hey all... if any of you have some time, i'd really appreciate some feedback / comments on this site:

http://www.erotisearch.com

go ahead, be brutal - whether you don't like the site or the concept, or if you do like it, let me know that, too.

and any suggestions for improvement would be most welcome.

thanks

what's the concept? i've suffered some blunt force head trauma, i'm kind of slow now. I don't know what it is and what's supposed to happen with that download thing of yours. Is it a browser? When you say you have hundreds of thousands of pics and videos where are these coming from? How do you make money from it? You review sites i guess. What's so good about it that surfers will want to keep using it?

are you wearing panties? are you a guy or chick?

nice layout

ravyn · 01-01-2003, 08:37 AM

here's some background info:

i've signed up for a bunch of sponsor programs and put them all into a database and categorized all the links and such. people download the software, which is basically a browser with some modifications, and then they click around, find the type of smut they're interested in and get a list of sites in that category along with a short description.

so in theory, then the surfer clicks over to one of these sites and signs up. and then, in theory, i make some money.

what's good about it (or, why would people continue to use it) ability to block pop-up consoles, categorized lists of sites, and ability to hide your surfing history.

this is a highly experimental project. either it will work, or i'll get a tax writeoff. we'll see.

Looks good but you should come up with a better warning page it looks to much like an ars page

Paul Markham · 01-01-2003, 08:58 AM

It seems like a very good idea. But I would make it a little clearer what it does and what the features, advantages and benefits are.

Take a little bit of the space from explaining what a download is and give iit to explaining what they save by downloading it.

Then get rid of the over aged girl on the front. She is 10 years pass her sell by date and was not so hot when she was younger. I can't even remember her name.

I agree with charly, it looks good but what the hell is it? Explain it a little better so surfers know what exactly it is your offering.

washiez:

you know, that's what i thought originally, but then was convinced by my designer that 1024 wide was the new way to go.

and i'm starting to think that maybe i was told this because they didn't want to redo everything. hell, i run 1920x1200 on my monitor and i don't even have a browser window that wide most of the time.

i still don't understand why the decision to do this download thing when you could have set it up as a website. I think a normal website which can be bookmarked would be more successful. Do you have much traffic? Not too many people like to download software to view porn.

look at http://www.adultmonkey.com

these review sites are getting popular, why not just do something like that?

your thing looks good, just don't think it's a great idea compared to a website.

these browser things have been tried as long as i can remember but i don't know of any of them that have been that successful.
maybe those pic finder things which steal pics are, dunno.
