Tube site conversion ratio question
Anyone that has a tube site here, have you had good or bad conversion ratios to date with the sponsors content being used, since going live with your sites? Or have you seen a lot of traffic that was/is unproductive so far?
The traffic to my tube has been really good, but the conversion ratios suck! |

I'm sure that's 'normal' for tube sites...

Why would a surfer pay for porn if he can watch hours and hours for free on your tube?

Within 4 days of putting up a tube site, I got a sale, and that was just with less than 100 uniques per day to the tube.

Yeah Fonz, too true, why pay for clear quality when you can jack for free to all that fine fuzzy low quality porn out there I never expected any miracles from the start when I put up a tube...right now tho, I'm just thinking about putting one up at a dedicated domain and take it from there. Thanks for the input guys. |

Tube Sites are, broadly speaking, "Sharing" sites - not "Selling" sites. Make a site, give samples, write sales text. Make sales.
Create a huge archive of free movies with no sales text - and share your free porn collection. Show me otherwise. |

Tube sites can do okay as long as they're very niche specific -- treat it like an MGP and you will get some results out of it. Ratios still suck though

You can now put whatever you want in this space :)

As long as you're not giving stealing and re-distributing full length clips, "it is what it is".
Saw a legal tube the other day using a trading script! |

Legal tubes make money if done carefully, make sure you have good writing to match up with your videos and go with a niche you know. This works for us anyway.
So true, and TGP's are still around everyone said they would kill link lists and free sites which are still aroud too. Makes me wonder how much technology changing really has to do with the habbits of surfers changing. |

My tube/blog does extremely well with long movies. Upsell the high definition videos.

Hell, I decided to put up another blog and put effort into that. The blogs have been producing more conversions for me than a tube.

I have also looked a vid dumps that seem to average around .80 per 1000 visitors and are normally very profitable. As a comparison, my blog/SEO network converts at right around $7 per 1000 unique visitors, which I know is quite good. But, it takes alot of effort to get each of those 1000 visitors.

That's one of the reasons I decided to just go with blogs more than tubes...there's is and always will be that dedicated surfer group(s) who want substance rather than the "quick fix" tube sites deliver. I'm sure that will change in time. It always does. Anything worth doing will take a lot of effort, but it will pay off in the end. |

Usually tubes are doing well with up-selling long movies

Aw, Dad, you've done a lot of great things, but you're a very old man, and old people are useless

I will relate, a phrase, I read from another site. This sentence was like a kick in the nuts to me, when I first read it. "Tube Sites are great for selling everything except porn". This quote came from a old timer in this industry who is converting his sites with hundreds of thousands of uniques a day, over to Tube Sites.
I am relating that sentence out of context of course. This same guy painted a picture of a porn future, with many tube sites selling many products, not just porn. In his theory porn content producers, would do well selling their content, to site owners and surfers alike, thought affiliate tube sites. Anyway, this is one possible outcome, a win win for everyone, and we lived happily ever after. I was always going to diversify, my sites and not just count on blogs, but have tgps, mpgs, and tube sites. |

on some of my tube sites that are really niched out I've done a couple bucks by making sure to have free signup things on it you get a buck or so for just people giving email addresses and such. It's a couple bucks a month, but it all adds up at the end of the year.

- get a scraping script which scrapes big tube sites (they start from $30)
- import 1000s of vids hosted on their servers, not yours of course, hosting is still not free - trade a-b-c hardlinks from your worthless pr0-3 sites so your tube scraper is free from outgoing links to receive more love from the search engines - forget about promoting paysites - noone buys memberships these days when you can find full scenes on torrents and rapidshare - put up dating/cams/enlargement ads and make money. - not to mention that you will do better if you filter out specific niche from big tube sites and make more sites each with it's own niche. as simple as that Last edited by BNS; 2010-01-19 at 08:19 AM.. |

I'd rather not scrape illegal vids to my site and don't want anything to do with those who do.
