Greetings from PlentyOfFish.com!
 
Hey guys,

Just wanted to come on here to see if I could help any of you adult guys expand your business into mainstream :) Not gonna throw up a pitch on here cuz I hate that shit too! I've been at POF for well over 2 years now and am considered the absolute authority on all things related to advertising on POF. Marina over at sexsearch.com suggested I come hang out so here I am!

My advertising blog is here (includes GANGSTER information/case studies/tips): blog.ads.pof.com - all content here is free for you to check out.

Mostly, I'm just looking forward to meeting with y'all and making some new people from a different side of the industry. If there is any interest in advertising with us, I'll post some info but not if it's uninvited.

Cheers,

Ben

Treat your profile as an ad campaign: Split test pictures/profile information, view dates as "clicks" and getting laid as "conversions"... optimize until you have an acceptable ROI :)

But... sounds like you should have a much easier time with some of the sites I see advertised here LOL

I'm actually working on creatives for a POF campaign so I'd love for you to post any info or tips you have. I'm also checking out your blog right now...

I'd have to look at your stuff individually, send me an email? Better yet, run a bit of traffic and let our users tell you if your campaigns work out not :) If this your first one? If so, we definitely need to talk so I can make sure your first few steps are headed in the right direction.

I got laid with zoosk and that's a real pos scammy website. stupid girls

brentbacardi 01-30-2012 09:39 PM
Welcome and Go Fuck Yourself!

You should make the site more friendly towards couples, me and my girlfriend try to get pussy on POF but its annoying because couples usually list themselves as girls (just like we are) but then we message girls we like and they end up being couples, we cant always tell since their is no couple option.

Just a suggestion!

Hawkins 01-31-2012 03:11 AM
Welcome to GFY:)
BTW why do you had so crazy captcha?

Hi Ben, hit me up [email protected] I'd like to talk to you about something when you got some time.

jspot 02-02-2012 07:12 PM
I just started my site a few weeks ago I am still finishing the design and pricing. I am interested in advertising on POF I am very new to this so I will need a breakdown in real terms how it works.

Theo 02-03-2012 01:32 AM
Welcome Ben, great to have you here.

Sure, let's talk once everything is finished on your site and you're ready to promote. We are a mainstream site so we don't allow the advertising of adult sites so I hope you aren't making an adult one!

I am not sure if anyone should run an adult campaign on POF.
I've had one that was doing good and my account was close.

The fun thing I found someone else running my ad and lander
still today?

So,be worried on Ben and his offer too help you

igio 02-05-2012 09:43 AM
I thought POF did not allow adult.

Ben if this is not the case drop me a line: [email protected]

BenPOF 02-07-2012 05:29 PM
We don't allow adult on POF. However, if there are any guys who are looking to crossover into mainstream (non-adult) I'm here to help. Hence why this is posted in the mainstream section of the forum :)

Vendzilla 02-24-2012 03:28 PM
Hey Ben, thanx for all the fun I had on POF!

Hit me up please here I have something I would like to get on POF

Would be interested in hearing...

ad formats available
ad types CPC, CPM etc...
geo targeting?
and the lowest amount I could start with to test it out as I have a few mainstream sites currently with more in the works.

I've tried to buy advertising on POF using the least adult related ad as possible and it gets rejected every single time. The only ads of mine that have been approved haven't done well. If you have some suggestions I'd love to discuss things to get things working so I can do a big buy.

1-800-313-WETT 02-27-2012 12:09 PM
Even our free video chat was rejected so I am not sure what you are offering here.

Hmm I can look into it and give you some suggestions but I'd rather not out your campaigns on a forum full of your potential competitors LOL email me and we'll hash it out.

We don't view paid dating sites as competition. We exist in a mutually beneficial ecosystem :) They buy our traffic to convert users to paid and we get our traffic sold. It's a pretty sweet deal.

GFY is for Adult Webmasters - that is why it is called Adult Webmaster Forum, can I go to POF and solicite adult webmasters?

You're better off with a product that teaches guys how to get more girls. Getting ex back products don't do as well.

Make money online products have worked in the past, from what I've heard from other affiliates, all the "good" ones are now dead. But the vertical does have potential if you have a good offer.

Yes you can direct link :)

If we had a section that was labeled "Adult Business Discussions", sure. I believe I'm in the right section as I'm discussing mainstream business in the "mainstream business discussion" section :P Otherwise, there wouldn't need to be a distinct section for this purpose if everyone on GFY was adult.

Were you going after hot chics who were looking to get down with couples? Probably one of your fellow advertisers trying to sling lead gen to their site LOL
