    Sex.com - Bidding for Traffic

    Have any of you used Sex.com for buying traffic? I met with Gary today, owner of Sex.com, and he showed me how Sex.com works. I can say, it is quite interesting.

    Most of their traffic is from type ins for sex.com and major search engines that use their results like altavista. They have about 600 keywords that people either type in or click on through their search, then the search results display.

    The Top-10 result spots can all be bid on and they generally sell between $.03-$.15 per click through. The setup is a little different than normal search engines and traffic trading, but the concept seems to work very well.

    Needless to say, I thought it was quite interesting, so I was curious to see if any of you have tried it out?

    Just thought I'd bring it up and see what you guys thought.

                      Thanks for the input Nbritte, that is all I was asking.

                      Hey baddog, shut your cum dumpster, because you got the wrong guy! Gary is way cool and you obviously don't know wtf you are talking about. He's the one who registered the site, not the one who stole it. Your an idiot.......

                      As for what we where talking about, I thought it was cool that you bid for clicks on Sex.com, the most common type in with major search engine traffic. After seeing what Sex.com does, I think you all should at least drop $100 and give it a try. Right now it is a steal because the idea is new and not to many people know they can bid for targted click throughs for as little as $.03 at Sex.com. Not to mention, bidding against other webmasters should provide you with some entertainment.

                      Just my $.02

                        clickpimp, is sex.com working for people? What's the deal? baddog has his useless opinion, but what's up from the inside? Is sex.com a good deal for webmasters?

                              I haven't tried them yet but may well do in the near future. I've heard mixed reports though and at least a couple have lost more than they made.

                                If I had an adult site, I'd at least give it a try. Most of you guys have $100 to gamble.

                                    Jason:

                                    Please check your email and ICQ. I am a Cologroup customer and have left you ICQ messages, emails and a support ticket. I see by your response on this board that you are around, and yet my customer questions remain unanswered. Is this now the best way to get ahold of you?

                                    Thank you.

                                      That traffic is a waste of money. SE traffic is no different then tgp, toplist, or any other type of traffic. Just because a surfer went to a se and typed in a word doesnt make him smarter or dumber then anyone else. Actually with all the tgp/s using those damm bull shit trade and CJ scripts now and blind links its safer to surf by using a SE then by getting jerked around. All traffic is the same a surfer can arrive at your site via SE or bookmark or anyother way and he is still the same person.....
                                      Just my 2 cents.

                                          Sex.com has decent traffic. Its cost effective and reliable. On the downside it is not as easy to manage a large campaign with them as with overture or findwhat.

                                            Yes, i think baddog knows what he is talking about dude.


                                            We have bought the traffic before, Its not that good and it is was a trickle.We have bought from the webmaster page to the surfer page and just didnt feel it was worth it.

                                                ok, gimmie you hand, i'll personally walk you through any size campaign you need - i'm not afraid. also, the the management tools are very simple these days, and traffic is growing at a very fast pace.

                                                further, sex.com's ppc is usually 1/2 of overture, and your money goes a lot further with much more targeted traffic.

                                                bout a dime's worth i'd say ...

Just because a surfer went to a se and typed in a word doesnt make him smarter or dumber then anyone else. Actually with all the tgp/s using those damm bull shit trade and CJ scripts now and blind links its safer to surf by using a SE then by getting jerked around. All traffic is the same a surfer can arrive at your site via SE or bookmark or anyother way and he is still the same person.....
                                                    Just my 2 cents.
                                                    except for that 'wast of money' part , all very true. surfer's do come to your site a variety of ways that are IQ independant.

                                                    or if advertising on sex.com is not your thang, get a sex.com search box on your site(s), split the ppc $, and see for yourself how we both do ...

                                                          Dude, you are not reading what I am saying. I have nothing against Gary at all.

                                                          Let me clear this up, Gary's last name is Kremen, I was speaking of Steve Cohen who is the guy that ripped off Sex.com from Gary. Cohen then paid $30,000 to be placed under house arrest in Tiajuana.

                                                          I was responding to boneprone and payrollpete's comments about Cohen when I made my initial post "that guy cracks me up, paid $30,000 to be placed under house arrest. now is under protective custody of the Federales."

                                                          Please pay attention

                                                              Yeah, well I would appreciate it if you would not accuse me of slamming people and companies that I am actually actively working to help. Makes me look like a two-faced jerk, which I am not.

                                                              I can be a jerk at times, to be sure, but I am never two-faced about it.

                                                                I got thrown off by a couple things on the post, it was just a mix up. The post was originally about Sex.com and I mentioned I met with Gary. I was just trying to let people know about the advertising.

                                                                Then Cohen gets brought up,

                                                                That Cohen Guy was just over for lunch the other day.
                                                                You talk about Cohen, but Gary had been brought up as well, so It was not clear who this was pointed at->

                                                                that guy cracks me up, paid $30,000 to be placed under house arrest. now is under protective custody of the Federales.
                                                                I made a comment about your post and then you put up this

                                                                ummm, dickhead, I was talking about Cohen. I was at Gary's house last Saturday, and even have 2 sex.com e-mail addresses. I know quite well who is who, and what is what.
                                                                Then Moose chimes in whcih threw me off because he says you know what you are talking about, and goe son to say the advertising is not good.->

                                                                Yes, i think baddog knows what he is talking about dude.

                                                                We have bought the traffic before, Its not that good and it is was a trickle.We have bought from the webmaster page to the surfer page and just didnt feel it was worth it.

                                                                I don't know, Whatever, its all good! I'll post the party pics today.

                                                                      Agreed, they have the name and people enter it in, but they need to get the word out. I think what they do is simlar to Ebay in that many of us thought the idea was stupid in the begginning, but now we all use it and think it is great.

                                                                      The thing I found most interesting was the fact that the webmasters set the pricing on the advertising. So if the click throughs are not worth what is being paid, the price will go down. Just like ebay, how you bid on items, you bid against other webmasters for the click throughs.

                                                                      I think ClickPimp should write up a powerpoint or something to send to people interested in sex.com. It took Gary explaining to me what it is they do to realize how it works.

                                                                      So keep that in mind, since a lot of people do not know about sex.com right now, the click throughs are undervalued and you can get them at a steal price. Once everyone finds out about it and understands it, you'll have to pay more.

                                                                        if you have had a bad experience, it may be worth another look, but by all means go with your gut until proven otherwise. we simply want to work with the best, and will do our best to get there and drive your (and our) profits up.
