Sheri Santiago · 04-23-2004, 09:48 PM

I haven't noticed it yet across all my sites, although I did notice a slowdown with the more amateur-girl-type sites...

jojojo · 04-23-2004, 09:48 PM

Here come the wave of replies countering this arguement

happens every year

twistyneck · 04-23-2004, 09:48 PM

Thomas1007 · 04-23-2004, 09:51 PM

wtf is a summer slowdown?

Bassab · 04-23-2004, 10:14 PM

I thought Oracle wasnt in the game but I think you guys arent...

The summer slowdown is a true phenomenon in porn and is there till cold hits us back...if you think otherwise than you havent been in this biz for long.

$am

BradM · 04-23-2004, 10:14 PM

Well I haven't noticed it yet.

It is happening everywhere, but its time to do some spring clearning and clean up those folders on your harddrive marked project, and weed out your wants and don't wants..

MetaMan · 04-24-2004, 12:41 AM

it slows down because all the people that approve your galleries go on vacation.

This is partially true. If your traffic solely comes from galleries it will sink.

There's less competition in other areas during the summer because webmasters get lazy. The same goes for Christmas and spring break.

TaDoW · 04-24-2004, 12:48 AM

Just today, in fact, I was sitting down, ready to whip out my credit card and start stroking my cock to teen kelly and instead I went outside in the sun and stroked my cock on a girl sunbathing.

RicardoB · 04-24-2004, 01:05 AM

Yep it's definately here my PC has slown down quite a lot lately

And that lasts all summer you say?

Lol, lets hope your the last one for the season....and lets hope it was a girl sunbathing.

sumz · 04-24-2004, 01:24 AM

At least I have not noticed anything, having my best week for long time.

zzgundamnzz · 04-24-2004, 01:54 AM

If you're getting low sales change your niche

Sunny Beaches, Foreign Stuff sells better for me during the summer...

Dveron · 04-24-2004, 01:59 AM

Gather around my children for the great Oracle Porn going out of business sale!

Ironhorse · 04-24-2004, 02:00 AM

If your business is day to day, summer slowdown starts in january for some, but the real thing won't hit until June, May is usually a good month but with the war and crappy economy, people panic everytime there's a big bomb..

Furious_Male · 04-24-2004, 10:25 AM

I dont believe in summer slow downs. Sure nice hot weekend days across the states may result in lower US traffic and a slight decline in sales but late at nite when the drunks come home they still want porn.

I was always under the assumption that the phrase "Summer Slow Down" was coined by shaving sponsors looking for excuses to tell affiliates when they bitch about poor sales.

Hell if everyone believed in the summer slow down program owners could make a fortune putting the shave o meter on high and blaming it on that. No one would know the difference.

I like the part about shaving sponsors .

I do not believe in a summer slow down.

SykkBoy · 04-24-2004, 11:48 AM

Fight the summer slow down. Grab a couple good recurring sponsors ;-)

Like Evil Genius Cash, Only two sites strong, but the sites convert and retain and you'll want a couple recurring checks during the summer slowdown ;-)

Paparazzi · 04-24-2004, 11:59 AM

riosluts · 04-24-2004, 12:01 PM

Doctor Dre · 04-24-2004, 12:08 PM

There isn't no permanent slowdown like summer. That is after school during SUMMER . It's probably been slow in the past days because of the play offs and the NFL draft. All coutch potatoes are watching tv

TheDoc · 04-24-2004, 02:02 PM

Summer slow down wont start for another couple of months anyway.

And the slow down is from college kids leaving the dorms and going home to no Internet or slow Internet. The prime join hours move a little bit too, people start to join a little later in the day.

The summer slow down is mostly crap, effects traffic more than joins. Traffic totals normally see the drop but paysites normally don't. I think the summer just removes the non paying porn freaks.

GSpotShawn · 04-24-2004, 02:04 PM

Definition of summer slowdown:

When the weather gets nicer webmasters put their playtime before their work time and work less.
