Porn Stock Goes Public

With sharp economic ups and downs, it is surprising that any company would
dare go public now. That is unless you happen to contain the only two money
making Internet business models. Jade Entertainment Group (proposed symbol,
NASDAQ OTCBB: JENT), announced it's self directed IPO of 500,000 shares of
common stock at $3.00 per share recently, and expects to be publicly traded
within 60 days.

So why risk an IPO now? Simple. JENT's main web property www.askjade.com
merges the much acclaimed pay-per-click search engine model (goto.com and
Findwhat.com:FWHT) and the ever-profitable Adult Entertainment Industry
(Private: PRVT and New Frontier Media: NOOF). Askjade.com is a mega adult
search engine that allows owners of adult sites to bid on how much they will
pay for a click-through to their site. This bid determines the placement
within the engine. The higher the bid for particular keywords, the higher
the bidder appears in the search results.

With plans to expand into content distribution, and over 300 webmasters
already signed up and funding accounts, The company shows great promise of
generating major revenues by years end. Already generating enough revenue to
cover technical overhead, the company projects short term revenue in the
millions. "Going public allows us to quickly generate funds for marketing
that will get us where we want to be sooner rather than later", states
President Tim Schmidt, "Usually only webmasters and owners of adult sites
get rich off of the industry, we are giving the investor a chance to take
advantage.

A two-year study by Alexa Research has revealed, Sex-related terms remain
quite popular among Internet searches. "Sex" was the most popular term for
which people searched. Of all the terms searched for online, 0.3289% -- or
roughly 1 of every 300 terms -- were "sex." People search for "sex" more
often than "games," "music," "travel," "jokes," "cars," "jobs," "weather"
and "health" combined. "Porn" (along with "porno" and "pornography") was the
fourth most popular search term. "Nude" (and "nudes"), "xxx," "Playboy" and
"erotic stories" (and "erotica") were also among the top 20.

( I thought it was an interesting column )

500,000 x $3 = $1.5 Million capitalization. That's a very small-cap stock and will not be on the normal Nasdaq exchange.

But I wish them the best.

I actually considered their stock but I cant get past how poor their adult webmaster services are. They make all the right moves ( ie there partnerships with yahoo ) but actual dealings with their submission service is a nightmare. I cant help but to think they will decline sooner or later. It will be a good one to keep half an eye on.

Well.
My friend and long time partner in some other business deals. Actively takes companies public to small cap. Its guaranteed and it costs 90% less them ipos price of $2mil+ for expenses.
But 1.5million is very small.

Well no shit Sherlock, of course the webmasters make the bling-bling, it is alot of fucking work.

It is IPO's like this that give IPO's a bad name.

Now if adult.com ever had an IPO...
