Hope that helps you understand the basics. In my Educational Series posts on email I cover all this in 101. You should have a read. Quote:
It's an ethics thing. I will never, ever take money from you. So you can have my creative work for free. Use it if you want, learn from this experience if you can, and hopefully you will send out less dreadful emails in the future. If your designer wants the AI files, let me know I will send them Or don't. It's no skin off my nose either way. I've done the work. I think the ideas were good and I know for a fact any one of them would get you more clicks than the one you sent out. PS Don't just spam the same list the same email next week. It's insulting. Segment the non-opens and send them the same creative if you want, with a different subject. But please don't just send the same thing out again. PPS If things are tight, I am willing to pay for your use of a proper email service for a month so you can see how much of a difference applying just a little thought to your emailing makes. |

That's what I just LOVE doing. Coming up with interesting ideas for email that get people to click. The 24 one is my favourite I think, but the hourglass works too. I know the self-deprecating one would get the most attention, but he wouldn't have the balls to send that one. Takes himself too seriously. Anyway, they are now copyright free ideas. Anyone that likes any aspect of my work and ideas in this thread is free to use them in anyway they see fit. |

But a review site would be right up his alley. I am planning one myself for later this year (since these posts prove my honesty, heh) and I would employ Paul as a reviewer in a heartbeat. But again, with his problems with online porn and all things Peabody....LOL We'll see how it goes as we go along but regardless, Paul should absolutely do this. |

Paul Markham should write reviews, but they should only be printed in magazines.:2 cents:

From 1996 to 2007 I was averaging right around 90 to 100 grand a month as an affiliate. I KNOW how to sell pay sites. My cam and dating made good money but nothing as lucrative as selling memberships to paysites. That's why I'm saying that Pornhub and all the other tube sites just do not "get it" when it comes to fully monetizing their sites. They do the equivalent of when I used to sell spots on my "Nasty Nine" list on Ampland. In other words...pre-paid spots. That was nice cash...at 6 grand a text spot each per month (54 k in my pocket just for that ONE little section on the main page)...but the bigger picture was selling paysite memberships. I look at pornhubs individual video pages (and their main page) and it's like watching a child trying to figure out something...it's so fucked up. I could turn that kind of shit around and add to the monetization of the site by actually making GOOD sales to the paysites the video came from AND once that starts up...then Pornhub, Keez Movies, and all the other bullshit tubes that Manwin bought would stop being a pariah on our industry and start making everyone money. At that point...all the hiding behind DMCA would be pointless because people will WANT their content up there instead of being pissed that it got stolen and is being used to sell dating, cams, and penis pills. Manwin would actually be highly regarded. And the clown who fronts the company (fabian) would be treated like a king instead of taking an ass beating at a show. |

an idea that could work is putting a reviews section in the member's area of your paysites. write personalized reviews of a smaller amount of sites that you recommend. your reviews will be read by members that trust you, and your conversion rate will be much higher. member trades are the highest converting source of traffic in porn. members already have a history of buying porn and are usually looking for something new. merge the review concept with the member trade tactic and you will have a nice secondary income. |
Robbie.. somehow no one is giving me any ass beatings at shows :/
Neither do they give any of my employees any issues. When I'm at the next vegas show, I'll look out for you and wait for that ass beating.. can't really expect more from you than that.... Your remarks are all useless. Why even be here and brag about the 90-100k as an affiliate?! You do not understand tubes, so why do you think you can monetize them better than the ones that understand them most? That's beyond me.... your "suggestions" you posted here make no sense, especially not in connection with what I told you already... |
Fabian I haven't said I was going to beat your ass. But there are plenty of people that want to. But you know that already.
I'm not one of them because I solved my problems with piracy. As far as "understanding" tubes? Give me a break man. It's a SCRIPT. And not understanding or wanting to understand how to focus in and get people to click a link to the paysite that the video came from is your problem. I DO understand how to do that better than you, anybody on your staff, and anybody that you know. I'm done with you now. It was fun reading your posts for a while. I hope that the real owners of Manwin read this (they probably won't) and get somebody like me (there are about a few, very few) in there to take over. It really could start something that could turn the industry around. Meanwhile you just keep doing what you do... |
Robbie, no, that is not at all our problem. But that's the part you do not get...
Actually putting you into a group of "very few" people that are somehow masters at conversion and saying nobody I know is as good as you, that in itself, is hilarious. But that's how you are, gotta admire the persistence... You do not understand tubes, that's just how it is. Your suggestions scream that fact. If you actually had something to show for yourself (and no, 100k a month as an affiliate might be good, but its clearly not top of the industry) I would invite you to Montreal to tell my people to their face that they are idiots and that I am just a frontman... But since all you do is brag and pretend you are the best thing since sliced bread, why bother? If you actually had just an ounce of humbleness towards anything or anyone that does what you do, it would go a long way... but like you post, you are just an ass... |

And I'll gladly tell your "people" they don't have a clue. Anybody with eyes can look at Pornhub and see what it is. There's nothing there that shows any skills. Just prepaid ads jammed on in a nice spammy way. Just give it a rest man. I actually had considered flying to meet you and sitting down. But now? It would take a lot to get me to even consider doing anything with you. |

I just love it when Robbie pretends to have someone on ignore, then tries and fails badly to argue, then says THAT'S IT I'M DONE and then replies AGAIN 4 minutes later.
Discipline Robbie. Mullets need discipline. |

Started a paysite, in fact paysites. The content had to be from the content we had shot over the years. For reasons discussed I was not about to give up what we were doing and start shooting something exclusively for the paysites. would of meant giving up shooting in Czech IMO. Consultancy, is an interesting thing. We've got marketing men talking about tweaking or testing tours, buttons, emails and other small things. That's like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. It might make 1-1,000 viewing content on a free site go to 1-1,000 or even 3-1,000. It won't make a huge difference. Because none of what they suggest is the root problem. That's 999 people are looking at a sample or tour and moving on. The content didn't motivate them enough to stay longer. http://traffic.alexa.com/graph?&w=40...tral-blue.com& Interesting. It seems of the 1,000s who hit Misterpeabodyworld.com they only like what they see on average well enough to stay to see one page. My crap sites with my crap content and marketing seem to do so much better. Does my content make more people sit up and take a longer look, does it interest people more. Are the amateur crap tours so badly designed and laid out, getting a better response the peabody's tours? The fundamental problem this side of the porn industry has always had isn't traffic or marketing. It's surfers looking at what's on offer on not buying. We chose the solution of tweaking the marketing and throwing more traffic at it. Did it change the fundamental problem? No the problem got worse. more people were looking and not buying per 1,000s. Could I with my experience and knowledge change that problem as a consultant? Well as one of the few who see the real problem, I think I can do a better job then most. The problem is getting people to realise traffic isn't the indication of a sites success. It's conversions that matter. Quote:
It's not just paying for me, it's paying for the solutions. Can you afford it? Manwin can and I could improve their revenue easily. Problem is getting them to see the woods for the trees. |

Actually MisterPeabody has a good point. I could be a consultant to sites to improve their revenue. The way I would do it is easy.
Look inside their members area at the product. Give constructive helpful advice how to improve that product. Train, guide or advise their shooters how to improve their techniques. Nothing revolutionary, things I've learned over the years often by making the mistakes and improving my techniques as the years went by. My content sold in the top paying markets. I had to learn what would sell and wouldn't. I see elementary mistake all over the place. Yes my style is dated, doesn't mean my knowledge is. The same knowledge that worked years ago works today. The problem as MisterPeabody points out is few could afford me or the solution. It would need an investment in the product over time to get the results. You can't change the members area over night. |

www.misterpeabodyworld.com is simply my "Network landing page", a central place for surfers and members to go to make it feel more like a network. I don't have one Members Area but rather each individual site has its' own unique Mem Area. So that Mister Peabody World page acts mostly as a place for (mostly) surfers to go to see the latest updates. My stats show people stay "on site" for less than 30 seconds - they see an update then click to that tour. BUT I get a fuckload of directed sales from that site. (I don't send direct traffic there.) I've re-designed it to focus more on this aspect of the site (people checking it out for updates) and it goes live tomorrow: http://misterpeabodyworld.com/index1.php Now, people have to scroll down an I-Frame to see the updates; this new design they're right on top. Click - sale! As for review sites: As with everything I do I am NOT interested (because I am realistic here folks) in trying to become Manwin. Or even Robbie or TheDoc or...well, you get the point. I am one happy motherfucker, making as much as I do. I am not married, have no children, work from home, outsource the help I need and am getting rich (MY definition of "rich" - i.e., freedom) so I am extremely happy. Therefore my idea for a Review Site is simply this: NOT to review a thousand fucking shitty sites. NOT to review the "BROs" out there (they certainly don't need me). No, I want to target GREAT WEBSITES to review. If we had only fifty reviews on there, but every single one was a goddamned WINNER, then that's all we would need. Maybe a hundred. And I would pay for Memberships for the reviewers, no begging from the programs (who, you are right, would never let me inside). A hundred memberships is what? 3k max? part of the start-up cost. Also, I intend to put that review site on my network (tho none of my own sites would be reviewed). My Goal here is to make some extra coin for Mister P, NOT be the "next Rabbit's Reviews". So paying for Paul: since you make $0 posting all day on GFY for the same (or less) amount of work for writing a review you wouldn't get paid. You would get a percentage of sales, for one, and the credibility of having your opinions properly expressed and in a forum where it could help people (surfers). This should be reward enough, if you are as passionate about helping consumers as you come off here on GFY. Plus, a smart cookie would use those published reviews to get more gigs, more credibility and more. Plus, as you already know, writing is its' own reward. (Plus - more chapters for your ebook?) As you can tell, I have my own way of spinning things and it works for the 'Mister Peabody brand'. :) |

http://paulmarkham.com/temp/ce1.jpg What the fuck is that look on her face? It's about as erotic as my big toe. The "photography techniques" sucks. Looks like an amateur who hasn't progressed very far. also been done a 1,000 times. http://paulmarkham.com/temp/ce2.jpg Grainy and WTF is the appendix scar? Again nothing special. http://paulmarkham.com/temp/ce3.jpg Shit framing, you left the moles and spots on her body, where the post production? Also buy a razor and shaving foam for girls. Before you shoot a crap picture of their stubbly cracks. Also looks a bit on the yellow side. More post production work needed. http://paulmarkham.com/temp/ce4.jpg Crap framing, you chopped off the head of the girl looking at the camera. Out of focus, location shows a crap home, WTF is the white lead from the light meant to signify? Lighting is shit. Pose is a girl faking an orgasm. Very innovative. :1orglaugh http://paulmarkham.com/temp/ce5.jpg Again crap framing and you have no idea how to pose a girl to show her curves. The front leg should be to the front, the back arched more to push up the rear and take the shit look off her face. It's a very bad picture. http://paulmarkham.com/temp/ce6.jpg Again crap framing. Don't chop off the toes. Either crop the feet out or get them in the picture. Posing is amateur. Looks grainy. Again she needs to have a full bush or no hair, stubble isn't erotic. Also not a very attractive girl. Your stills work is worse than amateur. Amateurs learn and grow, they love what they do and strive to improve. Some of the best pictures I've seen were taken by amateurs. My work. http://paulmarkham.com/temp/0286.jpg http://paulmarkham.com/temp/asking.jpg http://paulmarkham.com/temp/glamour2.jpg You're not in the same league as me. You're in the amateurs game, I play in the professionals game. If you want I'll show you some more of my good work. These are better shots than any of yours. Framing, looks, exposure, focus sharp on his face and soft on the rest to give the emphasis to his sad look, posing all right. The picture tells a story. http://paulmarkham.com/temp/rajah0.jpg http://paulmarkham.com/temp/rajah1.jpg I'm a sad puppy stuck on the stairs/in the bath. :1orglaugh Or. How many more pictures do I have to pose for? |
Heh-heh-heh
Paul just laid the smack down! I gotta say I like your style when it comes to getting nasty! The pics of the pups put it over the top! :pimp |
I like puppies. :)

The pics of Rajah, were to illustrate the point of what he's trying to achieve. A picture should invoke an emotion. Be it a porn picture or a picture of a cute puppy. My pics of Rajah show just that. A sad little puppy all wet and forlorn getting a bath and trying to get out or stuck on the stairs having to pose for Daddy. Both invoke a feeling of AHHHHH! Porn again is meant to invoke an emotion or a notion. The first one of the girls kissing shows passion about to be released, the second one is a girl showing your her friends pussy and maybe asking you to look or join in, the third, a girl teasing you with the idea of her giving you a BJ. His pictures are often just meat laid out on a slab. And he's telling me I can't shoot erotic. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh |
Porn is porn...is porn...and 99.9% of it is boring with much of it being disgusting...in my opinion...(including Markam's) but then again I have not been a fan of porn since I was mid teens and discovered the real thing. The only porn subscription I ever had in my life was to Playboy magazine (I never considered the eye candy to really be porn) and like the cliche it was primarily for the articles of which they had many good ones over the years.

Computer skills are still valuable and will be always, because one is supperior to other, how ever you got some good points. in fact, what i think is some of adult webmasters are stupid and most of them just copy eachotherr, some they don't try differant methods and this is one of the biggest flaw imho. |
I like your pictures of the puppies. The other pictures you show have no originality or creativity, no use of photography, no use of lighting....
And please remember I am not the one telling the world how it should be done - You are. But this is your fault, you don't read books, you have never done a photographic course, you don't watch films, you live in a great country which has a great photographic and cinema tradition but you remain ignorant of it. You are rude about everyone else and so forgiving of your own crass mistakes. If you think your pictures are hot sexy or good photography you are deluded. You think you can't change lenses on a digital SLR camera. Less writing more reading called for. As I say read some books, watch some good movies, read about photography, then come and teach about framing.... |
Everyone should remember something basic about most (not all) people working in Adult:
This Industry is filled with people who couldn't get a job doing anything else. It's best to remember that. LOL |

Actually you're wrong about the lighting. Take another look at picture 1 and 3. 2 is for the teen market where they want the flatter lighting. They don't want the more pro pictures. http://paulmarkham.com/temp/0286_1.jpg To give you a clue. Can you tell where I had the lights and the way I got the effect? Maybe you would like to tell us about how you achieved your creative lighting in the shots you show on your tour. Mister Peabody has made a good post. Cherry, what is your full time job? |
