damn right :thumbsup

There are some smart people here as well :winkwink:

GREAT stuff!!!
Informative etc, yet not ultimate.
I am pretty new at all this, and have a Web Site etc, based in Norway. (Yeah, I know... Norway!)
Anyway, Norway's capital, Oslo has an entire population of nearly 500,000 people, meaning that any Web Site over here is going to be under ridiculous percentage results regardless of what you do.

I mean, to make money over here, you have to sell this stuff just as a regular Hot-Dog stand etc, and that's NOT gonna happen!

At the same time, I do sit in a unique situation, whereby I run the erotic fair over here, known as Sexhibition, and hence I have stacks of traffic compared to anything else over here!

The strange thing is, that the results over here are real weird, and may be useable to see a bit clearer what is happening and how people work.

My Web Site offers all sorts of services, ranging from SMS-Chat, MMS Downloads, TeleSEX, TeleCHAT, Members Galleries, Forums, Web-Shop and recently Porn-Stream.
So from all those services it is easy to see what people want etc, and see how each is being presented, and hence compare them.

The Porn Stream is pretty new, and things take time here, but the sales are really SLOW!!!
Whereas the SMS stuff is super great, and the Telephone stuff (the sex one).
Members Galleries too does great!

But the porn-stream and MMS is really bad at the moment.

I have built the entire Site myself from scratch, and from not knowing dick to actually getting things online is for me a huge achievement.

But, perhaps I might change the Streaming presentation as a result of this article!
I'll let you know what happens...
Thanks again.

yep this are my thougths. :thumbsup

hmm
 

Yeah, I heard this too... I gotta get some Meta Tags in place...

Only someone full of self-doubt and uncertainty post stuff like this :1orglaugh

Unfortunate when people expose their weaknesses on message boards

DamageX, awesome post, man.

Thanks Gene. :)

Awesome post...

I tend to agree with you. However, 95% of the people in the business don't really know what they're doing and that's what makes the TGPs "suck".. Unless you're one of the "big guys", you'll only have a succesful text TGP if you write "good" text (along with content the surfer actually wants to see). What words do the surfers "like" and makes them click more? (i.e. do they click more on links that use the word pussy, cu nt, twat or???) What text gets them turned on enough to click on more links? Is the text vague enough that they HAVE to click to see what's there?

Now apply that to thumb TGPs. Almost every one I look at has thumbs that shows practically all the action or clear shots of the girl so the surfer knows who she is. So if they've already seen that gallery or that girl, there's no reason to click. Now if you were to think "tease" and be "vague" when you create your thumbs, you'd probably get more clicks. But even with that you need to test it.. Does the surfer click on more of the ass shot thumbs? face shot? pentration shots????

Having said that, I've only ever run text TGPs. I'm about to try a thumb one though so we'll see how I make out with it.

If you're good at text sites, why dabble into thumb sites? If I were you I'd rather keep building more text sites. :winkwink:

50. someone had to do this :(

Blasphemy! You fiftied a business thread! :1orglaugh
