    Ten.com - show me a better paysite!

    Never promoted these guys, but I think I'm gonna have to start.

    Wow, what a novel concept, using FLASH on a paysite!

    A lot of programs are obviously worried about losing that 5% of surfers who don't have flash installed, but look how fuckin' sick this site looks!

    http://ten.com

    Whoever runs this site, way to go!

      You must not have been around long. Flash is a bandwidth hog. I have seen plenty of Flash tours... most have failed.

          On DSL it took longer than 15 sconds to play back.
          There is a broken image on the thumb dated 9/23 and 9/24.The Tour pops a window.
          Its has sound.
          The tour is to soft.
          The tour has to much text.

          The tour is unfocused, meaning there is no target traffic to really send to it. Everyone targets now by niche so in effect this tour is detrimental to the common cause of why webmasters focus on niches.

          Webmasters generate better sales while working and focusing on specific niches. Someone wake them people up at TEN they seem really out of the loop.


          Basically it has all the hallmarks that do not generate sales.

                    designing for netscape 0.00001 went out of style years ago- look at gmail - you are required to meet their requirements. designing for broadband or modern browsers is not overall a bad idea imho.

                                AHhahaha!

                                Lets see umm Post Bot for Rick Latona...
                                Ya wanna set off board alarms for page views?

                                OK.

                                PostBot is a non living program initiating posts with a simple script.
                                Numerous people have used them its a proven fact.
                                You can ask Smokythebear, Lensman, Sleazydream, AMP, AaronM, Juicy, Mr Izz, Jason at Porndollar, and many other people that have had to deal with idiots utilizing POSTBOTS just to get attention.

                                I have never required such a thing.

                                So of course you are unable to discern the difference!
                                Then perhaps you should read more of me, take my word and opinions and...


                                A: Shove it so deep up your ass your eyes bulge like a huge cock punctured your rectem and ignore it.

                                B: Take it for what is and evaluate what I might have to say in consideration's for any of your future business.

                                    Just because they were stupid enough to buy traffic from you, now ya wanna parade around like its the greatest tour the internet has to date?

                                    You poor thing...

                                    Sorry, its a tour dude, in a world where there is no such thing as "THE GREATEST TOUR".

                                    Show me a tour with Jesus comming from the sky and what I goto do to enter Heaven then perhaps that might be a great tour but once again in that analogy do you really think the tour to heaven would really make a difference in sales?

                                    Prolly not.

                                    Content, content content...

                                        ... man, no offence, I simply like their site and I have heared from numerous sources that their concept works.

                                                I also like the stuff you have in your portfolio, please don't hate me for that.
                                                Does it really work?

                                                Over 75% of our revenue from the Internet Group continues to be generated from monthly memberships to TEN.com. However, we have seen this revenue erode over the past several years since the traffic volume to TEN.com has not generated enough new monthly sign-ups to offset the cancellations in our membership base. The decline in membership revenue has slowed over the past several quarters as new marketing efforts have increased traffic to TEN.com, generating monthly sign-ups that are close to or slightly exceeding our monthly cancellation rate. We will continue to focus on ways to generate profitable traffic during the 2005 fiscal year in order to reverse the decline in membership revenue from TEN.com.

                                                                    Why do so many people think surfers with their dicks in their hands looking for porn will orgasm over 'innovative' flash programming? Personally I've only generally seen geeky WM types get excited by it until they look at the conversion stats *shrug*

                                                                                As far as size issues, a good flash designer/programmer can keep their sites fairly small, maybe even smaller than regular HTML sites.

                                                                                I always thought flash integration of sites should be more widespread than it is, and as the years go by it will be for obvious reasons.

                                                                                I like hybrid sites, I think they could work best.

                                                                                Make Major Bank With Major Personality - NaughtyBank! Featuring NaughtyAllie and NaughtyJulie!

However, we have seen this revenue erode over the past several years since the traffic volume to TEN.com has not generated enough new monthly sign-ups to offset the cancellations in our membership base. The decline in membership revenue has slowed over the past several quarters as new marketing efforts have increased traffic to TEN.com, generating monthly sign-ups that are close to or slightly exceeding our monthly cancellation rate. We will continue to focus on ways to generate profitable traffic during the 2005 fiscal year in order to reverse the decline in membership revenue from TEN.com.

                                                                                          - $30 payout on $74.95 3-month join
                                                                                          (That's Only 40% non-recurring!)

                                                                                          - $20 payout on $29.95 join
                                                                                          (That's only 66% non-recurring!)

                                                                                          - $6 payout on $9.95 PPV or day-pass purchase
                                                                                          (I couldn't even find this signup option on the site anywhere)

                                                                                          - Plus there's a ton of traffic leaks in the tour going to pill sites and braincash paysites which it doesn't look like you get paid for.

                                                                                          - Didn't see any pop-ups (SP2) but I bet thet take those signups as well!

                                                                                          Gimme five mins and I'll have all my links switched over to your program.......Not
