Id like to add to the fresh content monthly idea, i think that the content should be changed every month, and the content from the previous month should be archived :D

Don't let it worry you, these flamers have no ideas, no suggestions and not5hing positive to offer. Just posting negative posts. The illegal Tube sites must be laughing all the way to the banks.

Even Fletch can't get it and still thinks the magazine and newspapers run themselves like the Internet. That business is primarily concerned with keeping their readers happy, it keeps the circulation high and the ad space sells itself. Lose the readers, you lose the advertisers. Simple logic Fletch missed.

I can see one problem for many. This idea needs a lot of content to work and it has to be good content. A lot of them would see it as a threat to their businesses.

I like the idea and when I get over the cancer I will give it a shot.

You said: "He will build a Dating site section paysites can put into their sites and give to members as part of their membership. If members want to contact other people they sign up at a cut price. Maybe a small charge to send each email, costs need to be worked out. We can advertise on our sites and promotion "Free Dating Site Membership."

So how exactly is that free? It is free to look, no doubt, but not free to actually use. I can say this much. If I joined a porn site and they promised me a free membership to a dating site when I joined then I found out I still had to pay more to actually use that dating site I would be pretty pissed off. This is just another upsell and porn customers have been seeing them for years.
Good point and the reason for the thread. The 1 to 1 on the live cam plug is not a free, it's an upsell at a better than normal price. The free nightly show is free. We can show the adverts of the people looking for dates for free and maybe give some contacts for free. Then we charge a better rate for contacting more or maybe a better than average monthly membership to the dating site. Anyone got a better idea to work it, the dating site has to earn.

The idea is to keep members happy, if we do that they keep coming, keep rebilling and the affiliates are ecstatic and easy to cater to.

Tube surfers who did buy porn have not gone to Tube sites to not spend money. Tube sites would close if that were true. They are there to spend money on webcams, dating sites or paysites like Brazzers. Because they after 10 years paysites running they prefer getting videos from Tubes. We need to win them back. How is the problem because few have any ideas.
