    Update system for member areas

    I had a thought... Im not sure if anyone has done this or is doing this, but it seems like a good idea. Please give me your opinions on this. pros, cons.

    Say you are just starting a brand new site with 16 episodes in the member area and updating with a new episode every week.

    In this case, you would be adding a 17th episode after 1 week, 18th episode in 2 weeks and so on... Therefor, if someone were to signup for the site 4 months after it opens, they are going to see 32 episodes in the member area. Where the guy who signed up the first week open only saw 16 episodes.

    Why not just have a system that makes the surfers/members see the same 1-16 episodes no matter when they signup. Then 1 week later #17 is available, week 2 #18, and so on...

    So now, if member A signs up today, in 4 months he see's 32 episodes. When member B signups up in 4 months, he only sees 16 episodes. It's like a linear process, one members user/pass will show diff amounts of content in the member area when you login.

    If nothing else, this would be great for sites with limited updates. Say you only have 50 scenes for your site, you start with 16... in 34 weeks you are going to run out of updates. So your later members are going to think you gave up on updating. Whereas with this method, you would be good to go for 34 weeks of updates no matter when a member signed up. That's 8 months of updates to keep your surfer happy. Not many last that long anyhow.



    Sorry soooo looooooong~!

      This can be done in adultwebware's software already, been that way for some time.

                              Intresting idea, but are you going to update the tour with the newest content. If i was a sufer and i saw a hot ass trailer on the tour, and it's not in the members area yet I would be pissed.

                                      wish I had known that, already went with sitedepth (which I do love, but this feature sounds nice)....

                                      very misleading on the site

                                          Well, this feature was removed because nobody really used this kind of rotation (it was named as "per users rotation"). If you really want this feature, we might consider adding this feature back.

                                          Yes, we are installing for our Clients only, and cannot accept new ones until the official release, sorry about that.

                                              That is a great idea! I get around the problem by simply rotating out old content when I add new stuff. I throw them some archives now and then, and they seem to be happy.

                                                  Why would you even consider doing something like this?
                                                  It seems like a horrible idea.

                                                  Who do you think is going to likely stay past the trial period - the guys who logs in and see 16 episodes, or the guy who logs in and see 32 episodes?

                                                  Seems like a no brainer to me.

                                                  edit - And if you only film a site and cap it at 50 episodes, yet plan to keep the site around forever, then you're making a bad decision.

                                                  The more quality content you can offer, the better. PERIOD.

                                                              There's a much smaller chance of a surfer 'sucking a site dry' with less content than there is with more content. So if the surfer doesn't suck the site dry within the trial, then there's a great chance they'll convert to full membership.

                                                              It's all theoretical, but it makes perfect sense. Only a test would let you know for certain... however if the software is already available for this - why aren't bigger, better sponsors using it if it's so effective?

                                                              Check out Nasty's model. They're the top reality sponsor around, and they offer members ALL the content up front, while also making it clear about the contant updates of quality content.

                                                              Still seems like a no brainer to me. However I do see the problem with a person signing up for a trial, grabbing as much content as they can during that period, cancelling, and repeating the process until the site is "sucked dry." And honestly, there's no good way around it, unless you use DRM, but surfers hate that.

                                                              I think that the opportunity cost of these trial-only surfers is well worth it to increase the overall conversion rate from trial to monthly.

What is offered by updatem was named "per-user rotation" which was removed from AW last december to to lack of use. That kind of rotation is really not that good as "real stack rotation"

                                                                  Most paysites driven on adultwebware are automatically updated that way. You can also add real new content which will be mixed with that rotation automatically, or use manually scheduled updates. That is the most used feature in AW.

                                                                  Let me know what is your choice for content updates. I have spoken with many paysite owners and not many of them liked the idea for per-user rotation (none of them, to be exact).

                                                                      But to mention about per users automatic updates, let's imagine the following situation:

                                                                      3. he stands for 2nd week, say 32 gals shown
                                                                      ..

This would offer a discount to signup again and when they signed up again, the system would remember them and would display all the episodes/updates they wouldve got had they stayed.

                                                                                  As for the 16 vs. 32 thing.... I agree, 32 is better. But it's almost like the member area would be brand new to every person who signed up. Our retention is insane right now and we are fairly new, which leads me to believe that it doesnt make that big of a difference.

                                                                                  fuck 16, maybe i will start with 32 in there. then impliment the system.

                                                                                          That is not a problem with this if you would rotate content/episodes equally for all members, not individually per each member. For example always show 70-80% of content and the other 30-20% add as "fresh updates". In that case you can also rotate episodes on tours as well, with AdultWebware v4.0, i.e. each episode may have own part on tours too and they are all online/offline simultaneously.

What is offered by updatem was named "per-user rotation" which was removed from AW last december to to lack of use. That kind of rotation is really not that good as "real stack rotation"

                                                                                                  Most paysites driven on adultwebware are automatically updated that way. You can also add real new content which will be mixed with that rotation automatically, or use manually scheduled updates. That is the most used feature in AW.

                                                                                                  Let me know what is your choice for content updates. I have spoken with many paysite owners and not many of them liked the idea for per-user rotation (none of them, to be exact).

                                                                                                  _

Due to the nature of my main site, the update feature per user login/week would work out well. However I can see how for most sites it would not really be beneficial. To each their own I suppose.

                                                                                                  I do however like your product, and would check it out more in the future.

                                                                                                      It seems like a horrible idea.

                                                                                                      Who do you think is going to likely stay past the trial period - the guys who logs in and see 16 episodes, or the guy who logs in and see 32 episodes?

                                                                                                      Seems like a no brainer to me.

                                                                                                      1. At this point we are not offering trials and are rebilling at >60%.

                                                                                                      2. We are in the unique position when we have 50-75 exclusive episodes for most of our sites, so starting a member with 32 would still leave them 25-30 weeks of updates. In some cases more.

                                                                                                      3. If you throw it all out there at once, a member has nothing to look forward to and I think by showing what is coming up in the weeks to follow will aid with retention.

                                                                                                      Like I said - I'm not 100% sold that this is the way to do it, but we are discussing it.

                                                                                                                  1. At this point we are not offering trials and are rebilling at >60%.

                                                                                                                  2. We are in the unique position when we have 50-75 exclusive episodes for most of our sites, so starting a member with 32 would still leave them 25-30 weeks of updates. In some cases more.

                                                                                                                  3. If you throw it all out there at once, a member has nothing to look forward to and I think by showing what is coming up in the weeks to follow will aid with retention.

                                                                                                                  Like I said - I'm not 100% sold that this is the way to do it, but we are discussing it.

                                                                                                                  hey you guys already have 50-75 episodes in the member area already for all your site?

Unless you're going to update frequently ( at least daily ) anyway.

                                                                                                                              1. Imagine adding urls to each gallery you have in updatem (if you have at least 300, but usually there's 900+ galleries on average). +If each gallery has more than 1 page?

                                                                                                                              In adultwebware this is done automatically, no need to make a list og galleries you need to place in rotation. But any kind of custom rotation is possible at the same time (for example, rotate brunettes pictures with 3 new gallery each day, lesbians -- only 1 each 3 days, videos -- 1 video each 2 days, etc).

                                                                                                                              2. As I've said above, that kind of rotation - individual rotation per member - is useless. At least nobody from our clients with 250+ paysites in total used per-user rotation. The arguments are listed above.

                                                                                                                              Wondering if anyone using updatem at all.

                                                                                                                                  1. At this point we are not offering trials and are rebilling at >60%.

                                                                                                                                  2. We are in the unique position when we have 50-75 exclusive episodes for most of our sites, so starting a member with 32 would still leave them 25-30 weeks of updates. In some cases more.

                                                                                                                                  3. If you throw it all out there at once, a member has nothing to look forward to and I think by showing what is coming up in the weeks to follow will aid with retention.

                                                                                                                                  Like I said - I'm not 100% sold that this is the way to do it, but we are discussing it.
                                                                                                                                  Well, in this case that would be a wise point to show like 40 exclusive episodes to all members (if no trials there), then add 1-2 episodes per week, for example. Show them as updates on tours to increase signups ratio. You can also shoot some new episodes and upload them, they will be placed on the top of updates queue.

                                                                                                                                  That would make you sure that your site is always updated in months in advance (17-35 weeks in our case). So you can concentrate on promotions and new content shoots etc.

What is offered by updatem was named "per-user rotation" which was removed from AW last december to to lack of use. That kind of rotation is really not that good as

                                                                                                                                          Actually we added the option to allow content/updates to 'stack' while the member has not logged in as well, and the updates are still per-user... there are a few new features not reported on the site yet ;)

                                                                                                                                          But Updatem is not our primary project...it's just one of our old tools that we used to use & decided to revamp and recode it in Php/Mysql for public consumption.

                                                                                                                                          That in mind... eventually (sooner than later) we'll be releasing it as open-source or something like our other scripts so people can play with it more

As I've said above, that kind of rotation - individual rotation per member - is useless. At least nobody from our clients with 250+ paysites in total used per-user rotation. The arguments are listed above.

                                                                                                                                                  what about when you update your tour with newer content and they cant view it once they signup?
                                                                                                                                                  Updatem has a setting to show unseen updates to your members first, (or you can just have it follow the path).

                                                                                                                                                  You can rearrange the update path/sequence any time you like.

                                                                                                                                                  So new members would see the newer content, and old members would gain access to the newer "new content" before the unseen content that was pushed ahead (hope that made sense).


                                                                                                                                                  As far as all this Updatem bashing from AWW goes...

                                                                                                                                                  I've already addressed AWW in another thread on these same issues... but apparently, with their upcoming release of AWW4.0, he just wants to trash the product and suggest that it has no purpose in the market.

                                                                                                                                                  I've explained to him before - Updatem was never meant to go head to head with the likes of AWW, ContentGod, MAS etc... because it is not a content manager.

                                                                                                                                                  I guess he just feels threatened that Updatem is always brought up (with praise) in threads like these.


                                                                                                                                                  Anyway, think of it more as a simplified Update Manager and not a content manager. If you want a something to build galleries for you, try Awiz + Updatem or Aconman+Updatem, or go with a complete solution like AWW, Content God or MAS if you have the budget for that.
