anybody ever advertise in magazines?
 

Just curious to see if anybody has tried magazine ads to promote adult content, and if so, how did it go?

Didn't work well for me, I've tried Maxim about 3 years ago.

it's too expensive for popular magazines
i think, ratio willn't be so great

Ask them for a rate card and you will shit your pants.

Best used for release of a new great item/product/place, not as a method of raw profit. The prices are high and the returns are low.

tried some uk mags it sucked

We post phone sex ads in Hustler, Penthouse and about 20 other adult rags as well as newspapers. Costs are from $1k - $10K / month. For phone sex, long-term it's worth it ... some of these guys spend literally thousands a week.

For adult web sites? I'd seriously doubt it would work in the generic mags like PH, Playboy, etc. For highly-targeted niche magazines I'd think it would work assuming the ad rates were considerably less.

Print ads are so expensive. It's only worth it if your product is right.
