Well, to smaller sites, porn isn't cheap to produce because alot of bigger sites set the standard rates and have more money to spend. All of the content at my site is exclusive , I create it all from casting to editing and uploading it to the net. I personally charge more for my site, because alot of times models are affiliates, and half the sale goes to them..or the promoter, blog owner, review site..Even as a small site owner, I am not offering more for less, in porn i dont think there will be an increase in deals because everyone already gives away so much. I was offering a 9.99 3 day trial and it ended up really working against me. After a month of that it was impossible to do any longer. I do offer that as an incentive at our social networking style online magazine if you join free.
Between the billing company,paying out models and the cost of your studio /equipment I dont think that 9.99 for everything youve invested in is a good idea at all, for anyone, and especially me. I dont create middle of the road content, I dont sell the content and I have to split it with someone most of te time.
I think that a major reason why this country is in a recession is because of the pirating of entertainment items like dvd's and movies and music. Americas has always thrived due to the talent that comes from Hollywood, or various other places. There has always been money in that. The lack of respect for how many talented people it takes to make anything at all, is kind of baffling to me personally. I'm not saying that wanting to get a deal is disrespectful, i mean more along the lines of people that pirate it all and ultimately screw everyone over. I think its having a major impact on entertainment itself , regardless of if its porn or more mainstream entertainment. Its costing a lot of jobs and money and the prices stay high because they arent able to lower them because so many people are stealing it anyway. Its a vicious cycyle. I've been watching it happen since napster and all of that. Its just much worse now. LZR!BNNY |
