Industry Stats ????

[EvilDan]

I am writing a business plan that requires me to give estimates as to the size and scope of the industry as it relates to adult paysites, and the supporting infrastruture that goes with it (eg content, traffic and billing etc)

Key details that I am trying to find out include:

Total number adult paysites

Total Annual Gross Revenues

Total Population of staff employed or contracted in the industry.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, as would any links that youu know of that could assist me.

thanks in advance

so you want to know the total number of adult related sites on the web, how much money they all make annually and how many people work on them?? Good luck. With sites and people popping up and dying like weeds everyday thats gonna be almost impossible.

thats a good point. As hard as it has become to make a mark in certian aspects of the biz people are gonna stand pretty tough guard on their hunny holes.

Its funny you say that, as I have been asked that question more than a couple o times lately.

When I finally make as much $$$ outta this gig, I may just put pen to paper for a bit of fun. But in the meantime I am all about sign ups Mr. evil

The reason I was trying to get to these numbers (albeit guessed), was for a business plan I am assisting with.
