gay.xxx is a fascinating case study. Corbin Fisher shelled out a half of a million dollars for a ?premium? domain name. They then brought together the highest quality content from the gay industry?s five best producers?assembled together in one place for the very first time. They then invested in the development of a new micro-payment system that gives consumers greater choice at lower prices. They then promoted and advertised the site?s launch, hosting an enormous launch party at a nightclub in Las Vegas.

After that ENORMOUS investment, gay.xxx has an Alexa ranking of 640,000. Moreover, I have heard from parties involved that sales can literally be counted on two hands.

Moreover, for reasons I simply can?t understand, ALL of their stats have dropped in the last month?since the launch of search.xxx.

If true, not surprising. On a side note, amazing to see how many companies do the "big party in Vegas" type of things before even launching. Spend all that money on a party, then go belly up, i.e. cammansion.com (now just a whitelabel after all that money spent on pre-promotion).
