When you take a look at Clips4Sale, you may notice that their most recent stores are numbered up in the 221,000s. The most recent I was able to find at the time of writing is 221,729. They always brag about the number of studios (stores), and you might be forgiven for thinking they must make a fortune from all these producers. Well, they do make a fortune, but not because they have hundreds of thousands of producers working for them.

I'm going to share a little data with you. I have a total of 8 stores on Clips4Sale, three of which do well enough to warrant regular attention from me. The projects I launched years ago that never really took off (foot fetish and voluntary stripping, for example) make a few sales per month, but never enough to get me excited about updating them anymore. Below are data from four of them.

Store #
43378 $10.18 Studio Global Rank # 8323
26160 $11.38 Studio Global Rank # 7262
41292 $7.79 Studio Global Rank # 6925
19267 $32.91 Studio Global Rank # 5603

The balances shown are what has been generated so far this month, and they are only ranked if a sale was made during the preceding 7 days. Now look at the global ranking for each one, meaning its position in terms of sales compared to the 221,000+ other studios. My lowest ranking studio stands at 8,323 and it has only made about $10 so far this month. Still, it has made more than the remaining 213,406 studios ranked below it. In other words, the vast majority of studios on C4S generate nothing to almost nothing. Most of the income arises from the top 500 stores, and the most significant sums are from the top 50.

Please don't share this on social media. I'm not trying to rub rhubarb over at C4S, only to show that statistics can be very misleading.

Your secret is safe with us! It is all hush, hush! Still, it is very interesting to note the data that you presented. Your other stores will do better business with you at the helm and not C4S.

That's really interesting. It's no great surprise that a lot of studios make very little; many of them will not have been updated for years (does it cost anything to keep a dormant store open?), and others will sell very few, even if they are periodically updated. I think I'm right in saying that you disappear off the 'featured' lists very quickly if you don't post new material regularly.

But the scale of the issue is staggering, isn't it? Basically, hardly anyone (in percentage terms) is making any money!!! I bet the graph looks something like the one which shows how much income/wealth is concentrated in the bank accounts of the richest people in the world, compared with the rest of the population...

Now let's keep all Dave's stores in the top 10,000! [Except that the people here probably buy from the Purchase Store, don't we?]
