I then looked at their sites and understood why they are so desperate to sign up webmasters on a continual basis. Basically they suck. This is from the tours.
The Amateur sites had porn stars in them, well girls that looked like pornstars and the one amateur I saw was rubbish.
The teen sites had girls clearly over 21 and not shot in the teen mold. Putting a 24 year old in pig tails no longer fools anyone.
The Lesbian sites were full of magazine content when the girls were not allowed to touch each other. As was the boy-girl porn sites.
Some of the content on the tours was ours, from
www.bargainbasementcontent.com. Content never intended to be for tours or front line converting content and a lot was from people who are supplying even less quality.
The over all effect was that this site is just rehashing old content and throwing traffic at it as fast as it can. They obviously spend a fortune on the traffic and little to nothing on content to convert and retain that traffic.
How much more would they make by using the same marketing skills sending it to sites with fresh and good content?
