    Stop giving away free hardcore

    does anyone else feel that we should limit what is out there for free to softcore and other non-hardcore shots?

    tony404 and I were chatting about this and hopefully he will chime in too, but we both feel like there is WAY too much shit out there for free....certain people actually mentioned when they redid their tours to not include hardcore, the signups increased

    i just want some feelings and opinions on this matter

    I have actually stopped giving away all hardcore content for our affiliates and our galleries will no longer show hardcore

          yep I agree 100%. We give the surfer enough to get off and get out. and some people don't realize that a man who just busted a nut isn't going for the visa he's reaching for a tissue.

                  Let's say 90% of webmasters agree with you, and they all stop making galleries with explicit hardcore. The other 10% will make a killing, and become the next Hun. Good idea, but unfortunately impractical in today's game.

                    no shit, if I was a surfer of porn, i would NEVER buy a fucking membership....there is WAY too much out there for free to waste my money even paying for something

                    i know it is impossible to even consider everyone stop giving the "good stuff" away for free....but if everyone that owned a paysite or sponsor program on this board did it, that would make one hell of an impact

                      It is pretty rare to find movies that aren't hardcore,and you have to have updates

                          You're right, it would have a HUGE impact. Those sponsors wouldn't get shit for traffic anymore.

                                actually, i have chatted with people that have changed the hardcore to softcore on the galleries and their tour is all softcore or implied hardcore...and their sales have gone up in the long term with the same traffic

                                it is all right to be scared of something new, but when your unknowledgable about the outcome of something you have not tried you end up looking unintelligent

                                    The only way it would work is if everyone had the same mindset. I agree totally with what you are saying though. But you have some people who will disagree and won't do it. A surfer left with a hard dick is more apt to pull out a credit card than one that just busted his nut. It would be a great thing for signups if that was to happen industry wide but it won't. The biggest rule of thumb with sales is always leave the customer with their tongue hanging out dying to get their hands on your product. That is with ANYTHING you are selling. If they have already busted their nut then the magic is over.

                                      That's lovely. Are you going to be able to convince all of your affiliates and new affiliates the same thing? First thing they'll say "you don't have any hardcore content, what the fuck?" Now I don't know about your sites, but all of ours are hardcore. The paysites are hardcore. The content is hardcore. We don't have softcore content.

                                      So what are you suggesting? I censor all of the images? That may work great on the tours, I might even test it out. But the galleries? That isn't going to fly. TGP owners aren't going to list hosted galleries or submitted galleries that are censored. If you happen to know the odd couple who do, please let me know so I can start submitting galleries to their huge TGPs.

                                      I don't look unintelligent, I look realistic. Things would be a lot better without free porn period. Why don't you chase that pipe dream?

                                          I was thinking the same thing. I dont show any hard core on tour
                                          and it does not seem to stop people from joining..

                                              Now Jace, if you DO have softcore content I'm sure your idea may definitely have its benefits. But I was asking how I could do something like that with our sites, then you insulted me. Thanks sweetie.

                                                see alot of mindset here is people think they need to tgp's to make money and garner traffic, fuck that. I gain traffic by my own standards and dont need to follow rules set forth by tgp's. Think outside the box on traffic generation and stop thinking "galleries" all the fuckin time

I gain traffic by my own standards and dont need to follow rules set forth by tgp's. Think outside the box on traffic generation and stop thinking "galleries" all the fuckin time
                                                      exactly right, no one ever made you or anyone else submit to a TGP.

                                                          .. maybe beeing the "next Hun" with 1 zillion bookmarked/returning freeloaders that gets off from all the free hardcorecontent and not buying memberships isn't that much worth anyhow?

                                                          Or is loosing sales over gained (currently) freeloading bookmarkers/returning visitors worth it cause of his future value .. possible future sales from making him interested in something much better then what's free on the site?

                                                          In that case whatever free porn is available out there, you just gotta sell something harder/longer/better?

                                                          Just thinking out loud.

                                                                        i just want some feelings and opinions on this matter

                                                                        I have actually stopped giving away all hardcore content for our affiliates and our galleries will no longer show hardcore
                                                                        WE were just talking about this about a week or so ago as well. When I had my Teen site redone, we didn't put one spec of hardcore on it anywhere on the tour, made the tour smaller and it went immediately from a 1:575 (in that area) to a 1:150 ratio..... and I HAVE to believe this is exactly why it had such a drastic ratio change.

                                                                        We are having several of our tours redone and we have already set in place to do this very thing.

                                                                        Who the hell wants to buy it when they already got their rocks off ten times by the time they get to the join pages?

                                                                        We're cleaning up our sites too........ so you aren't the only one doing this...... I support this mindset 200%

                                                                                  here is the way I see it...

                                                                                  those of you that say "I only have hardcore content"....what your telling me is that from picture #1 to picture #120 there is a hard dick with vagina in EVERY SINGLE PICTURE???? wow, no tease shots or leading shots up to the sex??? i doubt that seriously

                                                                                  why not take all the super hot shots that lead up to the sex and use them for the galleries? nothing like some serious teasing to get a surfer all revved up

                                                                                  NEVER censor your images, that just looks like absolute shit to have a pixelated hardcore scene...just use the pics leading up to that hardcore scene

                                                                                  and as for movies....when I buy or shoot content I know there is at least 5-8 minutes of total time that is non-hardcore action....use that for promo or teaser vids outside the members area.

                                                                                  i am just rambiling really about shit on my mind....sorry if I insulted or offended anyone (LOL)

                                                                                  and for those on here dogging the idea, can you show me where you have tried this option and with what paysites this was with? cause I have a feeling that most of you are just tgp dudes scared that sponsors actually might try this....

                                                                                  from those that have tried this, glad to see that your ratios have gotten better....i have heard this numerous times!

                                                                                              Stop giving away everything for free, then you will learn what real money is about. Samples are ok, but 10,000 sets / day is kind of crazy.

                                                                                              But anyway I don't really care what any of you do. I will always adapt to whatever the current method of making money is
