How is traffic these days?

10-40%? 40% is a minimum for most people I think. I know I'm down more than 40%.

Building free sites and galleries are still worth it but you are not going to get rich doing it like many were doing in early-mid 2000's. And being down 50% might mean you still make more than you could at a day job so it's bad yes but things could be worse. Hopefully they don't get worse.

Yeah I was "assuming" the tgp/freesite side of things would be similar to paysites. I was using the 10-40% decrease based on people in the paysite world. I know we havn't taken a heavy dip, we are on the low end of the decrease, but I could imagine with more people becoming internet savvy and with the amount of tubes, free porn out there, I can imagine it is more than 40% on the marketing side of things I suppose.

Where do you see the trend going? Do you see it slowing down? Do you think its going to take a drastic change in the way people market adult sites to build traffic? I really don't see that much in the way of social networking sites for porn, why do you guys think that is? (Especially since that is the trend in mainstream).

What he said. The amount of effort and projects I have going now. My god if only I had been working this hard a couple years ago even. The money is still out there though. It just takes a hell of a lot more webs to catch those flies.
