    How much does it cost to put up a Tube site?

    How much does it cost to put up a Tube site?

    As someone with little experience or knowledge on this subject and with the hosted tube idea. I was thinking. How much does it cost to put up a Tube site?

    Script.
    Content from sponsors.
    Hosting.
    Time.

    Some scripts are very cheap. Content for nothing. Hosting, can't be a factor really to stop people. Time, well this is an unknown so offer me advice please.

    Then you're in control, promote who you like even your own sites, don't sell traffic via a middleman and be in complete control.

    If you already have one, redirect to this Tube from unused domains. Or just clone it.

      No I don't and never claimed to have. Especially on something like this.

          Paul,

          I have built full tubes for several clients.
          A high quality tube includes unique video titles, scene texts, model biography pages, scripts, design, and more.
          If you want your own full tube contact me via ICQ 266942896

          I'll go over pricing and show you examples of my work.

                Wrong - You DONT need hosting - Just set your DNS to point to HostedTube and thats it... Hence the word 'Hosted' in their name

                          Dirt cheap if you use sponsor clips, you just have to pay for the script (unless you use the free Nubiles script), domain and hosting.
                          I could see it getting very expensive if you buy content as you'd have to buy one hell of a lot to make it compete with the established tubes.

                            May I inquire why you are asking Paul?

                            Is it

                            a) so you can do your own tube
                            b) so you can slag off PimpRoll

                            Thanks

                              To make a real one? $2000 for script and design. $500 a month in hosting to start. $1000 in traffic first month to start. Host your own videos. Get sponsors to submit the videos to you with unique descriptions, most programs have a guy doing tube submissions for them. Make sure you get 5+min clips, pref 9-11min.

                              As this goes you will have to upgrade hosting pretty fast ofc and also buy more traffic.

                                    Cheap? You guys have actually any idea of how much manpower it takes to RUN the whole thing?
                                    Tubes aren't only a script you put into automatic mode.

                                    Cheap if you want cheap results, yes.

                                          You have got to be fucking kidding me. How long is a piece of string?

                                          You should at least be able to put together a plan of what you want to achieve, then whip out a calculator and come to an approximate number. You could even come to a number by using an abacus or counting pterodactyl eggs like when you were a kid.

                                            It costs you $8 if you use www.hostedtube.com. I believe we even offered to buy you a domain as well, Paul. So the true cost to you would be $0. Only your 5 minutes to configure your tube how you want it in our system.

                                                  Yeah exactly. What annoys me is that people that don't run tubes think that these things can just run on automatic pilot.

Can probably get a lot more, hosting I have and unless I get a lot it will do fine. As someone said there are people submitting themselves. As for design,

Can probably get a lot more, hosting I have and unless I get a lot it will do fine. As someone said there are people submitting themselves. As for design,

                                                                            I know it's not a lot of money seeing some who have done it, so probably not going to break the bank.

                                                                            just got an idea that might make a Tube slightly different than the norm. So fishing around for some budgets.

                                                                                        If you think I will tell everyone, then you're not thinking at all.

                                                                                        But I'm sure your idea is grand. Talk to Sleazy he might need a traffic partner for YesSignals.

                                                                                          Now you need someone who knows what they are doing to provide quality exclusive content, video player improvements, on-page SEO work for the site, backlinks, along with a lot of other work if you intend to actually build any traffic to the site. Posting 'sponsor content videos' that use duplicate titles and text with little or no SEO work done on your site makes it no better than 10000s of other partial tubes and is not going to rank you for much.

                                                                                          If you do not intend to do *all* the work needed to build a successful tube, I'd strongly recommend you go with a HostedTube.com site instead. There is a huge difference between a properly made full tube and a hostedtube, there is almost no difference between a partially made full tube and a hosted tube.

                                                                                          1) A Well made full tube will run you 5K and up (unless you do much of the work yourself)

                                                                                          3) A HostedTube is $7 for the domain and no BW or management costs
