I jumped in a little over a couple of years ago and have seen steady increases in traffic over the last couple of years as I learn more about SEO and how things work in general. July was record for me in terms of traffic...but my sales are about 50% of what they were last year...
I had hoped to be thinking about doing this full time by now, but looks like it's not going to happen anytime soon.
It's probably a combination of things discussed...I think tube sites do reduce the amount of paid memberships people buy, and the economy causes people to spend less in general, particularly things like porn which you don't have to have. Together I think it has taken a huge bite out of money spent on porn. There's an awful lot of boring, same old shit porn produced, too. I think it makes the perceived value of porn go down in the eyes of the public. There may be people who want better quality, but don't want to wade through all the shit to get it.
Will be interesting in seeing how it all shakes out as the economy starts to recover.
