Go start a torrent site with samples only and see how popular it gets   no one will come back to your site, they don't want to see samples they want to see full site rips.
So what is your answer is to find a way to ride this wave ? What are your suggestions? to provide samples on torrent sites ? to start your own torrent site with samples ??
Here let me hold your hand and walk you through it. Do a search for bangbus on a torrent site. Oh look it is sticky's bangbus sample clip 30 seconds long, oh look the next 100 results are more bangbus clips 30 MINUTES long.... hmmm what should I do. I am on a torrent site so chances are I am looking for something for free. Do i watch the 30 second sample and signup to that site and pay to watch the rest of the videos, or do i download the next 100, 30 minute videos and watch them for free... hmm tough decission
So what is your "out the box " thinking Sticky? please share before i put your dumb ass back on ignore.
Please educate us, you have learned so much in your 1 year in adult. Please tell us these out the box ideas. Considering torrents have been around for a while and NO ONE has thought of an out the box idea to deal with them, i can't wait to hear what your solution is.
Or do you think it is just cool to make it sound like we are all stupid, you have the answers but we need to figure it out for ourselves. you dumb ass. |
I think what sticky is getting at (and I find it somewhat sad to see occuring with more and more people around here) is that the general consensus is the old, "If you can't beat em, join em" syndrome. Suck whatever traffic you can from them while they steal your product, but here is the problem...
Torrent sites convert because if the sheer volume of traffic for the most part (that and the fact that most people will leave a page open and eat cookies, take a piss, come back, check download progress, rinse & repeat or continually surf the site looking for more freebies while more ads are slammed into their faces).
Torrent based sites do not STEAL AFF/DATINGGOLD/whatever site's content. So they advertise there out of sheer volume. Obviusly they can convert the traffic and so can't their affiliates otherwise (DUH) nobody would spend the advertising dollars.
What they are in essence doing is taking EVERYONE's content that does NOT advertise there such as Pl*yb*y, BangBros, etc. and use that as their sales tools.
It's like Paysite A that in their TOS says you may not use their content to promote any other site other than the one whose content you are using. Like taking a bangbros video set, making a gallery and submitting it to the hun with an entrance link to iFriends. How would BangBros feels about that? Once they found out, do you think they would be happy?
It's just a fucking loophole. It fucking genius and it's fucking wrong at the same time.
