How many uniques have you sent in total to the Indian site?

I've sent 18,043 uniques to their Inian site and it just converts 1:820, but it's fairly consistent.

I do have 4 or 5 free sites for it though.

With pimproll I have sent 29306 hits and had 22 sales.

5532 were to indian dream girl with no $$.

I was off a little on the 1/4 thing hehe I had more clicks than I thought. The Indian sites I make seem to get way more traffic than any other niche though. The smaller link lists that have Indian cat's send about double the normal traffic for indian it seems.

Look for link sites and TGPs that specifically have a section for Indian porn. Try to get content / images / programs that are at least a little away from the majority of the other sites there (certain sites have been WAY over submitted), and try to keep a unique angle.

Be careful of sites that put indian and asian together, they are really not the same markets at all.

I think the reason for the difference in results goes back to the old rule "Promote what turns you on". If you do not find Indian women sexually attractive, you are not going to be producing galleries or free sites that work. But if you are, you will.

I would have to disagree with that "rule"... if I send 13,000 clicks (which is 99% from link lists) to a sponsor and get one signup then it isn't because indian girls don't turn me on...

Yes it is. If you don't "understand" the niche than there is a good chance you are accidentally misrepresenting the site and what your advert is inferring the surfer will get is not what the free tour is inferring they get, so it does not convert.

no offense but not promoting a niche because it doesn't "turn you on" is ridiculous IMO.... otherwise their would be a lot less people promoting gay niches and tons of fetish niches and what not... I sent tons of clicks using the sponsors banners and some add text, I didn't misrepresent anything, even changed out ads/banners/text and trial prices.... it was not because they don't turn me on... they actually do |thumb

RE: "not promoting a niche because it doesn't "turn you on" is ridiculous IMO" That is not what I mean. I am saying you will earn less money promoting a niche that is not your thing, but that is no reason not to promote it (unless it takes time away from things that earn you more money). For example, with the current state of the $ I make less money selling my non-adult services to Americans than I do selling them to Europeans, but I still sell to America.

We will soon be opening a single Indian girl site. Many of you met Saffron at Internext in Florida, where she was a huge hit.
If any of you have suggestions, we'd love to hear them!

Dagwolf 2005-03-17 02:03 AM

There's a reason to promote the niches you like. The idea is that if it turns you on, you know what appeals to you about the niche... and the things that appeal to you are the selling points.

On the other hand, people who DON'T understand a particular niche are going to offend surfers and chase them off. BBW is a prime example. When the BBW niche was taking off, tons of photographers and promoters jumped on (they thought) the gravy train. With horrid photographs of hugely obese women in humiliating poses and phrases such as "pick a fold and fuck it", they thought they'd be making big bucks. What they didn't understand was that men who love large women LOVE large women and see them first as women.

If you can't appreciate the niche's appeal, it's hard to sell it. Knowing this, it might seem strange that I'm considering promoting a niche that doesn't especially appeal to me; I'm thinking that maybe I just haven't seen the right content, or the right site.
