Trends Trends Trends..

Well over the past prob 4-5 months now I have seen a trend in very crappy conversion ratios and less sales :/ IM pretty much gonna just start keeping my own traffic.

Geo Filtering/Targeting/Redirecting is a good thing to be using now esp with conversions getting harder, you want to make sure you can maixmize all of your traffic, and from what we can see from people using some of our soft 40% of their traffic is foreign so unless you have a plan to convert that well your throwing out alot of traffic.

reality sites are getting old, lots of things cropping up, altho my fav still has to be CFF, but i only get to see the preview clips

I think we are going to start loosing alot of the smaller webmasters out there, the ones that really provide the big guys with tgp traffic, gallery traffic, and exit traffic. Well this doesnt boat well for anyone running a sponsor/affiliate program.

Money is tight and im not sure if anyone else is feeling it but Ill be the first to admit that things have SLOWN down (war, economy, summer, etc)

Another note while im on my rant, i would love to see pop-ups gone or at least only ONE clean pop up, nothing like being caught in some pop-up hell and speaking of that IF IE ever comes out with a pop-up blocker you can kiss that traffic goodbye since prob 80% of people use some form of IE.

I think alot of peole have been re-evaluating their positions in the adult industry its not a bad industry but there is still alot of crap going on.
