Sponsors and Affiliates Give Away the Store - GoFuckYourself.com

Everyone in the adult industry says that the best tours and advertising are those that tease and entice the potential member to join. Okay... I agree.

Let's face it... Everyone who joins a site has an anticipation that the site will satisfy their desire to see more... especially the money shot of the model in the tour that caught their eye.

So why do adult sites give the money shot away in banners, tour graphics, free galleries, etc?

Is it possible that you would actually have more sign ups if the money shot is not shown? I mean, everyone knows it's there.

Has anyone ever tried this?

And before anyone tells me this is a second post... The other subject line (Free Pussy) made everyone think there was a picture of a pussy cat inside... so they didn't look.

Any paysite that can't compete with freesites is doomed.

Look at it form the view of the person willing to pay for porn.

$1 a day buys you into the site offering what you want, no searching for it, no small compressed images, no little video previews and you get updates every day.

Now look at free sites. Searching for what exactly you want, when you find it the quality is going to be crap and small, ending up in "Pop Up Hell" or having dialers and other things automatically installed on your computer.

If the time wasted searching for that 30 minutes of pleasure is not worth $1 then you're not really a potential customer.

Problem is too many see everything form their own viewpoint, I would spend $30 a month to belong to one of these Private, Lightspeed, Karups, Adult.com, Alsscan or many others.

Suffering from freesites? Then deliver something better.

The problem is... They see the money shot, get off and leave.

Where is the chase?

Where is the anticipation.

Paul, you don't give all those images away.

If more affiliates and sponsors controlled the stuff given away, memberships would sky rocket.

Infact, the adult industry might even be seen as cleaning up it's act.
