morons running chatroulette
I know he is just a kid, but still. You'd think there'd be someone there that would advise him to at least put some webcam or dating ads on the site if he was going to take it offline for three days. (or more)
http://chatroulette.com/ What a waste of traffic.

I don't participate in the site, I let a browser run in the background with some looped videos with my domain names on them, and it works pretty good.
Feel free to post your cock if you'd like though.

Just another in the long line of things he's done to kill the site. Traffic has been going down for a while and seemed to really dip a couple months ago when he put up the message about no nudity and involving law enforcement. I'm sure he had an opportunity to sell it early on and as far as I can tell he never did and now the value is only a fraction of what it once was.
I thought when the push was made to rid the site of all of the cocks jacking off a few months ago, it was a great opportunity to put up an affiliate link directing the playful adult traffic to a cam or voyeur swinger site. Its like he's so scared of putting any kind of noticeable advertising that even the one dating link he's had up forever he labeled "ad" to dissuade people from clicking.

The thing I don't understand is how did he get the first 1,2,3,4,5 people using the site? How did he get people to find out about it and how did he get people to then decide to broadcast their cam. Who wants to turn their cam on, on a site that has no one else on it? How did he get past that hurdle to get the snow ball running. Once thousands of people know about it and are using it then it will grow legs and take off on it's own. Anyone could have done the programming for a site like that to start it, but how in the hell did a kid ( I am assuming with no budget to buy tons of traffic) get those first couple people to the site and then get them to turn their cams on when no one else was there????

Yeah I remember reading that back in March, but still don't know if he took an VC money or entered into any partnership. I do recall the site having server issues in Jan and Feb and then seemed to bring on a bunch of new servers and speed up greatly in March, so maybe something did happen. If all he did was receive VC money then I think its been a loss-loss, and i don't ever see it getting back to the traffic levels it once had.

Heard something about the guy from Napster "advising" him.
It's probably more than just the 17 year old kid working on the site now. |

He got VC money. While everyone wants to harp on him for not having an ad up while the site is being updated why don't you wait and see what "experiment #2" is. I think you may well see he has a plan.
VC $$ used to be pretty easy to get but these days they have been burnt enough so I doubt they gave money to a company run by a 17 year old without having a huge say in the direction of the site. There are many huge sites out there today that never made a profit in their first few years of existence - facebook, twitter, et al.

They shouldn't have left the site as a total dead end, at the very least they should put in an "email me when this site launches" function. They probably won't lose many of the regulars, but for first timers, they may not come back.

Here's an early article that I had bookmarked. Just as with most other articles I read, he wasn't willing to sell any of the site even for huge amounts, I think that will prove to have been a big mistake. http://www.fastcompany.com//1575541/...-us-and-russia

Once several hundred people are using it and there is at least a small group of people on at all times, then I can see it being viral because it is something worth spreading and talking about to other people. Who is going to say "hey go check out this new site called chatroulette I sat on there last night with my cam on for an hour and no one poped into my room" or " I went to this site called chatroulette but there was nobody on cam". It's hard enough to launch any site like a classified site or dating site, but to launch a cam site is 100x harder since you need people on cam and viewers at the same time, all the time to make it have any chance of taking off... and to do all of that with no budget for advertising, no studio to help try to cover all the times slots... how in the world did he get the site to where it became viral. how did he launch it and have it get traction ????

Just about the only way I can think of to get past that hurdle when launching just about anything is to have a lot of money to throw at it to get it started OR have an existing source of traffic you can tap into. Kind of like starting a fire with a blow torch, turn off the blow torch and it has a little flame, then it grows on its own from there.

anyway, the thing is, his traffic is about is worthy as 4chan's, they have a ton of traffic, but the demographic spends about $0 on porn, and the nsfw theme that gravitates there makes the traffic unsellable to mainstream... he may have gotten bump in curious traffic from mainstream media attention after the fact, but the core traffic there is not going to buy anything |

He wanted too much money or give away too less for participations, the site will die and he will cry later. He really got the best offer out there and choose to not chose

it is quite a waste. That site could have been sold for a huge chunk of cash a while ago.

All he had to do was post his url in a few key forums, chat rooms, etc... to generate some interest and get a few dozen on cam and once word of mouth spread and he got a few hundred on cam it was all gravy from there.

If for fact that is how he did it I would have to believe it assuming he was telling the truth or someone could document it. Doesn't seem logical to me though. So all I have to do is whip some $10 programming together and throw it on some forums and I can blow up the site with millions of people on it in a short people of time. Not to mention, the same dilemma still exists, if he posted the link everywhere how did he get people to stick when they went to a site that had no one on it. He would have had to post the link 1000's of times to try to generate enough traffic to kick start it. There has to be more to the story, if it was that easy then it would be happening a lot more often. Just doesn't make sense. Or am I getting old and don't believe that anything can happen that easy like how I use to think 10+ years ago. Lazycash, hit me on ICQ when you have a chance... 86364801

Idiotic. Especially when there are almost identical competing sites that are stealing away their visitors, like chathopper.com, etc.

What you do, when a shitsite like that get so much attention, is to sell it to the first idiot bidding. Then run away with the money, fast.

If the guy did get the site featured on some big website that sent him 100,000's of hits right away then yeah, that would be more of an explanation that I was trying to find. He got lucky or had a connection to a ton of traffic. I'll make myself sound stupid to you and ask, what is a "meme" and "4chan".
