Business idea for someone to run with - GoFuckYourself.com

sarettah · 02-22-2010, 06:35 PM

I don't know if this has been done or not.

Back when 2257 became a hot issue I stopped doing galleries. This was because I didn't want or need the hassle of keeping the records or tracking down all the content providers I had content from to get all the 2257 docs. Once 2257 became more than me just pointing a link at the content producers site and listing their address it was too much of a hassle to be bothered with. (As a result I have a very large personal porn collection..lol)

I know many other people who got out of the biz at that time too.

So now it is a world of hosted galleries, hosted flvs, hosted everything in order to avoid that hassle.

Has anyone done hosted content yet?

The idea would be for a content provider to host the content that they sell to the webmaster/gallery builder.

They already have to keep the records so that hassle is already covered.

The provider would perhaps have to get a better server then they are using but in many cases they already have the necessary storage space and bandwidth as storage and bandwidth has become extremely cheap compared to back in the day.

It might work something like this:

I (webmaster/gallery builder) buy content package A.
The content provider provides me with links to the images and thumbs provided in the package.
I use the content provider as the 2257 info for the various galleries I build.
So I have better galleries for submission then if I use sponsor provided hosted galleries but I do not have the record keeping/legal hassle.

This could probably be accomplished through a small cms (meaning limited because it really does not have to do much). A combination of the cms and htaccess would keep unlicensed webmasters from hotlinking the content.

The content provider could do it as a sale or as a lease.

There might even be third party opportunities in this thing somewhere.

Anyway, it's just a thought.

Sorry if this is already out there.

Thanx for reading.

It also gives the content provider control over their content.

Honestly, its dangerous to the gallery guys... if the content guy's server goes down or he goes under they are fucked.

We done code, mainly security code, for something like this. Your basic .htaccess
makes it inconvenient for unauthorized people to hotlink, but not at all impossible,
and a certain percentage of surfers won't be able to see the content if you just
use a referer based .htaccess. The security certainly can be, and has been done, though.
On the technical side, it's a third party feed like you'd have in your members' area.
It's just marketed differently.

Why would you want to risk your whole business depending on someone else to maintain the hosting for the content that is your bread and butter? I've never even done fhgs and think they were a terrible road to go down. It scary enough depending on 3rd party processors.

harvey · 02-23-2010, 12:39 PM

I see your point, very reasonable, but if you're submitting to TGPs, most TGP scripts will reject your gallery for excessive links out, and like other people mentioned, you'd be relying on a 3rd party for your business. On top of that, this approach would be OK for a very limited number of sites, since it won't fit on any "reality style" site

You kind of lost me on the reality style site.

Why would it be different for a reality type site?

if you think using hosted flvs / hosted pic and playing/showing them on your website exempts your from having 2257 then guess what....

Having a discussion about that on another board too. Made me go back and revisit the actual wording on 2257 and you are right as far as I'm concerned.

However, it did start my pea-brain onto several other paths that might accomplish the same thing in the long run.

Key to it is to keep it from getting too fucking complicated. KISS always works best.
