It costs $20K to skin GFY - GoFuckYourself.com

Evil Chris · 08-09-2006, 01:18 PM

worth it??

gangbangjoe · 08-09-2006, 01:19 PM

sure
makes me all tingly inside

Tuga · 08-09-2006, 01:20 PM

I would pay $20 to get the old skin back.

nowadays - no idea. Personally i don't even remember the last skin...

edit: actually I remember it - perfect gonzo, right?
but don't remember the previous one for sure

milambur · 08-09-2006, 01:23 PM

If you only have a small affiliate base it is probably worth it

andrej_NDC · 08-09-2006, 01:24 PM

$25k, get your facts straight

Evil Chris · 08-09-2006, 01:24 PM

My opinion?

Worth it for some, but not all.
If you have a very special program, word of mouth (word of sig) is always the best way.

bknoob · 08-09-2006, 01:34 PM

previous one was ethnicpass

brand0n · 08-09-2006, 01:35 PM

im not sure why fleshlight forked over this kinda cash. there name was branded with all the drama and all that jazz.

no need for this really.. but hey.. rock on

spend your money as you see fit

kristin · 08-09-2006, 01:46 PM

I've contacted people after their skins to find the effectiveness of it. Some do it for different reasons:
1. To seem bigger than they are ... hey, if you can drop $25k on skinning, then don't you seem to be a big program?
2. Pure branding and it has worked and failed for some
3. New program launches --which to me, doesn't always seem to be the most effective. But that's just my opinion.

WWC-Pajio · 08-09-2006, 01:47 PM

...that's a nice skin btw!! :D

poisson · 08-09-2006, 01:48 PM

I love this skin. Go Fleshlight Go.

Doctor Dre · 08-09-2006, 01:49 PM

It's good for branding existing program (big ones), and putting new ones on the map. Except that I don't see why medium programs would do it.

tytyguy · 08-09-2006, 02:03 PM

fleshlight probably paid them 20K to do it though. I mean its a huge promotion. It says fleslight cash like 30 times in the background. lol

Pornwolf · 08-09-2006, 02:14 PM

In this biz $20k will make you $40k by herding and driving traffic.

The question then becomes does dropping $20k on a skin at least help you break even?

That's something that's hard to quantify.

Klen · 08-09-2006, 02:18 PM

Before perfect gonzo was naughty bank.

ffmihai · 08-09-2006, 02:19 PM

for big programs is not a problem i guess! just for the show

ffmihai · 08-09-2006, 02:20 PM

nice skin btw this last one

lucas131 · 08-09-2006, 02:22 PM

Ir's strange that present skin header is all in gifs, no flash..

08-09-2006, 02:28 PM

Wasn't it silvercash that first skinned GFY?

andrej_NDC · 08-09-2006, 02:34 PM

25k and have to think long term...if a program gets new affiliates who make him only $200 more each day(and that should be easy), thats $6k per month and the skin is paid off in 4 months...

stickyfingerz · 08-09-2006, 02:40 PM

Fleshlight did the skin to kick off the redone affiliate program. To make sure everyone was aware it was redone, and make it clear the changes that were done. Plain and simple. People wanted them to make right on the problems they had, and they are doing their best to make it very very clear that they are the best upsell product out there.

KRL · 08-09-2006, 02:49 PM

$25K isn't much considering this site reaches tens upon tens of thousands of adult webmasters daily and gives you instant recognition.

I didn't say I won't.

And NDC is small yet, so I could only get middle sized maybe(150-500k gross monthly).

Pimpin_J · 08-09-2006, 03:00 PM

I love those fucking skins! Always nice to have some difference then always the same one.. i really like that one. Nice colors!

I thought you're middle sized already

then again, it depends on the definition

polish_aristocrat · 08-09-2006, 03:05 PM

Thats a lot of Flesh Lights!

polish_aristocrat · 08-09-2006, 03:21 PM

silver's cash random reality sites:

suckmebitch.com 1246
pimp4aday.com 2362
freshteens.com 1175

but the truly big programs like ND, TB or PG have many reality sites with faaar bigger scores

polish_aristocrat · 08-09-2006, 03:22 PM

btw fleshlight.com 918

but thats a product, not paysite

andrej_NDC · 08-09-2006, 03:28 PM

hmmm

Yeah, I know ND, TB, BBO, etc have huge numbers...but those are also huge companies. Millions or tens of millions per month.

aico · 08-09-2006, 03:32 PM

I dont' know, but if I paid $20k, I know for damn sure I'd want my big bold name to link to my site and not to the index.php of the site I am paying to be on.

08-09-2006, 03:55 PM

The branding that is done is worth the price. When meeting new webmasters in person, a lot of them say "Oh ya... You guys skinned GFY a while back, right?". That alone helps to break the ice.

StuartD · 08-09-2006, 03:57 PM

Put an XNations skin on it

fris · 08-09-2006, 04:00 PM

i thought it was 35k

UniversalPass Pete · 08-09-2006, 04:10 PM

Worth it if you have the program!

RayBonga · 08-09-2006, 04:18 PM

$20k is not that much these days.

People keep buying this kind of advertising so it must be working for them.

E$_manager · 08-09-2006, 05:38 PM

fat women all around the screen.... People would hate me here.

Persignup Dustin · 08-09-2006, 05:38 PM

fuck I have friends that barely make that in a year

vidvicious · 08-09-2006, 05:46 PM

As far as Branding goes ... skin will help launch your new product ..

As far as Fleshlight goes .. Fuckin aye .. Awesome job !!!!

Figure out what it costs to skin GFY, then figure what a layered popup ad costs (it's around 10K), then figure what a monthly top banner spot ad campaign costs, then figure what the bottom banners go for...

You can quickly come up with a monthly number of what GFY brings in.

bdld · 08-09-2006, 05:49 PM

definitely not worth it, im not sending sales just because someone skins gfy.
