BravoTube.net and other sites
 

1) BravoTube.net, looks like around 1,240,000 visits per day - million per day and the #67th busiest xxx site in the world, this is according to SimilarWeb.com. I just noticed disallow all in robots.txt, even google.com and bing.com - is this not strange? Why would they do that, is there a good reason for this?

2) I think that this site is not that old, not as old as DefineBabe.com, BabesAndStars.com and other sites. When you start a site like this, how do you get from the level of 0 traffic to 50,000 per day, lets say and I am not even talking about the million something that they have? Do you buy links and traffic or how does it work? What would be the general method of this? Buy for a certain period of time, like three years and with this the traffic grows and stays? I mean if you pay for links you don't make money and this is the overall goal of doing this - making profit, so how does it work? How would you grow a good general tube from 0 people per day to 50,000 or 100,000 or more?

I am working on a site like this for over a year now and I am not sure what I will be doing as far as growing the traffic. I kind of have an idea but I am not sure what is the general method of doing this. Maybe somebody knows and does not mind sharing through Skype or something like this?

interesting...

they buy traffic.
they buy backlinks.

So this is like marketing budget for an xxx website and this needs to be done? The website will get more visibility and the money should come back if the site is good (I mean people like it, come back to it, this is what is needed in the end)? So basically the method is to set up a good site and then buy links (and traffic)? If there would be a book about it this is what it would say, most likely or are there any other methods of going from 0 to 50,000 or 100,000 per day. I imagine there is hundreds of these methods if I would be searching on the Internet and in the books, but how would BravoTube.net do it, so to speak, the leading, longer term people. I guess it depends on their position too. If they started 10+ years ago and have a lot of aged sites with links this is different than starting from 0 now, and this is the situation that I have.

I am thinking - I need $$$ to push my site after I make it, buying links (and not necessarily traffic) would be like advertising budget that I need to have. I cant probably push it to 50,000 a day for free, correct?

steal more

Could be how they using same descriptions for multiple tube sites so in order to avoid duplication they de-indexed that one.

So to grow a good and 50,000+ pages site with no links, fresh - pay for links and also possibly get some paid traffic and think about it as advertising money and something that needs to be done? This is what people would do, "normally"?
