How do you promote paysites? what are the issues with promo tools?

[CarlosTheGaucho]

Will be hiring a dude to work on the promo tools soon, therefore the question.

Another thing:

What sucks with promo tools?

quantity > quality?

how often you do you have to request custom promo tools?

I had a couple people asking me for specific tools already in the beta, need to get more suggestions to be well prepaired for the hard launch.

I don't need any promo tools, I use a 1 minute clip with a text link, or alternatively a large thumb linking directly to the tour... The only thing I need is one FHG and I import the clips and use one of the thumbs on the gallery.

I never understood this industry's fascination with banners... Surfers are trained to avoid them.

I use almost all of it.

quantity and quality both are important but i stay with the quality of the pictures!

[CarlosTheGaucho]

Well I am sure it's a bit of off topic on an adult webmaster board, but I would appreciate more input..

c'mon don't force me to bump this..

Well I remember back in my surfin days I hardly clicked a banner unless it was something extremely, extremely original.

That's basically how I do it. However, one of my sponsors I only promote via a skyscraper banner and its one of my best selling things. I just tossed it up there over 6 months ago to see and will never move it.
