    Please Explain This To Me ...Use of the word "FEEDS"

    Ok is it me, something i have never got: The use of the word in selling the surfer : REALITY FEEDS...OR LESBIAN FEEDS...ETC.

    The word "feed" has not a thing to do with "movie" or "porn"....so why? I think its more a word that is used in the "behind the scenes" part of speaking about our biz, not as a selling point for a surfer..."feed" wtf is a feed...so i looked it up.


    Definitions of feed on the Web:

    * provide as food; "Feed the guests the nuts"
    * give food to; "Feed the starving children in India"; "don't give the child this tough meat"
    * feed into; supply; "Her success feeds her vanity"
    * introduce continuously; "feed carrots into a food processor"
    * support or promote; "His admiration fed her vanity"
    * take in food; used of animals only; "This dog doesn't eat certain kinds of meat"; "What do whales eat?"
    * serve as food for; be the food for; "This dish feeds six"
    * run: move along, of liquids; "Water flowed into the cave"; "the Missouri feeds into the Mississippi"
    * prey: profit from in an exploitatory manner; "He feeds on her insecurity"
    * gratify; "feed one's eyes on a gorgeous view"
    * food for domestic livestock
    * fertilize: provide with fertilizers or add nutrients to; "We should fertilize soil if we want to grow healthy plants"

    No mention of porn movies there...lol

    There are phrases/words I would never present to the surfer. Pic(s) tops the list, and feeds would have to rank up there.

            i guess its something that was picked up from mainstream television (i.e satellite feed, etc) but I think now adays its more just a B2B term within our industry to represent a set of streaming or digitally delivered content

                Streaming (live) video is better for SE puposes IMHO.

                  The term feed has become pretty common place, especially among the more savvy surfers used to news feeds, sports feeds, whatever. It's a regularly updated "list" of the newest porn available. Shit, most browsers now have the ability to add feeds from sites that offer them.

                  If you were a surfer wouldn't you want the latest feed of Raven Riley's newest content(for ex.)?

                    BINGO!

                    And it's poor marketing when presented to surfers as such.

                    Don't talk to them like "they know" the porn business ... tantalize them with words that get them horny!

                    Describe the content not as a feed or "plug-in" ... tell them what they'll see

                      i hear you BUT marketing should be directed at "pushing a surfer's button"

                      between you and me - "regularly updated "list" of the newest porn available." just sounds better than RSS FEED

                          To be honest, when I write, I write as much for the SE as I do the surfer, so I am going to use a lot hotter, keyword rich text than "the latest feed of Raven Riley's newest content."

                          I would give an example, but I don't work for free.

                                    I'm not dogging you - I just think that using the word feed isn't a good term for marketing at all ... it's not sexy - unless you tell sufers if they join that the models will visit them - suck them dry and feed em' a sammich

                                      Well, I will have goodgirl with me, and we go play almost every time I come to Indiana, so she has started to get into it. In fact, she commented that I need to take some time to help her learn more, so blackjack is definitely on the itinerary.

                                            You came out pretty well ahead last time we played even tho it was a small stakes table. I taught my gf how to play on her first $100 and she broke even. Not bad for a 'virgin'.

                                                I didn't take it personally or think you were dogging me, but it is quickly becoming a bigger and bigger buzz word.
