Someone posted against me when I called Weg a "major porn company."

02-10-2006, 12:45 PM

Do you think Weg is a major porn company?

In my thread yesterday, someone posted that the term "major porn company" is reserved for Vivid and Hustler.

I found his post intriguing. Nothing personal and I harbor no ill-will with the thread, however, it sincerely raised my curiosity.

Do you guys think Weg is small? You think we are top 10 in anything?

What are the assumptions? What makes a porn company a major one?

This isn't a thread about bashing anyone, quite the contrary.

You didn't call weg a major porn company, but a major porn CORPORATION. In my mind, there's a difference.

I agree with that...If WEG was a major porn company it would have distribution and dvd's being released

WEG is a major player in the internet porn game though, they are huge

I would probably consider you a major Internet marketing company before a major porn company. When I think of porn companies I think of Hustler and such.

And I really wouldn't have the slightest idea as to whether or not you are indeed a major Internet marketing company.

is wegcash in the top 10 of adult affiliate programs on the web?

my guess would be - no , but then again, how can i know your exact stats?

oh and I agree, major porn company sounds like Hustler but the web is different and the companies unknown to the general public make more often money online than the huge offline porn brands

I don't use ICQ anymore.

You can't know. I can't disclose. Same old song and dance I suppose.

However, I love hearing the interprettations. I am on the fence with this. I am going to let this thread ride and then put in my two cents.

I think a lot of people talk out of their asses.

It's a lot like when you were a kid and you'd try to one-up each other in social situations.

Often people will post with how they visualize portraying themselves as their motivation regardless of who they're talking to or in what context it's in.

Getting some distribution deals if you have good content is a peice of cake... allthought, you'd be surprised how little money per movie there actually is on the table.

I perceive weg as a medium + sized affiliate program... I don't think you guys are close to the top 10 yet... so many affiliates program nowdays

I think to qualify as a "major" porn company you need average consumers brand name recognition.

Does WEG have any particular site that if you asked say 100 porn consumers; more than 25 would recognize by name?
(I am fairly sure WEG itself would not qualify, not sure about any sites under its ownership).

That guy was probably thinking in terms of content production. His example of Vivid and Hustler are two of the bigger outfits for production studios, not affiliate programs. I would say WEG is among the bigger outfits in terms of traffic though.

Knowing JL and Zimm, they would rather be on the low down and be known a as a minor company.

Major companies have targets on there backs.

Good post.

Well, I will neither deny nor confirm that one, however, it should be known that marketing strategy does not include attempting to paint our program with any "financial-success" brush.

This post was one to see what people think. And it is HIGHLY interesting.

Looking forward to seeing you and Greg in Costa Rica.

you have to also take into consideration, Vivid and Hustler have HUGE affiliate programs, so they actually are HUGE porn companies as a whole

Tough question to answer for so many reasons, however, this is a great perspective.

I would have to say in terms of brand, no, we do not. However, in terms of traffic, yes, absolutely we do.

This thread could get long.

Have we thought about it? Yes.

Have we made motions? Not so much.

We are getting heavily involved with content right now. In the past, we purchased a lot of content (as many producers know). However, now we are contracting more custom shoots and investigating becoming a bit more intimate with it (shooting closer to home).

That said, will the idea hit the table again? Of course.

But the business is tough. You said that yourself. Right now, I can build a site for Weg and get major signups day one. Tough to argue with success, but on the same token, not smart to shy away from expansion.

When I think Major...I think Household Name...Vivid, Hustler, Playboy, Penthouse...and then maybe stuff like Wicked, Redlight, Ananabolic...Major that they are in every facet of the industry; print, tv, internet, video...you know what I mean...or lay some claim...like Redlight selling Paris Hilton Videos..I guess it is more of Name thing...When somebody says "Player"...i often think of the guys online who can generate a huge sum of money from little investment..So how bout going back and saying " from a Player in the Online Porn industry" ;) He HE.

I think the internet marketing part of Weg is way stronger than Hustler or Vivid. But the brand names are way stronger than any sites that Weg has. But with saying that, I wonder who has the most traffic?

Great answer, and as you know, we do a lot of business with both of those companies, I hope no one thinks I am drawing comparisons. I am looking for perception mostly.

I work in an office, I lose touch.

Less about Weg, more about all large adult Web companies. Are they large? Do you have to have the brand?

You catch my drift.....

I would term a number of affiliate programs "large porn companies," would I be wrong for that?

as long as bank accounts are happy who cares what a bunch of board whores think? to really break it down. people worry about other peoples money too much in this biz. if more concentrated those energies on making more of their own money, you wouldn't see any threads about "so and so making what"

2cents

to clarify board whores. they are most of the population posting here. the ones who cause trouble and make waves. not those that actually serve a true purpose.
