Sponsor #1: 3 sales this month, I used to do 160 sales a month with them. Then it went down to 60 a month, 30 a month, 15 a month, now I make between 3-5 sales a month with them.

Sponsor #2: ratio is 1:3875, and thats with Movie galleries on a niched foot fetish site. Highly targeted and video samples should mean awesome ratios, right?
Its not happening here.

Sponsor #3: ratio is 1:4225. This is who Im currently promoting the hell out of with pumping out galleries and freesites and avs sites promoting them everyday. And well...thats my ratio.

Sponsor #4: ratio is 0:2,135 thats from a recent hun listing. The hun traffic used to get me 1:800 a year ago.

Sponsor #5: I did some double-niched avs sites (double-niched like interracial anal, chubby blondes, etc) and spent hours building tours and members areas, cutting up movie clips, and over $100 on new content and another hundred on traffic. Promoted them and the tours got over 10k unique visitors.
they made 2 sales and I made $38. so lost money on them, and my time, lol.

Sponsor #6: Non nude sponsor with all traffic coming from google adwords:
0:1690, Ive spent $84 on the SE traffic and made nothing back.

Yeah I know when you make a tour or do a new sponsor it takes time, but Ive really spread myself out more than ever with the pages I did this year, so im trying to cover a lot of bases.

I have to be honest, I havent worked this hard in my life to keep pumping out site tours, and galleries and freesites and BYOTs, and updating sites. Its like a solid 8 hours a day for a couple of months now. And im not seeing shit, income keeps going down

its either you are beeing shaved (change sponsors) or your traffic is oversaturated

polish_aristocrat · 03-26-2006, 02:46 PM

hmm... too much free content all over the world.

KRL · 03-26-2006, 02:59 PM

There's enough free content on the Net now to keep boners on every guy on the planet for the next thousand years.

And very few people are original and innovative in their content choice, nor understand precision marketing to close the surfers. Most webmasters just follow the crowd and think hey I can just do what that guy's doing and be rich too.

If you promote us at all (PimpRoll or Adult Elite), send me an ICQ with a recent sample if you want, and I'll give you some tips/advice that might help convert better.

I've NEVER made so much fucking money as this month. In my opinion, the sky isn't falling AT ALL.

gornyhuy · 03-27-2006, 08:27 AM

My traffic is way down because I haven't done jack shit to build it up over the past year, but my ratios are pretty much the same as ever and my rebills keep on cranking.
