Fuck me. Typical that I am over on the other side of the pond and missed this interesting debate. However, I'm here now to clarify a few things.

Figures for 99bb.com ?

These have been exagerated slightly who doesn't in this industry :winkwink: , but we are not going to give you the exact figures on this board, or any board in fact. Like most of the other sites with these sorts of numbers. We have Approx 30,000 Asian members with a retention of 5 months +

Traffic coming to our site ?

99bb in Asia is pretty much a brand. we have a reputation for providing uncensored Japanese Movies. It would be the same for the large sites in the West. Dont want to name any, as there are so many, hence the saturation of the market.

we get over 100,000 a day visitors to our Site from Japan alone, which is where most of our members are from. China is the next biggest source at 50,000 + however our Chinese members are non existant. Please dont believe the hype about China being the next big thing. Not for another few years yet anyway. They just want the free stuff and bolt, hence why I'm sure alot of the western sites are seeing an upsurge in Chinese and Taiwanese traffic ?????

Korean traffic is pretty good. Not alot of it at the moment, approx 15000 hits but it is converting pretty well

Payment methods ?

About 95% of our Asian members pay via Credit Card. We do not even offer a JCB card, but this is changing. 5% pay via post. Therefore this proves that the Asians are willing to pay over the Internet with Credit Cards

How and why figures are as they are ?

As LostMind has said, there is little free porn available in Japan, and the stuff that there is, is often Censored. Hence, alot of them will visit "Western" owned TGP's for their free content. In Asia, the common method of advertising/gaining traffic is via Reviews. Lots of sites will write a fair bit about you, show several tame pictures and thats it. Jesus, how novel, some honesty!!!!! Like someone said in the thread, deceiving the visitor into thinking he will be seeing Asians, when in fact he isn't just isn't done. Unlike the west.

Eru and Mech mentioned several sources of decent traffic. These are basically the equivalents of the Hun et al but dont offer free content, just review and links.

What content do they like ?

Brujah mentioned about this, and yes, we are finding that our members are after different content. Most of the Japanese Movies are much the same, bar the different girls. that is why we have a selection of Full Length European and Us Titles to keep them amused. Admittedly most of them are hardcore stuff, SM bizarre etc.. as this is the sort of thing most of them are after.

Shoplifter seems to know his stuff on the Asian market, DMM is indeed a great site. There are also a number of others that I'm sure have far more scope in the market than 99bb or HGMO do.

western sites getting into the Asian Market?

There are very few sites out there that have Japanese translations, and even if they do, you need a Japanese support team, knowhow in the Market etc, etc... Admittedly their command of English is good, but the majority would prefer to deal in Japanese for sure.

Christ, probably left out plenty of shit, or went on a little too much. Hope this clarifies a few things, if not, send me an email and I'll try to help.

Now I'm off for a :glugglug

Open a good word processor, switch your input language to Japanese (the little blue box, EN, JP, etc) and type away!

nice post. you're in Amsterdam eh?

What does "99bb" mean?

99 Big Butts?

99 Bukkake Bitches?

Is it 99 Broadband?

I sold a little bit of traffic to 99bb.com a couple of months ago(50k total) but from what I understand, it didn't convert too well...You would really have to have very targeted traffic for these kind of sites if you want to pull any decent signups...which brings us back to the biggest hurdle for us english speakers, which is if you want to be a player in the asian market, you better get working on getting that asian traffic.

99 Brown Bear

It's a sign!

Hey guys,

quiet, Yep, I'm in Amsterdam. Great place, but often a buggar chatting with you guys on the threads.

99bb stands for 99 broadband. we were formally GON.

Hi Metaform. Fuck knows what happenned with your traffic. The sign ups weren't great. But that is not putting your traffic down. Basically, the site is geared towards the Asian Market, and we really need to revise it for the West.

I have a few contacts over there if people want uncensored content.. i'd have to ask them about exclusive though.

Its a sign !!! I like that, but then we would be a cooking site :1orglaugh

I like the name 99 Bukkake Bitches better. :glugglug

Jamie, whats up bro. :) Yeah, I don't know what happened..usually it converts better, but then again, my traffic is more targeted towards 'adultbouncer' type of sites...Did you at least make your money back somewhat? or did it totally tank?

99bb is your webmaster program paying a flat rate of $15/signup or is $15 recurring?

I'm looking at this url:

Confusing:

Earn US$25 per registrant!

Introduction to 99BB Partner Program

99BB.com is currently paying US$15 to all affiliate program partners for each new member that they refer. This represents a staggering 75% of the monthly membership fee !

I wouldn't say it totally tanked. A worthy experiment. Just kidding. The way you promoted us was great, but like I said, I think the site needs a bit of an overhaul. Looking into it at the moment.

I dont know how you guys burn the midnight oil. I'm nackered and its just gone 1pm

4:25am here.

5:25 am....and im just about to do a arm workout(no, not masturbation)...hoping to go to sleep at 6:30
5 am is my goal, but havent had too much success lately

Shit, I thought my guy had changed that. Will do so asap.

Basically we offer $15 for the first 5 sign ups, and then $25. We also are having a small promotion where if we feature prominantly on your site, ie banner on TGP, you can receive some extra cash, up to $600.

As the thread has stated, we are pretty big in the Asian Market, but small fry in the west. Need to change this

jah

I chew on coca leaves.

5:25 am here

7:28 here. Time to head to the office.

So what sort of hours sleep are you guys getting ? Not much if the Coca is being chewed !!

The board obviously comes alive at night, which isn't great for us Europeans, but ideal for you night owls over there.

12:37pm

Good afternoon fuckers. ;-)

I sleep whenever I'm tired

Besides Brodia and Qpass, are there any other processors for wireless transaction processors you can recommend?

I have one source, but I've exhausted that for still content, and I'm looking for new sources.

Please email me at webmaster at adultxs dot net with the details. :thumbsup

I've got Asian models coming out my ears. Problem is that the minute you shoot them the images are stolen by every free and paysite on the net. Since none are hosted in the US a copyright suit generally just costs you more then it would ever get you. So you just keep yelling at them and eventually after a month or two the take them down- after plenty of other websites have already downloaded and posted the images. Pain in the ass. I won't use unlicensed or uncompliant content but from what I can see all of the largest Asian sites could not exist without it.

Aaahahaha, so true. :1orglaugh

Although watermarking the domain on there doesn't really help... the lazy thief will just leave it on there or move onto the next site, while the not-so-lazy thief will crop or put another watermark over it... it is still better than nothing.

I watermark everything, normally American webmasters won't steal it if it has a watermark but once an Asian freesite crops it off everyone in the universe thinks it's fair game.

I've been sending all my Japanese traffic to DTI Services
affiliate program - and the Credit card sales and rebills are rocking. All the sites are in Japanese and payment mechanisms/customer service are all geared towards the Japanese market....

just goes to show the foreign traffic you can't convert on your own can make you a bundle when you send it to the right place :)

they are worth a good look and I highly recommend them - chk my ref code

interesting

Or in the words of quiet: "very interesting."

Yes - this whole thread has been interesting. I got slammed on another board a couple of weeks back for suggesting that there was money to be made from Asian surfers so it was very interesting to read some posts from guys who are making money there.

South Asians like Indian, etc? Or SouthEast Asians like Thai and Vietnamese?

Thai and Viet girls are hot too!!!

I'm not so sure if they'll ONLY go for Asians and not white girls.

I don't know about Japan and Korea, but in Hong Kong they're really obsessed about light skin tones and companies selling skin whiting cremes make a fortune there. So naturally I would think that white girls may sell as long as it's done right.

Kinda interesting how everyone in the U.S. wants a tan and everyone in Hong Kong wants to have really light white skin :)

South Asian like Thai, Viet, Flip.

Indian is a completely different Niche.

I have to agree with Frog -> the majority of those south asian girls I see on porn sites are horrible. They look like the kind of girl that is good for a quick fuck and maybe not even that.

And (this is the rant part of my post) for the love of god (this section is also directed at no one so don't take offesne) the words "sushi" and "oriental" should NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER be used in a tour for an Asian site. Hell', don't even use that "Asian" font. (end of rant, i had to let out some steam sorry)

Well in Japan, up until recently, tan skin was a sign of low-class. Lots of upper-class women had pale skin or made it pale. The ideal Japanese lady before Meiji was pale skin (as white as possible), long black glossy hair (before tokugawa), and plump.
