Have a look at what quantcast says :
http://www.quantcast.com/thehun.net

Anyone I ever speak to who knows what I do asks me if I know the hun. I'm 24 and generally know people from the age of 18-30. Thats the first site anyone talks about to me anyway.

How to get listed on thehun? $500,right? :winkwink:

pornguy 06-27-2008 08:28 AM

That has nothing to do with design. Just availablity.

When your website buys you Ferraris.

You dont change it. :)

So how do you explain that some of biggest old sites lost 50% of traffic and thehun 30% in two years?

The ones whose traffic went down stopped paying for the exit and 404 traffic that sextracker sold. Heh-heh. People, one of the reasons the hun is STILL the biggest tgp in the world is because he doesn't change the basic way his site looks. Yes, he could add a tube section and other little things if he wants to. But he should NEVER change that basic design.
It's like when you go to Disney World and find that they have taken away one of your favorite rides. It pisses you off. Or if you go to that bar that has always been your favorite and find that they have changed the music, the look, the bartenders etc. to be more "modern".
The Hun should keep his basic look. It's what people know and love. Any of the big original TGP's that EVER change their classic style would be making a big mistake.
Yes, add some bells and whistles if you must. But you just don't change a legend.
Anybody remember "new" Coke? Or how about when Ford changed Mustangs to look like square boxes on wheels. Funny how all the newest Mustangs are back to looking like 1969 Mach 1's again isn't it?
I wouldn't give 2 cents for all the cold, heartess cookie cutter sites out there with no personality. I'll take the hun's yellow page with the crudely drawn "viking" cartoon characters any day.

Tehnicly you are right,i also hate when some site which i visit very often changes their design.But again,new design is important for new customers.It's a same no matter in what biz you are,with old design you keep old customers,but if you want new and more customers then you need to change it.

cranki 06-27-2008 08:53 AM

anyone have a photo of the hun at hand? I remember him being a long haired dude driving a lambo, or do I mix something up?

slapass 06-27-2008 09:11 AM

Why would anyone change a site that was the biggest and best in its market? Seriously what would be the point?

Ohh yah it might have been lambos not ferraris..

czarina 06-27-2008 09:26 AM

I love his yellow :)

Vicky Vette 06-27-2008 09:34 AM

Well I for one can tell you I have a lot of success using the hun.
In fact, when I first started making mgp's, I submitted there, and got so much traffic that it actually crashed my server! I upgraded all my hardware and software, and upped my bandwidth, etc... all because of the hun. I instantly know when my galleries have hit, because the hits go up and more importantly the signups go up.

Martin 06-27-2008 09:34 AM

The Hun visitors go for the niches. The surfers he lost are most likely the guys who found all the vanilla porn they'll ever need on tube8. He might have lost some traffic, but I think it's actually saving him and his submitters money on bandwidth because these are the guys who would never put a credit card # on any join page anyway.

People have been saying that the Hun is going down the shitter for at least 5 years now, and he still the biggest TGP, to this day.

TGPs in general are a bear in these days. I co-own one myself, and am the first one to admit that TPG traffic and conversions suck donkey dick right now. It's only logical that The Hun is impacted too.

The reason why the Hun is still big is because he is always friendly, clear, and professional. Many micro-TGP owners are behaving like fucking mini dictators, thinking somebody would even give a rats ass if they ban you from their loser-program that gets 4.000 visitors a day, because you accidentally submitted to the wrong category.

cotsios 06-27-2008 10:36 AM

if they earn money why to change?

Minte 06-27-2008 11:25 AM

The Hun knows what many don't...how to treat his traffic like customers.
You click a link at the Hun and you get exactly what it says. With the exception of a few times over the years when some asshole hackers messed with the site,it has been the cleanest most reliable adult site online.

The Hun will be here for a long long time.

Based on many of the responses in this thread, I finally am starting to understand why so many of you still use ICQ

pimpware 06-27-2008 01:56 PM

very clean galleries + fresh content + simplicity = TheHun


Content is king :thumbsup


I get galleries listed for free all the time, just be professional and don't be a smart ass.


The Hun is not the average wannabe tgp owner, he knows how to respect the user, the submitter and then he receive the respect of all.
He actually reply your emails if you ask something usefull, the average tgp owner just don't give a shit.

good for you. I have unfortunately experienced a big drop in number of sales and with the same prices and much lover traffic I had to give up after 4 years of buying spot orders on thehun

According to sextracker rank numbers, Worldsex, AL4A, Pinkworld and Sleazydreams traffic is half of what it was two, three years ago. Huns traffic will be soon half of what it was two years ago too.
Once in a time, I go to check their traffic numbers here:
http://ranks.sextracker.com/spn.html...se&pg=0-0.html
and I can say the decrease of traffic numbers is really fast. I can see that in 2-3 years, all those TGPs will be seen as really old model.
