It depends who is telling you. no nick fools, guys who failed at running paysites, the jealous. I really don't think they can give anyone any advice.

By the way, what happened to your paysite and are you now full time at YNOT or is it just to boost your meager wages blogging?

Seriously look at Nextri's comment. He's trying to flame me, while pointing out what I pointed out. The explosion in porn that online brought, was an explosion is suppliers. The supply side expanded much faster than the demand side.

In the early days 1%-2% buying was good, surfers not clicks, and since then it's got worse. so it's logical to assume that a lot of the "growth" in potential customers was just a growth in free loaders. And since then it's got worse. Everyone would be millionaires if they converted 1% to 2% today.

Conversions are more like 1-1,000s. So the growth in demand can't be linked to traffic. The real figures are known only be CCbill, so yes like you I'm doing a calculated guess. Yet the growth in supply can be seen everywhere.

Now either make a logical sensible reply or STFU. Because I see no one who can point out where I'm wrong.

The houses porn built.









Not a Photoshop by placing their logo on the building.



Yes they were built with money outside porn, but porn was the seed money, the income was rock solid and the banks were open wallets. Still I know where many of them made their real fortune, especially the magazine publishers. Nextri shows himself to not know when he talks about distribution. distribution of magazines was 0 cost.

If you had been in porn before the online version, you might of been to Score's building in Miami, Bookpress in Holland, PRO in London Soho, Northern & Shell's office in London Docklands, Swanks offices in New Jersey. And more. These giants were not built by online porn. We have FFN, who share issue was a joke, Manwin who no body knows much about and lots of people working from home. Where is your office?

The problem is few here have a clue outside of their spare bedroom which doubles up as an office. If they want a board that can keep up the illusion, then yes I spoil it for them.
