How Has The Election Affected Your Business?
 
Since October 3rd paysite sales have been down almost 50%. It's as if someone threw a switch and everything was cut down almost in half. With the exception of one week it's been this way for over a month now. Could the US Election be to blame?

After the results I was hoping sales would bounce back but they have not (yet). Then I tune in to radio, watch some news on TV, and realize many Americans are FREAKED OUT and seriously worried about what will happen to the USA (and the world) now that we have a reality show celebrity as President.

(Maybe if we had elected Kim Kardashian things wouldn't seem so terrible.)

Porn is a release from stress and this Election was very stressful...yet traffic and sales continue to be anemic. What can we expect for the rest of the year? Will the Holiday Season turn things around? How has this insane Election season affected your business?

The past year I have setup a business that would thrive in case a democratic win. Now I have setup this business and will do twice as good in a thriving market :)

Win win

Its simple really. After 8 yrs of Obama people are optimistic about the future.

Adapt or die.

Sales went up the day after election but I prepped for the influx of people wanting stress relief on platforms where I have a presence.

Hint: most people weren't promoting middle of the week and hadn't thought about it :thumbsup

Today is slow but will pickup Sund night & Monday morning/night

Thank you Mr. President!

Business never been so bad... :Oh crap

The Porn Nerd 11-13-2016 10:42 AM

Maybe sales and people's confidence that everything will be ok will not return until after next year when Trump is sworn in.

Let's hope I am wrong here.

We are not that dependent on the USA with a more global presence.

Since Mike Pence is having wet dreams of *Pornageddon* I would definitely offshore some of even all operations.

The .CAM Registry is domiciled in The Netherlands where there are EU privacy directives and Dutch laws in place. ICANN is now a NGO with no control by the US Government. Your domain name can only be seized with a warrant from the Dutch Courts. We can refer you to Registrars in the EU where your whois privacy is protected by EU laws. 2257 is not the law in the EU. There are only age laws for porn content but court orders require evidence of a crime.

There are many good data centers and hosts in Amsterdam that will respect only the orders of the Dutch Courts.

The above only solicits lawful businesses. Copyright will be respected and under-age content is expressly forbidden by our policies and TOS as well as by law.

I got a surge of sells 1 hour after the election. That was after a 4 day dry spell on sells.

That may be an overreaction. Plus you have to factor in the new EU Visa CB rates, which is hurting sales.

I don't think Trump will do jack shit when it comes to porn or drugs or anything fun.

Made best sales ever Saturday and Sunday going into election. Monday was great, Tuesday was best Tuesday ever. Wednesday same. Tuesday was amazing. Friday and Saturday were good, but not spectacular. Sunday was spectacular.

Basically haven't noticed anything negative sales wise. If anything it seems people jerked off more than normal.

and maybe it doesnt have to do anything with Trump or whatever, but rather with two factors :winkwink::winkwink::winkwink: :
a) porn is for free ! everyone knows that and everyone with brain can find full ength videos from any paysite these days
b) processors scrubbing also doesnt help

And let me say that again: porn is for free ! Any guy browsing tubes for hours ir lost customer, he may jerk off 24/7 without paying for anything...and he is conditioned like that.. just like younger generations

So actually no idea about what you expected.

We're a an traffic network so not sure if we count, but our stats and traffic sales have actually been growing. We're getting more and more regular as well as Members Area
sites into our system who we heavily promote to our advertisers so that could be why :2 cents:
