Generating Gay Niche Traffic through less popular methods

Many of the more obvious way to generate gay traffic involve gay TGPs, Search Engine pages, Link List categories, pic posts, movie gallery posts, and AVS traffic. This article deals with generating gay niche traffic through more non conventional means.

Create a gay info gateway

There are many pages on the internet that deal with gay social, health, and lifestyle issues. These take the form of chatboards, email discussion lists, informational web pages, and usenet forums. These should be your first target in filtering your traffic.
By filtering, I mean, building sites that attract the readers of these Internet areas and building mechanisms in the sites you built to eventually take them to your adult site.

Step 1: First stage pages

Offer information that mirrors or adds to the bulk of the themes that are already existing in the non-porn gay areas described above. Offer either new information, reconstructed (paraphrased and cross referenced) information, or informational links. Don't be tempted to put porn links at this stage since the traffic is still fairly unfiltered, you must focus on having your pages be an extension of the content of the areas you are recruiting traffic from. Once you've built your first stage pages, start promoting these on the message areas listed above by quoting your own material while participating in the discussions in the forums above. This stage in the process is very time intensive because you are building trust to lure existing traffic. The pages you built also will generate search engine traffic, so keep building page, and build credibility with both existing sites' traffic and search engines.

Key point: first level filter sites are very specific to the websites/forums you will be promoting these sites on. So there has to be a 1:1 correlation in terms of topic. For example: if you plan to filter traffic from a heavily read gay health forum, your pages must be regarding gay health (and I'm not talking about men's health aka penis pill articles)

Step 2: Retain your recruited traffic

Gay traffic is definitely smaller than straight traffic. Hence, you must take extra care in retaining this traffic by offering newsletters, email lists for site update information, and other devices on your site. Grow your first level filter site by putting "refer this to a friend" features on almost all your pages.

Step 3: Aggregate traffic from your specific interest filter sites

Once you've built a network of topic specific pages that reflect the specific topics of non-porn pages/forums/areas you are recruiting from, create a non-porn HUB site where all these topics are discussed. Offer freshly updated content/articles in each of the topic areas that you aggregate. Put a link to your HUB site on all your other pages.

Aggressively market your hub site through search engines, community site link areas, link exchanges, etc.

Step 4: Filtering to porn from your HUB site

Once your hub site is well stocked with exclusive articles/non porn content to retain your traffic. Have a "Gay entertainment" or "Adult Entertainment" link at your hub site. This should lead to a fairly mild area that discusses gay dating/gay encounters/ etc (Dating Gold, AFF, other such affiliate programs would be good for this area).

Step 5: Purely Gay porn site

Using the comparatively mild gay dating/gay entertainment area of your HUB site, link them using suggestive but not fully nude or vulgar graphics to your full on gay porn area. My suggestion would be to use gay site reviews and sample content from FHGs. Remember, credibility is everything so don't go overboard. You must still speak to your traffic in the manner they are accustomed to which is in an even tone and informative manner.

Many of the places to consider:

Gay support groups/forums

Gay (non porn) areas at yahoogroups, msn, lycos, etc

Gay lifestyle (non porn) pages with comment areas/message boards

Gay (non porn) only messageboards/forums

Don't post porn links. That would be spam. Post excerpts and links to your freshly generated non porn content that mirrors their discussions/topics. Get rewarded for participating and enriching their conversations with traffic to your non porn filter site. And build from there.

support and lifestyle pages are great to filter from as well.

Everyone has their own way of getting noob traffic. Others try the more established path of link lists, avs, tgps, etc.

Others may want to try other paths.

We really can't judge others it all depends on the differing paths we choose.

$5, what would you take to conduct some interesting interviews if we set you up with the time, place, and subject?

webmaster x · 03-28-2004, 09:12 PM

To those thinking of using this approach. It is very hard and takes a lot of your time and effort. Plus, its very boring. You won't get thousands of hits like TGPs. So leave this traffic alone and just submit galleries.

Pls stop posting guerrilla traffic tips!

Good article but seems like a lot of work for the amount of traffic you could get. I'm interested to know how much traffic have you got with this method?

Sometimes less is more. As long as there is some sort of age filtering you should be fine.

Age filtering is the problem guys who use this method run into. But as long as you actively do that then it's fine.

Mr. Marks · 04-16-2004, 09:52 PM

If NOOB traffic means higher conversions then maybe this approach would be worth the extra effort.

Then again, $5 provides outsourced labor so Im sure there's a deal to be cut in performing the filtering/seeding listed in the original article.

Will the new site have FHGs?

Should be a great teaser add on for gay-related articles.
