    started as a hobby, new website

    Hello guys,

    So I started coding some porn gallery scrapers with python as a hobby, I was able to get more than 6k galleries of high quality. And now I decided to create a website to browse those galleries. The website still under development but the core feature is ready to check (Browsing galleries).


    The website is built with the most modern technologies currently, It’s running on Nextjs server side rendering reactjs hosted with cdns. Backend server database is cached with redis and also served via cdns. The site should be fast

    I will like some opinions on how I can improve the site. I still need to add a lot of stuff, for e.g: links to the actual site from where I scraped the gallery, filters, search and more.

    Thanks, I’ll wait for opinions

          Why you do not link to paysites? Also, your logo does not read clearly.

              Nice script and works well on all browsers and platform I tried it on... but...
              Unless you have an agreement with the content-owners(doubt it) you are not using the content legally, and could very soon end up without site and domain

                      Scraping content from other sites and no linking to them isn’t going to get you very far.

                      Spend you some brain.

                              relax guys, it's just a test site, it's not even indexed. OP plans to add a link to a site where the content originates from.

                                      Thanks for the reviews. Im still pretty new on the industry and I don't know much about the legal stuff I need to take care. this website is just under development, not published yet.

                                      If I remove the ads and I link to the actual pay site everything should be fine right? I just did this as a hobby. I don't want to have any legal issues from my hobby xD.

                                      I shut down the site for now. to avoid issues.

                                      Please let me know what should be the best way to proceed.

                                      Thanks in advance.

                                      can continue checking the site here url -> yikl-react.vercel.app

                                              I checked the site and it looks and works fine.

                                              As long as you don't publish the full sets but just 15-20 sample pics per gallery, and add a link to the actual paysite, you should be fine.

                                                      Maybe I should reduce resolution of images by 30% and add at the top and bottom of the gallery a text like "Check full HD images on -> paysite"

                                                                          I am surprised how many people don't understand this.

                                                                          Why do you think people buy / shoot content? With your logic anyone could download illegal copies and make paysites with them... instead of throwing out $20k.

MetArt images for example are low quality and have a watermark specifing that is not the original image. But I still need to review the sources carefully. Otherwise I will try to join those affiliate programs and dump the galleries I cannot publish.

                                                                                                      He is taking the content from FHGs. If the sponsor provides FHGs for affiliates it doesn't mean he gives permission to copy the pictures and use them on your server as separate files - unless they explicitly state they do allow that. (from strictly legal point of view)

                                                                                                      ZIPs are totally different case as they are directly offered for this purpose, though he said he scrapped the content off other websites (galleries).

                                                                                                      Say the sponsor use licensed content and that licence doesn't allow them to make copies for third parties. Offering it on FHGs would be ok as the content stays on their site, but giving it away in ZIPs would not be OK - it would be prohibited use and therefore copyright infringement. See the difference? ...same for scrapping it by affiliates without permission.

This dude should have asked them first for sure but he didn't even bother registering as an affiliate before stealing the content. I saw penis pills promoted with content from Free Ones on that site.

                                                                                                                                  quick tips:
                                                                                                                                  1. combine all js/ css files, you now have a lot of requests, just bundle them up. nextjs can do that
                                                                                                                                  2. don't host with vercel. you'll end up using their 1TB really fast. Use something like digital ocean, you can start with their cheap version, about 12$ per month, same easy deployment as vercel
                                                                                                                                  3. Don't open the links in new tabs. keep them in the same tab and take advantage of the preload feature of nextjs links. you can have instant page switches. take a look at my site (excuse the first click, gotta have a popunder, otherwise i'll starve)
                                                                                                                                  but after that navigation among pages is smooth
                                                                                                                                  I run Babe Stare - always looking for trades and business opportunities

                                                                                                                                                              quick tips:
                                                                                                                                                              1. combine all js/ css files, you now have a lot of requests, just bundle them up. nextjs can do that
                                                                                                                                                              2. don't host with vercel. you'll end up using their 1TB really fast. Use something like digital ocean, you can start with their cheap version, about 12$ per month, same easy deployment as vercel
                                                                                                                                                              3. Don't open the links in new tabs. keep them in the same tab and take advantage of the preload feature of nextjs links. you can have instant page switches. take a look at my site (excuse the first click, gotta have a popunder, otherwise i'll starve)
                                                                                                                                                              but after that navigation among pages is smooth
                                                                                                                                                              Hi, Nice to meet another nextjs dev here

                                                                                                                                                              Thanks for the tips , I still don't have a lot of traffic, website still not indexed, but will start migrating from vercel when traffic goes up.

Tubes with premium services offer content legally licensed from producers. I have been working with them since they started, so "tubes with premium links" ?? ...that's shocking news to me... lol.

I mean people sign up to have the right to use that content. I think in that context, that is not scraping but more hacking/stealing.
