BenPOF · 01-27-2012, 10:26 AM

Hey guys,

Just wanted to come on here to see if I could help any of you adult guys expand your business into mainstream

Not gonna throw up a pitch on here cuz I hate that shit too! I've been at POF for well over 2 years now and am considered the absolute authority on all things related to advertising on POF. Marina over at sexsearch.com suggested I come hang out so here I am!

My advertising blog is here (includes GANGSTER information/case studies/tips): blog.ads.pof.com - all content here is free for you to check out.

Mostly, I'm just looking forward to meeting with y'all and making some new people from a different side of the industry. If there is any interest in advertising with us, I'll post some info but not if it's uninvited.

Cheers,

Ben

Treat your profile as an ad campaign: Split test pictures/profile information, view dates as "clicks" and getting laid as "conversions"... optimize until you have an acceptable ROI

But... sounds like you should have a much easier time with some of the sites I see advertised here LOL

Profits of Doom · 01-28-2012, 08:38 PM

I'm actually working on creatives for a POF campaign so I'd love for you to post any info or tips you have. I'm also checking out your blog right now...

I'd have to look at your stuff individually, send me an email? Better yet, run a bit of traffic and let our users tell you if your campaigns work out not

If this your first one? If so, we definitely need to talk so I can make sure your first few steps are headed in the right direction.

brentbacardi · 01-30-2012, 09:39 PM

Welcome and Go Fuck Yourself!

You should make the site more friendly towards couples, me and my girlfriend try to get pussy on POF but its annoying because couples usually list themselves as girls (just like we are) but then we message girls we like and they end up being couples, we cant always tell since their is no couple option.

Just a suggestion!

Hawkins · 01-31-2012, 03:11 AM

Sure, let's talk once everything is finished on your site and you're ready to promote. We are a mainstream site so we don't allow the advertising of adult sites so I hope you aren't making an adult one!

LazyMoe · 02-04-2012, 01:21 PM

I am not sure if anyone should run an adult campaign on POF.
I've had one that was doing good and my account was close.

The fun thing I found someone else running my ad and lander
still today?

So,be worried on Ben and his offer too help you

igio · 02-05-2012, 09:43 AM

I thought POF did not allow adult.

Ben if this is not the case drop me a line: [email protected]

BenPOF · 02-07-2012, 05:29 PM

We don't allow adult on POF. However, if there are any guys who are looking to crossover into mainstream (non-adult) I'm here to help. Hence why this is posted in the mainstream section of the forum

Vendzilla · 02-24-2012, 03:28 PM

I've tried to buy advertising on POF using the least adult related ad as possible and it gets rejected every single time. The only ads of mine that have been approved haven't done well. If you have some suggestions I'd love to discuss things to get things working so I can do a big buy.

1-800-313-WETT · 02-27-2012, 12:09 PM

Even our free video chat was rejected so I am not sure what you are offering here.

We don't view paid dating sites as competition. We exist in a mutually beneficial ecosystem

They buy our traffic to convert users to paid and we get our traffic sold. It's a pretty sweet deal.

You're better off with a product that teaches guys how to get more girls. Getting ex back products don't do as well.

Make money online products have worked in the past, from what I've heard from other affiliates, all the "good" ones are now dead. But the vertical does have potential if you have a good offer.

Yes you can direct link

If we had a section that was labeled "Adult Business Discussions", sure. I believe I'm in the right section as I'm discussing mainstream business in the "mainstream business discussion" section :P Otherwise, there wouldn't need to be a distinct section for this purpose if everyone on GFY was adult.
