Gay.com Going Public - IPO Announced
 

Wow! Excellent news. PlanetOut, Inc. whose top domain is Gay.com just file their Initial Public Offering docs with the SEC.

Close to 5 Million shares at $12 to $14 a share.

Nice!!!! This will be a great stock to buy. Their advertisers are all top Fortune 500 companies.

:thumbsup

So when should I expect Men.com filing for it's IPO with the SEC?

Quit reading my mind! :Graucho

:winkwink:

I'm sure they will do very well because their stock will get picked up by all the gay friendly mutual funds.

amazing.

be interesting to know what sex.com would get on a public offering.......

Plus they're going to get massive publicity without a doubt on this one. That stock will jump like a hardon on opening day.

Has anyone here bought traffic from gay.com? I was going to but it's extremely expensive and over my head.

Its expensive because they have over 3 million members and high income surfers on their site.

If you look at the advertiser list its all Fortune 500 major corps, well known brands.

it is very well targeted

This can get huge ... 10 % of the population are gays ...

it is absolutely FABULOUS news....

smile...

niiiiiiiiice :thumbsup

I wish I knew SOMETHING about buying stocks...been meaning to learn for years now.

Actually...any suggestions about where to learn? In "dumb blonde" terms (I'm a blonde redhead :))

KRL, this was 04/29

how many of their shares will they issue?

yeah, me too. :(

no way. I think its more like 15-20%

well, I dont know if this is any help as I havent looked into advertising with them but I am a member ;) so here are my observations

all non paying members see ads for porn sites for companies like Chi Chi LaRue, Falcon, Titan, Badpuppy, Absolutely Men, Naked Sword, Michael Lucas and Sean Cody i.e. gay owned and operated porn sites that have high brand recognition within the gay community

I am assuming some of those ads are on a standard rev-share plan as sites like Michael Lucas dont seem to be designed to just convert into site membership sales... So maybe approach them if you run a site and you could get some placement

It is 1996 all over again :) WOOT WOOT!

KRL do you have more info on this stock?

what day will it be released at?
what will the stock symbol be?
where can I place an order to get shares as soon as possible?

thanx :thumbsup

lol, i thought you're announcing on GFY you bought gay.com

lol, its 4-5 %

Yes 1/5 people are raging homosexuals. I guess what you *think* and what is reality is a little different though.

Awesome news!

Gay.com, Men.com, is there a pattern here?

This is what I have learned from KRL; Cash is beside ethics, if morals make cash.
Let's see if it show up on the Japan market on Monday.
:)

Awesome news, good luck on that KRL. By the way, just a friendly remark, you guys really need a new site layout and design. A whole new profile.

what does men.com or gay.com have to do with lack of ethics?

yup, great news !

Anybody seen some financial/business planning together with some historic numbers of these guys? Just guessing work if it's a good buy or not without any info. In my book $100 in advertising revenues from your local mom and pop porn program are just as good as $100 from a Fortune 500 company - once both are cleared in the bank account :)
