When will TGP sites cut out paysites?
 

They don't need paysites anymore, they got more content than most paysites and micropayment is available. Is it just a matter of time before paysites as we know it today are replaced with TGPs?

other way around

LOL what content do TGP's have that they can charge for?

lol - i guess this would be when TGPs buy content that they could use after all these paysites just disappear for some reason thats simply unfathomable.

then TGPs would need to come up with some money making model to support the bandwidth costs and the costs of this content, including the workload needed to support building all the galleries and editing the content.

after that, I guess this could happen, and I'd assume by this time, I'll be able to fly without the use of mechanical propulsion. :winkwink:

I'd say paysites will own the tgps long before tgps cut out paysites

heh lol.
TGPs rely on content providers/sponsors.
Its true that theres lots of free porn out there.
But if they owned paysites, it would be just a hobby, with no revenue :)

Its called vertical integration. Just like the railroads in the 1800s

TGPs need Paysites to send to in order to make money and Paysites need TGPs to send them traffic to make money, it's like a circle of life that I don't think will ever end, ha ha.

they could charge people to get access to their old galleries...

HAHA... even completely drunk this sounds highly moronic... HAHHA :pimp

Alot of TGP's are already tied into their own janswebring or deluxepass/videosz site. So in a way they are trying to upsell their surfers on all the crazy big clips in their members areas.

DH

I will have a free tgp and take all your traffic.

TGP's are so 2004

The whole tgp thing is so comercial. Taking over payed sites? put down the crack pipe

TGP is bigger than ever, what other source generate more traffic?

Who gives a shit about more traffic when 340k gallery views = $200 or less? If I had to see 340k surfers to make $200 I would cry, jump in a lake, light myself on fire, become an alcoholic, and start fucking sheep.

You'll see more large TGPs starting paysites of their own.
Too much money is being lost to sponsors.

You won't see shit. If TGP's were into designing shit they would only promote with galleries they made themselves and keep every penny. Aside from designing a redonkulous number of galleries they would also have to add the headaches of a paysite. Sure some TGP owner might make his own site but no way will it replace galleries on his shit. You put only your own sites on a popular TGP and that TGP is popular no more.

Maybe it will be more like a combination. We use our TGPs to generate traffic to our own paysites. But the good thing is, that we are able to make good money by sending visitors, that do not want to sign up at our sites, to other niche sites.

Haha. smartest post in this idiotic thread. How in earth could all TGP owners to agree and charge for content?

Yes, it will all happen in the year 2015. Los Angeles will become a maximum security prison for all citizens, and the only law will be, "SURVIVAL"!

my opinion as well

this thread deserves a donut

Paysite payouts drive the entire rev model for tgps, I really don't see where you're going w\ this.

Too many people apparently think online porn is unique and don't look at the cycles other maturing businesses go through. Otherwise they would expect to see more people attempting to bring as much as possible in-house during the next few years.

There is an obvious appeal for content-based sites to secure their own traffic sources and for people with lots of traffic to sell it their own products. Both scenarios are already happening.

Usually it isn't long before most people return to their roots. Entrepreneurs are not generally very good at letting go of the reins, so they stretch their time too far and take on things for which they have no real talent. But it is possible for the Richard Branson types who are willing to let competent people run the different arms of their businesses, to make diversity work.

lol i agree but its probably a lot easier to generate that 340k of traffic than the traffic needed to generate the same amount of income on say a mainstream type site.

Perhaps, but the overhead is higher. 34K of traffic will burn less bandwidth than 340K of traffic. :)

Why would they need to make their own galleries when they can charge webmasters for the privilege of submitting their galleries. Soon, they'll require webmasters to only submit galleries with their "paysite" promo while still charging them for the privilege.

It's called market equilibrium.

xs to their archives for example.
