Seriously wtf is with sales lately?
 

Please tell me I am not the only one who is for some reason converting like shiet.. Everything just seems so.... slow. For me at least. :helpme

hope things start to look up for you :)

time to change sponsors...

Check your linkcodes, man! j/k!

Sorry, I've been doing a lot of praying lately. That must be it.

LOL.

:)

Blame everything on zango.

the internet is now littered with free porn, zango, guba, imesh/kazaa, etc etc......it's a long term thing and i think it will only get worse and worse

Unfortunately I think you're right .

The average surfer has gotten smarter.

In the past in the early days the only way you could find good pictures was to cruise newsgroups (complicated), free sites (hard to find exactly what you were looking for), or join pay sites - where you could find the content you were looking for without having to hunt high and low for it.

Today we have Google picture search and other related tools. Like lesbians? Type in "lesbians" into Google picture search and you can entertain yourself for hours without spending a dime. Paysites are more or less a collection of the content surfers wanted to see, but now it's much easier to find what you are looking for. All of the innovation the adult industry has done has trickled down to all corners of the Internet. I post on a Mustang board devoted to women who own Mustangs with a huge photo archive.

Combine this with the fact that male surfers are more interested in trying to pick up chicks on MYSPACE or spending their time on YOUTUBE..... And there is less of a desire to pay for porn.

What we need here is some new ideas. We need sites with DVD quality videos (which can be played on big ass plasma tvs), hands free photo galleries, interactive games, and the ability to transfer pictures to their cell phones and other mobile devices.

I'm done. </rant>

Rochard hit a lot of it right on the money. The other part he didn't hit on, The World Series... Since a large portion of your sales is probably US/CA you need to account for that. Since todays game got rained out I did 20% more than I normally would have on a Wednesday.

nice fucking post rochard, you should get employee of the day award in the offices! :thumbsup

my sales are shit lately and with some good serps too.

my sales are down the toilet as well....

i'm thinking of going back to cleaning toilets...earns more and certainly less drama :D

good points... and till some comes up with new formats of delivering and capturing that audiences attention and is achived again its gonna be rough and tough guerilla marketing for everyone.

Sales have been pretty steady for me the past few days/weeks :2 cents:

whoa,
thats so weird
the username of the guy that started this thread is exactly what i had to put into the lil CAPTCHA box just now sending an epass payment to someone

For some the numbers rock and for some they are shit, all depends on how you target your traffic and where you get it from. But I do agree with everything Rochard says above, really makes u think doesnt it.

Try my dating program, I just redesigned Cyber Cheating Wives and it is killing it. :)

are the sites you are using process with paycom?

Zango, KaZaA, smarter surfers.. all bullshit

One sponsor:
I was doing 10 sales daily, dropped to 5, then 3, then zero for like 3 days.. now back up to 10+... something strange happend during October.. and i don't know but i'm glad its over or atleast speeding back up.

Paycom & CCBill have had problems this week, at different times and at the same time. CCBill was havig issues with reporting joins today. It also appears part of the net has had some dos attack issues this week.

So just a crap week, it will clear up next week.

Lets all hope so, more sales for everyone! :)

Monday was awesome for us. Tuesday and Wednesday was a little slower but I think things will be kicking up again for the weekend. October has defintely been a strange month though.

It's because I stole your sales. Forgot to tell you, sorry. ;)

Another reason.... people giving away minutes of free videos on various galleries

nothing for me too...

I had a really kick ass end of Sep and begining of Oct and the last week or so has been rediculously low sales. Same traffic quantity and quality but absolutely shithouse sales. Today has picked up a fair bit. I dunno I'm only a n00b is this time of year traditionally slow?

Right, although I think it can still be as profitable as the years before if you adapt a bit. I switched alot of my advertising to things surfers can't get for free, like webcam, dating, male enhancement stuff and put up more niche specific sites with content that is pretty hard to find for free.

I have to go back to my old job.... GIGOLO... my sales sucks

I must agree with Rochard on a lot of stuff stuff, especially the mobile comment, supplying content to the mobile is like entering a virgin rainforest to cut down trees. There is an expense to set up but the sooner you get in the mobile space the more land you can grab. And once you have the users hooked on your supply to their mobile they are a lot more loyal than they are on the web for rebuying more content. You also have the ability to communicate with thm directly by sending broadcast messages to their phone.

My sales sucked at the start of the month. But since last week I've seen my sales have almost double. Maybe everyone has just got paid.

Seriously go smoke a pole.

Porn will die :(

Sales has been pretty unstable...

traffic is up :) sales are down :(

We have seen a drop in traffic but conversions are really good. Its strange.

Soon we will be coming out with some amazing software to make our sites Interactive for the surfers. stayed tuned
