Anyone ever wanted your site out of business? What to do?
Lets start from scratch: I run I want porn! - a website I coded entirely line by line myself (except the Joomla-backend)- since May 2014.
![]() And there is "theporndude", who claims that I've cloned/copied his site. There are a lot of porn directories out there and the I've seen this column-design first at TBLOP and definitely not TPD. So for me this is ridiculous, but he already convinced himself and I guess there is nothing I can do to change his mind on that. Actually I'd give a fuck on his opinion, if he would not contact other webmasters to cancel established link/traffic-trades to my site. ![]() We increase traffic all the time, but he has a lot more - And so he holds the whip hand when he forces them with something like "Remove the link to Iwantporn or I remove mine to your site" There are more porn directories/linksites like that (where I think mine is the greatest of course ;), but it seems he is only concerned about mine. So I guess I do something right. ;) I also have a lot of conversations with various webmasters, where some set my link back when they heard the story from my POV, but I guess I would have AT LEAST twice the traffic without his efforts. Anyone had something similar? How do you get rid of such a disease?

In the same way that bing is similar to google, or every TGP is similar to thumbzilla.

I made similar sites back in 2001 (non adult but with adult links), TPD didn't invent this design or concept.

I understand why he asks webmasters to remove links to your site. You are his competition. It's kind of like how porn forums do not want you mentioning other porn forums.
If he is saying you copied him then he is full of shit and is a dumbass. But the link removal makes sense. I made a post in this thread showing which website is older and younger by using the way back machine. http://m.gfy.com/fucking-around-and-program-discussion/1151546-porn-lists-websites-copied.html The porn dude is not very old |

Thats fucked up but that is an old trick - "if you want my product you have to use it exclusively". He knows you are solid competition and so is trying to beat you with the shelf space game before you get big enough to fight back.
Real way to beat him, IMVHO, is establish personal relationships with as many sites as you can, don't whine, but admit the challenge, as you have done here. In the long run people get tired of that shit and want a good player. |

He has A LOT of links to piracy sites, and the sponsors he contacts pull your links? That's crazy!
(Of course, you're not exactly in the clear on that count either - perhaps you could use that in your rebuttal "Yeah, I link to people who steal from you, but THEY do it more!")

I don't see any "cloning" of TBLOP neither. But I knew TBLOP before and I also use a "column-design with rounded edges".

Just to be clear, "The Porn Dude" is NOT me, The Porn NERD.
![]() Just keep going man and don't worry about what another site is doing. If you encounter sites that side with him write them off and move on. In the end whoever works harder will "win". ![]()

I do - but budget is limited. To outperform him with backlinks would be a fortune.

Most tubes look the same and YouTube was the first.
And aren't all blogs the same? They have posts sidebars and banners pretty much the same layouts.

The layouts are all the same, what other options are there for a site like that?
The designs on the other hand, well they aren't even close to being similar, even the most basic things like *colours* are worlds apart.

The main focus in on the index-site, but there are subsites for each category and details for every site. (You go there by clicking the category in a column. Examples: I want porn! - Best porn tubes (try the sort-thing! :P) I want porn! - Met-art (met-art.com)

As I just lost another link I want to refresh this thread a bit. ;)
I know there are some people here on GFY wo have deals with him. May I ask - without an ulterior motive-why? As "newb" already said, TPD has a LOT of piracy sites -actually categories only listing such sites- and also deals traffic with them. So you basically send him visitors and in return you get "pirates" directly to your sites. People who don't pay for shit. ;] I do know that for some people traffic is just traffic. But is it really profitable? PS: Free cookies for everyone at iwantporn ;]

I was just throwing out a recognizable TGP name to make the point that similar is not equal to copied copyrighted material or design.
Wait a minute, 1's and 0's? That's mine!

I've only ever encountered one real disgruntled person who tried to mess around with my sites.
She key worded up her new website with my website name in the form of "I don't work at suchandsuch.com anymore" so anytime someone looked for my site, hers would pop up. I waited for her to go away, I had my attorney send her a cease and desist. She ignored that demand and so, sometimes you gotta fight fire with fire. I have 35+ people working for me against just her. So, pretty quickly we solved that issue when I decided to play that way, though I definitely did not want to play. Sometimes you just have to lay the smack down and say......No bitch, NOT TODAY. She's irrelevant now and this guy will be eventually. Sometimes it's better just to plug on and let his karma be his karma. Cheating in business is never the way to "stay" ahead in my experience, but once in a while you do have to roll up your sleeves and get nasty. Just don't let it consume you. |

Here's a pro tip for you: Everyone you compete with wants you out of business. All of them. The ones wasting time trying to get rid of you are literally your smallest concern.
Just focus on being the best option available to your customers and business partners and you can safely ignore the "competition". If people don't want to do business with you for whatever the reason may be, then let it be their loss. If losing your business is truly a loss for them they will see it and others will too. And if it isn't you didn't deserve them in the first place. Focus on what's really important and ignore the idiots. There are a lot of them so there's a lot of ignoring to do, best get started now.

@The Porn Nerd: got ya ;) The sites from your sig? Ill review them. And hit me up if you want to trade links somewhere ;)
@MakeMeGrrrrowl: Hope you are right with karma. The bad guy never wins in movies and lets see if it is here, too... ;) @pompousjohn: Basically I agree, but I can't be the best option (at least for webmasters), when he is sending much more traffic. And I won't send an competitive amount if I lose backlinks every few days. Kind of a Sisyphus-thing.

But all in all thanks for the good words everyone.
Lets see how I compete in the future. Some sent me a PM with suggestions. I'll try them out!;) And if some wants to switches from TPD to IWP or just don't give a fuck on his threats the offer still holds: free cookies for everyone! :D

Seems you are repeating capitalism in fast motion. Competitors are gaining strength by swallowing other competitors, eventually they are setting the standards. That guy obviously is on a mission. Like world domination.
When business rivals discuss they do it because all parts are benefitting from it. They find a solution fitting for everybody in their exclusive club. We call this cartel, or antitrust. See the news for popular examples. But TPD is not interested in discussing with you, because he wants to get rid of you. You can take this to the public (like here), but apart from a few nice words you won't get much help. Most folks will just look for the popcorn. In your position, I'd try to expand my activities to something TPD can't easily copy. You know some of the guys in your list personally? Write a review about their stuff, let them write guest posts on your site or something like that. Or, if you're a programmer, why not do a simple popularity contest with a bit of celebration for the winner? Focusing on your own mission, not his one, is the key. You still would have a porn site directory, but with a personal touch. Will grow your traffic. Makes you laugh about TPD.

Not saying you copied, but the fact that you coded something yourself does not mean it can not be copied concept (not the code itself, but the concept).
