    KRL & Men.com - unmet expectations?

    Men.com sold for $1.3 million a while ago.

    Announcements have been made on this board for a nationwide TV commercials campaign to be broadcast and the spots have been taped (I remember KRL asking for hot males to act in the commercials).

    To this moment though, men.com looks more like a landing page than the 'magazine' it implies to be. I haven't heard a word about commercials. There is no alexa ranking.

    KRL, not to bash you, but what is happening with men.com?

                      I wonder what happened with that $1500 design competition, KRL was running a while ago. None of those header designs was ever used on men.com
                      ?

                          I dont think he is trying hard to make money from it while he owns it. It's just an investment, he's gonna sell at higher price sometime.

                              KRL is a bullshit artist. When he's not posting on GFY, he's flipping burgers or picking up aluminum cans.

                                  Best part is that you guys believed he really bought it in the first place.

                                              I was wondering the same, but figured "its none of my business."

                                              I don't exactly conceder a landing page filled with "advertisers" a good way to kick start a large scaled project. Its been forever, and that applet on mainpage just lags the hell out of me.

                                              I did however notice the stylish men.IwantU.com
                                              Maybe focus is elsewhere for the time being.

                                                          Come on. He is making good money on the type in traffic while he comes up with something good. The sale probably generated lots of interest and a few emails saying 1.3 was too low I would pay you x.

                                                                  Well, the interest and hype the sale generated really would not be imbedded in a normal surfers mind. The only good point to the sale, was that it left a lasting mark and impression on webmasters and domain buyers which will upkeep the value regardless of content.

                                                                  Within the time the PRs were made to current date, most surfers would have already lost interest. Most, including myself only revisit a location X amount of times before saying -- "fuck this."

                                                                                                                                                      To this moment though, men.com looks more like a landing page than the 'magazine' it implies to be. I haven't heard a word about commercials. There is no alexa ranking.

                                                                                                                                                                                      To the trained professional, men.com's current state is worth less than a few thousand dollars tops.

                                                                                                                                                                                      Of course, KRL's intentions are to launch this venture amidst a wave of publicity and hype, have it go public, and cash out at the peak, as per usual Jewish tactics.......just remember, men.com will never amount to anything of value to humanity....it's just more jewish drivel used to exploit the unwitting goys who are dumb enough to invest/buy into the concept.
