Question Regarding Exclusivity - A Real Business Question on GFY!
 

I own the Pecker Pass Network of websites (see sig).

I have filmed all of the content myself, exclusively for this network.

I am now thinking of licensing some non-exclusive content, as bonus content for my members.

This content would be specifically labeled "bonus" or "free" or "extra" content.

My questions are these...

If I do this, can I still advertise my network of sites as "exclusive"?

If I do this, would it make more sense to develop this content into "free sites" or would "bonus areas" be enough of a separation?

Also, how would this possible addition effect my "exclusive content" status on review sites?

Thanks in advance!

Set up a second group which is kept separate from the exclusive network.

ACCESS ALL OF OUR EXCLUSIVE SITES FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!

site site site etc

As a bonus you will also get membership to our partner sites xyz - just don't mention exclusive down here.

as long as you don't advertise the bonus content as excluisve i don't see any problems at all. and let me know when you need some nice big tit stuff :)

Thanks, but would these "partner sites" require full site set-ups, complete with separate domain names, or could I just set up bonus directories within the existing membership area?

Obviously I could do either, but as far as maintaining exclusivity goes, can I do either, or must the separation be more defined?

I see sites labeled as exclusive with bonus content all the time. I think you would be safe. Just do not claim your site is "100% exclusive".

The rest you have pretty much covered.

half the gfyers steal the content and you are worrying about minor details like that? :1orglaugh

Basically I just want to make sure that the "exclusive content" statement that I advertise, and that the review sites use, can still be maintained, otherwise adding bonus content will work against me. At the moment all of the content throughout my sites is 100% exclusive, which I think is important to surfers when they decide to join or not. Too may sites rehash licensed stuff, and I want to be sure I would not be shooting myself in the foot if I add bonus stuff.

To keep the existing domains as exclusive I do think you really need them on separate domain names.

I don't think they need to be another branded network just individual sites.


Also, typo: Chicken Chockin' Madness!

The word is choking. So it should be Chokin' :)

do gallery trades for 'bonus' content... no exclusivity issues then and you might grab some sales as well

Thanks for the typo alert. I just fixed it.

Apparently it has been incorrect for years!

I owe you one!

Unless you really whore it out and it ends up everywhere, no one will know, including the review sites.
