Woke up at about 11am today. Set the alarm for 10:30 to watch Obama give a speech, but decided to sleep in a bit and it was a good decision. The Obama events were a half hour behind schedule, so I didn’t miss a thing.

While updating numerous sites, gaining new link trades, and updating some .htaccess files and washing my cats ass, I couldn’t help but laugh at the really old black man who could barely mutter words out during his speech.

I seriously think he may be as old as the first slave. He definitely gave the best and most humorous speech of the day and if I were there I would’ve given him a standing ovation. Unfortunately, two other old guys had seizures. One of them was Ted Kennedy. The other I do not know.

One part of today’s events that bored the piss out of me was the poetry woman who could’ve put a crying baby to sleep out of boredom. (more…)

When reading adult forums, you may encounter terms such as PPS, CPM, Revshare, or PPC. These stand for Pay Per Sale, Cost Per Thousand* Impressions, Revshare, and Pay Per Click.

These are the three main payment types that adult sponsors use to determine your payout.  Some sponsors may offer a choice to use one, another, or more than one, while other sponsors offer one, the other, or simply just one.

Let’s examine each payment option. (more…)

http://www.bigpileofshirt.com

Comes complete with the follow:

• custom website
• custom tshirt designs
• about 600 tshirts
• all copyrights to the custom designs

Minimum bid accepted is $15,000.00

Buy it now is $15,000.00

Reason for sale: this site consists of three owners who all have full time jobs and do not have time to promote this site properly. We put $20,000.00 into building this site but are willing to take $15,000 to hand it over to someone who has the time to promote the product. The shirts were selling great while we had the time, but our full time jobs take priority over this and it simply slipped into the background of our lives.

If you’re interested, please contact me to purchase it. It’s quite a beauty and the shirts are popular with the college and late 20’s crowd – they’re tasteful enough for parents, and not too tasteless enough for anyone else!

Let’s get this out of the way first: No. No you don’t have to video tape people having sex. If you refused to make a porn site because your wife or girlfriend would be opposed to you being present while others have sex, then now you no longer need to worry.

The only thing you need to make your own porn site is a computer, some cash, and half a brain. (more…)

If you’re interested in beginning your own adult site, then your first step is to determine what kind of site you want to administer. Many people think that running an adult site means you must film the content on your own, but that is not always the case. Adult sponsors will provide you with every bit of content you need to run your own adult website.

For those of you who thought you had to hire local girls/guys to have sex in your kitchen while your wife is at work, you can rest assured she will come home happy because all the tools you need to run an adult site are already in place!

Different types of websites have different objectives and methods of doing things. These are the most popular adult website types that webmasters use: (more…)

Not all public submissions from the public are approved. Tgp owners are often picky and select the best content only for their website. Deciding which public submissions to approve is usually based on the quality of the thumbnail, title/description text, and if the gallery content is good/bad quality and the webmasters own set of submission rules.

Most webmasters have a set of rules that the public must abide by if they even want their gallery considered. Webmasters of respected tgp’s often get 100+ submissions per day, but may only have room to approve 10-20 per day, at which point a backlog of galleries builds and some webmasters are approved ages later! Think of it as a loooong line to get in a club, and if you don’t follow the dress code, then you’re not getting in.

Partners often have a private submit form and they skip the long line. It’s like the VIP line, you submit and you’re in as long as you followed the rules. People who do paid submits often have what’s called a Partner Account or PA.

PA’s are usually  cheap and they only permit you the ability to submit. They don’t guarantee your submission will be approved, because if you submit something that breaks the rules, then you’re out of luck. Shame on you for paying to get in, but not dressing appropriately.

Paid listings cost much more usually in the $100-$x,xxx.00 range. However, you’re guaranteed to be listed in the spot you purchased for the amount of time you purchased it for. Granted, if your gallery breaks the submission rules set by the tgp/mgp, you can bet your bottom dollar your submission will be deleted and your violation of the terms may give the site owner the ability to revoke your listing.

In 2007 I was guilty of  spending $5,000 to $17,000 per month on advertising. Around February or March of 2008 I put an end to about 90% of my ad purchases. Then I dropped the last of the ad campaigns.

Last night I was somewhat bored and still had some extra cash left in my Traffic Holder account and decided to test some traffic sources for productivity.

How did I test the traffic you ask?

I created a hybrid thumb/text page in TGP X with 100% tracked urls consisting of thumbnails and text links – both visible above the fold. I also removed iframe/java ads since I don’t know a method to track those withTrade Expert. I’m not even 100% sure it’s yet possible to track the traffic on an iframe ad without setting up a campaign in your sponsors admin, but I wasn’t going through that trouble just to test a few traffic sources; removing it was much easier and more efficient in tracking.

Now I have a page where any click will register as a productive click, and the page was very similar to my homepage. I mimiced my homepage because if the traffic turned out to be worth purchasing, then I would purchase more and utilize it to build bigger trades.

Once my page was created, I logged into Traffic Holder and my next step was deciding which method to browse. I know for a fact that testing the traffic is easiest when you purchase by domain. I scrolled through the list of domains selling traffic and looked at their “projected” or “listed” productivity. (more…)

When webmasters submit galleries or plugs, there’s only two kinds of submitters: people who submit well,  and the rest who just suck at it.

People who submit well will do the following:

• Select the correct category.
• Crop a proper high quality thumb from the gallery or video that doesn’t cut off someone’s head or important part.
• Write proper title and description text that uses descriptive, interesting, and entertaining text, as well as ensuring that the described text matches the depicted thumbnail. Example: “burning hot redhead  snuggly rug muffin pussy destroyed by next door neighbors black monster cock.”

People who suck at submitting will do the following:

• Chose the wrong category. Example: they chose black instead of redhead.
• Crop a lazy thumb in which the image shows just a blurry thigh and it doesn’t match the text and/or the content.
• Write an awful three word title that will generate very little clicks. Example: “girl gets fucked.”

If you want to generate more clicks, then follow the first set of rules and don’t be a slacker. Bad titles, bad thumbs, and wrong category choice will almost always garnish lower click through rates, less conversions, and overall bad quality. If a guy clicks on a redhead, and gets a bunch of black girls, then he will probably not click much or buy anything.

If he/she clicks on a black girl and gets more black girls – then you’ve just made his/her day and they will click on more black girls until he/she either masturbates, bookmarks your site, clicks on more related content or trades, or purchases a membership – any combination of those are great for your site.

Why have a huge bandwidth (bw) bill when lots of sponsors offer embedded videos? I canceled my media server months ago when more and more sponsors launched their Youtube style embedded videos. With this attractive, and profitable, service, now webmasters like us have one less bill to pay per month. And let’s face it, bw bills can get ugly like a fat drunk girl at the bar while you’re sober if you incur steep overages.

Then there’s tube sites who offer embedded videos too. Same benefit of not paying for bw, but there’s one major downfall – you can’t make any money either. AND, you’re giving a website a FREE advertisement and FREE traffic.

If you sold a banner that sends 5000 clicks per day, for 30 days ($150,000 hits), at industry standard $5 per k, you would earn $750.

Let’s say you embed a sponsor video and it receives 5000 clicks per day, for 30 days (150,000 clicks) and the sponsor pays $30 per sale and converts  and an awful 1:2000. You’d get about 75 sales and earn $2250.

Let’s try a tube site embed now and send it $150,000. What did you earn? Nothing. That’s right. Nothing. At. All. Jackshit, completely worthless to use.

The point here is that using tube site embedded videos is basically the dumbest thing you can do for your site and your business. Would you ever give away $750 worth of traffic? No. Would you ever give a trade partner 150,000 free traffic and get NOTHING back? No.

Would you be a smarter webmaster to sell traffic instead of giving it away for free? Yes.

Would you be even smarter webmaster to use sponsor embeds (or host your own if that’s in your budget) and double the income (even on a bad ratio)? Yes. (more…)
