my money off CB and my phone sex job. With promoting paysites, I get a few sales from time to time. The tubes changed the game.

Some of these girls are clearing $250k+ PER MONTH from all outlets (premium Snapchat / clip sites / PornHub's platforms, etc).

                                                                                            As others have noted, being so easy to produce and sell makes more competition for regular studios which may end up producing less big budget titles with storylines and big crews.

A percentage of the revenue of Premium is paid out to all the videos in Viewshare and each video gets a piece of the revenue based on the amount of views.
