What is porn? We have to cover what porn is to the masses.

- We have 65 exclusive sites (Brazzers, RK)
- We have 2 feature model updates a month (Twistys)
- We have 7500+ DVDs (VideoBox, Videosz)
- We also have over 100K active recurring members so being the mash potatoes of porn seems to be working :)

:pimp

Merry Christmas!

And there is the million dollar question. :2 cents:

When it's time for me to rub one off watching porn, I prefer true amateur porn. Not produced in any manner. The real deal.

However, I appreciate those who put a lot into production, it just doesn't get me off or even arouse me in the slightest.

The good news is porn.com even has that:

http://you.porn.com/

:pimp

Dude, three things here:

1. MINE motherfucker MINE. What else would I say?
2. What do you do all day Shap? Sit there in the bahamas and just think of fucked-up threads to start, day after day after day? "What do you think of this" and "what do you think of that". jesus already do some fucking work man and stop trying to be the new Barefootsies.
3. WHY are you constantly on here asking all your fucking questions? I thought Twistys and Shap were DA MAN and yet you come on GFY and ask, again and again, newbie-type questions. WHY?

I have answers to all these questions, of course, just wondering what yours may be. :D

PS: BRAZZERS is your fave paysite? Put the drugs down, dude, please, seek help.

abby winters, metart for me and of course atk, twistys is good as well

Is this one of your "exclusive" sites?

Is all the content in this site owned by porn.com?

and are all the scenes on the tour inside the members area??

Just curious...

Have one of your guys email me a pass I'd love to check it out. I'll send one your way as well.

How do you manage being the jack of all trades? Is one person in charge of all content? Or do you have divisions that specialize in each specific branch of content.

Do you feel having the huge mix and diversity of content is what makes the low price point viable for you? It's kinda like walmart vs Christian LouBoutin and Hermes (yeah it's fuckin xmas those brands are still ringing in my head LOL :1orglaugh:1orglaugh). Walmart is all about low prices and offering a wide range of generic products at a lower price point where the others offer a very niche high end product at a premium price. For most adult sites lowering their price would not increase the bottom line. Do you think that is why?

Content submitted by users.

I've always been worried about that especially attaching it to your main brand. If a major lawsuit hit it would be really easy for them to prove how much the site makes.

Program 3 for content.

VideoBox for technology.

Hmm ... I've never seen any paysites inside :waaaaahh

Has videobox continued to improve? Or sat back on their one big hit?

Do what works for you :pimp

If a DMCA is submitted content is pulled right away and user is banned from the site.

online porn has been like this for a very long time - there are 3 types of paysites now - Walmart(Porn.com), Big Box stores (Brazzers network, RK, Bangbros) and boutiques(Twistys). There are customers for all of them.

the problem today is that surfers can get Walmart and Big Box store content on tube sites and the boutique paysites' content via hundreds of blogs and forums linking to files on Hotfile, Filesonic, Megaupload etc

Yeah, I think they are shifting focus to the future. They have a great product and what I thought was brilliant was offering the full DVD on the tour but limits the surfer to like 1-2 minutes however the surfer can choose whatever two minutes of the movie to watch. So while others were playing catchup, VB was already in a good position to seek other objectives.

I know that they have some cool things in the works content wise. =)

I know they have some very cool things in the works site wise too ;)

Think this the best answer in this thread sofar.

low grade, cut off, grainy dvd content is not what we sell at all so I don't understand how you can compare what we sell to what is on tube sites for free... and anything we find on any of those file sharing sites gets shut down as soon as we spot them with DMCA's

Webmasters often forget that they are completely jaded compared to the average surfer when it comes to viewing porn. They have been looking at it daily for hours on end for YEARS where the average surfer maybe has a look a few times a week for an hour or so... IF THAT.

If you are able look at a site like you would if you haven't seen thousands already, like you don't watch it all the time.. you may get a better handle of what your customer is seeing as well.

The big tubes are full of malware and spyware now. You will see a migration back to good solid affordable sites next year.

Eating my own words here, it's all content from DVDs from what one of the staffers just told me.

User submitted is coming in 2011.

looks like a different tour now. So do you use that "user-submitted" content in your members area?

not sure that is DMCA protected

Newsflash: Most People Don't Need HD To Bust A Nut.

No you won't. You'll see a move to tubes without malware and viruses, or to clean blogs/forums with direct download links. Pretty hard to drop malicious code into a free hosted blogspot blog linking to shit-tons of direct .avi downloads on rapidshare.... :2 cents:

All the content is from amateur DVDs so it looks homemade.

Since I only work in the Asian niche I must say that I have stopped looking inside other members areas a long time ago. I got really fed up with most Asian sites offering their members almost no content and the third party feeds are non Asian content. There are a few really good Asian sites out there, but most of are run by companies that has absolutely no knowledge about Asian content. The few sites that focus on finding the best looking babes that there members are dying to get more content with are the winners in the end. A niche site can never compete with the more "mainstream" porn site in quantity, but most of us know what our members are looking for and give it to them.

No. We will be introducing a submit your sex tape section in 2011. Everyone got a sneak peak of the tour.

AFF probably has the most user submitted content of any "members" section sites I've seen.

And the boutique or niche sites biggest enemy has to be the surfer boards that have an insane amount of links on them.

Is there any way to fight that, except spamming their boards with content yourself?

We tested this traffic tool that shows where most of your competition is getting their traffic from.

One site mentioned in this thread gets a majority from spamming those free loader boards.

Yeah I'm not surprised, I've been reading a few lately to try and get some insite on the industry.

I was also surprised to see AFF has 250,000 user submitted videos in their members area, no model releases, id's etc... Prob. the biggest collection of amateur porn out there. I have no idea if any of it is dvd, but to me it looks legit amateur.

LOL I have 25 people working hard getting things done :thumbsup

I get festive and giving at this time of year so I try to come up with ideas that somebody may benefit from. If one person reads it and benefits from it I'm happy :winkwink: And besides the threads don't take too much of my time.

Can i get your email?

LOL Just busting your chops, man.
Everyone knows Twistys rules. :)

solo girl sites get killed by it and other than sending out DMCA notifications there's nothing to do about it. I have one file hosting site who is daring me to sue them, they ignore my DMCA emails yet there are other sites who do get their content taken down. I need to hire a lawyer to investigate the owner of the file hosting site Oron.com to see if he has any assets - no point in suing broke people.

there is free promo in it but that's far outweighed by the damage the piracy does - guys who would have joined the site but don't because they can get it from the forums/file hosters for free.

As they say in Mexican:
"Major Problemo"
See?
