Tube sites destroyed the adult biz, and continue to do so... more and more every day!
Porn was always recession proof, so don't think the economy is the big issue here - the tube sites have destroyed the online porn biz - period!
Not torrents - not password traders - not the economy. Tube sites simply suck!
Everyone's content is all over the tubes, and new tubes are popping up like fucking cancer.
Here's a new link for you Robbie...

Big percentage is impulse. That's the big percentage that is screwed right now. What I do isn't quite as impulse driven. I've made a dollar or two in this business over the years by NOT going after the impulse guys, but trying to provide stuff that people actually want.
The tshirt wearing whore with a cock up her ass will brand the name of the site.
Your prognosis is 100% true for the big generic "mega-sites" but has no bearing on me at all. Look at my Alexa graph again for CM. It does NOT go down like the rest. I opened the site in 2007. At that point we had a huge spike, and our affiliates had plenty of traffic. But after tube sites went big I did a LOT of shit to keep my money up. I have to. Too many people depend on me. Look again...our traffic has leveled off over the last year. Not went down.
And you are greatly underestimating my creative thoughts for product placement. If it doesn't do anything BUT give me some great comedic moments in the scenes I'll be happy. The better my product is, the more money I make.
A good solo girl site is completely unlike any other porn site. We have FANS, not just members.

why you think a site like Brazzers got that big? They are everywhere, TGPs, tubes, linklists, etc etc. Always trying to get their name out and into peoples heads. You might not agree with their ethics but sure as hell loads of people know about them. They know how to push a site and they are still banking on it if you like it or not.
Same goes for Bang, nasty, and a few others. They know marketing very very well

maybe this is a possibility
what that isn't showing is that that most tubes HOST the galleries, so that graph doesn't show QUALITY of traffic.
brazzers for example before may have been more gallery traffic, with how big they are in tubes that may be showing more hits to the paysite looking to buyThis dog, is dog, a dog, good dog, way dog, to dog, keep dog, an dog, idiot dog, busy dog, for dog, 20 dog, seconds dog!

You didn't explain shit to me. You babbled about "branding bugs" and how you were a genius. I told YOU that it was called product placement and had been used in Hollywood for decades. You were insinuating that we could sell products within the movies. Which to some extent would be true if you own a sybian, lingerie, or dildo company. But you NEVER said a word about using product placement in the way that was suggested by PR_Tom
Sorry folks, but this whole thread is about to go down faster than my TGP's alexa rating because once again Gideon (who is not even in this industry) is going to start explaining to all of us how to run our business.
This was a great thread and I've come away with some great creative ideas. Thanks guys!-Robbie

Tube sites are getting a lot of traffic and many are losing traffic and sales due to it, but why not also go after mobile traffic? Might as well make some $ from that traffic instead of letting another income stream die. There are still many ways to make $ even though the tubes have taken a majority of the traffic.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_of_tubes"Series of tubes" is an analogy used by former United States Senator Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) to describe the Internet in the context of network neutrality.[1] On June 28, 2006, he used this metaphor to criticize a proposed amendment to a committee bill. The amendment would have prohibited Internet service providers such as AT&T and Verizon Communications from charging fees to give some companies higher priority access to their networks or their customers. This metaphor (along with several other odd choices of words) was widely ridiculed as demonstrating Stevens' poor understanding of the Internet, despite being in charge of regulating it.[2]Comment

branding bugs is not product placement to totally different conversations
if your an idiot you would confuse the points about how branding bugs can make a product placement pop and become recognized on a consious level with it being the same thing
newsflash they are not the same thing.
hell in the 5 point i mentioned then at two different spots
what you are talking about as your great creative idea (suprise suprise you took credit for it) was what i had repeatedly talked about as signage
which is the lowest form of product placement
the original clip is gone, and embedding is disabled on this one so i can't put it directly in or get to the start of the clip i orginally showed you guys
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjKCrOWNarg
but fast forward to 7:09 in the 9 + minute clip and you can see the explaination in detail
i personally suggest you watch the entire episode, it a very good laymen explaination of product placement.
even better spend some money and take a real course on q ratio.Last edited by gideongallery; 07-14-2009, 11:47 AM.

The thing that is mind bogglingly stupid about the tube sites is that they are leaving tons of money on the table by not working with the paysites.
They are convinced they can only offer full-length vids and don't work in shorter clips with good linkage back to the paysites.. they would be getting paid for that, and theyd be alot less of a pariah.
I've seen tube sites gets sales- it can and does happen- ratios arent too bad either, especially these days.
BUT only a handful of them do it the right way- the rest just sandwich the video with no links back to the paysite in between an eyesore mess of live cam and dating ads.
The surfer is there to watch vids of his fave star or whatever niche he likes- how much better can a AFF banner do vs a banner to that girl's official site, or a site full of that guy's favorite niche? Not much better really, but they don't do this.. its really dumb.
A nice cleanly designed tube site with 2-8 minute clips linking well back to sponsors and also with some cam/dating stuff can do well, and not dick everyone over.
I like the tube site as a video-delivery medium, lets face it, text link lists are kinda tired.. flv is cool, etc but the way most tube sites are doing it is just frikkin dumbComment

lmfao! Thats so funny about Gore's old quote. my god, he just gets better with age (or weight). But I bet he still can't dance.
I dont think I had any new idea btw, not at all. I remember talking about tgp recip buttons and saying thats why you need a short domain that at least has the vowels in the right place to resemble a real word. Because people may not click, but they may remember. Always be selling (why should closing have all the fun).43-922-863 Shut up and play your guitar.

This is 100% spot on. It should be interesting to see that "Business of Pleasure" thing on ABC this week. I bet when they started that show they were looking for a ratings-boosting-cock-swagger piece about rich pornographers and big-tittied pornstars, but after they researched the story for a bit they found the biz was headed to hell in a handbasket even faster than other sectors. The only thing they probably saw was a bunch of scared people, wondering where the next dollar will come from or looking to exit the biz. The money has to come in from somewhere and as internet porno people - we are at the top of the food chain, if the money is no longer trickling in from the top...where is it going to trickle too? This effects everyone, from production, talent, shooters, agencies -- straight down the line! The really sad part is WE ARE DOING IT TO OURSELVES! All you tube loving idiots need to go die, like yesterday!

fundamentally clueless, there examples of product placement for stuff that was given away for free too.
tv shows do product placements for other tv shows
look at my name is earl
they did a product placement for OC chopper
and intervention
there are tons of examples
signage is the absolute bottom of the barrel
porn has been doing it for years
it current value is 1/18 of a second per second
story line intergration is 1/4 of a second per second.
there are over 50 criteria for determining the value of a product placement using the q ratio metric.
once you understand the fundamentals you can see massive oppertunities in product placement
as long as you don't you keep thinking stupid statements like this one.

I blame the DVD guys for the birth of Tube sites. These DVD studios had no idea about the web (still don't have a fucking clue) and they gave away all their shit for pennies. You can join a dvd site and download movies all day everyday for $19.95 a month. I don't see MASS amounts of Bang Bros content on the tubes. I don't see MASS amounts of Nasty Dollars videos every where. They protected their content. We as webmasters are to blame too. We should have went to a no download policy in members areas, but we were to worried about kissing the surfers asses and now we're paying for it. Cry all you want about tubes. The cat is out of the bag and I don't see any change coming any time soon.

Find me a FL Nasty Dollars video on a tube site. I don't see them. I'm sure there is some but you just don't see the amount you see coming from other programs. The biggest supplier for these tube sites are the DVD studios and they have NO idea why dvd sales are in the shitter.Comment

Yup, it wouldn't surprise me if I found out that the government did this to us. I know that's not true but if only someone had thought of this idea earlier, they could have decimated the entire cluster fuck down to a wad of chewing gum.
Everyone was here thinking that they could hide behind DMCA blah blah blah... guess what? Fuck you.
"You work for me now bitch. Work hard, sweat. Sweat fucking hard loser. Use your kids college fund to make me my cake cunt. I will steal it. I will steal it all for $19,95.

Well like I said you don't see mass amounts from them on tubes. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't mind a few videos of theirs on tube sites. They might be the ones uploading them. I hardly see anything from them.Comment
