The problem with pay sites is simple

I was watching on TV (BBC in the UK) and one gambling (online) was just after people becoming members. Not only did they not make people pay to become members but they gave anyone who became a member a free bet on a certainty (I think the payout was £30). The idea is most people will then bet that £30 so chances are they get all the money back.

A better way for porn sites would be to get people to join the site for free, then try to get them to join.

One porn site has given away VR goggles for free [LINK]. It will be interesting how they use this. Will they use the database to attract new customers (one presumes the problem is people under 18 will be getting them).

But if sites could get people to sign up for something (say a free gift or access to a small part of the site) this should result in more people becoming paid members.

Interesting...but I do not think the gambling model fits with adult too well IMHO. The gambling model relies on the person who is "addicted" to gambling. Such a person will make future bets which will cost him money. Where as in adult, the reliance is on a person wanting to masturbate. Using the limited membership model, that person can keep fulfilling his need for free. Unless the surfer is infatuated with a solo model, then I can see how a free limited version will likely result in a full membership. But then again, if the surfer is infatuated with a solo model, then that surfer is likely to signup for a full membership regardless.

Sure, and the best way to fill up a restaurant is to offer free food then try to get them to buy dessert at the end of the meal.

See how long you can afford to keep your doors open!

Many sites offer free and low cost deals, But I believe many see that as a scam. Like all those join for a $1 sites. In the small print you see where you are gonna get multiple cross sales.

so the problem with pay sites is they are not free.

the simple solution to that is to make them free then come up with a brand-new innovative way to get people to pay for what they are getting for free.

simple.

No, the problem with paysites is they are often run by geniuses like the OP.

Hey DV: It's called a TRIAL.

If you have something good and create a following, almost any product can be sold that way. The problem is that the porn landscape is filled with same boring-ass shit made by people without a single sexual/erotic bone in their body.

If anyone should be dispensing business advice, it's clearly this guy. You know. the one in a wedding dress, painted face like a clown who does nothing but cut and paste nonsense news all day long on forums.

The VOD sites are a little closer to the gambling site model then pay sites are.

A person could also try wiping their ass and then taking a shit.

A bit better way to explain this type of marketing: make a bond with the customer before asking him to pay.

You know, like Ahrefs (came into my mind from last day's thread). They have two free options actually:

Not signed in option:

https://ahrefs.com/site-explorer/ove...target=gfy.com

Signed in option:

https://ahrefs.com/registration/choose-your-plan

Porn sites already use this model and with the same way as Ahrefs; for example Chaturbate. Though their free signup doesn't really bring that much benefits.

Did I miss something while I've been in exile?

I thought Tube sites were free, had loads of good porn on them and no one needed t even join. LOL

I can agree with the fact that big part of porn is badly produced. The quality seems also to have declined. If you look a tad old porn magazines; the sets are so much better produced. The editors had limited space to make impression/ customers happy and they did put so much more effort into the production to accomplish that. Today it seems that many think that the idea is just to take photos of nude women. Like seeing nude women would be something special in these days..daahhh..
