Does any busines actually happen here? If so what?
 

TRAFFIC
Not more than once...

ADVERTISING
Too expensive and a lack of good websites

AFFILIATES

A few seem to join from here but most don't seem to have any traffic or sales

What am I missing ?

No, you're not missing anything. ^^

There is all kinds of top notch deals closed on GFY.
:thumbsup

I use GFY to take a break during my work day. Thats about it...

i get a new customer from at least half of my posts. if that tells u anything lol

most visitors on here are lurkers - non-industry people hanging out.

Don't pass the blame ...

Well, I'm here to do business. How can I help you? Anyone looking for another affiliate program to promote? Try my Aggressive Dollars CC Bill affiliate program located in my sig. I'm advertising too. Got a little rotating ad down below, not too pricey.

Now on the other hand, I've gotten a lot of excellent information on affiliates, scripts, ideas, programs and other stuff, that frankly, I don't know where I would have ever come across this info if not GFY.

Other than that, the place is a fucking dump.

Any examples on what we are missing ?

Plenty business done here.

Yep, I sell content. New clients hire me to shoot the cute new girls I find and there is lots more business done here, you just need to wade through the bullshit.

believe it or not.. most of the older affiliates got their own merchant accounts and run their own little thing.

some other older affiliates, like me, now offer an industry services using our old properties.

some adapted ~ some died

No 90% of the people on GFY are broke surfers... or just broke.

Of course business gets done here...

I'm just a lowly affiliate, and I've bought and sold domain names, bought content, bought graphics/banners/web design, bought and sold scripts, done link trades, bought traffic.. I even met my hosting provider here.

Yes, business happens here.

GFY is a fun place to promote your brand while getting almost endless freedom to talk about anything you want. It's a time consuming distraction from my busy day that often turns into new business too.

Are you making business happen or are you waiting for business to come to you?

If you wait for business to come to you on gfy.... at times you'll be waiting, a lot. If you start contacting people that post here, most will do business with you if you have something they can benefit from.

Business on GFY nowadays consists of somehow humiliating someone or some sponsor who owes you money into paying you.

get tons of business from my sig.

I actually get quite a bit of new business from here.

I hope soooooooooooooo

Just placed an order, thanks!!!

Dear Mr. Maxim Ford, I know you think you are great and everyone else sucks and I know you think it is cool to pretend to be some chick named Cherry Chapman . . . but maybe the problem is not actually everyone else.

Ever think that maybe you are not doing more business on GFY because you come with a completely disingenuous pitch, so nobody want to buy or support the fake nonsense you are arrogantly selling?

The people who were concrete in their answers talked about subjects that we are not involved in....We shoot and keep our own content, we don't promote anyone else or want to join any affialate scheme...

We were looking for interesting quirky websites to advertise on.....not found...

good advertising at a reasonable price, not found

Affiliates that can deliver sales.....found but not here.....

Maybe we get sales from just posting pics like this.....?

Why would anyone want to advertise your sites for you?

You and your content are unoriginal, self-congratulatory, and fake fake fake. Not to mention often out of focus and poorly photoshopped.

Every post you make is so selfish and self-centered, you are an embarrassment to yourself and to anyone trying to make quality sites for real.

links pulled

For money...

all business is cumshot related.


Also if you haven't noticed adult is hurting a bit these days

Didn't you already say that nobody, including you, is making any money from your sites? As I recall, you said it was because what you are doing is original, unlike everyone else. Not sure if I recall the precise details, but I think that was the gist of it.

If you wouldn't promote anyone else for money, why would you think anyone else would promote you, especially when they probably won't make money and you are a big fake pretending to be just a sexy girl? I mean, aside from you thinking everyone else is venal and unimaginative, unlike your amazingness.

No, did not say that. Our films make money, for us and our affiliates. Also where they are shown on Cable TV and VOD.

We would not promote anyone as we have a paysite and are about making that work.

I don't pretend to be anything, that is all in your imagination. Like everyone I feel free to state my opinions, as do you. You do it in a bitter and vindictive way, posting personal information, which is not relevent, why I have know idea. Maybe you are just not a nice person.

Oh please, where does anything you have a hand in play on cable television?

Was that not you who spammed tons of my sites over and over and over again, saying bizarrely rude things for someone who was knocking on my door and asking for a favor?

Was that not you who asked for feminist support for your female-fronted project, when you do not have a woman-run project? Why do you pretend to be a woman named Cherry Chapman, when you are patently a man named Maxim Ford? Why do you lie to all the woman-supporting sites you trick into giving you links?

And how can you think those lies will work on GFY with serious industry people?

Do you genuinely not see how everything you post is selfish and self-centered? Do you really not see how it is your actions which are the issue?

It amazes me that you can pat yourself on the back so hard for how original and great you are, when everything you do is both trite and unbalanced in favor of yourself over anyone else ever.

blacklisted the OP's site for trying to use reverse psychology to gain affiliates.

Oh please, where does anything you have a hand in play on cable television?

DUST cable Tv in the neatherlands

Cinema Erotique is run by a lot of people not just me, women have a big role in making our films, we have never been interested in the idea of feminist porn, but inteligent erotic films. I use the name Cherry Chapman rather than my real name. I have never pretended to be a woman.

We sent lots of e-mails looking for people interested in the same ideas. Thats how we have the good affiliates we have.

Serious industry people - very funny !

And of course like everyone here I try to promote our site.

So again YOU are the one who is wrong on all counts...

There would be business handled here if there was a PM system.

Otherwise things are just taken to ICQ or Email, why would anyone discuss business in a public forum? Use GFY to find people to contact about certain business, not TO contact them.

cherry you sound sexy

Well, I don't read Dutch, but I do read Webmasterese and that site Alexas at nearly 4 million. Not that it matters, as, for the topic at hand, you stated in this very thread that your site does not convert for affiliates from GFY.


Yes, you surely did send lots of emails. You spammed so many of my sites over and over and over again and refused to stop your mass emails where you talked about how everyone else was unoriginal and thus should promote you. Do you really not get why your sales pitch of "you suck, now send Cherry traffic" is lame, incredibly rude, and doomed to failure?

Not to mention how selfish your spam pitches all were, in addition to being rude and lame.

Are you forgetting that you refused to stop spamming me and my sites and were so relentlessly egregious in your obnoxious repetitive spamming that I finally had to file a complaint with your host about your emailing, something I have never done before or since?

Lots of people use nicknames on the internet without having your obvious intent to deceive.

Are you claiming that you email sites talking about how woman-friendly you are and signing your name Cherry Chapman and your intent is not to mislead people into thinking you are a woman?

Are you claiming that you post on GFY with the name Cherry and it is not your intent to make people think that you are just a sexy girl? Even though you worked so hard to hide your true identity that you got GFY admins to delete posts which simply pointed out your public whois info.

I don't talk to anyone else on GFY the way I talk to you, so maybe you think I am just a big meanie, but it is more likely that the magic ingredient here is you and your manners and your deception and your lack of professionalism.

I found my hosting company here on GFY.

I find tons of tools I regularly use here on GFY.

I find tons of information I regularly turn into cash here on GFY.

When I was banned for a month. I actually felt it financially.

So yeah... I guess business does get done here.

This is the only place I know I can make $ and contacts for free. Also I get a ton of information which you cannot put a price tag on. I love GFY

there used to be much more biz done before than now...

You called me a liar, saying that I did not have our films on Cable TV. I sent you proof, in the form of their website. You can translate it with Google...

It is the website of the Cable TV station not VOD. There you can see are films playing.

What I call myself is my affair and it was in no way in order to decieve, my first pet was a dog called cherry.

You don't have to be a woman to be woman friendly. I understand your confusion.

I don't use my real name for the same reason all people use handles. I have another career and family. YOU posted my real name and address....

You are the only person who claims to be misled, and that reflects upon you. Maybe you think the Captain has a ship, Bare footsies walks around with no shoes....

You want to be an industry professional in an industry where they use amateur cameras to film teen girls of 25 to put on sites in less quality than DVD and call it HD...

I would say you have "issues"

Please, I called you selfish, rude, lame, unoriginal, unprofessional, a relentless incompetent spammer and a liar.

If you think that nobody in this business can be an industry professional because you have no respect for the business you are trying to be in, I would say you have issues. Why would any professional support you in any way, when you clearly have total contempt for everyone in this industry?

You think your problem is that you are so original and great and everyone else sucks and should realize that they are contemptible and owe you free favors, when the actual problem is that you are a bad person.

nahhhhhhhhhhhhhh lolol

I need a woman like AmeliaG in my life ...

Hi Cherry,

let's touch beards!

xoxoxox

she called him on it. funny. and scary lol

FantasyOne plays on DirecTV, Time Warner, Playboy Channel, and Dish. i think Amelia was trying to say Cherry/Maxim doesn't play on a REAL cable channel that has more than 100 viewers lol

Thats why GFY was created pretty much.

I think you're confusing the availability of business opportunities through the board with your personal ability to do business.

Just a suggestion, but intead of blaming the medium you are trying to do business through maybe take the opportunity to fine tune how your are doing business yourself.

You are a clueless prick, a liar, you pretend to be a woman and you make the worst porn anyone has ever seen.

So no, your not missing anything, people wont send you sales because your a twat and your stuff is shit.

I asked the question about what busines was done here. Interesting the vitrol some of you have to a person you have never met.

If you just insult the person asking that does reflect badly on you not me.

I gather that most think that there is no point in

buying Traffic

Advertising

etc....

The other busines opportunities do not effect us

Then she should have said that. She said I was lying, I proved her wrong. she did not apoligize, you make excuses for her. GFY

What exactly are you a professional at ? other than name calling.

Is it photography? Video, marketing? based on what, professional qualifications ? What are they?

How do you know what things I respect, we have never met, you know nothing about me.

Thats you argument to tell me what I think and then say how wrong it is.

If I want to say I have no respect for a person or group of people I will tell them.

I have never thought of answering the question "Do you respect a group of porn makers who you have never met ?

Maybe you should post the question and I will think of an answer.
