In the lines you didn't quote I described some of the numbers that could be seen, that I have seen personally, in a complete system. So, I already talked about what you just suggested as an alternative to my comment about the straight decline.
I said this, "Now, with good overall strategy you leverage that out over time, so the freesite maybe makes 3 sales the next year, two the following year, and four the year after that.
Over time, that means we folks with older networks start making pretty decent money."
Traffic doesn't increase endlessly. It tends to reach a average level, and, if you are good at what you do, stay roughly at that level. This level is based on how much work you are doing, and on your traffic strategies, and also on the seasonal and stochastic distribution of traffic generally on any given day or month.
Traffic isn't infinite, and adult traffic has in general been slowly declining and slowly becoming less profitable.
Search engine traffic has also declined, in general, altho some types of pages are doing better now than, say, two years ago. But, the little freesite has much less chance of a listing that will actually bring hits now than ever before.
(I'm simplifying the factors involved in average levels of traffic, for the sake of simplifying this discussion.)
The bottom line is that everyone has to do the measurements for themselves. Some niches and sales strategies might give a better average number of sales per freesite - shemale has that reputation.
So, I invite you to work the numbers. Count how mnay sites per week you can realistically submit, and average out how many sales you get.

So, if a person was to take many niches and target the SE's for several varying keywords (shemale sex, shemales fucking, shemale ass, etc and when they run out do bbw sex, bbw ass, bbw tits, etc and on and on) and achieves them to an extent (not necessarily first page, but getting some traffic) and they do this for every niche and as many keywords as possible, you say that the profitability will decline? Why is that?
At what point do you think the decline starts happening? 100 freesites? 1000?
I would just think that if targeting many niches with different kw's for the SE's, traffic would slowly increase over time, and not really plateau.
I guess there could be the eventual deindexing of old old sites that could most definetely cause a plateau. What do you think?
Oh, and sorry if this post doesn't make sense, heh...just trying to put my thoughts into text
