is it the traffic that ones bringing in? or is it the sponsor that went to shit?
Dude? I don't shit money to be able to continue experimenting like that? lol
I mean it takes money to make money, but limits have to be set. and another thing is when dealing with sponsors is which way to go? sales suck in revshare but it suppose to be the long time investment idea? or the webmaster that likes the ppc concept cause he knows the sites gonna be trash in a year anyway?

Sales in porn? are you still generating them? I hear people who have pages with PR7 and show shit sales according to them.

I dunno rhetorical but I believe maybe there is no more porn to sell on the Internet, not with all the free content the sponsor offer and how easy it is to obtain a affiliate membership now. All I need is a free hosted url and know how to cut copy and paste, and away one goes with tons of free porn content. I recently discovered this site which offers hardlink trades, And I was astonished at some of the pages people offer to trade with, I'm talking PR 3, 4 and 5's and they look like garbage ass linked bannered nasty looking pages. I want understood here, I use PR loosely cause its whats popular now in showing examples. Alexis would be a better example. But I just wanted to demonstrate how porn is not much for sale anymore.

I think there is still lots of porn to sell. There was a scientist, quite a learned fellow, in the 19th Century that claimed that all scientific discoveries had been made. We knew it all. Well obviously he was well wrong. There is still lots of porn to sell. Admittedly it is a tough market with all the free stuff floating around. But there is still a large fan base that doesn't mind paying and doesn't want to spend all his time scrounging for free stuff. Those are our customers. Find them, and you have the Holy Grail of porn.
As for the PR and Alexa, they can be taken with a grain of salt. I do find Alexa useful for evaluating free sites like this board, for instance, but shite for pay sites.

I would like to say that this is the most informative thread on Oprano in awhile. More of these business threads would be very useful.

I agree and I have my 2 cents worth after I can read whats been said here so far.

Quick reply is that it may more effective to presell the site but its the sponsors site to make sure they retain.

I believe the single most telling way to judge any site is by their retention.

When u say retention, I assume you mean retaining surfer on my sites?
Well retention means content, Content means bandwidth and space, Bandwidth and space means $$$, and $$$ means I dont got none..LOL
I think the idea is to get the surfer off my site as fast as possible into my sponsors arms.
I don't need them freeloading and jacking off to the content I already offer. If this is what they what to do? Then do it at the sponsors expense, on they're free galleries. Is it my fault that the average surfer get his rocks off on a few pictures or some free clip previews? therefore they're not having to purchase nothing. This thread was a grip poll about sponsors, Well my biggest grip is they except surfmaster to easily sign up and have all the free porn they want.

I actually meant rebilling on the sponsors content site.

"Hogwash rhetorical, Its not my job to do the sale..."

Huh? Of course it is.

"Put thats the secret to being a good salesman isn't it? to convince the customer that even though he came in looking for chocolate, vanilla is better."

If they're looking for chocolate, sell them chocolate. If they like it, they'll keep coming back to you for more chocolate. Just make all the selections readily available, chocolate, vanilla, etc. You don't need to convince them they're looking for something you want to sell, just make it easy and convenient for them to find what it is they want to buy.

"...it may be my responsibility to presell the site but its the sponsors site to make sure they retain."

Yes.

Just my 2 pennies.
