Manwin Official Statement re acquisition of Brazzers

You compete with free by offering stuff they can't get for free.

Ok, he's a genius! Freeones can send a thousand uniques in a day.

true, so why is he even posting here? to troll, brag? he is bored? i dont get it.

I just read every post in this thread and this one stood out as the one worth commenting on. It is correct from the start to the end.

None of you can compete with free. There is no adapting to the current business model. There is free and there is not free. That's it. It just so happens that free holds all the traffic and dominates the search engines. If any of you had any real business sense at all you would understand that.

Very few will pay for something if they can get it for free or something close enough to it for free. Why would you? You could pay for a $29,950 car that is exactly what you want or you can take the free car that is very close to what you want, but it's free and you save $29,000. Which would you take? $29,950 vs $29.95 is relative. Free is free. Regardless of the market the vast majority of people who always choose free when it is an option.

The question was also raised about boys looking at porno. I started at the age of 13 looking at bra and panty ads in the paper. That was my porn until I found Playboy around 16 years of age. Now, a boy of any age can look at hardcore pornography for free, anytime day or night. There are no restrictions. Those who are running these sites are providing hardcore porno to minors, plain and simple. Then again, so is everyone with a free tour that is explicit.

There is but one way to do this, but you will never do it. Each and every one of you MUST boycott any company that does business with these sites. From hosting to billing to those who buy ads there. It will be painful but I assure you that however painful it will be, it's not going to hurt as much as you're going to hurt in two more years by doing nothing. Most of you will be out of business by then.

One good hosting company needs to stand up and declare NO to illegal tube sites, file hosting or any other site that falls under that category. Everyone then needs to leave their current company for that one. The other hosts will get the message and soon get on board. Support only those who support you in return. NO EXCEPTIONS. NO BROS. NO EXCUSES.

The same goes for your sponsors, web cams, 3rd part billers, companies like NATS and MPA3, everyone. Boycott EVERYONE who supports these sites. Only then will changes happen. Yes it will be painful, but not as painful as what is coming.

Of course this will never happen, but I have given you 1 solution. You have the power to resolve a lot of your own problems but are all afraid to act. No one wants to be the odd man out or the lone cowboy in this industry.

Good luck. Most of you won't be here in two more years.

Robbie, there are lots of affiliates that can send 1000 hits a day. Maybe they aren't sending to you, but they are out there.

Not that 1000 hits means shit anyway. It could be 1000 trash traffic hits, its sales that matter.

I can send you 1000 hits a day for about $4 does that make me a genius too ?

I know my strategy for our paysite business is simple. Affiliates are icing on the cake but to survive and be relevant in 2, 3, 5 years from now we have to be really good at buying and converting traffic. It's that simple. You have to control the traffic yourself. If you can do that well then you'll obviously be able to make affiliates happy and continue to get their traffic.

No, it is simple: YOU CAN'T COMPETE WITH FREE.

If that's the case, how do people in bottled water industry compete? Simple, they made public think they have a superior product, when the reality in most cases tap water is actually better quality but they marketed the exact thing people can get for free in a way that makes people want to buy it.

I know that it might be a bit tougher with porn, but I have a few ideas on how to make that happen...

that is the wrong analogy.

This is not a matter of tap water vs bottled water. This is bottled water for sale at 7-11 vs free bottled water, the same bottled water that is inside 7-11, being given away in the parking lot of 7-11.

You would not be able to compete with free bottled water if your business was selling bottled water. Especially if they made the free bottled water available everywhere you were selling your bottled water. You'd fail. It would only be a matter of time.
