xxxjay · 04-20-2009, 08:22 PM

Would you / do you every pay for porn online?

A. No, all porn is free! (60%)
B. Yes, I will spend money on porn if it is good. (28%)
C. No, I?ve been ripped off too many times. (12%)

Only 28% would pay, pretty fuckin' bad.

Ozarkz · 04-20-2009, 08:26 PM

28% That's actually pretty good.

munki · 04-20-2009, 08:58 PM

I'm hoping everyone was to busy with their cc out ready to fap, to click on the poll... but I'm afraid that might be too much to hope for...

WTF is a Surfer Metality Poll?

D Ghost · 04-20-2009, 09:05 PM

How many people gave an answer, do you need a standard safe sample of around 3000 people or so? to reach a 3% margin of error?

Jay I am not saying your poll has no merit, because it definitely does, just saying there may be some bias based on what site you gave the poll, etc. I am just genuinely curios...

oops sorry for double post...

woj · 04-20-2009, 09:07 PM

what site was it done on? obviously results will be WAY different if it was on a tube site vs a review site for example...

I would of worded the poll differently for one. Answer A is worded very poorly and does not provide you with much insight. Answer B is also a bit skewed, and so is C.

Such a poll really should have more questions, and not leading ones either. Example do people think porn should be free? Do they still feel it should be free if they know it costs small companies lots of money to make it? Do they think porn sites make to much money, why? How were they ripped off, what do they fear, are they aware of safe throw away options?

D Ghost · 04-20-2009, 09:16 PM

Also, i think what some people would call getting "ripped off" is not really what getting "ripped off" is...

JD · 04-20-2009, 09:30 PM

yeah the questions need a bit of re-wording.

D Ghost · 04-20-2009, 09:34 PM

Jay, how many weeks do you plan on running the poll, or no real time limit?

LeRoy · 04-20-2009, 09:45 PM

I'd email the 12% back and ask them which site ripped em off ?

CarlosTheGaucho · 04-21-2009, 03:33 AM

LOL

I thought it will be a heavy metal poll

$5 submissions · 04-21-2009, 03:39 AM

I'm sure the recession (and the growth of user forums/tubes/torrents ) is pushing many more people into the "A" category

28% is actually not bad at all I would say, specially since you worded the poll pretty badly.

How many people voted so far and what is the source? I mean this is pretty worthless without any additional info

seeandsee · 04-21-2009, 03:52 AM

internet is for free

I don't want to give the source just yet because I don't want a bunch of webmasters skewing the results. I will also fix the bad grammer. It was the results of too much Iron Maiden as a kid.

cherrylula · 04-21-2009, 02:44 PM

28% is good. Ever done any sales in mainstream? non-internet.

It is hard to make a comparison, but I don't think that is too bad of a rate considering many factors. For example, pass out flyers for oil change coupons in a parking lot. I bet you don't even get that high of a percentage of people who actually bite...

Adult is still very, very lucrative it seems. You just can't sell them bullshit sites with junk content.

Porn surfers are smarter than ever by tasting the free porn that is out there. In mainstream, I find it is easier to sell someone a more expensive quality product than it is to sell them low priced junk. Porn doesn't seem much different, and nobody likes to be ripped off.

Nice results.

PornMD · 04-21-2009, 02:45 PM

60% Steel
28% Iron
12% Aluminum

No need to give the url, only the type of traffic would make sense already imo.

And yeah I can read your frustration in that poll

$5 submissions · 04-22-2009, 03:49 AM

I wonder how many of the 28% will actually spend cuz 28% is actually a nice high %.
