Original Content sites that do not use endless pop-ups are cool! Soon surfers will demand these type of sites because of the all in one rip off sites that promise everything. Quality over Quanity!:321GFY

sinfulone 12-29-2002 08:51 PM

It sure is nice to see honest and
sincere business people like
jennycards and the few others that
have jumped in to help out.

Aways keep these things in mind ....

1. If you think for second that it's a
smart business decision to send your
traffic to the highest bidder, you are
so wrong. Do some homework alot
these guys have public records on
the net like at the FTC for example.

2. I'd be asking myself how they
managed to cough up milions and
millions of dollars in fines for being
dishonest. It would also brother me
that the millions they paid didn't
appear to hurt them any and it's back
to biz with the same scam just refined.

3. We live in a world where the best
offer more time's than not carries the
highest risk of us getting fucked.
"If it's too good to be true, it's not".

I doubt anything I've said is anything
you didn't already know. I've been
watching this massive shell game go
on for over a year. The traffic senders
don't have a lot of options. Even I
can't tell you whose a thief and whose
not.

If I was a traffic sender though I would
look at this way. If a lot of companies
are offering 1-3 times as much as what
the initial sale puts in their pocket then
a red flag would go up. Because it
looks like their competing for losses
which doesn't make sense. And I don't
buy this upsell bullshit excuse.

I would probally take some of my traffic
and send it to the programs that offer
a lot less. To me it means they have
less of a need to fuck you. But that's
just me...

The only sure way to overcome what's
going on is to be the receiver of your
own traffic, have your own sites. A lot
of you guys seem to be friends it sure
would be a lot more profitable.

Anyway Happy New Year to All!:moon

sinfulone 12-29-2002 09:09 PM

I saw the Lightspeed banner above
my last message so I went to check
them out.

60% of the sale and 60% of any sales
of that member forever.

I really shouldn't to have to spell it out
to you but I will.... a 60/40 deal is an
optimal and fair partnership. They
have a lot less sites, which means
that they have targeted the surfer for
the best case scenerio. And best of all
they aren't as likely to have a steep
overhead to deal with so the likely
hood of you getting fucked by these
guys is nearer to the zero 0 mark than
the 200% one.

Just my opinion , this has been an
unpaid and unsolicted advertisment.
for Lightspeed Cash.

Truly the tool of the weak. Lots of it going on in here! I give jenny respect for speaking up about this, it is left to everyone else to draw their own conclusions based on the reactions of those on the 'other side' of the argument.

A good GFY piss!


your giving someone respect for making false accusations about our members section and how we conduct business.
Infact I feel we deserve an apology

Like I said if someone thinks they have a better members section than us other than FM:winkwink: lets compare I've seen just about everyone's out there.
we analize everything out there and then we try to make it better.

If you think exclusive content matters your wrong. good content I can understand that matters. you think surfers know if you have exclusive content soon the reality sites will become cookie cutters if they already havn't.

like I've said before we have done it all there is nothing new here that you have brought up and there is a reason why the big sponsors have cookie cutter sites as you call them.

show me a site that converts and retains better with exclusive content and I'll prove you wrong. And show you a cookie cutter site that does better.

people jumping on the band wagon bashing sponsors need to show numbers if you havn't tried us out. you have no room to talk.

we have done the voyour houses which was a reality site and it was live not just a video that got alot of press back in the day when things were new, we have done the amateur sites with live cam girls and exclusive content, the mega site the niche sites...ETC.

now we are launching new niche programs like sunny leone and brittany andrews which will be exclusive content.
will it change the numbers? let me answer that for you NO.

but it will have an apeal that surfers will like and they will join because of the $1 trial for a month. And if they are satisfied they won't cancel.

I can still say we convert the best thru 3rd party tracking and I bet we retain better than most. go figure
http://www.thestatistician.com/03.html

We work hard to give the webmasters the most out of there traffic and we work just as hard to give surfers there money's worth.

I personally think its wrong to charge for a membership upfront or a high $ trial. thats why we give them a month.


ok Fire away

Kimmykim 12-29-2002 11:15 PM

So tell us there sinfulone, who are these mysterious programs you allude to having paid millions in FINES to the ftc?

I'd like you to name at least two.

KK your up don't you ever sleep i thought you were sick.:winkwink:

let me come over and rub vics all over your chest.

Sometime I feel its pointless to try to educate some people like today.. I just don't get it. I wish i had sponsors back in the day tell me how it is. so we wouldn't have to go thru all the trial and errors.
Back when we had to learn it all on our own.

you have worked for a processor so you know what the real deal is.
Its funny how some webmasters think they understand the business without running a company from A-Z.

By the way ... though some of you might think I am a pussy I do have a dick between my legs :thumbsup

you had a month to cancel its only $37 after that

If you saw our members section you would have never gotten xxxpix like you posted. you got our fake or 404 members section for some reason.
did you see a girl holding up a note welcoming you with your username?

Check us out again or try us out I'm sure you will be happy with the results

And for all of you who understand and had my back:thumbsup

there are some well known.. reputable people on that list.. Just shows me that even honest programs can fall victim of false accusations.

for example RJB.. maxcash.. arnt they like the oldest sponsor in this industry? I have never heard a negative word about them.

Can you do that (as you claim) with, oh, KarupsPC (which costs less than $30/mo, BTW).

You're right in that customers probably don't even understand what "exclusive content" even means, BUT they are not dummies, and if they're seeing content they've seen many times before, they are going to say "Fuck you!" to your $37.

And BTW, I don't think there's a site in the world worth $37/mo, but give me a freebie membership and if I'm blown away I'll come back and say so.

Kimmykim 12-30-2002 02:47 AM

oh sinfulone, did you actually read any of these? or did you just decide to post what appears to be a larger list than it really is?

RJB -- was not fined millions and did not pay millions in fines. Read it.

Voice Media -- was not fined millionsand did not pay millions in fines. Read it.

XPICS -- was not fined millions and did not pay fines of millions. Read it.

Charlo -- was not fined millions and did not pay fines of millions. Read it.

Hell, most of these people were not fined at all, unless you are confusing escrow with a punitive action.

Carlos Perreira? He ever turn up anywhere? Hard to collect from someone that doesn't necessarily exist.

I also find it funny how you've lumped a bunch of audiotext in with the internet stuff. And how you've pulled up the same case in more than one instance but listed it as if it were different.

I guess that goes to show that you can try to make a case for anything.

no prob just shoot me an email but its a dollar for a month just uncheck the cross sales or cancel them before the free trials are up.
Its a $1 trial for a month

[B]Oh man, has this thread taken a turn for the funny.

For every sponsor that shaves, there are 100 affiliates that cheat and steal. And 1000 surfers that lie and dodge and have figured out the many many ways to get off without paying for it.

It's all about the numbers, there is nothing else to this.

============================



That's interesting...

If I shaved someone's earning I would
expect them to try to fuck me back so
I miss your point on that one....

If I was an adult surfer and a sponser
butt fucked my credit card for doing
business with them, I would find every
way I could to fuck them back.
again I miss your point.....

Perhaps you place to much importance
on your economic teachings. Maybe
your economics teacher forgot to tell
you that--economist aren't accurate,
it's all bullshit, it's never worked
and it never will, in fact the weather
man is more accurate.

And the Law of Diminishing Returns
and the Law of Averages might apply
to dog food and butt plugs but it has
nothing to do with providing adult
entertainment to an audience.

I do agree with you on one point.
It certainly is all about the numbers
and the more the sponsers short
change the consumers the more
traffic these guys have to send
just so they can eat.


You know something I'm beginning to
like you! Are you pretty?

Peace!

I'm not ripping on all the sponsers and
my comments weren't directed toward
you. I looked at your program and
there's nothing wrong it. It's easy to
see why you have high conversions.
I think the way you're going about it
is the right way and an honest way.

We're not here to sell content to
sponsers, we're here to help out this
industry. If you take a look at our
site you'll see that we're a little bit
different.

We may choose a sponser to work
with and if we do that sponser is
going to own a major share of this
market which will be a lot bigger than
it is now.

Impossible! Haven't you read GFY? Surfers are all evil nutcases who chargeback everything they ever buy! You can't make money off sites with good quality content, a decent price and honest advertising. You must slam them with popups untiil their comps crash! Get them to sign up for 3 day trials that will conveniently rebill at the low rate of $39.99 if the surfer doesn't cancel his 3 day trial within 24 hours! Rape, murder and plunder the surfer, for he is evil incarnate and the spawn of satan!

Man. Quiet is a n00b. :winkwink:

... who in this thread ever said that cheating is ok ?

That's the truly sad part. A number of questionable techniques to trick the surfer have been discussed in this thread. But many of the psuedo businessmen on this board think this is all just part of doing business and is fair and just to the consumer....If even a fraction of these practices were used in mainstream business, you would all be screaming bloody hell...

Here's just a few examples...

You join a site because it's a Mature" site. You pay your fee...go to the members area..and 99% of the content is anything but mature....Mainstream equivelent...You pay to go see the movie Harry Potter...they play Star Trek instead...both good movies, but I can guarantee that you will walk out or demand your money back. It doesn't matter if the second movie is good. That's not what you wanted to see.

Trials that need to be cancelled before end of trial: A mainstream equivelent: This would be similar to going to a ski hill and taking out some demos for 3 hours. But in the contract, somewhre on the 3rd page, after a bunch of other legal mumble jumble, there is a clause that says if you don't return them in 2 hours, you are charged full price for the skis. And the contract is not automatically given to you. You need to knock on a door at the back of the shop that says contract.

You rent a car for 2 days. Before the car is given to you, they clearly explain to you that the car needs to be back at XX time, or else you are charged for another day. On adult sites, not even in the T & C's does it ever state if a day is based on 24 hours or end of day...For example, Hustler's sites 1 day trials end at midnight. Try to find that anywhere in their terms. This goes completely against common sense.

Dialers...well there is a mainstream equivelent. It's called lottery scams. You know, the ones that say "dial this number to collect your prize". Unfortunately the number is an overseas number which bills you an outrageous amount per minute.


I'm starting to think that the reason many of you are in this business is because you simply lack the intelligence to make it in the real world.

We're not here to sell content to
sponsers, we're here to help out this
industry. If you take a look at our
site you'll see that we're a little bit
different.

We may choose a sponser to work
with and if we do that sponser is
going to own a major share of this
market which will be a lot bigger than
it is now.

:thumbsup

Sounds great I thought your comments were directed towards us
if we don't meet in LA we can meet in Vegas.
I tried to email you but it bounced back

Are you commenting on what Jennycards said?

If so he was misstaken because we have a ton of content in Mature with the rest of our other content behind it there are just so many old ladies that will posr nude and we are always adding more content.
I don't think you understand what it takes to run a successful paysite since you gave up and now send all your traffic to Danny ash.

But I can say our conversions kick ass, retention is great and chargebacks under 1%

and we are ranked number one on statistcian which is from a mix of traffic from what I understand.

Welcome to the real world..

I bet you fall for all those great deals from mainstream with rebates.
the cell phone is only $99 after you send in your $100 rebate which most people don't.

In everything you purchase there is some deceptive marketing

you think all the fast food chains offer 99 cent deals not knowing your going to upgrade to a supersize for only 50 cents more your crazy.
I can go on and on
do you know what all those small charges are on your phonebill
I bet you pay them all not knowing you don't have to. Etc.

Do you ever buy DVD's from the warehouse or virgin in bold it says $19.95 in small print after you send in your rebate or buy two more movies etc.

Oh and AOL's free 1000 min. CDroms they send out to everyone

these are all forms of deceptive marketing to get you to use there products or there services

Arggghh....
Rebates...these are not deceptive..nothing is hidden from the consumer...they know full well about the offer...try again

.99 cent specials upsells..again not deceptive...the consumer has full disclosure...and if he chooses to upgrade, he knows the price...and he doesn't just get to try the meal for 3 days, or reguritate 24 hours before the end of 3 days or pay for a bigger meal. I personally frequent Wendy's and NEVER supersize...but I know the choice is there...and there's no confusion about what it will cost me

Phone bills...again full disclosure...

DVD's..yep, I agree those are sleazy..

So once again you point to a couple of sleazy operations like DVD's to say...look ma, everyone is doing it....

Nope...everyone is not doing it.

That's the whole point..you guys don't have a fucking clue that people in the normal world don't operate this way. And the few that do...probably less then .01%...does not justify you using underhanded techniques...

This is pointless....and you are making my head hurt....

I've always been amazed by criminals they show on A & E, who are trying to get parolled...but don't have the common sense to understand that what they did was wrong...It's all getting clearer now...

So are you saying your marketing is in fact deceptive?

Kimmykim 12-30-2002 04:38 PM

ROFL, now this thread is getting funny.

Let's see, Columbia House, AOL, Efax, Book of the Month Club, BowFlex, a ton of shareware companies, shall I continue?

These are all purveyors of deceptive advertising using this analogy...

The bottom line is pretty simple. It is a consumers duty to read the terms of an offer before they make a purchase. It is the sellers duty to put the terms somewhere that they can be easily accessed.

There is no law that says the terms have to be in 200 point type on the join page, though there is a Visa rule that says the amount of the charge, when it recurs, how often it recurs and for what amount have to be on the join page.

And if we are going to talk about TOS -- well let's talk about Microsoft, AOL, Adobe, and every major software manufacturer out there. They use scrolling boxes for their terms on install, LONG scrolling boxes as a matter of fact.

How many of you read those terms? That's what I thought. But you still check the box, saying you've read the terms don't you? Therefore YOU, as a consumer, have put yourself in a position of blame, no one else has.

Now before some people start screaming that I am supporting cheating and defrauding surfers and cutting the heads off live bats, I am not.

I am simply bringing up the point that seems to be so deliberately overlooked by certain people. The consumer is going to do what he wants, whether it's because he's got a hand on his dick and the other one on his credit card OR because he's too fucking lazy to read the terms of service. It's pretty much irrelevant.

Now sites that say one thing on their join page disclosure and something wildly different in their terms, that I do not like and it does alot of damage. But let's don't confuse every site with being one of those sites

anyone can see what we do we have nothing to hide
I still don't know what you consider deceptive
because if you think what we do is considered deceptive your better off moving to some Island.

consumers have been brain washed and screwed over in many ways not from deceptive marketing but from the bumbarding of brands, People thinking they need to buy Nike or drink Coke
because these companies have billions to do it.

the news shows us what they want us to see and its not always the full facts. Is that deceptive or misleading?

the bottom line is I don't understand what some of you bitch about so I'm trying to learn from you

Are you going to be in Vegas?


Could this be love at first bite? I like you!

What you're saying is true.... but
consider for sec. that we don't live
and die by any set of rules. Since I'm
strangly attracted to your name
I'll give you our strategy in a nutshell.

Here's the industry right now -----------
there's no breathing room and that's
real bad, and it's going to get worse if
something isn't done.

Read this article, you may not agree
with all of it but it's worth your time.

http://www.sinamotion.com/sinamotion_large_005.htm

Our strategy: I have two.
The one we prefer is to partner with
one the honest sponsers and do this.

----sponser----
|


|
----the rest-----

Now we have a situation that is good.
It's called the chase and the reason
why it's a good thing is because it
puts the industry back into an active
state of innovation.

You studied economics... this industry
was born from innovation and the
last 5-6 year's it has been in the
second phase called imitation.

I'm seeing signs that tell me that the
imitation phase is maxed out which
if not corrected 2003 might be the year
the industry enters the third phase
which is FALLOUT.

---plan#2---
We'll create our own sponser program.
or we'll put the traffic senders in
business for free and they can pay us
back a % of their earnings. We have
access to 100's of hours of exclusive
content from around world including
our own.
------------------------------------------------

My partner and I are very nice people
and we're here to help and we have
the firepower and experience to do it.
It would be great if you old timer's
could find the energy again to roll up
your sleeves and help us out. I'm not
convinced there's enough time for us
to do it alone. But we will try if that
become's our only option.

[Vegas]
I'll be there for a day or so, my partner
will be there for a week. Is this an
invite to hang out naked in the hot tub
with you?

T.C.:winkwink:

Who said it was free lets have all the webmasters check it out
Its $1 for a month trial that we pay webmasters $25 on.and then it rebills at a full price so we pay you out up front and we don't make our money till month later

Yesterday was a reaction day I
responded to a few messages. In your
case you just happen to be innocently
caught in the crossfire. I should of
done a little investigating first but I
guess I got a little trigger happy. The
purpose of my messages are to see
who runs and hides and who doesn't,
it works really well. I now have you
and KimmyKim seperated from the
pack. I also noticed that you didn't get
much support from the other sponsers
and that tells me a lot also.

If people take a moment and study
Pornkings program it's really easy
to come to two conclusions.

1 - His program is workable without
having to shave. The word "FREE"
is a powerful incentive for any
consumer.

2 - He's basically giving up out of his
own pocket instead of offering you
something that would be coming
out of your pocket by shaving.

Another thing to keep in mind is that
the programs that offer you a pie in
the sky put a lot of pressure on an
honest businessman. It always results
in them absorbing more loss for their
choice of operating honestly. If the
industry lose's it's sponser's like
Pornkings for lack of your support you
will be the biggest suckers that have
ever lived.

While I, in no way, condone "shady" business practices, I have an observation to make...

When was the last time any of you met anyone who actually read each and every word of gloppy legalese on a mortgage or loan contract (car, boat, student loan promissory note, etc.), rental agreement from Blockbuster or the local Rent-To-Own store, etc? How many people actually read through their cable, satellite, or phone bills and know and understand exactly what they're being charged for? How many people actually KNOW that if you get hit with a foul ball or broken bat at a baseball game, neither the team nor the stadium can be held liable (it's right there on your ticket, by the way)?

My point is simply this: A vast majority of consumers only want to know the bottom line... how much is my payment, when is it due, what goods/services do I receive for my money. Car manufacturers, for example, NEVER put the terms of the warranty in the original contract, but just try getting warranty service if you don't follow their rules (which may or may not be referrenced in the vehicle owner's manual)! How many homeowners suddenly receive a notice in the mail regarding a 10-year balloon payment of $12,500 and have to scramble like hell to pull the cash together or risk losing their house?

The problem as I see it is that Joe Consumer knows damned good and well the legal system and the courts will back him up if he screams "foul" loudly enough. Doesn't matter that he didn't use common sense or read the fine print... if he thinks he's been wronged by some evil business owner, he can take them to court or get Visa to give him six months' credit for a one-month membership. I fail to see why ANY business, mainstream, adult, or internet, should have to babysit its customers. The onus should be on the consumer to prove they read the fine print, not on the business to defend why they have it. Ignorance should never be a viable defense.

The bottom line is that, while we may not like it, there is very little that goes on in the adult industry that hasn't been being done by mainstream businesses for years. Sure, there are some adult companies (and I'm not singling anyone out here) which have made it a habit to push the envelope to the extreme and I certainly don't agree with that tactic at all, but I still believe it's just the same old dance step with a funky new twist.
