What would keep you stay on as a member of the site . What would make you cancel?...

Let me first say that I'm far from your average surfer. I can count the number of times I've taken my CC out of my wallet and joined a site on one hand, so take my opinion with the proper number of grains of salt.

For me, two things make me remain a member of a site beyond the initial purchase. One, regular updates of the type of content that made me join in the first place. And two developing a raport with the girl(s) on the site through live chat, shows, journals, etc.

First off - let me tell ya that over the last two months I have joined well over 30 different sponsors paysites to see exactly what I was pushing - and was not pleased in at least half the cases.

On some the inside was so poorly done it looked like someone had paid their neighbor to design the inside - literally links all over the place with no design whatsoever - Im pulling them as a sponsor which is a shame because I know that GG is under me and I get a nice check from them every month - just cant do that to my surfers though

The next thing I saw was that in at least 15 of the paysites, they all used the exact same feeds, same plugins and didnt offer much in the way of original stuff - not that it was surprising with the cookie cutter approach of most sponsors - its no wonder they dont retain members and have to resort to upsells in the members area to break even.

Of the other half I visited, they were much smaller paysites of the targetted niche type run by single site WMs, not the multisite conglamerates - and most were very well done with obvious clean updates being very frequent and looked like they will retain the surfer - those will be my push as far as sales in the future.

The only other thing that stuck out in my mind was how much the sites have downsized over the last 10 years - I remember paysites having huge amounts of "different" content, wheras now its all the same and relies way too much on feeds of reality junk instead of the intended niche of the paysite

I agree totally. I have gotten access to a couple of my sponsors member areas and was very, very disaopointed. Crap design,very blah Its no wonder they dont offer rev share I couldnt imagine anyone sticking with it that long.

about a year and a half ago we did some site reviews and had access to some of the bigger programs, one of which was a sponsor i was pushing heaviily.

Imagine having an ebony site that promises on its tour 200K + pictures and only 5K are ebony and the rest are white girls posing?? one of them had the last update was in octmember. LMAO.. i was like WTF..

and Alex hit it when he said they spend big bucks on the tour but the member section is just lame.

We kicked them all to the curb, revamped our business plan, promote only sites that allow us access for at least 24 hours and really push the indie sites, like KatVixen because they are unique, packed with content, update regularly and have great retention and rebill rates, easy to access, and terrific to work with.

Thanks Docholly!

We do work hard on our site & I'm very happy to hear that it shows.
