summer slow down is an urban legend .

i never experienced a slow down in summer yet alone in spring ( its still spring) .

if your sales are low time to change sponsors , last summer i used to make 150$ a day with bangbros with a single gallery posted per day .



damn why do i have to answer the summer slodown shit every year since 1998?

I notice a bit of slowdown in the summer sometimes.. but that could be because i work less then.

urban legend my ass. more people outside, children home much of the time, less time in front of the computer, less traffic, holidays..............all of this leads to a slowdown for most adult webmasters. if you are the exception consider yourself lucky, but don't call it an urban legend.

There is no such thing. Only bad promotion.

i am not an exception, people need porn , they are addicted to it and wether its sunny or raining they will come at night to get their daily dose of ass.

only the people who don't have a clue blame it on the summer.

i experience slowdowns but it has nothing to do with the weather.
why do a site sell 10 memberships a day in july and only 3 a day in december ? go figure , but it has nothing to do with the sunshine , there is just no exact science about the surfers purchasing habits

summer slowdown might account for less traffic but i don't think you can blame shitty ratios on it.

If there is no such thing as the summer slowdown, why is it that advertisers in both the adult and gaming industries increase their advertising spending by over 200% strictly during the summer months?

Mmm.. Thought so.

I use "summer slowdown" to tweak marketing techniques, so I generally don't see that much of a slump during the summer months and when fall hits, I see a surge and definite growth but only because I've improved upon what I'm doing. Work smarter.

Theres no such thing as a "summer slowdown".
The market CHANGES in the summer months, but I wouldnt say its any slower. Marketing techniques have to change along with other things. But the money is still there for those who can adapt to the changing seasons.
