Yes, you are a glorified affiliate doing more work.
If other programs retained as well I probably would not of tried AVS. SheepGuy convinced me to try it and I thank him for it.
At NV, $3 for 7 day trial, $15 for full month, $22 on rebills plus they just upped payouts to $17.50 for upsells to their own program. About 15% of my members are rebilling at $39.50 a month. You can also upsell within your members area but that really only turns into an extra couple of sales here and there, for me at least.
It's your site, so if you want to pull it and turn it into a paysite, go ahead. Probably better to leave a smaller softer members area as AVS and then upsell your bigger better paysite if you decide to go that way.
I have been on the fence about turning mine into paysites for over a year now. Having affiliates does not guarantee more sales if you can't get the ones that actually sell to promote you.
Probably the cheapest way to see if you can sell your own site, especially if you have content laying around not doing a damn thing. All my sites started that way
I always start with a couple thousand pics or more but you only need like 400 to start one.
Then again, this is old school stuff so it just can't work anymore
