Paysite owners - Have you ever calculated this?
 

Have you ever worked out your site(s) average monthly costs per member?

1) Average monthly bandwidth usage per member (average bandwidth used divided my average number of members)

2) Average monthly content costs per member (average cost of content updates (in a month) divided by average number of members (in a month))

I did it, and thought it's an interesting way of looking at your members. Economies of scale are amazing.

Didnt you do that BEFORE starting your paysite?? :(

Nope. I never worried about how much members would cost me to maintain, and I was right because they don't cost much at all when you break it down on a per member basis.

I never bothered doing this until now.

I think you have to choose a good content provider.

Do I know someone? hmmm... :1orglaugh

Suprisingly they dont actually cost that much once you have them....getting them is the hard bit :winkwink:

Economies of scale rocks!

once you have a member they cost jack shit. very obvious.

Maybe you should pay your members instead of them paying you?

why?

Less chargebacks?

Our biggest cost is advertising not bandwidth, then its trying to hold onto them once you have them !

So BB what are your numbers? :Graucho
