I like the design myself.
This is some pretty good feedback on one of my designs, my work never is in the limelight that often so I am all ears to make it better of course:)

Alien being an ass or not, that design is good. It needs some text changes, but the fundamental layout/look is very solid. :thumbsup

Seriously SOS give it a go off of some softer traffic sources that might help.

the 2nd page thing Abyss mentioned is not such a bad idea either. I always fight with myself about having a next button that goes to a join page.

Ultimatly it probably would help.

The TGP route though 1 in 700 is no where near what the median would be with TGP traffic. The real median might be way higher. even 1 in 1200, 1 in 4000.

I never been a fan of TGP traffic for the bad ratio reasons alone.
Not to mantion with TGP traffic the traffic is very ravanous requiring a constant influx of content.

Do not give the house away.

This way you can correctly identify what traffic is coming from where with different sources and affiliates

"Old" school shit still works wonders...

that's a CTR of about 1,5% (if we're talking about first page clicks), so I guess they're showing first page hits, otherwise the CTR of your gallery would be REALLY bad!

So if you look at it this way, a ratio of 1:700 isn't bad at all with this kind of traffic..

Correct me if I'm wrong here

YARGH! I agree. I think it could be better though. Some tweaks to the design (Shortening the amount of tour pages as The Other Steve Suggested), and a special bit of Chio's magic promotion techniques should help Sam quite a bit. :)

Would you keep promoting a sponsor that was 1:1200 or 1:4000? Of course you wouldn't ... Apparently those that's closer to the average for TGP traffic. :(

The other sites you named are different genre of paysites altogether .:2 cents:

It probably wouldn't hurt to get some subniche working for him too....I see alot of these solo girl sites doing some niche content whether it be a foot fetish thing, or some real specific stuff like balloons. This is all just stuff I've noticed while promoting sites for quite some time. I'm no bigtime gonzo pornographer, just a guy who affiliates with alot of different sites.

No doubt man .. Here I thought you could get 1:100 conversions off of TGP traffic with a brand new site with a great design. I didn't even know 1:1200 or 1:4000 was acceptable.

In addition to whats already been suggested, don't you think image choice may have played a part?

one looks like a bored stripper just thinking about getting out of there,

the other looks like someone i want to spill my load on.

Image choice is very important.. she needs to smile more and not just the "stripper smirk"


fiddy better tour pics.

very true... i keep saying make her smile and look like shes enjoying herself and less skanky,.... how u doin andrew?

Probono 07-16-2005 08:31 PM

I am going to dare to make a suggestion here since I have been working with amateur single girl sites for years. I understand your site is more polished and professional than those I do but that may well be an issue.

A Single girl site needs something to disinguish it from the masses, a niche like extreme Holly, a real personality like ellinude. You also need a stream of traffic looking for that girl, her personality. You need to make the buyer fall in love with that girl to pull the card out.

to me it looks like she's thinking "i can't believe i have to do this shit"

And the one with the lolly pop is "this is my 50th 10 second position today, when's lunch"

the first good way says "what the hell are you waiting for? fill my ass from behind before i change my mind" she looks hungrier than bored. Still not 100% but way better than the other stuff.

A photographer can pick out 2 shots out of 50 to use in a magazine.. thats how you have to be with your tour...

BTW, I noticed you guys got a flurry of signups . . . does that mean you are promoting your site again? :)

I think the boss lady might have been putting a few links here and there

Alien - feel free to ask baddog what our ratio is with a one page tour and bugger all traffic.

baddog - if he asks give him the figures, modesty prevents me from bragging.

not bad.. about to get totally whipped by the gf if im not ready to leave to see sin city in about 5 min though lol - just had to make the point of how important the tour images are, even though it's a fairly obvious one.

...


agreed

my :2 cents:

the tour needs to have continuity - the girl next door/nice girl pics, not the stripper looking ones - work in that she gets nasty but without showing it or maybe a tease shot but nothing to give it all away

like al said - get the surfer wanting to see the good shit and want to join.


dude check out the biggest solo girl sites out there , study them, do your homework then apply it to yours.

im not saying copy but apply the methods

Chris 07-16-2005 09:27 PM

I'm not an expert by anymeans
I am just another fellow webmaster voicing his opinion.

The site strains my eyes. To much blue
alot of brightness
hard to read the words that are gfx

just my opinion though

-i dont like her makeup and you should listen to wargames.... make her hair smooth, put less/softer makeup... make her young.... less skanky outfits.. and NO high heels(the stripper kind!)
-make her young and cute... get her to smile more often...
-tell the photographer not to shoot her from top.. ruins proportians, and have him use the white balance on the camera and manual mode... too much tint on the pics...
-definitel have a trailer on each page.. or maybe just one... but have her tease and not show too much... you want the surfer's attention and the feind to join to see more.... same with the tour.. you dont want to show everything all in tour....

i tihnk thats it for now..... i still have more to say about the members area...


wow, how much are you charging for all that info? SOS, I hope you were paying attention.

I wish you would brag . . . . and promote more. With those ratios I really don't know what is stopping you.

Alien, just a hint . . . if he was converting at 1:700 he would think I was shaving the living fuck out of him. :1orglaugh
