Sex.com has been a fucking fiasco since the day that it was purchased. Don't they have a 60% skim or some shit over there on there stupid ass TGP or CJ or whatever it is you wanna call it? :1orglaugh

boneprone 04-30-2007 07:10 PM

I see they closed that sad tgp they had...

Suprised it had that much of an effect.

Jon - Pussy.org 04-30-2007 07:11 PM

They traded it on GFY for 7 bros, 8 beers, 11 Zangos, 18 stand up guys, 1 lap dance... oh yeah, and a partridge in a pear tree :)

mikewest 04-30-2007 07:17 PM

That went for $14 million last January, I think.

Agreed. The traffic increase on that was nothing to sneeze at.

Semi-Retired-Dave 04-30-2007 11:17 PM

Give them time, I'm sure they'll come back stronger than ever.

uno 04-30-2007 11:56 PM

Does Hawg still own it?

jscott 05-01-2007 12:06 AM

Damn that is totally sad, but if somebody can afford to buy sex.com i wont feel bad for them, since i'm sure they have a ton of $$$ already

Zorgman 05-01-2007 02:05 AM

Gary (the previous owner) had the right idea. Sell the traffic PPC to webmasters that can use the traffic. He made more from webmasters then surfers in total.

Sex.com if you SEE this message, turn it back to adult PPC for webmasters.

en21 05-01-2007 03:28 AM

that's sad :-(

TommyM 05-01-2007 03:51 AM

Give me ftp access and I will change the site :D lol

I bet they make more money now then before with their shitty TGP trading traffic with other shitty sites.
But of course previous owner was more clever.

Max Cheese 05-01-2007 04:14 AM

jesus, what a bunch of idiots

Klen 05-01-2007 04:41 AM

Give sex.com to Jon :)

V_RocKs 05-01-2007 05:15 AM

That is what happens when you are shithead.

LadyMischief 05-01-2007 05:44 AM

As far as I'm aware the plans for sex.com are not going to be TGP, but there's new development coming. I'm hoping like everyone else that it's going to be moving to a new plateau. I'm a positive person though :)

shuki 05-01-2007 05:50 AM

I am excited to see too

Zorgman 05-01-2007 07:01 AM

Dont hold your breath. If it was anything like their last 3 idears it's going to fuck up again.

Drake 05-01-2007 07:18 AM

That's rough.

mattz 05-01-2007 07:20 AM

Haha ouch, that's not looking so great

Even with the crap site they had on there look at the traffic increase they had.

What a waste.

Ron2k1 05-07-2007 06:35 AM

Sorry for the bump, but it looks like sex.com has even less traffic then before their TGP move...

Sydney Sin 05-07-2007 06:36 AM

what the heck is that graph??

cess 05-07-2007 06:41 AM

oouch....

StarkReality 05-07-2007 06:52 AM

Well, not necessarily a bad decision to stop trading type-in quality traffic for bunches of tgp shit traffic, but as I already stated in another thread, I'd turn it in a paysite review portal.

It's perfectly brandable, so it's a shame to just take care of the traffic and waste the marketing potential.

Newbie surfers shouldn't see ANY free stuff, filter them down by niches and countries and let them pay, it's not rocket science.

Jman 05-07-2007 08:04 AM

I'm pretty sure Yshai was the one that made the most money out of Sex.com ;-)

hey Jon, can you please hit me up.
bolnda80 gave me your icq but i hve not heard back.
thanks buddy!

TheDoc 05-07-2007 09:52 AM

The only thing Gary did do correctly was sell the site for 14m. When he first got sex.com they talked to us and many others about what to do with it, we left the meeting early and never looked back. Taking sex.com to ppc was a major mistake, the site had and still has way more possibilities.

Like the current sex.com - who wrote the html/css? It's the largest display of amateur coded html and css ever, so badly that 5 banners slow your browser down. I mean come on, this site is 10 minutes of work but it must have taken someone a week to create that mess.

One day the site might get a chance to show its true potential.

rhizome 05-07-2007 10:04 AM

Sex.com makes KRL look like a genius.

Far-L 05-07-2007 10:39 AM

If any of you knew the brain trust and resources behind the current owners then you would all be eating your words. Give it some time to get redeveloped then draw your conclusions.

These guys are thinking wayyyyyyyyy beyond tgp and review site portal, trust me.

For the record... Our alexa went to crap after we parted with CE too and it didn't mean a hill of beans to income earned.
