80% (or so) of all sales are US, why? - GoFuckYourself.com

biskoppen · 05-12-2008, 02:22 AM

80% of our sales are american, and next to that a huge part of the rest are from the UK

These numbers doesn't match up with actual number of money strong citizens in the world...
The US is facing the worst economy crisis, but still they manage to be the 80% which is the same numbers we saw before "crisis".

Of the remaining 20% of sales I'd say that 50% are of from the UK - and this seems fucked up compared to the number of wanking males in the rest of Europe

Could this be a huge scrubbing issue?

thaifan99 · 05-12-2008, 02:49 AM

where is your traffic coming from - should give you the answer.

How are you search engine listings in each language?

polish_aristocrat · 05-12-2008, 03:04 AM

I guess that's because credit cards are much more wide-spread in the US than eg. in most of Europe

edit: and yeah scrubbing must play a huge role too
what is the current scrub % usually at the processors?

Americans do not have the leisure time of other countries, and are sexually repressed. Very few American males have active sex lives away from their hand. That coupled with familiarity with credit cards makes it easy to see why they spend the most.

kane · 05-12-2008, 03:39 AM

I have heard that many countries outside the US have trouble using their credit cards to access US based websites (or at least sites that have their processing in the US) because of scrubbing. I would also imagine that much of it is a language barrier issue. If you have a site in English mostly people that join will be native English speakers.

Most porn surfers in America are too fat and ugly to get themselves a girlfriend. So they whip out the Credit Card and beat the old love stick into submission.

Fat and Ugly?

Even "handsome" guys in America have issues getting laid purely off charm. Guys in Eastern Europe, Asia, etc aren't exactly Calvin Klein models. It's a different culture in relation to sexuality and options to actually meet and fuck girls. Americans have a totally different outlook about availability of it, and how that relates to their life and recreation. Thank God for it too, since the majority of people in this business would not have an income otherwise.

The ugliest girl in America has 10x the mating options as girls in any other country.

I dont believe that. Whenever i see mardi gras on tv etc i see shiploads of sexually frustrated people, because of the extreme sex censorship and the extremely high drinking age (21). I bet it's about 10 times easier to get laid in the US then it is here.

Yeah. Good thing they smell better than the ones in Europe.

The web is a truly GLOBAL medium. Take a look at visitor stats. There are probaby some countries on there that you may not even have heard of!

Some countries are deemed to be higher risk than others. If you know which countries your (credit card) processor scrubs, you can and should send surfers to a an international tour/join version of your site (s) using
our hosted http://www.webpinaccess.com/?layout=blank template.

Select Brazil, Russia, India, China etc to see what surfers from there will see

And don't worry, the only people hogging your bandwidth will be paying ones

Since the payouts available from such billing is not suited to monthly subscriptions, simply give them less time.

If you have compelling content, the chances are good that the surfer will come back again and pay you this way - not least since you gave him the option to commit to a subscription in the first place.

Useful EXTRA money...

I can't believe Canada isn't on that list. I think we all know how shady they are.

If you think getting laid is solely related to looks, you're sadly mistaken. And yes, I've spent a considerable amount of time in the states. For any US male who has traveled to other countries, American girls are known overall as the most physically unattractive females in the world. Well, maybe second to British girls.

Are you from the U.S.A, and have you ever left it?

All of your points move towards the reasons Americans purchase so much porn, then you lost me at the end. If it's 10x harder to get laid in the Netherlands, wouldn't that percentage increase the amount of sexual purchases in the country proportionally? Or is the sex drive/kink factor lower in the Netherlands? Or are they still purchasing more in brink and mortar locations? Or would you say that customers from the Netherlands join adult sites at the same % or more as Americans?

Mardi Gras is 1x a year (3 day) festival comprising a very small portion of the US, and more a regional celebration . Unless you count all the 'Mardi Gras' sales at the malls or 'Mardi Gras' menus at TGI Fridays or Chilli's restaurants. Never confuse Mardi Gras with actual fun events like Carnival in Brazil or Songkran in Thailand. Those are the definition of fun. Though interesting that Mardi Gras would make it on the news in the Netherlands.

Been to Carnaval and Spring Break. Both are great for getting laid. Have to do Mardi Graas but have heard good things.
