I'd just like to see paysites start using real marketing to sell the surfer, If done well, price would not be much of an issue and better conversions for both sides. I remember when 1:100 wasn't uncommon, now it seems like 1:500 is good. I think the day of throwing up thumbs and some trailers and making bank is gone. Surfers are smarter and there is a whole lot more competition, paysites need to "sell" themselves nowadays. Sex is a human need, people need it. Like booze and smokes, they will find the money.

I agree, don't think the adult biz will be flooded with newbies and as Jim said, many will get filtered out anyways.

A newbie entering this biz to build a site can't start without a worthy investment. In my case I draw my content. No one to pay. Just gimme some Starbucks and Robek's and I'm good to go.

The cost of memberships should be within reach but not too much. If it's too easy, it makes the surfer feel like it ain't worth it. If it's too high the surfer feels standoffish, if it's high but reasonable then you get the bite and attract affiliates. I'm rebuilding my affiliate program. I have to listen to the webmasters and customers. Come to a meeting of the minds so to speak.

hey do you sell domain names too ?
