Straight affiliates look at conversions of 1:500 and go whoa that site converts great! When in reality, if they worked with some of the smaller gay owned and operated affiliate programs, they'd be getting conversions of somewhere around 1:100 with the same traffic.

Unlike straight porn where what the guy looks like doesn't matter, in gay porn the man's looks ARE the number one priority. And no, gay guys don't like ugly men anymore than straight guys like ugly women....


Ok just something I noticed as a breeder making gay galleries. Ratio's and sign ups seem so much better when it is a gallery with ugly guys as to good looking guys. Then again...I sometimes notice the same with a hetero gallery with ugly girls...
Very nice thread btw.
