Free advertising for paysite owners :)
 

Hello everyone :)

Working on a new project, as always, and need some paysite owners to work with.
Any of these niche's will do - Babes / Models / Pornstars / Teens / Amateurs / Panty / Lingerie / Solo models / Non nude / Blowjobs / Hardcore / Things like this.

What i need:

I need to hot link your videos, from your gallery pages. It will eat up a fair bit of bandwidth, so your giong to need a fast box to keep up.

Now this is only giong to work if your videos are water marked, other wise their will be nothing in it for you.

We CAN water mark your videos for you, although you are giong to need to pay for that service.

Some people might say, what is the purpose of this? How are people giong to find and pay for my site, if i dont have 10 pages of promotional material blasting at them every minute.

Well here is a tip guys - If you have quality - niche targeted ORIGINAL content - you will make sales, from people viewing your video, finding it intreresting, and TYPING IN your website directly.

Not only this, but once your videos are released like this, you will continue to gain targeted FREE traffic, basicly for the lifetime of your site.

How does this work? People share your videos with other surfers who share the same tastes. This is great becuase its free advertising, and it will continue for as long as your videos are out there, which with a bit of work can basicly be forever.

What you get:

Free advertising, no affiliates to pay, it only costs you some bandwidth.

Long term advertising - users will pass your videos around, and provide free targeted users direct to your website, basicly for the life time of your site.

Not only this, but if users dont even buy into your site, you have still created awarness about it, just as you would with a free hosted gallery or something similar.

I think thats a fair enough deal, your paying your affils right now 50% of your sales, why not spend 10% of that in bandwidth, and gain new users automaticly over time?

Also! If any paysite owners can dedicate a box or 2, could be some great advertising for you in exchange, i wont go into details here, just contact me.

ICQ: 192 367 315 - Best way to contact me, i prefer to talk to people direct.

Or you can email me here - johnpr0n@yahoo.com

One last note! - If your running one of those stock standard sites - with content everyone has - This wont work, dont even try

But if you have a quality, original site, with original niche content - This will work very well indeed, to bring a continued flow of targeted traffic to your site - for free.

So you want paysite owners to give up their content for free, hoping that someone MIGHT read the watermark and come to the site?

Wouldn't a DRM solution be better? Have the content time out after a day or two, so it doesn't go far?

What logic would have a paysite owner giving you a hotlink to all their stuff?

I am confused!

Alex

Im glad someone mentioned DRM :)

Can i ask, do any of you web masters actualy surf for porn?

Do you actualy know the ways people buy into a site?

YOU DONT ALWAYS NEED TO PLASTER THE SURFER WITH ADVERTISING - YOUR QUALITY CONTENT IS YOUR ADVERTISING!

I can tell you, not only from experience in surfing sites myself, but from freinds, gallery hosting is not the only way to advertise your site.

If you have 100% original content - for example an exclusive crissy moran photo shoot or something along those lines, of course you will make sales.

How many people have posted to newsgroups, kazaa and other file sharing networks? Ive heard many web masters say this method can generate sales. - And your not showing them your wonderful sales material there are you?

Not only this:

Think about this - You downloaded some video - the best you have ever seen? Do you realy give a fuck what the advertising says?

I would like to suggest no.

And again, people will be passing your videos around for free, generating traffic daily.

So yea i think this is worth it, your saving the money on paying the affilate fee's, and providing another way for surfers to see what you have to offer.

Another note on DRM - And all types of forced traffic realy. Yes the user will have your website opened up with DRM - But if they realy wanted to go there, they would, they dont need to be forced.

Thats another good point - Why are people forcing people to thier sites, its a waste of bandwidth if you ask me, i made more sales last month from 2k clicked traffic then a freind did with 500k of forced UJC traffic...

Funny bout that huh.

Unreal.

Hey, paysite owners - I have a great deal for you - let me plaster your content all over Kazaa - I promise it'll be awesome for you! Oh, but give it to me, first. You can trust me, 'cause I'll give you a reliable, generic free email address where you can contact me any time I feel like hearing from you.

Is everybody in?

Haha.. i was wondering what took the flamers so long...

Good one m8, your post count is +1 - you must know what your talking about to have time to post shit like that.

Edit: Oh and about the email, you plaster your real email everywhere? Hah, i guess you have enough time to filter through all that too...

I can´t see the advantage for a paysite. Where is the advertising? Watermark on clips doesn´t really seem to me very useful.

I want to sell porn, not give it away. Maybe the content is spread all over the net this way, but I highly doubt there will be any sales.

Ok thats a fair enough comment frankthetank. Please - comments and ideas are welcome - just not little kids flaming!

A surfer on kazaa for example (this wasnt actualy where i was planning on releasing your videos - but lets go with this) who see's your video, and likes it, there is a very good chance he will at least look at your site.

Your giong to need original content - stock standard pornstar vids wont do a thing.

Example: www.whorgies.com

Nice site - original content. Place a few short videos on kazaa - i am certain you would generate sales from this. Where else are you giong to find videos of this nature? If someone likes something like this - What do you think the ratio of surfers viewing the video would be hitting up the site?

I would like to suggest a good amount. And once you have released it? What does it cost? Not a cent. People will pass it around for you, and tell thier freinds. Word of mouth is one of the best sources advertising in the world, no matter the industry.

Who has actualy done something like this to promote thier own paysite? I have heard many web masters mention this, how about some feedback on that?

Basicly what i am trying to say here - gallery advertising is not the only way to promote your paysite. If you have quality - niche targeted - original content - You simply need to show it to someone - A picture is worth a thousand words guys.

You can rant on about how you have 1 billion pics and vids and how your site is the best in the world - or you can simply show them what you have to offer. By no means quit your standard gallery advertising - its proven and it works.

BUT.. this is just another cheap way to advertise what you have to offer, outside tgp trafifc. Tgp traffic is shit anyways - This way you can hit new sectors of traffic, easily and with little workload from yourself.

No one can see the benefit in that?

Who has done something along these lines, what was your results?

Simple example:

I have found vids on kazaa - liked them - and checked the site out. I have asked a few freinds, who have also done the same.

Simple.

I used to use this marketing strategy back in 1997 with Newsgroups :D

I'll puchase 2 new computers for you so that you can give away my entire member's area for free. Just send an email to my free Yahoo emaill address areyoufuckingnuts@yahoo.com

The Kazaa and Newsgroup surfers that I know never pay for DVDs, Music or porn. They will spend money on DVD burners, joiners and other things but they never pay for any Audio/Video content. They have a different mind set and enjoy getting somethign for free even if it costs them money on equipment.

Of course sales will be made using your approach but I can also make sales by turning my pay sites into free sites and asking people to send nickles. I'll make sales but I won't be able to feed my family.

This is a very funny thread :)

Those were the good old days.|afro|

Newsgroup visitors nowadays are smart enough to hotlink promo content. I´m registered in some yahoo groups which are created for a porn actress living in austria. Surfers take gigs of bandwidth grabbing free content there, nearly no sales at all - some just remove the reseller ID to galleries.

You can spread teasing content, but today too much content is for free on the net.

OK, but did somebody sign up? If you provide high quality exclusive content, there are high costs to pay before you even get one membership. So I would try to keep the content exclusive.

And if your content becomes "public domain", I´m afraid it will end in less paid memberships.

People should always watermark their content in every case where it's permitted.
On another note, if I had some marketing idea that I personally believed in and had data to back my presentation, I'd approach some sponsors myself. Some may be willing to test drive it on a small scale.

Is this how you intend drawing in advertisers? Is this you being professional?

Mishi's post is not a flame. It's a very fair criticism of your marketing plan. Being bold enough to state the obvious is not flaming. Make another attack like that again and I will show you flaming.:D If you can't take the heat...

All TGPs and links lists already perform this service by listing sponsors' FHGs and HFSs. Yes, we do this because we get paid for sales produced, but we are the ones funneling the traffic to them. Traffic costs money.

Why would sponsors allow you to hotlink videos and images without a clickable link to their sites? You mentioned that the surfer would have to type in the url. Why not put up the proper links associated the content?

About the yahoo email address. Most of us won't accept submissions from folks with free email addresses. They tend to be cheaters. Most sponsors won't allow an affiliate to sign-up with their program with free email addresses because they tend to be surfers just looking for free access to more porn. A 'real' email addy adds legitimacy and accountability to the person. So, if you want to be taken seriously, act like your serious.

Just incase anyone is confused by tis guys name.

He has no affiliation with the "family" or the resource in any way shape or form.

Green guy is right I used this idea along with the blur on newsgroups and Kazzaa years ago.

GonZo, I'm glad you mentioned that. Looking quick, I did think it was an Oprano thing.

I thought it was an Oprano thing because of the yahoo email addy |couch|



:D

Haha, small brained people.

I give up.. keep the thread giong tho, yall can increase your post counts by 1 or 2 !!!

And yea i understand about the yahoo email.

But fuck i run 3 different business's - im not giong to hand out my real emails to be harvested for mailing lists. I already have a couple of others getting about 30 spam mails a day.

Anyways whatever, give it time guys. Looks like everyone is sheep, so i guess you need someone to follow.

Good-bye then.

(add +1 to my post tally)

I want another post too! Would you hit it?

|jester| |jester| |jester|

Alex

|waves|
+1 for me.

haha.. exactly alex.

yea id hit it :P

Sorry Greenguy i did not see your reply - i thought it was more idea bashing hehe.

You mentioned you used this type of idea with newsgroups back in 1997 - What were your results m8?

I have heard many web masters mention this.. i would be interested to know how it went?

Hey, john0pr0n0...

I've got a sweet Plan for you...
PHASE I:
- I'll invest upwards of $100,000 to build a paysite that will retain members consistently for at least 6 months.
- Next, I'll create an area where anybody and their mother can download exclusive content from the member area for free.
- Then, I'll do something original and encourage every fucking surfer on the net to spam my Original and Exclusive content on Kazzaa, the newsgroups and via email spam!

PHASE II:
????

PHASE III:
HUGE PROFITS!!!

Yes, I am a disciple of the "Underwear Gnomes" business guides.

|jackinthe

Haha, this is some realy fucking funny shit.

One guy makes a comment, then 20 fuckwits come in after and make some more.

You dont even know what i am talking about here.

But hey - Please keep the comments coming - Its an invaluable reference for anyone wanting to know who not to do business with.

Post your name up with your witty comment, show everyone how smart you are!

That just goes to show too how dimwitted some of you people here are.

I mentioned the word kazaa - now its the only thing we are talking about.

keep em coming fellas - i find this quite amusing that small minded people band together like this!

|bananna|

Sounds like an expensive way to get sales to me.

I'm not saying you won't get sales, but I am wondering what kind of ratio is involved.

The closest example in my experience would be niche Yahoo Groups, that send a lot of traffic, but hardly ever show up as the referrer for a sale.

And if the sale is made from a type in direct request, not a referring link, then how would you measure productivity?

Thats a fair comment urb, at least your thinking now!

What i think this is best for, is long term self generating advertising.

A dedicated 100mbit box - 1000GB / month will cost you around 150USD.

Lets say your sample clips are 1MB - thats 1 million clips you can pump out in one month.

Do that for 6 months - Approx cost: 900USD

900 USD..

Now after that - this is the idea - please try to actualy read all of this - not the parts you want to -

PEOPLE WILL BE PASSING YOUR CONTENT AROUND FOR YOU. IT WILL COST NOTHING - YOU WILL PAY NO AFFILL FEE'S - AND YOU WILL HAVE A RECURRING FORM OF SELF RELIANT ADVERTISING.

Cant anyone understand this? Did i step into twilight zone or something?

Not only this - what kinda conversion rate do we need to make our money back. Lets say for arguments sake - those 6 million clips over the 6 months were giving out to individual people - all 6 mil.

What are you charging for your site? Lets say 30 bucks USD

So thats what 30 sales? Who is giong to tell me, you cant pull a conversion rate of 30/6000000 ? If you cant you shouldnt be running a paysite in the first place.

And last but not least - even if you dont pull those 30 sales - your giong to have people passing around, sharing and talking about your content for free, automaticly - which will generate more sales over time.

Now if no one here can see the benefit in that, im talking to a brick walk, and ill leave it now, its not worth my time to explain a SIMPLE marketing strategy...

My reply was more of a shot that this concept is at least 8 years old (probably 10)

There's enough free porn on the internet on pages that have actual ads that people click on as opposed to just paying for bandwidth to give out free movies in the hope that someone will type in your URL.

I read it all and too it in... you silly dill!




















Does this one count to my posts?

Oh by no means is this a new idea. Well i have a few that would intermingle with these, but i do not wish to go into details about that.

Oh well thanks for everyones "advice"

|afro|

I'm open minded to most methods of making sales... I'm also open minded to other people's advice.

I love getting feedback on my idea's - Please dont get me wrong urb.

What i dont like are these warez kiddies running around on these boards, making 2 line comments about things they cant even comprehend, or have any idea what i am actualy talking about.

I would like to see people act like this way within say the sales and marketing industry - they wouldnt last a day, or any other industry for that matter.

But here in porn land - it seems to be the norm - put other people down - make yourself feel better, slander is the way of the day.

If you have constructive feedback - ill read it all happily. Please dont get me wrong - But im sure alot of you know what im talking about - And im sure many of you feel the same way.

I provided a very small amount of information on what i wanted to do - someone picked up on the word KAZAA - and that was it, thats all we were talking about... post after post about kazaa and giving content away like that.....

For example:
AND
AND
AND
AND
AND
Why don't you make the following statement and get this thread over with?
"Anyone who disagrees with me is a small-minded sheep with an inability to comprehend my obvious marketing genius and is only posting to beef up their post count."

Moo. :D Thanks.

People should always watermark their content in every case where it's permitted.

On another note, if I had some marketing idea that I personally believed in and had data to back my presentation, I'd approach some sponsors myself. Some may be willing to test drive it on a small scale.

|goodnight

so i missed it or you didn't say, where does your traffic come from?

anyone here can share videos p2p, we've done it
anyone here can post to newsgroups, done that as well

more details please

My bet is that it's a TGP looking thing that links directly to the movies...and of course had ads on it |couch|

Well... there is an issue... I bet less than 1 of 1000 viewers will actually hit the site they see on watermark (and most viewers will watch at lest 4 videos so you have to count your BW this way) - if you have ever been listed at any TGP like hun or worldsex you already noticed 70k+ hits to your gallery but CTR to sponsor is less than 1% (and we are talknig about banners not movie watermark they have to type in!) and as you are so fucking marketing guru and I strongly belive you also differ hits from sales - with TGP traffic I doubt if it would be less than 1:1500
So... as I count properly..
4mb per user (assuming 1mb per movie clip) * 1000 (assuming 1/1000 will type in) * 1500 (assuming sale ratio 1:1500) makes... uhm... 6000GB per sale?
I don't mind new ideas but I don't really get why are you so rude if anyone disagree...

Yea well look this is kinda my fault then.

My business is idea's - And when i post something like this i try to be careful not to give my whole idea away. Simple good business.

Its not simply me hot linking to your videos on my sites.

It would be a mix of new ways of showing your content to potential customers.

A few examples (not im not giving everything away k thx)

All the File sharing networks - kazaa, limewire, bit torrents, IRC, FTP, Newsgroups ect ect- Here your not giong to pull a good conversion rate. Here what your giong to get is file sharers, who will store your files and pass them around for you for free.

Free sites - These would be places on some free sites, allowing people to directly download them.

DVD'S- You didnt think of this did you? I have deals with some Adult media distrubuters here in Australia - How about an interactive demo of your website, provided with some simple yet effective information about your website? A permanent advertisment for your site sitting in someone's house.

Streaming media - Anyone noticed that people are posting streaming content like things from shooshtime.com ? Setup your video on a site like this, and people will post it up for you, again bringing recurring and free traffic. A half or quarter page blurb on how good your site is should work great, the user has a high chance of reading it while he is waiting for the video to load.

Im sorry if i seem rude and arrogant ( useless warrior is trying to push that point i think :P ) - But fuck, every time i get on these fucking boards, i have to defend myself like this. Im not giong to come here and post my idea's step by step am i, i simply put up some quick information on what i wanted to do, and was willing to discuss my idea's and plans in detail with anyone who was interested in finding new ways to market thier site.

Its a shame these boards cant be more about creating and developing new idea's - rather then about putting opther people's idea's and people jumping on the bandwagon. Im not even talking about me here, i see it all the time, some poor bastard has put alot of work into some idea, then some little kid comes along and bad mouth's it.

Im always very open to suggestions and comments, but this is just rubbish. Some people here have provided some great insight into what i want to do, and how it may work or not work, but sadly alot of people have just jumped on the flaming bandwagon. We all know it happens, lets not even debate that.

To everyone who posted up something inteligent and worthwhile, thanks, its much appreciated. To the people who are just running around making snide comments to anyone they can.. Keep it up guys, if it makes you feel better about your own business, i guess thats the main thing isnt it.
