any insiders want to drop the bag? what business model is working the best? any under the radar websites that are doing well. I am more interested in the under the radar type sites, not the obvious porn sites that are doing well. everyone bitches about dvd sales but a site with 1000 members at $30/m is $30,000/m for those who dropped out of highschool. come on...isn't this where the money is?
True, there is nothing new under the sun. But there are plenty of niche subjects which remain unexploited from a website standpoint, or have not been done well. For quick example: the equivalent of JBvideo.com but specialize in voluptuous/thick/bigbutt/BBW/mature type of models and pornstars does not exist.
Probably why VOD sites like Clips4Sale are thriving. They take 40%; you don't have to invest or pay a cent. The problem with that is it makes the clips so damn expensive.
Damn skippy. There are a lot of clips on C4S sites I'd really like to buy, but I have a hard time justifying paying $10 for a 10 minute clip when I can buy a whole video for $10. It'd help their cause with me if they'd improve their previews, i.e. have clickable thumbnails that link to screenshot pages for every clip instead of having those 10-second previews in the best of cases and just one screengrab (if it's even a screengrab at all) in the worst of cases. Buying many of the clips strewn across all their sites is taking a leap of faith. And to the topic at hand, yeah, C4S probably does very well for itself.
