Ive tried and tested submitting to tubes, its a big joke. Even though it is the obvious, at least i got some numbers out of it to back it up, the winners of the model:
1. tube owner (obviously)
2. advertiser
3. ...
4. ..
5. .
99. the content producer

As a content producer you MIGHT make a sale, the owner WILL make money and the advertiser will most likely make money if its not his first shot at it. The ratio is horrible, anyone saying different must be lying (if not, good for you!). The best option is the model paidperview has gone with (big credit to them, good job!), but the traffic per video is does not justify the time and effort spent on it. The only tubes worth while submitting to is the very top ones, pornhub, xhamster etc.

Now, if you instead were to submit your content to piracy forums, you would probably make more from selling file locker accounts from it (revhsare, or even pp download) , and getting paid per thumbnail view on image hosts. Havnt tried it but im SURE, that will bring in more money than tubes.

you know the industry is fucked up when the pirates will make you more money from YOUR content, than the industry itself.
