    Eva just gave me the figures for Paul Markham Teens.

    You guys are always telling us how hard it is to run a paysite and make it profitable, especially a teen one. how you need to know the paysite game, traffic game, affiliate game and everything else. Well BS.

    Eva just gave me the figure of our earnings for Paul Markham Teens. Seems it's not so tough, without doing a lot of hard work, not having paysite experience, knowing and doing little on the affiliate side we now take 75% of our money from CCBILL from the paysite.

    Seems the paysite converts.

        I'm sure you're joking, since you probably feel it's not my business to ask for that. Regardless, you made a post boasting the profitability of your paysite, which is definitely hard to gauge without a figure for it. That's why I asked for it to begin with. Success is a subjective matter and is always defined by the point of view of the ones assessing it. So, assuming you're joking, it'd be nice to be able to tie your success to a ball-park figure. If you're not joking, well, I guess the answer is quite clear.

                        I always take the figures quoted on these boards with a lump of soap so reluctant to give them out. but let's say it's into the 5 figure range.

                        The nice thing is the lack of work we put into it and in 3-4 weeks I will kick into action plans to get traffic from people who buy porn rather than surf for free.

                        I don't think I said it was easy, just said it's not as hard as some try to make out.

                                Paul are you forgetting that you basically get your content at no to very little cost while most paysites have to cover that expense? You definitely have an extra edge though.

                                    Not only that, but he has a stock pile of it. and is adding to that, and most of that overhead, is paid for by the content store...

                                    People will jump on sending you traffic, because they know the site will convert. they KNOW that you have tons of photos, and they KNOW that you wont rip them off, and risk the content site at the same time.

                                              Nice to hear Paul.

                                              You have to admit that you have a very nice edge though - since you sell porn and use what you create for your own site. I'm not knocking that...

                                              My philosphy about Paul Markham Teens is this:

                                              If Paul Markham Teens does not convert, then nothing will convert. I mean, shit!! You have some of the hottest teen content out there... and you use the vast majority of what is in your store on your site.

                                              Seems pretty obvious to me that you are a success... as am I when I promote your site.

                                                Yeah, I agree with Lifer. Paul, you should be fucking rich off of your paysite side of things.

                                                Send Evie to NY for a bit and I'll help her with some things...

Seems it's not so tough, without doing a lot of hard work, not having paysite experience, knowing and doing little on the affiliate side we now take 75% of our money from CCBILL from the paysite.

                                                  Seems the paysite converts.
                                                  So you're now saying that you make THREE TIMES the money on your paysite than what you did selling your content? You are aware that your statement means that of every dollar you make, only twenty five CENTS of that now comes from selling content? Content that it seems like EVERYBODY buys? Content that has been providing you and your young wife a comfortable lifestyle in eastern europe?

                                                  And all of this with an Alexa ranking of past 100k?

                                                  I call Bullshit...Unless you weren't making ANY money at all selling content.

                                                  Oh, and I forgot to add, you gotta add in all of that money you make selling to print magazines...

                                                    The nice thing is the lack of work we put into it and in 3-4 weeks I will kick into action plans to get traffic from people who buy porn rather than surf for free.

                                                    I don't think I said it was easy, just said it's not as hard as some try to make out.
                                                    5 isn't too bad, but shows you have a LONG LONG way to go. Lets boast when it is in the 6 figure range

                                                      People will jump on sending you traffic, because they know the site will convert. they KNOW that you have tons of photos, and they KNOW that you wont rip them off, and risk the content site at the same time.
                                                      Good points, but then building any business that turns over decent money involves investment.

                                                      I will sell all the content on both sites for $20,000 and that is the bulk of the financial investment. Then the hard work startes of building the site and promoting it, not that I spend a lot of time doing either.

                                                        Let me be the first one who say NO
                                                        The paysite is a small part of the company. The content store is the largest part and CCBILL with a ceiling of $180 per order is not the big earner.

                                                        I suppose the target would be to get the paysite over taking the magazines content sales.

                                                        In the next few weeks I will flying to the UK to speak to some people about ways to get that to happen.

                                                          I quit arguing with the naysayers long ago Paul. I have no interest in owning or operating a paysite but I started one with a friend that charged $50 a month simply because several here said $50 would never work without hot shit content. Conversions were fine, and rebills were ok. Best part is we used 0 exclusive content, less than a shitpile of pics, 0 videos, a cheap design and 1 feed package. It's all in the marketing and anyone with a desire could start a profitable site for a few grand.

                                                              Alexa rankings while a good indication to traffic do not tell you a thing about conversions and retention.

                                                              We always made enough money from content to afford me to fly to shows and stay in the smaller rooms.

                                                                    Hosting and processing added to it I would say the margins are high. But the 5 figure I quoted is after affiliates are paid out.

In the end our stuff is teens and even if I'm the only one with this set of that teen, on that sofa, it's still teens. There is little twist to make it really exclusive.

                                                                        Plus the money we made out of the content, it will be a very long time before the paysite gets to that level. And if we had not of sold content would we of had the paysite?

                                                                        We let members rate the sets with a star system, they don't rate a set any more because it's exclusive. We changed the tour so it featured the best sets, very few exclusive, in fact some have been good sellers http://www.paulmarkhamteens.com/tour/. Conversions climbed when we changed from the system of putting up the Exclusive sets.

" I don't need to blow out my stuff. It is great. I am great. I can keep my prices high." Then about a month later he comes out with his Bargain Basement site. Obviously that did not make money either so now he tries a pay site. Then after a few months he is saying that is it making all this money. This old coot is fuller of shit than the little plastic baggie I use to clean out the cat box.

All that's been proven is that clients (members) like themed sites, most of them being some sort of reality-based theme or single girl sites. That being said you can't prove that what converts is the lack of content being seen somewhere else, or the actual theme behind the site. Besides, with today's incredibly huge supply of content, I'd say that someone keeping control and making sure stuff doesn't get oversaturated, like Paul does, would have close to as good results as an exclusive-content paysite would. Perhaps better, as I believe Paul has more of a talent for sales than most paysite owners today.

                                                                                  front end conversion is nothing with out retaining the customer as long as possible....it is an out dated model....

                                                                                  Pauls content however is top notch....nothing against that...but i have SEEN the results first hand

" I don't need to blow out my stuff. It is great. I am great. I can keep my prices high." Then about a month later he comes out with his Bargain Basement site. Obviously that did not make money either so now he tries a pay site. Then after a few months he is saying that is it making all this money. This old coot is fuller of shit than the little plastic baggie I use to clean out the cat box.

Well BS.

                                                                                            Eva just gave me the figure of our earnings for Paul Markham Teens. Seems it's not so tough, without doing a lot of hard work, not having paysite experience, knowing and doing little on the affiliate side we now take 75% of our money from CCBILL from the paysite.

                                                                                            Seems the paysite converts.

                                                                                            On one well level I really enjoy reading your posts and seeing how bold you are with your statements, ideas and theories. There are very few people who do this. There are a few who do however and they never put any of their talk into action.
                                                                                            There are people who make a lot of money in this biz and don't say a peep. And it is a shame.
                                                                                            For a lot of people who struggle in this biz or have doubts I do believe that they should really read your posts and take them as words of encouragement!

                                                                                            Paul I find however that for some reason you take things way to literal and seems that you feel like you have your back against the wall trying to defend your statements sometimes. Listen man, you have been in this business for a long time, you have shot some good if not great content. You are highly motivated and really a nice guy and you have made a sucessfull career for yourself. Congrats to you. I would forget all the idiots on this board and just relax and take it easy. Don't worry about all the bullshit cause it is the bullshit that really starts to eat away at you. I know this might be a motivator but I am sure there are a lot better things you can do with your time other then trying to defend yourself. have a beer tonight and enjoy the sunset!

                                                                                              but if you want xxx,xxx.xxx then you will most definitely have to go exclusive..find your audience and keep them in the site....

                                                                                              I think this has been proven over and over again...

                                                                                              If AW was right why is the average stay on a site 2 months, maybe 3? If the surfer only wanted a site with content "they can ONLY see at your site" why does he move on and where does he move on to?

                                                                                              And how do you keep repeating it and proving again and again, or is it the fact that every girl is in pink panties and a white bra that makes it "Exclusive"?

                                                                                              The porn buyer takes a fix of porn from this site of teens, then that site, then that site, because he's not interested in exclusive. Only in stuff that makes sense and he has not seen before.
