Can somebody tell me if this is worth it? - GoFuckYourself.com

smut416 · 09-02-2002, 05:48 PM

Ok heres the deal,
I am considering buying a particular movie posts top gallery spot for $500 for 30 days. The site gets 50-50k uniques per day and the owner of the site said I should get 8-10k per day to my galleries. Do you think I should buy it? I mean when you take into consideration the number of click-thru's to the paysite itself, maybe 1-3k?, conversion rate: expecting like 1 in 5,000 at worst hopefully more like 1 in 1000, plus hosting fees etc. You also have to take into consideration recurring etc. Is this worth a shot? Please help me out ! Thanks!

if you can check the site counter stats, are the hits 2 or more times greater than the unques?

shemp

marty · 09-02-2002, 05:58 PM

Can you get a 2 or 3 day trial?

That could answer your question and back up what he told you!

Plat · 09-02-2002, 06:51 PM

50-50k uniques?

smut416 · 09-02-2002, 07:06 PM

50-55k uniques is what I meant actually. Yesterday for example, 52,786 uniques and 79,231 impressions. So no, thats hits are not 2 times greater than the uniques Shemp. and no i can't get a a 2 day trial, the site owner says that he is already giving me a "deal" and that he will sell me the spot for a month only. I think im going to buy it, i'm not really sure yet, need some more input

Sounds like a hassle. Fuck that, no trial = no sale. Period. You don't know what you'll be getting.

Jon · 09-02-2002, 07:14 PM

yah i never do new business unless i get trials.

.:Frog:. · 09-02-2002, 07:14 PM

It might be worth a try.
Have you actually seen the stats, or are just going by what he is telling you?

smut416 · 09-02-2002, 07:20 PM

I have seen the stats for myself, so i know hes not lyign about the traffic numbers. I does seem shady, but it could turn out to be a good deal you know. Ahhh, dont know what to do!

Theo · 09-02-2002, 07:20 PM

'The site gets 50-50k uniques per day and the owner of the site said I should get 8-10k per day to my galleries"

i doubt if the top gallery will get 8-10k even if the way of listing is similar to thehun,elephantlist etc. At least my personal experience in the past showed less numbers.

what's the site if you dont mind?

ldinternet · 09-02-2002, 07:22 PM

And besides what I just said...

Sounds like an inflexible asshole. Don't do business like that. Just tell him to get fucked.

reddawg · 09-02-2002, 07:26 PM

Buying traffic is a joke and you can kiss your money good fucking bye!! Spend the money and buy a spot on sex.com or Yahoo.com, not a shot in the dark

I can get you a guaranteed listing on a big tgp for $20 bucks for the month. 1 gallery a day for 30 days. They get more traffic, but I can tell you this... your galleries won't see 10k a day, actually a lot less. But you'll make your $20 bucks back and probably a lot of profit besides.

Killerelf · 09-02-2002, 07:27 PM

I have come to find that being listed first is not the best go for spot number two.

But on a serious note....well that is a big secret

Listen to CD he knows what he is talking about!

Hey CD still on for the wieght loss bet?

Theo · 09-02-2002, 07:31 PM

Cdsmith's deal is more realistic and a good start to see what's going on. Also i would suggest to drop an email to webmaster @ onlymovies.com telling him that you are interested in top spots. His site is HUGE and he is more reasonable.

smut416 · 09-02-2002, 07:46 PM

yes, i may do some smaller "tests" to see how my galleries convert. If anybody has a good traffic movie post or knows someone that runs one, let me know. Thanks for the only movies tip.

Fletch XXX · 09-02-2002, 07:48 PM

I'd say $500 bones is a small investment compared to some in this business. If you are capable of spending the % on it, Its safe to say you can afford to gain nothing from it, if it proves not worth the initial bones.

Give it a shot.

wouncie · 09-02-2002, 08:14 PM

You guys got me pumped up, I'm emailing the hun right now and demanding a 3 day trial.
..... I'll keep you posted

Lexxx · 09-02-2002, 08:25 PM

This can start a whole new niche: pushing TGP sales with trials and conversions, and such...

smut416 · 09-02-2002, 08:27 PM

I dont think the hun will be down for a 2 day trial! That would be cool if he did!

the Shemp · 09-02-2002, 08:31 PM

You can buy a one day link at the HUN cant you?
If thats what you mean by a trial....

shemp

smut416 · 09-02-2002, 08:34 PM

Yes, I believe you buy a top spot for $500 or a 2-5 link for $400. your link stays on the page for 3 days I believe, each day droping lower and lower. I cant imagine making your money back on this! Maybe i'll try!

the Shemp · 09-02-2002, 08:40 PM

The last time i had a gallery on the HUN i got 14 signups at $29.95 recurring, the first day and 3 the second day. This was not a paid spot, but it was in the middle of his links. So depending on how many sign up again next month, it may very well pay off to pay for a top spot.

Carrie · 09-02-2002, 11:49 PM

Shemp,
How many hits avg. could a person expect to get with a gallery in the top 1/3rd or so of your listings?
