Special Ed, one thing I did notice about some of your paysites is that a few of the tours could use a face-lift. That might be more effective than adding trials. Also, I haven't actually seen the inside of your sites, but from what I read, some of your smaller sites seem to rely a little bit on third party content, which would make adding trials pointless, because it would take an hour or two on cable to download the entire members area, and the more savvy surfers have seen stuff like pluginfeeds already on other paysites, so that won't make them stay. And if the surfer came in looking for fem dom stuff, then other bonus sites unrelated to that niche may not hold their interest.

Thanks Halfdeck...great points. Like Spookyx said, we are in the midst of adding multiple tours to our current paysites...we would like to catch up on our current promotional tools inventory before we press onto new projects. Although we currently have 3 projects pending...lol. It never seems to stop, and the work just piles up...thanks again for you input
So basically I was correct on the way I felt about trials and the way it would reflect our business model
