Does anyone here use Shopmaker.com to host their adult website on? And if so, what has your experience been with them?

seems to be the same people as Bondage Fetish World which has been around for a while (did a quick goog of the imprint) but there's like zero mention of this site anywhere as far as I could see

is this site/service new? how did you come across them?

edited to add, was curious so checked out their twit. last post was in 2021

from that checked out a live site (or at least, not closed) and saw that neither shopmaker nor their clips site clipspool offer cc as one of the payment options available to customers

I can only speak from the affiliate side.

We've been promoting a few of their sites through SMRevenue. We still get weekly newsletters too. Earnings are slow though.

yeah, I had found the site, just couldn't find any mention of it anywhere. from the looks of the aff program I guess more boutique and Euro-oriented?


it looks awesome, really nice and clean


this prob wouldn't have anything to do with the drop in sales you've mentioned (as I assume your site never had cc) but I'm curious as to US/CA/Aus traffic. do you find that the options you do have are enough to attract and retain members from those nations? wicked if so, Visa and MC are such bitches and I can't wait until they no longer have a strangle-hold on processing

for Euros I imagine it's no big loss, as I've read they tend to prefer with non-cc options anyway? just curious as to whether pp and bank transfer manage to cover the non-Euros

lol quell suprise

too funny though, in all my years I've never gotten a cam session or content sale from someone in China but two of my biggest spenders on one of my aff sites are from there. go figure. when they each first started spending I thought for sure they'd end up being fraud/refunds even though the traffic sources and browsers looked legit

I woulda assumed most of your traffic is US based on the nature of your content, wicked that (up til now at least) it was converting without cc

as the fees to offer those cards through a MID increase and the constraints become increasingly ridiculous (on one site I sell content no more pigtails are allowed !?!) your overall experience bodes maybe/kinda well for the future. or perhaps that's just hopium, normally not into trendy words but I like that one

what are you finding in your stats? are visitors surfing but not filling a basket, or do they do abandon cart?

if the former, one thing to maaaaaybe test out on a few vids is a lower price point. it pains me to write that, goes against everything in my nature

just for example from your home page, in a rather 'challenging' US economy where price points are much lower elsewhere, the idea of spending $36 on a 10 min solo masturbation vid. I get that it's 4k but as half the peeps will view on their mobile it's not gonna be a selling point for them

your site looks great, your content def fills the brief for your niche, just offering a suggestion re playing around with price, at least on a few items in your catalogue

hope I'm not over-stepping my bounds here. have been mulling over the whole pricing thing myself recently as I joined a new site where the 'suggested' prices for every vid I set to pub are insanely low. I chose to disregard 'suggested', I am not going to sell something I put a tremendous amount of thought and work into for $6 lol


much of my indy sessions/clips traffic is US and I haven't lowered my prices or done sales/discounts/etc despite their current economic challenges and I'm doing fine, but with respect (if I didn't respect you I wouldn't bother to give my real thoughts) I'm suggesting your prices for your niche are quite high

for a very specific fetish niche $36 for 10 mins could def pull in bunches of sales. same if a specific performer was the draw (need not be famous, just have a following of dudes into her). for solo mast though, $3 per min when a client isn't purchasing the content specifically because a certain performer he's into is featured in it? that is a challenging sale


hope ya read my words with the spirit intended. just offering an idea. and again great work with your site. I wish you all the best with it
