think about this - there might be a cap on the amount of gay traffic to get to men.com - and straight traffic would have a much much higher cap and many more marketable options...

example - gay traffic might convert 1/40 - but ONLY to gay sites and such - and might cap at 30,000 hits a day - which would be HUGE in the gay marketplace - i don't think there's even a gay tgp that big....

but men.com might get to 200K + a day being straight - and then it's markerable to EVERYTHING -no converions to worry about - he's got the same marketplace as any normal men's magazine and those clients don't even worry about conversion - they just want branding. - it's MUCH better option long run


but try and explain that to a short sighted troll that thinks that conversions are everything - good luck - idiots that have never done anything in their lives ALWAYS know the best way for others to run their business.


but what do I know - i'm just an idiot

Actually the gay traffic market value is higher than straight, even though you can get a lot more straight traffic, gay is worth more per visitor by a lot. Forgetting about the gay marketing on a site like men.com is retarded. Men.com can easily market to straight, gay and bi, and triple it?s revenue for people only wanting to brand its products. It?s not maxim, stuff, or any MENS mag, it?s an online site that can easily cater to all men.

Men.com should be for "MEN", be they are straight, gay, brown, white, etc.

And now to help out what you called the "trolls". Speaking off... This is basic online mareketing 101. You can take a course and learn this at your local college, or go to about any online seminar (adult or not) and learn about gay traffic value over straight.
