Jays XXX Stats 2008

Let’s face it. Everyone said 2008 was going to be a pivotal year for the paysite / affiliate model. I’ve crunched the numbers for the first half of 2008 and things are looking just as dismal as expected. Revenues are down for me as much as 60% from what they were 2 years ago. Sure, I’ve been spending more time on OCCash and I might have lost a few search terms, but I still have a shitload of traffic and the fact is people are not buying like they used to.

Weather it’s the illegal-tube-site-effect, the economy, aggressive xsales, torrents, tricky trial members areas, or lack luster content; people are just not joining porn sites like they used to.

Here’s a few notes from this stats run:

1. As always, ratios are ratios, but cash is cash. The top earners are really the best gauge of what makes the real money:

2. Orgycash killed it. Probably because they bill in Euros and have great content. Either way, they shot way to the top.

3. Fuckyoucash is going to be a stable hot program that will put money in your pocket. They make their debut on my top earners this run.

4. With so much free porn being given away, the only thing left to sell is interactivity. I’ve seriously been considering pulling my AFF traffic, but they do bring home the bacon, plus I doubt the loss of my traffic would even affect them.

5. The old over-saturated sponsors people say don’t convert like Nasty Dollars and Bangbros convert again because other people are out promoting new over saturated programs.

6. Revshare is way better than PPS if a sites conetnt is good and updates are strong. Almost everyone that made it to the top of the Earnings-Per-Click did do because of rebills. Even sponsor with horrible ratios held their own because of solid rebills.

The rest of this year should remain interesting and chalenging. Hopefully, the porn slinging environment will change before it’s time to crunch the numbers again!

Here are my stats for all of 2008 for the entire year to present:
