    Has the hun's traffic dropped off?

    Everybody assumes that the hun's traffic is dying off.
    Most often, the alexa graphs are quoted.

    Those only show relative rankings of sites.
    The market could have become bigger. Therefore, it is not necessarily true that the hun's traffic has dropped.

    I haven't submitted in years. So how is the hun nowadays?

            tgps link to other sites...tubes have the content on their own site..thats a big Alexa advantage...but there is no question TGP traffic is down...its hard to compete traffic wise with sites that have full length movies for free...all the movie freeloaders hit the big tubes..
            i use Vacares...so should you

              it was that simple, no frills, '90's look' that helped make Hun
              when everyone else was pushing banner farms & pop up hell,
              he was offering "shit-free" clean gallery links

              he epitomises traffic is king, design is just design, i'll take a
              90's looking site with the Huns numbers over a 2009 design
              with a fraction of his bookmarks.. i'm sure the site itself
              is probably doing less these days, still a force nevertheless

                  I still like the simple design+the fact that he always used to list some special stuff.. I myself like surfing his site from time to time..

                    I would probably still like to have his traffic though.

                        You all seem to forget one important thing.... PROFIT

                        All stuff is driven by profit per hour of work and resources used formula.
                        The Hun probably has lesser servers bill compared to most fake tube sites (the ones that list 2 minutes videos like xfliq.com ). And not to mention that his server bill doesnt even approach what a a real tube with full scenes like sexmultiplex.com could burn.

                        Also his work is only reviewing galleries and billing for the banner ads and listing spots.

                        His tech needs are next to nothing since he probably runs the same TGP script that he ran in 2003.

                        So basically, The Hun's expenses are... 3 hours/day reviewing and making invoices, about $1k in servers (as much)... probably it's much less since he runs his own hosting company... and practically no programming/admin need.
                        Compare this to a tube site using 10 - 50 servers in different datacenters and burning several GBps of bw, and you will see that The Hun is still a very profitable business if accounted in profit vs resources and time used.

                          of course, thehun with 50% less traffic in three years from 2006 is still probably several times more profitable then biggest tube site. I was longtime advertiser with paid spots on his site and i have some idea about his numbers....

                          but the point is, where will be thehun in another three years, four years?
                          of course he is set for the rest of his life, but I can see his numbers going down really fast in a next years.

                                Well, I had an approved gallery about a week ago and traffic is about the same actually... just the twin girls I was promoting had a shitty tour, so it didn't convert even one sale, and i'm fully attributing it to the tour and not the hun's traffic.

                                    sextracker anyone? Sounding like people don't know the traffic of the hun in this thread..... ~1,7 million uniques per day at the moment. A tube site with 1,7 million uniques probably has a server bill of $20,000+ per month, thehun probably around $1,000.

                                    Even if thehun would lower his paid gallery spots to as little as $100 per (which wont happen) he would still make $2k per day just from them.

                                        Those day's are gone unless you have something really special to sell.

                                          Sales are great via banners (paid spots)

                                                        You need to make a transition while you got traffic still and go Tube.

                                                                  All stuff is driven by profit per hour of work and resources used formula.
                                                                  The Hun probably has lesser servers bill compared to most fake tube sites (the ones that list 2 minutes videos like xfliq.com ). And not to mention that his server bill doesnt even approach what a a real tube with full scenes like sexmultiplex.com could burn.

                                                                  Also his work is only reviewing galleries and billing for the banner ads and listing spots.

                                                                  His tech needs are next to nothing since he probably runs the same TGP script that he ran in 2003.

                                                                  So basically, The Hun's expenses are... 3 hours/day reviewing and making invoices, about $1k in servers (as much)... probably it's much less since he runs his own hosting company... and practically no programming/admin need.
                                                                  Compare this to a tube site using 10 - 50 servers in different datacenters and burning several GBps of bw, and you will see that The Hun is still a very profitable business if accounted in profit vs resources and time used.
                                                                  Lol, this is why I love GFY.

                                                                  You are assuming everything, but know nothing.

                                                                  I know you think you know, but it sounds to me like your assumptions are quite inaccurate.

                                                                      I think your right the freeloaders have gone to the tubes and the buyers go to tgp's. Tgp traffic does well for us now. When a couple of years ago pre tubes it didnt do well for us.

                                                                                          Approved or listed? Isn't there about a 3 month delay between approved and listed?

                                                                                          If it just got accepted then you won't see traffic for several more weeks.
