I wonder who's worse for the industry: a-s-h-cr-o-f-t or this guy

Saw this ad today on Google Adwords, #1 for keyword "nude woman":

Hey Newbie Don't Buy Porn
Lesson #1: Don't pay for porn
when you can get it free!
www.napster-of-porn.com

He promotes Ifriends, Wegcash & other "free trial" programs.
Looks like a great new marketing conept, isn't it?

Yep, she has.

And I'm pretty sure you'll not find anything free anyway, except a free trial paysite. Am I right?

Just curious

Someone posted about this a few months ago. I guess he just gives links to a bunch of sites with free trials and tells people to cancel after the free trial is up. Of course, there are plenty of people who don't, even if they simply forget -- thats where the money comes from. That has been running on Google for a while now, so it must be working.

Hmm, i didnt see the cancel part. Thats something i wouldnt do, not fair to the sponsors who are paying me. But other then that its a nice page to send some traffic to.

Everybody wants free shit. That is a great way pull people in. Basically, good marketing, but he definitly pays a pretty penny sitting on top of Adwords. Must be worth it though if he has been there for awhile...unless napster ends up stomping his ass out.

Everyone assumes it's a he, lol. Awesome. I think it's a she, and I think she's been around since day 1 or maybe day 2, lol.

Anyway, yep been around for years now. Been paying top spots on SE's for just about as long. Used to always have top tgp gallery spots as well, maybe still does.

If theres something wrong with it, it's perceptions (such as what spurred this thread for example) But usually it's because people dont look further before reacting
