If your traffic is amateur, and your marketing 'hook' is: "I'm an illiterate nerd who somehow gets laid, and I do this all
myself, and so can YOU!" then making things too pretty or neat is counterproductive. "Oh, this is just some porn company bullshit, this isn't 'real' amateur sex" is a typical response. "I could never do
that/be like HIM" is another.
With my sites/thumbnails it's impossible to think this isn't 'real' because a 'pro' would FIX that shit. Dig? Ka-
CHING!
Anyone with an eye and a brain knows I'm neither 'lazy' nor 'stupid' nor anything else you obviously think of me. LOL I know what SELLS. Everything else is meaningless (to me).
