              I understand your logic but I also remeber cashquest.com

              They had super domains like footfetish.com and fatgirls.com etc...
              They folded like a fucking dinner napkin.
              Done.

                    Just curious.

                      Who is backing them? Maybe the millions of dollars in profit they make from their sites?

                            They had to have tons of VC in the beginning. Their advertising budget is immense. I would suspect they are making a good bit of coin these days.

                                          I looked at some old links.

                                          Cash Quest owned

                                          BigDick.com
                                          FatGirls.com
                                          FootFetish.com
                                          Transsexuals.com
                                          Youngwives.com ...etc...


                                          I'm not knocking Cashquest...I think they did a great job at that time.

                                          But where is the money in the domains?



                                          I'm just saying that if cashquest didn't explode into the year 2008 then how can shemale.com explode just on the name alone?

                                          I don't see how shemale.com is better than bigdick.com, footfetish.com etc...
                                          Done.

                                              You mean almost? I would disagree with you on 20% of VOD sales are shemale videos. Maybe on your VOD but not industry standard.

                                                I am not knocking the company, just making an observation. It looks like they spend more money on things like prizes and conventions then companies like AFF. And I bet AFF makes about 50x more money then them. They spend a ton of money and seems like they have been like that for a while. I am sure their profit margin is not "THAT" much larger then the other adult companies here. They still have all the same expenses as everyone else.

                                                It's not like you hear everyone saying i made a killing with pussycash, i don't hear them talked about that much more then any other site. I may be wrong but it seems very obvious that they had a big treasure chest to play with and they may still have peices of gold in it (well maybe not after this domain purchase. I am actually one of their affiliates now and about to try them out on a new project so don't think this is an attempt to bash them.

                                                      Great domain name but for that money they could have created a shit hot site + advertising. Aren't they just relying on the domain coming up in the search engines a lot?

They could redirect the domain to any established paysite and I'm sure they'd recoup their investment, though it might take some time. Obviously making a paysite out of it would be a smarter choice.

                                                                                          They a give a "blind" appraisal that you have to follow up on for details.

                                                                                          In other words, it's a decent starting place; just interpolate other factors that you know can affect the price.

                                                                                                  - contact swim suit companies and get all the hot models pics they have wearing their product. And post them with headshots.

                                                                                                  Have a $300 bikini contest everyweek from surfer submissions.

                                                                                                  Hire an "agent" to try to get commericals, print ads, playboy spreads etc... for your models/contest winners. "I started my career on bikinipage.com" is what you want the models saying.

                                                                                                  Got enough cash to start a print magazine? Do it!

                                                                                                  A company with a 10 million budget to launch is not going to settle for

Even a ballpark estimate opinion would be appreciated.

                                                                                                    Thanks for your opinion/thoughts.
