I am the Webmaster of Emily Bloom's official site (Introduction)
 

Greetings! I am the webmaster of theemilybloom.com which is the official website of nude art model Emily Bloom. You may know her for her work with Met Art, Hegre-Art, Watch4Beauty and many others. Glad to be a part of this forum, looks like there are many great people and resources here!

Our site launched less than 2 months ago and we are off to a great start so far. We just launched an affiliate program and already have a lot of great content up on the site. We are looking into new forms of promotion and advertising as well and I'm sure you guys will have some great tips on that. Fortunately we get a lot of traffic on her name alone so that helps too.

I look forward to chatting with you all.

Welcome here!
nice site and girl!

Welcome! And thanks for not posting acting like you're Emily. Kudos for the honesty.

P.S. Emily is a cutie!

Yup, what he said. It makes a refreshing change :)

Welcome

Some smoking models on your site :thumbsup:thumbsup

Welcome to GFY!

dear webmaster of Emily Bloom's official site,

Please ask Emily if there's anything more to life than being really really really really really ridiculously good looking.

Welcome enjoy your stay

Welcome! She's a pretty girl!

Is her dad's name Leopold??

Welcome to the stew ...

She has a nice body, welcome.

Site is sooooooooooooo slow

I was going to say that, its a refeshing change.

Thousands of horny webmasters are visiting this website right now, imagine that.

I thought the site was broken at first but it was the video trying to load. I'm on a 100mbs connection and it still took 10-15 seconds for the vid to load.

May want to look into that.

****EDIT

And Emily is smoking HOT!

Site loads very slow for me as well.

Thanks guy! I was actually uploading for a new post so that probably has something to do with it being slow ATM but I will definitely look into that some more.

Wow, slow loading site and way too many questions on join pages.
You need to optimize your WP script. Im guessing its running way too many queries and plugins for your server. Cache it. :2 cents:

Caching now on, and banner video gone, that should help. What do you mean by too many questions?

The site is probably loading slow because it's using Wordpress framework with A BUNCH of installed plugins, including Woocommerce, which runs a lot of processes. The Wordpress theme looks like Bridge, from Themeforest. It's a parallax theme, which can sometimes be bloated.

It's also hosted on Cloudflare, which looks like a shared server (I could be wrong). If the site generates a lot of traffic by say, posting a link to it on a popular adult forum, then it will probably run slow. If that's the case, it may be time to upgrade to a dedicated.

Your join page has lots of fields to fill out. Stuff like "additional information". Make it simple "pick your password and user name". The whole thing is "you are one click away from jerking off". You have it as if they are joining a dating site.

Or he will get a boot from his provider for running too many nods
Why cloudflare? Who are you hiding from? KGB?

It looks like Woocommerce, not sure that's the ideal solution here. But that's up to the webmaster. The additional information can be removed, the rest is necessary for billing. He should have a link to TOS on there as well as how the site will be billed on credit card statements.

Emily is a sweet girl, very nice looking

congrats on the opening

LoL ok cloudflare is gone, WP super cache up and running, and SSL only on payment pages. Optimization in progress. Anyone noticing a difference?

just joined

Wish you successful work.Good luck

nice site :thumbsup

wow counted 57 .js files in source at https://theemilybloom.com/emily-bubble-chair/
but still congrats on the launch :)

No pics???????

Welcome :D

Cloudfare is good! Don't listen to clueless people.

Welcome to the board Emily

I have 200mps and still loads slow..I use https://gtmetrix.com/ to help locate things on my sites that slows it up.. good tool to use :2 cents:

my experience with themeforest themes is horrible. Every one of them loads as slow or slower than this site. The slowness is built in the themes. The creators probably think 'we have to stuff it full with options otherwise people will not pay for it'.

The almost 60 js files are probably all built in the theme.

I always go with popular simple free themes. Support from the wp community and super fast loading sites.

welcome and :321GFY

Welcome to the show

Welcome and good luck with your site

Thanks guys, we are really working on the optimization. We set up some belated caching and compression and will probably do a bit of a server upgrade in the near future. But like some people said it does seem like some of that delay is built into the theme and we will tackle that soon. Oh and Emily wanted me to tell you she is flattered by all of the nice comments. Happy to be here!

Hi, you're cute.

Wow soooooo fucking hot in that pic ^^^^

Have affiliate program?

I had another look.

I found again the site loaded very slow - theemilybloom.com

Once loaded it looks like a blog.

In fact the only point when you have an idea its a pay site is when you click on the 'Join Now' link: theemilybloom.com/product-category/memberships/

But even then it simply ask you to join, it does not say what I a joining. I have no idea if its to see content or not.

I would not know this is a pay site and think its a blog and just leave.

Its important your site loads quick and within 3 secs you know what the site is about.

You will loose many people simply on the basis the site loads slow and it looks like a blog.

It is a blog. It's using Wordpress. :2 cents:

No offense to the webmaster, but the site doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, so it could have been developed totally avoiding Wordpress all together. It would load faster, optimize better, and you would have more control over the flow of content. I just designed a site using HTML5/CSS3/Javascript/Bootstrap, and you would never be able to tell it wasn't a Wordpress site if you didn't look at the source code. And I'm only running six scripts, not 60. Just food for thought.

Affiliate program is on, any promo material to present and promote your site on my blog?

on the affiliate page: "We give you a 40% lifetime revenue share and we pay all of the fees!"

who pays the fees?
hehe

I've got WP sites loading fast.
You just have to use the correct theme and the needed server according to your traffic.
Not everybody is a Javascript/Bootstrap programmer!

welcome to the zoo!

welcome to GFY!

Most of the themeforest items are super bloated. Most of them are built to look pretty, not run fast.

Emily is cute though.

Yap themeforest themes do look really nice, but they are usually awfully slow
