Trial or no Trial????? - GoFuckYourself.com

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 09:56 PM

Hi there, what do you girls and guys think about trials? I currently have a trial at 9.83 for 5 days and it seems that its working very well for me. I cant figure out if my site is just really taking off again and thats why my volume is alot higher or if its because i added the trial. I would love some input on this.

I have a referal program, it seems that some people dont like a trial. can you explain why? I have people that are making serious cash from it, so what is the problem?

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~~~~

Lexxx · 10-07-2002, 09:58 PM

If it works for you... don't fix anything.

People don't like trials because they bring less money in the long term. It's a fact.

pr0 · 10-07-2002, 09:58 PM

No trials! Viva la revolutiona!

Brown Bear · 10-07-2002, 09:59 PM

Desirea is back.

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 10:00 PM

thats why i posted, i would love to hear the facts. and if that is a fact about long term i will take it off. it just seems to be working well. but again, my traffic has gone up alot lately as well. so its hard to say what really is going on.

Desirae Spencer =)~~ ps, thanks for your comment

I have a 3 day trial and it does great!

Did I mention its $19.95 though

Brown Bear · 10-07-2002, 10:00 PM

Trials are crap.

$24.95 a month is the best.

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 10:04 PM

wow, 19.95 for 3 days. you have some balls =)~ i like your pricing structure. it just kills me when i see people selling a product for 9.95 a month. but then again, you usually get what you pay for. i bet your site is pretty good at that price.

Desirae Spencer =)~~~

Dugmor · 10-07-2002, 10:10 PM

Try to wack the surfer on the regular monthly price. If they exit out of there. Hit them with a trial.
I do that on a few of my sites and it works very well.
My regular sales are very high compared to my trial and my affiliates love it !

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 10:14 PM

gugmor, i have the same thing. and your right, it works great! although, it will be comon practice pretty soon. then i will prob just go back to a normal monthly rate.

also, what do you think a good monthly recurring membership should run? my site is interactive. i talk with my members on my live streaming cam that is on 24 hrs a day with chat and sound. i have over 100 full length personal movies, over 2k personal pics, and a ton more. its packed with tons of content. so what should i charge? im charging 24.95 for a moth recurring right now. can i get away with more? and would i do better you think?

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~

ZoiNk · 10-07-2002, 10:21 PM

I like trials, when I use sponsors with both options, the ones where they go to full month, they seem to like to try to refund/chargeback. When I activate the trial, they don't chargeback.

So, if the surfer feels they didn't get everything they wanted, they are like well, it was only $$ amount of dollars, not the full monthly price. I feel $24.95 is the perfect monthly price, but no, I don't run a paysite, just an affiliate of lots of programs

Care to explain? No Trials are great for the affiliate but what about the user? What's the pro and con?

My feeling is that no trial reduces sales but does not really increase 1) retention/rebill 2) may have an adverse effect re asking for a refund. What are your thoughts?

beemk · 10-07-2002, 10:27 PM

i really like the site wouncie. how many people go for the $20 trial? its a good idea.

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 10:28 PM

i can only speak for myself here about chargebacks and refunds. i have had only 14 refunds for this yr. i do some serious volume out my site, if you have a great product the customer isnt going to ask for there money back. if you give them something that is a rip, then it should be expected.

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~~

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 10:30 PM

i cant believe many people hit on a 3 day trial for 20.00. if your getting that alot, more power to you. i think something like 20.00 fpr 10 days, 30 for a month. and 40.00 for 3 months might work. make them go right into the 40.00 membership =)~~~~~

The exact same amount that went for it when it was $5.95

BJ · 10-07-2002, 10:34 PM

why not take your average retention rate, lets say three months @ 29.95 or 89.85 total and offer a full year for only 129.00!!! a Savings of 230.40 off the regular price!!! people love that shit.

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 10:34 PM

hell yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you gotta love that! im going to up my trial, thats all there is to it =)~

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~~~~

Lexxx · 10-07-2002, 10:59 PM

Holy shit there are a lot of posters on this board tonight...

Ahh.. where am I ... or trials...

really though... don't fix something that ain't broke

Your trials seem to work for you... they might not do as good for oxcash or something... but amateur sites need higher trials - lower monthly rate structure!

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 11:03 PM

why does an amateur site have to have a lower monthly rate vs other sites? please explain, im very curious. my site prob has more content than almost any othe site out there, so why should my pricing structure be lower than some others?

I would love to hear what you have to say.

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~~~

MarkTiarra · 10-07-2002, 11:08 PM

Desirae - I have a very simple way for you to answer your own question about trial vs. no trial. Please email me at [email protected] and I'll hook you up with the Xcel thing you need to forcast it.

If it works , why would you go back to a normal monthly rate ?

I read on another thread that you have a live streaming cam in your bedroom at 15 frames a sec. Cut down the frame rate to save a bit on bandwidth. Keep if affordable for the member because you will make more in the long run with recurring !

Pornkings · 10-07-2002, 11:09 PM

Think of it this way.

your a surfer you come across a site that gives you a month trial for a $1.
Then you come across a site which offers you a 5 day trial for 9.95 or what ever.

What would you choose?

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 11:12 PM

honestly, if i were a guy i would pick the site that i think is the best value. it could be the one for 1.00 or the 9.95. im sure a guy like you porn king could buy a pair of shoes for 10.00 or you could buy a pair of shoes for 80.00, which pair are you going to choose porn king? shoes are shoes right? =)~

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~~~

MarkTiarra · 10-07-2002, 11:13 PM

Guys, why guess what anyone would or wouldn't choose. This is the Internet and as such it is the most powerful tool for testing in almost real time. It's not like you have to wait 6 months to tally results from a TV or print campaign. If you have 5 or 6 different configurations for trial prices, monthly, etc.. try all of them a week at a time then go back and compare results. DO projections on those results over 12 months or so and you have your answer.

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~~~

You are high

Our sites and most sponsors have like 50 times the amount of content in them then what you have and they have a selection of many girls to chat with one on one.

It doesn't matter they will all cancel because they just want a quik fix till they get there bill.

trials will never go away till the free shit is gone period

its all about giving them a deal for a low price
I explained this all to you before. do you want me to put the top sponsors on the phone with you to educate you. they will all say the same thing. we all know this because we have tried everything you have dreamed of and more.

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 11:18 PM

do these girls take off there close for the men? do things they say? do they have sound on there cams? just curious, i would love to know the names of these sites that have way more content

If its the same shoe i will only pay $10 don't think I'm gonna pay $80

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 11:22 PM

so your telling me that when you go out with your girl you put on your 10.00 shoes? come on, guys will pay a higher price for a better product. and dont tell me that all sites are the same =)~. i dont personally get the 1.00 gig, but if it works for you that is great

Come on I had many sites just like yours.
I dropped them.

how about www.camgirlslive.com

I also had a site with 6 hot girls that did everything they were told with full audio and video through real networks.
It was called therealworld.com

Right now I have many one on one chat rooms in our members section

MarkTiarra · 10-07-2002, 11:27 PM

Hope I'm not butting in on the discussion over content/why guys join. But I've done over 2500 sites in 7 years now and I can say with a fair amount of confidence the following:

Guys almost always join because a particular model or series of shots got him excited enough to join.

Guys almost always stay because of frequently updated content and good variety.

There are of course always exceptions, but this is vastly the rule.

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 11:29 PM

do your chat rooms have a live streaming cam with sound where they can scream your name out while they play with themselves? thats what i do for my members, talk about retention! lol or are they those rooms where its 80 guys telling a girl in clothes what to do and she never does it? serious, if you do i would love to know who your getting that content from, if its yours....good job!

Desirae Spencer =)~~

MarkTiarra · 10-07-2002, 11:33 PM

But now I can finally tell her that someone stepped up to the plate and took the crown and title too... and there's your SN to prove it. =]

Anyway.... glad to see someone else plays the testing game.

Desirea Yes yes yes they are all private sessions.

And I did what your doing 4 years ago. So I know what type of numbers and wht the reacurring is like . plus we added all our other content to those amatuer sites to beef it up even more.

we pay like 15k a month in content

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 11:35 PM

i would love to know what content package it is roger, can you tell me who your buying it from?

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~~

MarkTiarra · 10-07-2002, 11:36 PM

PK, were the Amateur sites being operated by the actual girls though? One thing I found is that no matter how hard many of my clients tried, they couldn't turn good profit with AM sites but a girl would do a site of her own with all the same bells and whistles and it would do just fine. There's something to be said with a site that gets a true heart and soul put into it.

Desirae · 10-07-2002, 11:38 PM

thanks mark, i bust my ass to make my site the best it can be. and it has paid off huge! your right mark, its about updates and keeping it personal.

Desirae Spencer =)~~~~~

Morgan · 10-07-2002, 11:43 PM

Desirae - post some numbers on those $10, 5 day trials. If you up your trials.. please come back and post how that goes. As an advertiser, I like trials better. Havent had much luck with monthly signups like I have with trials. However, I notice about 70% of my trials cancel.

Wouncie - post some numbers on those $20, 3 day trials. What is your trial to monthly CR. Also, Please ICQ me. 60946828

BrownBear - I agree trials may not work for some types of traffic but for others (TGP) it does. You have some heavy stats to back
up your comment? or are you guessing? Do you run a paysite or just promote ARS sites?

Dugmore - I totally agree. Not offering a trial and popping up the trial offer will work great (for some traffic -- TGP'ers fucking hate popups though).

Pornkings - I agree the surfer would rather signup for a site with one month access for 1$ rather than 5 days for 10$ but it really depends on how bad they want access. This just shows that the usual adult paysites should offer such discounts and the exclusive sites dont really have to.

I have come to the conclusion that the monthly price doesnt really make a difference as long as its in the range of 20-30/month... and trials are always a plus. As for not fixing things that arent broke... How will that ever make things better though? You will never progress until you experiment.

LOL

you can have the title I don't want to be the Pornking
Its just a branded name for all our programs.

I am not a Pornking just a tadpole

sexyavs · 10-08-2002, 03:44 AM

I had to shut down my amateur site.. the market for guys with saggy tits just seemed to die..

Maybe I will open it back up if there is enough demand!

I will update frequently!

DO projections on those results over 12 months or so and you have your answer. =] __________________ Retired Pornosticator

But I've done over 2500 sites in 7 years now and I can say with a fair amount of confidence the following: Guys almost always join because a particular model or series of shots got him excited enough to join. Guys almost always stay because of frequently updated content and good variety. There are of course always exceptions, but this is vastly the rule. __________________ Retired Pornosticator

My lady used to call me the UKOP (undisputed king of porn) way back when because I kept getting in the papers and shit for the not for profit work. But now I can finally tell her that someone stepped up to the plate and took the crown and title too... and there's your SN to prove it. =] Anyway.... glad to see someone else plays the testing game. __________________ Retired Pornosticator

One thing I found is that no matter how hard many of my clients tried, they couldn't turn good profit with AM sites but a girl would do a site of her own with all the same bells and whistles and it would do just fine. There's something to be said with a site that gets a true heart and soul put into it. __________________ Retired Pornosticator

If you up your trials.. please come back and post how that goes. As an advertiser, I like trials better. Havent had much luck with monthly signups like I have with trials. However, I notice about 70% of my trials cancel. Wouncie - post some numbers on those $20, 3 day trials. What is your trial to monthly CR. Also, Please ICQ me. 60946828 BrownBear - I agree trials may not work for some types of traffic but for others (TGP) it does. You have some heavy stats to back up your comment? or are you guessing? Do you run a paysite or just promote ARS sites? Dugmore - I totally agree. Not offering a trial and popping up the trial offer will work great (for some traffic -- TGP'ers fucking hate popups though). Pornkings - I agree the surfer would rather signup for a site with one month access for 1$ rather than 5 days for 10$ but it really depends on how bad they want access. This just shows that the usual adult paysites should offer such discounts and the exclusive sites dont really have to. I have come to the conclusion that the monthly price doesnt really make a difference as long as its in the range of 20-30/month... and trials are always a plus. As for not fixing things that arent broke... How will that ever make things better though? You will never progress until you experiment. __________________ PornstarPlatinum.com \| TransErotica.com
