Tube channels: more harm than good?
Hi,
now all the major (and probably minor) tubes have the "channels" with all the videos uploaded by certain producer. What good does it do? Whoever searches for that site will get those "channels" right away and whatch all the videos for free. Isn't the point of advertising on a tube just to give a taste of what's inside of the members area to generate more signups? Otherwise it's just a willing giveaway! Please let me know what possibly good side those "channels" might have for the producers? Thank you. |
Tubes were never meant to make producers money.

Folks, this is not exactly what I was trying to discuss, my point was that an accasional appearance of a SINGLE video with watermarks might create an interest to the site and hopefully create a sale, but these "channels" where all the "occasional" videos gathered together make the whole function of the members area questionable.
I hope this time I made my point clearer. It is not about stealing or anything, it is about those "channels" where all the videos from the same producer gathered in one place. |
kesha, I didn't misunderstand your point.
My point was they don't care about you as a producer, they care about their surfers and traffic. Most sell traffic/ads, so the more traffic they have, the better off they are. Putting content in channels sorted by producers makes for a better experience for surfers who like content from certain producers. Surfers like more = they return more often = more traffic = more money from ad/traffic sales. |
That I understand, but is there anything positive in "channels" for producers? No, right?
So, the best way will be to dismantle those "channels", so, the surfers will not see all your videos in one place, but keep the videos them selves, in case largeporntube or other "leaching" tubes have linked to the major tubes videos, right? |

HOWEVER, by doing so, there's a lot positive for tubes. First, as mentioned above, it enhances the surfers' experience on the site. Second, they actually end up ranking very high in the search engines, for producer names and paysite names. So more traffic for them. Now you can argue that if they don't cater to the needs of producers/paysite owners, they won't get content uploaded. Which is pure wishful thinking. There are so many content producers and paysite owners out there hurting for those few sales, it's not even funny. And they lost the sales because of tubes to begin with. :1orglaugh Tubes have the traffic so they can dictate the terms. Worst-case scenario, producers/paysite owners really stop uploading their content to tubes. Fine, they'll just start stealing it again. Which is how they got big in the first place. Sucks to be in your shoes, but unfortunately there's very little you can do about it. |
I do post vids to tubes (max 5 per site), but I would not post to a particular channel and I rarely use the models name in the title or description, I want them to find 1 or 2 of our vids on tubes, get a taste and come for more, if the models name was on every vid it would be a pointless exercise, I don't want them to have 25 vids on one page, that what my members area is for. Right or wrong, that's the way I do it. Having a channel dedicated to one site or one model who owns a site, imo is stupid.

Stop listening to the people who have no idea and live in the past. Just some free advice :2 cents:
Ps, get me your videos and I will make you a channel. Long videos without our link code straight to your domain. Create some brand awareness using the tubes ;) |

dirty, r u high? I am talking about a completely dufferent side of it now: keeping the videos on tubes for the sake of the links to the leaching galleries. |

If he removes all the ads from all his pages with your content on, it's a plus. If he lets surfers see other peoples ads on other pages, he's just adding content to get more traffic to sell cheap. And give you nothing in return but some crap traffic. Roald, go buy some content to attract surfers to sell clicks to who's left. kesha1 Unless your content is so bloody marvellous surfers will have to buy it, Tubes are not going to be a great way of advertising it. Extreme example. When was the last time you saw an advert for shit that you had to go buy? |

http://nymag.com/news/features/70985/ "Manwin, in fact, has studied the question of optimal clip length. ?We tested one minute, three minutes, five minutes,? Antoon says. ?The best converting for the content owner is three minutes. The best for the tube sites?for the surfer to come back and back?is five minutes. So we always ask for three to five. We don?t mind if they send us seven to nine.? " Mainstream spends 60 to 100 million to make a movie and most trailers are 30 secs, now and then there is a special extended 2-3 min trailer. But porn knows better lol |
Quote:
a mainstream movie trailer is the length is it for several reasons that have nothing to do with showing the audience what they are going to see. First off, when a big budget movie is announced, the average trailer is 90 seconds for the first several weeks, then shortened to 45 seconds (obviously this varies). This is not because they only want you to see that much! It's because it costs $105,000 to show a 90 second trailer once on a network during prime time. That 45 second trailer, still costs $52,500 to air once! Porn producers don't pay $100,000 to show their trailer once! I've seen trailers for big movies 10 times during prime time in 1 night, that's $1M they spent that night, just on the channels I was watching. now, take away the cost, and assume that they could show their trailers for free, would they do the same? NO, their trailers would be exactly 2 minutes and 30 seconds every time, why? Because it is mandated by the Motion Picture Association of America, they aren't allowed to make them any longer. |

Now we have traffic sellers telling us the more content they can give away the better it is for everyone. Which in truth means them. Quote:
Still this thread proves to you guys once and for all CONTENT IS KING. Give it away and the traffic follows. Shame it's value then becomes $3-$5 per 1,000 clicks. But don't worry we have millions of surfers. :1orglaugh |

Referring to the question: change the question mark into a exclamation mark and you have your answer. But then again you might want to ask: "or are there any exceptions"?

"The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) mandates that theatrical trailers not exceed 2 minutes and 30 seconds in length, and each major studio is given one exception to this rule per year." if you are watching trailers on the internet, and they are around 90 seconds, they were shot for television (in most cases) if they are around 2:20 - 2:30 they were shot for viewing in the theater (theatrical trailers); if their length is longer than 2:30, they were specifically shot for internet promotion. |

Don't you juz luv how a gfy thread can get carried away to wherever it is it gets carried away? :)
Pplz, the questions were (are): 1. Should the channels be unconditionally dismantle because there is only harm to the producers and no good what so ever? 2. Should the videos remain on the tubes for case that some TGP alike "tubes" have them liked. Then only a seldom videos are exposed, not the whole bunch, which is more like advertising, not a give away, right? |

It's already been pointed out that tubes don't give a rat's ass what's good for a paysite, they just want free content. I mean, shit, when did that become news? So, again, it's up to people who produce the porn to change things. If you don't support tubes then don't support them, and take action against them to stop using material without permission. It's that simple. But people would rather just talk and whine about it impotently instead. It's laughable. You get threads here about Japan cracking down on music downloads, and the same bunch of dipshits jacking each other off about what a win it is, when it makes no fucking difference at all to porn downloads. The music and music industry does not give a single thought to porn and the law doesn't give a single shit. Do people seriously think the law/police are going to treat downloading porn clips the same way as downloading TDKR? Yet people seem to think Hollywood or the music industry is somehow their shining knight. Point me to a tube site that hosts, openly and categorized like a porn tube, Hollywood movies or full music albums. Why don't they exist? Maybe because the music and movie industry is not licking the balls of tube sites, while whining about it through a mouthful of dick. You know exactly what to do. Stop supporting tubes, and spend less time whining about them and more time cracking down, if they really are stealing your content. Otherwise just shut the fuck up about tubes and quietly roll over and die. |

TGP's are gone, tubes are hot at the moment and used as an advertisement tool by all producers. It all has nothing to do with stealing or sharing, all the content was submitted voluntarely, for advertisement. The questions described above and at this time the only concern remains with the "tube" alike tgp's that linked the videos from the real tubes, for that the videos should stay on the tubes, right? |

While you're at it why not torrent your shit too, or upload it to file lockers, because pirates, like tubes, also come up with that classic about it being 'free advertising'. It's a crock of shit, and you and everyone else knows it. It's just a way of trying to feel better for caving in to tubes. |
Quote:
I don't usually listen to anything Manwin has to say, but when it comes to what types of tube clips are the most productive, I'm all ears. Everyone else can kick rocks. |
It's hilarious seeing people suggest that sharing 10 minute clips is good for your pay site business. Come on people. Look around. Look at the industry. Look at the pay site business. Look at all the people closing their sites. What the hell do you think is going on? Talk about having ones head buried in the sand.
Oh it's profitable still to put a bunch of 20 minute full scenes up on your tube by the thousands. For sure.....as long as you aren't the one paying to produce that content! Theft usually is profitable! LOL |

How do you people think important it is to keep the videos on tubes? For instance pornhub has a Delete button on every video, so, as soon as it is through the front page it could be deleted and there will be nothing to gather in a site channel, but so many videos are linked to so many nitche pages, just 1 by 1, without any channels, so, it is pure advertiesmsnt. We have our own tube and would love to host our own videos, but of course the tube alike tgp's are leaching from a major ones. That's the dilemma. |

As for people who claim to be super mega anti-piracy, while sucking the cock of tube sites by uploading videos themselves: :1orglaugh |
