BestXXXPorn Finally Launches...
After having been in development for two years we've finally decided to release an alpha. :thumbsup
You may be wondering why such a simple site took two solid years of development but the technical guys will understand when I say... The system was built from the ground up including a complete rewrite of a framework I have been developing (and using) for the past 11 years. In addition, the system is built to scale to any size and could easily support over 100k concurrent users (with proper hardware of course). The time sync in this project has come from a few other areas as well; signing up with 600 sponsors, indexing thousands of sites and passes, importing 100s of 1000s of FHGs and 1000s of videos, not to mention processing all of that content... Don't use IE, we haven't had time to cross browser check all of it... IE9 should work great though, maybe a couple styling issues but... Mostly complete: http://girls.bestxxxporn.com http://photos.bestxxxporn.com Skeleton / Release Schedule page: http://www.bestxxxporn.com There are many, many pieces which have already been developed but have not been implemented... A full tube site, for one, is just around the corner. Every piece of tube content comes directly from sponsors, is attributed to sponsors, and traffic from the page that video is displayed on is directed to that sponsor; no funny business. You'll notice the same thing done with Photos and in fact, every single model portrait that was taken is also accredited to the site it came from. Even the front page image used on the girls site is attributed to TeenModels.com... This will always be the way of this network of sites. How this network is different... Social Networking - While almost none of the social networking type features are currently enabled, within the next month or so you'll see an abundance of functionality appearing allowing users to communicate with each other, compare favorites, etc... Advanced Popularity Calculation - Each piece of content (girls, photos, videos, sites, etc...) has the ability to have "Social Actions" place weights against the content in order to bubble it to the top in a popularity ranking system. In order to keep fresh content constantly moving the system utilizes a time deterioration mechanism on actions in order to de-weight older content. This system is real time and uses an eventually persistent memory driven back end (i.e. it's lighting fast). Everything is Tracked - Every view of every piece of content, every keep, every share, every action is tracked indefinitely; and not just counts. Thanks to NoSQL solutions this is now a possibility and opens up a world of options to developers... Recommendation Engine - One of the crux pieces of this network is its ability to recommend new content to members. I'll explain this process a bit. Every piece of content is tagged with niches (and in the future, user created microniches). Based on a user's habits and "Keeps", as new content comes in we can tell what a user will most likely really enjoy. Because we store all views of each piece of content we can also determine, with a very high probability, if they have ever seen this piece of content. Users can opt to be notified by RSS and/or Email. Email notifications are configurable to the extent of setting your email frequency, types of content you'd like to be notified about, and even setting a minimum popularity ranking content must reach in order to "qualify". No Ads - Anywhere... there will be some "featured content" areas but they will not be paid placements. Every penny of revenue from this site will be derived directly from sponsor payouts. Did I mention we only use profit sharing for every sponsor and never PPS? Even though I realize the benefit of selecting PPS for some sites (especially ones that don't rebill well) I couldn't care less about playing the PPS/RevShare switching game. I want every lead to be profitable to every sponsor I promote, not profitable by averages... A Few Things in the Works Not Mentioned on the WWW Site Coming in November / December we will also be launching a sponsor interface to the network. Here's a few highlights of what will be available from the sponsor login: 1) Ability to see what Passes, Sites, and Content we have indexed for your site(s) as well as reviews of each site and ratings. You'll also be able to see where your content falls into the queue with expected "go live" times for each entry. 2) Breakdown of what content has already been processed; what has been approved and what has been rejected. You'll also be able to resolve conflicts and/or update information across the board for any of your sites, galleries, etc... 3) Performance breakdown; a look into how well your content is performing on the BestXXXPorn Network. Full stats, charts, and graphs representing the "popularity" of your content on our network. 4) Competitor Insight; in addition to seeing how you stack up against the global rankings at BestXXXPorn, you'll also be able to compare your own sites against other sites... 5) What's Hot; real time information on the best performing models and best performing content. This would make better sense when placed in context of this network being successful in the future and commanding a good bit of traffic. A good example would be: Charlie Laine has been "Kept" by more users than any other model. What this means is new content featuring Charlie Laine will be recommended to more users than any other model. or Lupe Fuentes gets more Views than any other model; so a new photo sample or gallery would receive more raw traffic from this network than any other model... 6) The Obvious Stuff; contacting us, updating information, adding new sites, uploading CSVs (if you'd like, we also pull them automatically in a queue for processing), creating new user accounts for employees (or associating existing ones), etc... Long Story Short The development road map is looooong but paved with gold! According to our internal development docs there is a little over 4,000 hours worth of development left; just in what has been speced out... This doesn't include any long term development goals, additional sites, and/or about 6 other ideas I have to extend the network... Feedback I welcome any and all feedback... feel free to send me an email directly, hit me up on ICQ, or use the feedback system on the sites from the SocialBar at the bottom of every page ;) |

Congrats, just tweak it from time and time and you'll done fine :-)
|
2 years development time sure seems like a pain. But the suggestion idea based on tons of data could do well... if surfers care.
|
summarize the concept in four words.

It's like writing something like CakePHP or CodeIgnitor from the ground up and, in addition, extending the functionality to work with a custom memory resident, eventually persistent, storage system... as well as handling all sorts of things on the back end to clean up all the nasty sponsor data that's out there. For example... a part of the admin functionality is Read FLV imports, Fetch the metadata remotely, Attempt pseudo streaming, If metadata is not present -> Download file, inject metadata, push to local streaming server If pseudo streaming fails -> download file, push to local streaming server Once file is in place -> fetch 10 separate file fragments via pseudo streaming, capture first frame as a jpg of each stream fragment, update status that the flv is ready for review Once a file is ready for review -> attempt auto niche tagging of content based on video metadata and sponsor provided niches, manually approve to verify and add niche tags Then it goes live... That's just one process... This network already has a feature rich administration system. |
Porn users rarely care to really socialize, except when there's something worthwhile and free to download (such as full length clips or better full site rips). And even then most of their "socializing" is a link to download a clip and a few "thx".
Making them to socialize on a network filled with fhgs only will not be easy, but you definitely have some interesting and fresh concept there so maybe there's a chance it'll get off the ground. Good luck to you anyway, and congrats on the launch :thumbsup |

And I completely understand where you're coming from, I wrestled with the idea myself a good bit and decided that the Recommendation Engine would be the key focus rather than the actual social networking portion. The social aspect is there for people who want to use it but really the system is about cataloging what you like most so that, rather than having to surf around the web through the vast array of porn, you can get custom recommendations emailed to you, based on what your want, and delivered on your own schedule. That's primarily where I see the real value ;) To do that accurately, however, is very difficult and requires a ton of metadata on every piece of content, hence the obscene development time, hahah. So the goal, in the end, is that you don't have to go searching for porn to jack off to, it's in your inbox, or on one site/network with the latest content from all the sponsors, already waiting for you... It's about reducing the time it takes to find the porn you want to watch, and in that process directing users to sponsor sites that fulfill their personal taste the best. |
Looks nice and all but the domain is kinda boring and long, not very catchy. I am sure you could have come up with something better to use. Something based more on what your site offers on a personal preference level.

Great looking site. I understand your pain programming. I've been developing a site for months now...
I love the layout (the other guy is crazy). Unfortunately, we'll probably be competing. You're doing one thing that is the main focus of my site. Luckily, that part has already been perfected. I'm glad to see another nice site though. If you need any tips or opinions, feel free to shoot me a message. Good luck man. We all need it |
congrats on the launch, i can see its really a baby project for you !
just be sure you can easily replace / swap out sponsors and all their fhgs and i clicked on K under browse by model name, tons of models with no bio, no thumb, no nothing....hope you have a automatic system to manage/update all of them. |
Write a press release?
|
Nice Smart Thumbs skin and which script are you using? :p
|
Congrats on the launch!
