VOD company to manage adult content, advise on gay market
SAN FRANCISCO ? Top Gay VOD provider NakedSword.com and FriendFinder Inc announced today that NakedSword.com will become the official VOD site for the company?s popular OutPersonals.com dating site.
?We?re very excited to help Friend Finder maximize the adult-oriented traffic on OutPersonals.com,? said Tim Valenti, President of NakedSword.com. ?We specialize in fantasy and they specialize in reality; together we can help make OutPersonals a great destination for gay and bi men.?
In addition to being the lead VOD on OutPersonals.com, NakedSword.com will help advise FriendFinder on the gay marketplace. ?NakedSword.com has been a top VOD provider for nearly a decade and their knowledge of the gay consumer is invaluable,? said Legendary Lars, President of Friend Finder Inc. ?It made sense for us to partner with a gay-owned company that could speak to our audience in an experienced manner.?
While NakedSword will be the flagship VOD provider, gay porn consumers are increasingly discriminating and demand a wide variety of choice. To that end, NakedSword will secure partnerships with leading amateur, fetish and niche sites, as well as supporting content providers to make OutPersonals a true destination site.
?We?ve built our reputation on knowing the value of good content,? said Valenti. ?We?ll use that knowledge to develop a first-class adult section for OutPersonals consumers.?
