It's a dream that people will stop giving away free porn, they're trapped. Affiliates demand it and if they don't get it they don't promote. So affiliates now control the industry in this sector. Blame the idiots who first thought up the idea of giving away free porn and creating a barrier to paysites.

Even if you only promote your own sites. You're trapped. The barrier between you and the buyer is free porn, unless you're a wizard at SEO. Even then a lot of that traffic goes directly to free sites. Adwords might work for some so there's the option.

Agreed the money earned today is a fraction of what it was. Free porn hit offline porn and now it's damaging online porn. The damage isn't finished. Adapt of die will soon mean, get out your CV. Or go to mainstream.

Your "solutions" are all theory as they exist in a vacuum, meaning you won't actually IMPLEMENT any of them because you are unable to. So keep dishing out your theories. LOL Anyone can do the same.

Agreed. Doesn't mean I shouldn't think of them or post them. The saddest thing is those who could implement them are buying Tube sites.

Quote:

Your rants aren't fixing anything, just contributing to the belief that you are out of touch.

Yes I'm out of touch. I think the solution lies in the product we sell and not in free porn. Shit I'm really out of touch.

PS: Don't bet against Nathan. Ever.

Buying more major Tubes will give him tons more traffic. What's he going to sell that traffic is all I'm interested in. I might bet he won't come up with anything spectacular in terms of the product.

Just come over here and go to a show. Just the difference in the shows themselves is unreal.

Back when free content was being used by TGP's to promote was when Internext had an entire Hall at the Sands Expo Center at the Venetian.
This year? Internext had a room smaller than my living room...I am not making that up.

That did not happen from armies of affiliates making hundreds of millions of dollars for paysites.
That happened over the last few years from armies of pirates making ZERO money for paysites and causing people to NOT join.

"Bloody Annoying"? Yeah, tell that to all the companies who already closed down Paul. It's much, much more than that. It is STEALING.

As someone who has been going to offline porn shows for 20 years I've never seen an offline porn show smaller than an online one. As they allow in the real people who matter in business, the customer. I doubt if what you said was true.

What I did hear from around 1998 was the complaints that free porn was damaging sales. Then as TGPs took over the traffic game the complaints got louder. Really in disbelief that online had to give porn away to sell it. The underlying theme was free porn will bite you in the ass.

Even in your heyday as a distributor of free porn you were getting more people off for free than you were ever selling to.

Yes piracy is a pain in the neck and bloody annoying. But has not done 1/10 of the damage to the porn industry legitimate porn did by giving the product away.

This is where the damage is being done.

That's around 8 million surfers who are tracked by Alexa logging into 9 Tubes. Fabian recently boasted he had 20 million a day. Alexa shows 1.5 million. If he gets 10 times what's shown, so do the rest. 90 million people a day logging into a porn Tube on those sites listed. If it converts at 1-2,000 and that's generous. That's only 45,000 buyers.

1-5,000 = 18,000

Free porn not piracy is what's harming this business. Piracy can be fought against, not easy but the legal cases are on all the time. Free porn from what most write can't be fought against.

Think of the porn world TGPs created. 90,000,000 looking at porn and 89,982,000 getting off and fucking off.

All for free.

You were just in at the beginning and started the snowball rolling.

Either way, you are mid-reading Alexa. What you showed in graphs does not say 1.5m people a day. It says 1.5% of all people online/tracked by Alexa.

And we do not have 20m visitors a day.. Far from it...

DamianJ · 05-11-2011, 01:24 AM

Paul, I think everyone should stop giving you a hard time. Your contribution to this thread is BRILLIANT.

Let's precis:

1) Free porn is bad
2) Piracy isn't a problem
3) We should spend more on content

I've never heard anyone, especially you, offer such insight into an industry before. Where did you get your MBA? I bet you've done that sigma six thing too.

Astounding.

Thanks for taking the time out of your busy day to share.

Love you, champ.

Do not underestimate me Paul ;)

I would actually love to see Manwin do something spectacular in the sales line. Other than give away more free porn. You know that from my emails. You know my line is to step up the product, do something that sets you apart from the rest. My posts are all about that.

If selling online porn is to survive it needs paying surfers. not people who will be dating or cams. Because if free cams come out, that income stream is screwed. Dating sites customers will also learn that free is available.

Until I see the plans or the results, I have nothing to estimate you on other than what I see. Other than what you write in emails.

Rich lists are the only indication I have. So they are also for people to see what others are worth.

1.5% of all online people people tracked by Alexa?

OK from here I got the US population.

http://geography.about.com/od/obtain...population.htm

From here average daily usage online

http://www.pewinternet.org/Static-Pa...-20002009.aspx

1.5% = 4,650,000 just US Alexa users. And I suspect 2011 it's not less.

What's the % of non buyers you're missing out on?

You are making what you make, it should climb. By making the climb awesome on the traffic you have. you need something to SELL them better than what yu have.

To gobble up more traffic and only do that for your growth is bad business in a declining market. You need to get more out of what you have today.

I await the news.

Control of surfers.

Something like this?

Unless you have them tied up like this you don't have control of them.

They are just people coming to your site consuming free porn. Maybe you're hoping a big player will buy Manwin for $billions, like Microsoft bought Skype. Dream on.

You need to sit down and think of something to maximise the revenue from each surfer. Not maximise the surfers and minimise the revenue from each.

One thing we've all learnt in the last 10-15 years is. You don't control surfers.

They make their own decisions without a lot of control from us. If we could of controlled them we would of never of given them free porn. In fact giving them free porn was the fastest way to lose control of potential customers.

The power/value of any Tube is what?

You've never explained that, or I missed it.

However your bullshit is exposed by the 22 minutes statement.

Exactly what info are they getting?

"They like free porn"

Never put an email into a Tube, so all they have is my IP address and my surfing habits. Good luck monetising that.

Again a blinkered "It works in Mainstream." clown. Comes up with nothing.

The only control Manwin has is they're on one of their free sites, consuming their free porn. It locks the company into a box unless he can monetise that traffic. The big question is. Beyond what they currently do what's the odds of getting more money per surfer?

Getting more surfers who don't want to pay for porn to sell them porn in a declining market seems to me a not so bright thing. So unless Manwin come up with something awesome to SELL. Where are they?

They are supplying free surfers with free porn. The moment they cut off the free porn, the "control" is negated. If it ever was control.

Now the danger is. How much would it cost to set up another Youporn and sell it to Manwin?

Hosting
CMS
Design
Traffic.

Content to be donated by "uploaders" and sponsors keen to give away their product.

All the time the site is making money, off setting the costs.

Which would be what?

Or for one of the smaller guys to inflate his Tube and then for him to sell it off?

You really need to sit back and think a little more on this.... Control isn't about telling them what to do, it's much more than that.

All he has to do is listen, test, provide and move on. For example, if any of us here came up with a new cool idea - a new niche/film idea lets say. We all basically have to open an entire site, do everything related to that and hope like hell we pull it off.

Nathan only has to provide 1 clip and millions of people will tell him if it's the right thing to do or not, and if not he can tweak it until it's a hell yes, and then all he has to do is provide that to them - being that he can limit it's free exposure to millions of people, or build up a base of interested buyers before the product is even done so once it is done he already knows the percentage of buyers he would have.

That's the level of control he has and that's just a minor example of it.

That's wrong idea of control. You need to think of what control really is.

Manwin's Tubes ONLY get surfers because they get free porn in amounts and ways better than other sites. The moment they slow down on that, surfers move on.

Even while the surfers are on his site, he has no control over them. He can't make them click a link, he can't make them buy after clicking that link.

No you and I have a totally different idea of what the word control is. It's not and has never been test marketing.

At the moment free surfers control the free sites. Give us the most or we fuck off to who will. That's control when Manwin jumps up and gives them what they demand.

"For example, if any of us here came up with a new cool idea - a new niche/film idea lets say."

Let's say pigs can fly, if we're going that far. What new cool ideas, new niches or film ideas have you seen come up recently?

Yes if a site comes out with a new way of shooting a new niche and has a cool way of shooting. Then he can test it. Or the site can tell him to fuck off and do without him. Still no control. Whether in your mythical world the idea sprouts up, Manwin still need that person to allow them to promote it.

Control has nothing to do with making people do anything.... your idea of control is greatly incorrect.

The minute a better facebook comes along the users will move on, that goes for google or even paid products like apple. That's business, good job stating the natural progress of business - and it's also natural for them to keep trying to improve things - through testing.

All types of new porn has been created in the last 5, 10 and 15 years... far more than I can list.

I saw some funky ass bondage shit posted on gfy about a week ago, it was unique as well. However, what I said was only an example of "one thing" he could do, it doesn't have to be new it could be improved and it doesn't have to be porn directly.

It could be improved players, new technology in more ways than I can list, improved filtering from traffic to piracy, server-host technology, filming process, and again more things than I can list - it's endless.

Testing is EVERYTHING.... It's what gave us Robust Spaghetti Sauces when for years people 'thought' they loved original Italian. Testing proved that people have no f'in clue what they want/like and they can't even explain it, that's why you have to test.. Provide them with options so they TELL YOU what they ACTUALLY like vs. what YOU think they like based off hearsay.

Agent 488 · 05-11-2011, 09:22 AM

all ads on the manwin tubes are run through traffic junky anyway.

it's their advertisers who are testing and tweaking ... and buying.

The Porn Nerd · 05-11-2011, 10:09 AM

Paul comes from an eastern-european country where "control" means an Iron Curtain. :D

Think of "control" this way Paul: you own a mall, you got a lot of stores in there. Sure, you cannot FORCE people to buy jewelry or clothes or visit this shop or that, people will make their own decisions. BUT - at least they are in YOUR mall, not the one down the road. So your CHANCES of making $ off all those people in your Mall goes WAY up.

How well you do, how many customers and sales you generate, depends on the quality of your products (your point), how well you sell those products (our point) and all the other little marketing/advertising tricks to make money.

I hope this clears up "control".

Very true. LOL

I actually like what is going on with pornhub (other than that we STILL have to DMCA all of the time) - it looks more like a TGP did in the old days, just with 5 minute clips and links to where you can join the sites.

I always thought if you had done this from the beginning tubes could have been just like a souped up TGP, but they never would have gotten the amount of traffic they did without so much full length videos.

It seems to me (and I might be wrong) that Mandwin is mostly posting their licensed content for the full-length and let those who still want to see upload with a link, I think it's a step in the right direction.

If they carried their through all of their tubes, things might actually improve.

The only money I ever made with tubes was when I sold mine, so if they've figured it out, good one them.

This is the first link I see on Pornhub: http://www.pornhub.com/view_video.php?viewkey=742838667

Looks EXACTLY like it always did.

And here is a sponsored vid from Penthouse: http://www.pornhub.com/view_video.php?viewkey=857919786

One text link above the video...then the rest of the page spammed up so hard with pre-paid ad spots that it's a joke.

One of the FIRST things I learned in marketing is to focus. And if you're going to use some valuable real estate on a page to sell something else...don't make it look spammy.

Me and everyone I know that KNOWS how to make money on a freesite would look at that and see nothing but an amateurish page that is designed to do nothing but get views on an ad that is pre-paid.

Pornhub guys have NO idea how to market a paysite from that page.

It's still good branding though. If 100 million people viewed your video and you tagged it right, plus you run a hard anti-torrent / DMCA program - if people like what they see, they will search for it again later and hopefully pay.

It's not a perfect strategy, but it's one I'd at least be willing to try.

Jay...if you put a video up on Pornhub and it's on the first page for half a day...then yeah you'll get some branding. After that? You are getting people SEARCHING for your content (either by the name of the girl or the website) and then you're not getting any branding...you're just making money for Pornhub off your content at that point.

We are getting incredible results now from viral marketing. I would suggest you go that route with your new solo pornstar girl sites. Those girls are already stars. They don't need pornhub's "branding" (just like we don't need it).

Just set up some non-adult oriented facebook's for all of them and have them go in there and talk about everyday life.

It's like the movie "Inception". Trust me, the people will "discover" the girls and you will get more sales than pornhub could ever "send".
Just put up a facebook with NO adult images and have the girls work it.

Twitter and MySpace are still very good as well. And Twitter can be as adult as you want it. It's all about the actual girl interacting.
Check out this blog I made for CM using ONLY my cellphone to take pics of her: http://theclaudiamarieblog.com/

That is becoming pure gold for sales.
Don't let Pornhub use you again.

Hmm thats nice, thanks. I need to change the theme of the blog though and make It non nude. That will fit the content better.

I'm finding that for blogs anyway...non-nude is best cause it gets them to click the link to the site to see her nude.

And I'm driving traffic to the blog from the social networks like twitter and facebook and myspace.

So it's almost like the surfer is on a "quest" and when they hit the tour page they are ready for more.

We are getting incredible results now from viral marketing. I would suggest you go that route with your new solo pornstar girl sites. Those girls are already stars. They don't need pornhub's "branding" (just like we don't need it).

Just set up some non-adult oriented facebook's for all of them and have them go in there and talk about everyday life.

It's like the movie "Inception". Trust me, the people will "discover" the girls and you will get more sales than pornhub could ever "send".
Just put up a facebook with NO adult images and have the girls work it.

Twitter and MySpace are still very good as well. And Twitter can be as adult as you want it. It's all about the actual girl interacting.
Check out this blog I made for CM using ONLY my cellphone to take pics of her: http://theclaudiamarieblog.com/

That is becoming pure gold for sales.
Don't let Pornhub use you again.

I hit up a bunch of program owners that are on there alreadys an the consensus of 100% of them is "barely worth your time"

If you run a scam dating site or penis pills, you could probably do well.

not much of a 'quest' on tube sites. It's all right there for them.

That was my experience as well Jay.

Thank you Robbie, that's all I have to say.

Think of "control" this way Paul: you own a mall, you got a lot of stores in there. Sure, you cannot FORCE people to buy jewelry or clothes or visit this shop or that, people will make their own decisions. BUT - at least they are in YOUR mall, not the one down the road. So your CHANCES of making $ off all those people in your Mall goes WAY up.

When I visit a Mall that gives away the product I'm looking to for and then don't have to buy said product. Your example will be spot on.

Quote:

How well you do, how many customers and sales you generate, depends on the quality of your products (your point), how well you sell those products (our point) and all the other little marketing/advertising tricks to make money.

Therefore the surfers control Manwin, they have to be on the top of their game or the surfers bugger off.

Quote:

I hope this clears up "control".

Only in your mind.

Quote:

con·trol
[kuhn-trohl] Show IPA verb, -trolled, -trol·ling, noun
?verb (used with object)
1.
to exercise restraint or direction over; dominate; command.
2.
to hold in check; curb: to control a horse; to control one's emotions.
3.
to test or verify (a scientific experiment) by a parallel experiment or other standard of comparison.

3. Kind of fits your definition of control. But the amount of testing they do is limited.

Actually that statement condemns you. If the sponsors hadn't of rushed to give away free porn. You wouldn't of needed free porn. You really don't think very widely.

Why is so much free porn needed by affiliates? Because there is so much free porn available and sales are in the 0.01% level. With just a text link and tours the surfer can't jerk off to, ratios would be in the 50% level. Traffic would be lower, sales would be sky high.

I know it is the way it is. Doesn't stop me pointing at the stupidity of it and the people who thought it was a great idea.

You got that check because by the time LFP came to the table affiliates were the barrier between the customer and the seller.

Giving away free samples = giving away free porn.

And by the time piracy was a big problem the consumer was taught not to pay for porn.

Piracy is a bad issue and believe me I've been anti piracy long before you came online. Ever heard of a guy called Steve Easton.

Still a clueless cunt I see. Well done on getting people to 'debate' with you though, fuck knows how you do it.

No wonder you need a lot of traffic to get a sign up.

Well done on scraping a living, fuck knows how you do it.

Seriously Jel, stop showing up your short comings.

Your contribution to this thread is BRILLIANT. Let's precis: 1) Free porn is bad 2) Piracy isn't a problem 3) We should spend more on content I've never heard anyone, especially you, offer such insight into an industry before. Where did you get your MBA? I bet you've done that sigma six thing too. Astounding. Thanks for taking the time out of your busy day to share. Love you, champ. x
