    Free xx min access for paysites - would it work?

    If you give visitors 2 or 10 or 5 minutes free access to your paysites members area or maybe to a smaller second members area without asking for credit card details would that increase sales? Has anybody ever tried it before?

    you mean like:

    "Here you go 10 not 1 FHG and 20 not 3 free movies if you like it then maybe you should signup because there is even more in members area!!!"

    hmm I don't know and you?

      Not really, i was thinking more in the line off "presenting" the members area to the visitor. Let him take a look around, maybe with a system that he can't d/l any vids/pics or whatever.

        I would say "You have to see it for yourself."

        users may be just to lazy to "take a look around"

        maybe better idea is to purchase some review traffic or build small review site alone?

        EDIT: "purchase review traffic" = payed review on some established site

          Don't know about that - I don't know the average porn surfer but i don't think it's the lazy bastard with moms credit card. For some reason i think the average porn surfer (that would pay to enter a site) are mostly people that think before they do, that's why i was thinking this idea in the first place.

            I think it sound like a good ideal.

              lazy was wrong word, I should say "it may be to complicated to decide with simplified members area"
              and with 2, 5, or 10 minutes access - it maybe too much effort to build this access system and to protect it against cheaters

              I think the problem is "tour should sell"
              the tour should show to the surfer what is in members area and what is he suppossed to expect when he signups

              EDIT: sorry for my english but I'm to lazy to take lessons

                Good point but if am working on a site (any site) i always try to get into the porn surfers head, i try to be him and doing that i know i would like to actually see what i would buy, not just the promotion and/or presentation for it. Might be just me though, like i said before, i don't really know the average porn surfer.

                  I know what you mean

                  it should be like test drive when you're buying a new car

                  and as a programmer I can say that this access system isn't really that hard to built

                  maybe there is someone who already tried all this before and knows the results and he can answer your question

                      You know what the effect is? Did it boost up sales?

                          Very nice, if done right that should tease the visitors a whole lot and erase any doubts that the members area blows. I'm guessing the reason so few are doing this is because the members areas blow.
