I think he had a secret crush on Cindy too

The pleasure was all mine..you had to be the sharpest dressed man in the place! The new project will be ready soon :thumbsup

I think I know the answer to question 12#. I tought I was a work horse!

Question #10: What did you do before online adult?

I worked at my dads company, not really an exciting job though. I came fresh out of college and worked there for the experience.
In the weekends I used to work as a dancer in clubs and house parties (raves I believed they're called in the US), and no, sorry ladies, I didn't dance nekkid...

Question #11: Did you ever think you would make the money you do?

No, and I still can't believe I do. I am very gratefull I am in this position right now. We worked hard for a long time but I know plenty of other people working long hours too, but well, I guess they're in the wrong business ;-) and we got lucky....

I hear many good things about your new site! ..looking foward to it.

Nice interview! This is a great series Sleazy. :thumbsup

Yes, that's Allie and I right behind Okidoki. We highly recommend his security services. He's pretty expensive but like the saying goes, "you get what you pay for." The club was packed that night but we walked right in the door, he gave everyone that look you can see in the pic and the crowd immediately parted and allowed us to stroll right on through to the VIP section.

BTW, his traffic is pretty good too! :winkwink:

Here's an example why postcount != user's level

Sleazy - man you are seriously impressing with your Ambush interviews! I actually fell sorry for some stuff I said about you lol but I guess everybody is an asshole (and you like to show that part alot in GFY ;) )

I have one question:

- What do you think its going to happen to the "tgp industry" with most tgp owners getting all their spots sold, exclusive partner accounts and FHG's, that leave out of the equation lots of good webmasters.

- Also in your opinion do you think that most tgp traffic belongs into a "monopoly" of a few selected ones (like yourself)?

cheers

Pierre and his staff are all great people. He is one of the friendlyiest and easiest to work with in this business.

No kidding..lol. I would never have guessed Pierre can pull a face like that. :1orglaugh
There's an actor waiting to be born under all that traffic... :thumbsup

good job sleazy

:thumbsup

shit missed 50 hehehe

yes easy!!...like Denis is a big man-whore!

Question for Pierre

Have you ever recieved a silver keychain, thinking it was not silver and giving it to someone else?


hahaha

The only bad thing about you buying AL4A is that you did away with most hosted galleries, as you mentioned earlier. DonnysGirls.com and AmateurMarket.net galleries converted that traffic great. AL4A has one of the best sources of TGP traffic. Oh well, at least rebills keep coming in.

My question is: when you bought AL4A did you also aquire most of the domains Al owned? There is one I was going to buy from him and now I can't find him. I'd still like to buy it.

Nice pic Sleazy. :1orglaugh

Great interview Okidoki and SleazyDream...Thanks!

Great interview Sleazy :thumbsup

Nice thread. Here's some questions to add:

How long do you expect to stay in this industry and what will you do afterward (assuming you intend to leave at all)?

Would you ever consider selling your sites?

Do you plan on buying more TGPs in the near future?

Also...

It seems none of your TGP's use trading scripts or blind links. Why is this?What is your opinion on these forms of trading?

Yup..'ambush interviews' is definitely a hit so far :thumbsup

Pierre is very "metro" ;)

Good interview guys!

DH

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Damnit man, you're scaring me with that look!!

You'd better get your ass into this office straight from the airport my friend!!

Lensman, Pierre posted more replies today then ever in his GFY life.

So do I, I am afraid hehehe

He won't... He's buying a bottle of Jack's at the airport, and drives straight to Rotterdam :Graucho

*bump* for more answers! :D

Hi Jake,
it was a pleasure keeping all the fans of your and Allies back. It must be a bitch to be so popular!
At your service!

regards
Pierre

HELL YEAH! arriving the 22nd of feb my friend! :thumbsup :thumbsup
We gotta have a business and a drinking/diner meeting :winkwink:

Hi Rui,

I don't think you can grow your site if you fill it with sold spots and fgh's.. It hurts the traffic in the long run. That is why I always strive for a combination of sold/ fhg and submitted galleries. Al4a was gaining on us one year after we bought worldsex, but when al started using fhg's mostly, his traffic dropped quite some (although he made more money, and that is what we're all in for ;-). So doing so has always good and bad sides. I believe that if my site will grow bigger (when we bought al4a.com, it had about 800k, now it has on some days 1.2 million), the money will come as well.

Partners accounts are something I can see the use for, it helps fighting cheaters. I wouldn't use strictly exclusive accounts, but I am working on a paid option (premium accounts). Where a webmaster would pay for extra service and increased listing chances. Webmaster would still have the option to get listed with a free account though, they just have to wait a bit longer, for example:
When we closed down the partner application form for al4.com we were reviewing applications for 2 months afterwards.

So if people want to get approved within 24 hours, get decline reasons for every submitted gallery, want to be reviewed ahead of everybody else etc..then I have to hire people for it as well, so thus will make it more costly for me. As I want to get rich too, I want to ask for a monthly fee.

I think we all share most of the same traffic. People who visit worldsex, might also visit the hun and some other sites probably. If I was a surfer, I would. Surfers probably buy of a site they feel most comfortable with (I assume).
It helps to be big, as we then corner a big share of the market ;-)

hope these answered your questions.
regards
Pierre

No idea if this has been asked, I don't have time to read the whole thread, but let me ask you this:

If you were the owner of The Hun, would you run it in a different way than he does, f.e would you change something, if yes, what would be that?

thanks,

PA

Good question!

And nice thread Sleazy! :thumbsup

LOL thats a good pic. For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of meeting Pierre, he is a VERY funny guy.

Something else about him that speaks volumes: Pierre is one of the few guys in the biz that travels all the way from Holland to the USA conventions and brings his family. How many times in this biz have we seen married/committed guys downright proud of the fact that they are at the conventions to play ball with talent? :disgust The same people talk to you about integrity and honesty of their program while they parade their 19 year old mistress around.

Thanks Sagi,
I enjoy doing business with AFF as well, you guys convert like nobody can, and every month I make more money, which is good... for obvious reasons.
