Is it possible for a site to survive... - GoFuckYourself.com

Is it possible for a site to survive on photo content alone these days? Without video of any kind? Or did that model die off completely in the 90s?

thoughts?

ottopottomouse · 11-24-2010, 03:03 PM

Yes.

Art nude.

DWB · 11-24-2010, 03:05 PM

Yes. If you have what someone wants.

I am a photo guy. I prefer them over videos most of the time.

The question is, can you sell a site that is photos only. I would say yes IF the tour was not full of large images and you limited your FHG and carefully selected the images.

They say an image speaks a thousand words...

given not much is said in a video beside grunting, a tasty photo will easily win over a video any day

jailbait sites.

Amputate Your Head · 11-24-2010, 03:14 PM

glad someone is using it intellectually

It's possible, I believe. Imagine a popular model like Faith Nelson or whatever running a photo-only site. People would still sign up.

PS: I saw Jill Kelly on cam the other day. She looks fantastic.

matuloo · 11-24-2010, 03:34 PM

Of course it is, but it has to be something unique.

Do you know the model Denise Milani? In case you can get her nude people will pay for her images for sure, no need for a video or anything.

If softcore only sites can sell, photo only sites can sell too.

But, unless its something exceptional, its not gonna be enough to run a good affiliate program with the site I am afraid.

It would be a specific site for a specific traffic type.

loreen · 11-24-2010, 03:52 PM

Yes, I have a few photo only blogs that do just fine

fatfoo · 11-24-2010, 03:53 PM

It is possible.

Amp, take it from someone who runs 20+ (successful) paysites:

No one under 35 pays for porn
Guys over 40 pay for porn
Guys over 40 were raised on Playboy, Penthouse and Hustler
Guys over 40 have longer attention spans and like to LOOOOOOOOOOOK at a photo, and fantasize.
We sell Fantasy.

SO:
IF you have over-40, MILF-type traffic then go for it. Lots of tube traffic and it's a waste of time. Blog traffic good, TGP traffic good, cam/dating traffic not so much.

Good luck!

u-Bob · 11-24-2010, 03:57 PM

short answer: yes

interesting.... all very good points

CaptainWolfy · 11-24-2010, 05:28 PM

of course it's possible!

wehateporn · 11-26-2010, 06:09 PM

Yep, not many videos on my site and I get mainly over 50's surfing as most don't know how to find stuff for free

Jakez · 11-26-2010, 07:15 PM

Yes of course. People need to stop thinking in this imaginary world where it takes a miracle to make a fucking sale.

realsexibarbie · 11-26-2010, 07:39 PM

yes DEFINETLY!

I'm running an all non-nude photo only site at the moment for a local girl. Doing pretty good with low traffic so far.

GAMEFINEST · 11-26-2010, 08:28 PM

i prefer vids

Rochard · 11-26-2010, 09:05 PM

I'm a photo guy too. I don't want to wait to watch a video; I want to instantly see a picture.

Even threads with Youtube videos in them. I tend to skip them. I just hit one with a new movie and I had to wait for the video to load a dozen times.
