Does revshare really suck lately?

[Alphawolf]

For sure the spread of broadband has eroded rebills on certain sites.

Probably for revshare programs that have been around for a long time like karups/atk and have a huge archive would do better than a new revshare program.

I haven't seen too many backends, but atk's is excellent. If I wanted to pay for porn I'd be quite happy paying for a membership there.

Due to my HD crash I lost the only porn I ever paid for - which I got like 2 years ago. I bit the bullet and joined the site.

I was fucking pissed when I clciked on the movies in cache and WMP requested a username/pass everytime it loaded.

Copying them from cache to somewhere else which renames the moves fixed that.

But, I simply kept the site open in the background and clicked on every movie as I worked on other things.

Kept the cache folder open and copied a few dozen movies every once in a while.

The price was high and there was a little forum and people complained about the lack of updates and high price. The latest additions had broken links.

<shrug>

After I downloaded ALL the movies available, I cancelled. CCbill told me the membership was good for like another 27 days- that surprised me.

Thing is- there's just nothing to even go back to the site for.

In order to retain people monthly the paysite really HAS to come out with a shitload of updates every month and be consistent about it.

The content would almost have to be custom.

I have 2 online buddies that do buy porn. They both tend to join a trial and download as much as possible into cache then copy it to a CD or HD to view later. Meaning- they don't wank off to the site. It's a lot more fun to have GIGS of stuff in one folder than click around.

ATK Galleria, Natural, and Exotic were all great values IMO. The new affiliate mgr let me in the backend for 3 mos to get content.

They have a really clean backend and SO much good content it boggles the mind.

They poll their users to ask what they specifically like so that they can give them more of what they want.

I've seen a couple other backends that were just SHIT interfaces. One is a big sponsor and I was pretty disappointed at how bad the back end was.

Logically, why would anyone retain a membership unless there were so many updates they felt they were getting a great deal at their monthly price?

Makes much more sense to simply click on everything, copy from cache quit then come back months later and repeat from where ya left off.

So- quality custom content, good price point, frequent updates and a nice clean easy to navigate back end seems the best for revshare.
