I said what you want cotdamn tube monster thread and it said bout two fiddy

james_clickmemedia 04-21-2009 12:02 PM

Tube produce clicks, give away more (longer clips) = more clicks.
If you sell clicks then $$ go up.
If you sell memberships then $$$ go down..

However if that is the only traffic available then one has to learn to adapt or die.

Early on I bet $2 this thread would hit 5K. Guess I'm gonna lose this one...

Zorgman 04-21-2009 09:29 PM

Here is my tips.

1. Get a tube script
2. Load it up with 50,000 sponsors approved clips
3. Let the search engines find it
4. SE traffic = gold - hence signups
5. No bandwidth costs as all videos are sponsors hosted

Im my views anyone that has to use full length movies to get sales has no advertising skill and taking the easy way out. I pitty you because this industry was built on advertising skills - you clearly have no skill choker.

Says the guy who makes a script.

I think you are full of shit too. Where's one of your sites that is under a great keyword first page?

And to think I was recomending your script to people, no more. LOL. Yeah I have no skill. So Tevs Tube script owner is saying officially that if you use full length videos you have no skill right? Great way to market your script. OMFG So lets put the word out that Tevs should only be used for sponsor hosted flvs, do not buy it for long movies, says the owner of the script.

personally i think you should just sell traffic to user submitted tube sites (what idiots call illegal tube sites) and be done with it.

Your getting grief for selling to "legal tube" sites with longer videos anyway, why waste money policing th tube site at all.

Wait till these fuckers see what I'm coming out with very soon. I've talked to a lot of very big program owners and they are all saying the same thing, sales are down 5% to 10% every quarter. They are all expanding into different areas including tubes while these haters sit around watching the world go by them. Notice how you dont see many big program owners posting on GFY anymore? Big sponsors are doing things they never thought they would have to do two years ago but they see the future and are adopting while the haters spend al lday on GFY bitching about how bad things are and looking for scapegoats for their failing busineses

This post was so stupid, on so many levels, that I'm amazed you didn't pass out from having to type all those words.

FWIW, your script is a total piece of shit, and I know this because I bought a copy a long time ago.

I had to throw that whole site away and start over again with Konrad's script.

Zorgman 04-22-2009 09:24 PM

Why did you buy TEVS if you say it's a "toal piece of shit". All the functions are on the bigdotmedia.com website, including a demo site to play with before you buy. Are you dumb or something? Everyone can see this before buying a license or are you one of those guys that - READY - SHOOT - AIM ?

TEVS is not for everyone and there are many good tube scripts on the market now. Including Konrad's tube script which it's awesome.

Jack Sparrow 04-23-2009 03:51 AM

Woow, if i wasnt to busy with the site in my signature (a tube both sponsors and surfers and webmasters like, and IS making EVERYBODY happy making money), i would read it all right now.

So many different opinions..

zorgman if you are a coder of any calibre you know that demo sites can't tell you what stress levels your code could handle.

Put it on a different server, and send a million hits to it at the same time, and all of a sudden a script that looks good in the demo is "total piece of shit"

Perfect, blame the customer when he doesn't like your product.

I guess your stupid fucking posts in this thread are my fault too?

Zorgman 04-23-2009 08:28 AM

Quoted from my website on the TEVS page

7Q. Can TEVS handle large traffic sites?
7A: From our tests, anything up to 100k a day is fine on a dedicated server (webair only tester). If you have a bigger traffic site than 100k, we suggest cutting code out for faster results. e.g; stats logs, tgp page, extra queries to speed up load times. Contact us if you have any questions regarding traffic loads.


Now sending a million hits a day is over our test, so might have been best to ask me before purchasing a license. That's just common sence.

Why on earth would you send 1 million hits a day to an out of the box product - that's just stupid.

Im not blaming anyone, but you have to use some brain power people. Come on!

Are you avoiding my question? Should we put the word out that people who use your script with full length videos are idiots and have no skills just like you posted in this thread? Yes or no Zorgman? Can't you answer a simple question, or are you too busy trying to get your foot out of your mouth?

Duuh. Funny how everyone is bashing me cause i make a thread about how tubes make money and i sell tube traffic. Of course i make posts that better my own interests who the fuck doesnt? I don't see any cam site owners making posts saying ah man web cam sales are down so fucking bad but we are gonna do 75$ per signup for the next two weeks. No they say "Wow web cam sales are rocking and rolling guys. To celebrate we are giving out 75$ pps for a limited time only".

People who post here WITHOUT the purpose of furthering thier business need to get a life, get off this board and make some sites. Last time I checked this was a Adult Webmaster Board where people come together to do business.

I buy traffic from you. A decent bit. Your argument is 100% flawed.

If somebody downloads a CD from a torrent site, are they going to go to iTunes and pay to download the same CD they just got for free?

Hell, no!

Also, you have to factor in - what are people doing when they watch porn? They are jerking off. The more content you give out for free, the higher the chance they will blow a load and not pull out their credit card.

The quickest and most effective path to a sale, is less time on the middle-man's site.

Since i made this post i have been approached by over 10 big sponsors telling me all the same thing, yes we have found the exact same results but were afraid to tell anyone for fear of getting slammed like you are but here is a password download all our videos and get them online as fast as you can. Like I originally posted in this thread the reasons surfers still do it is the only theories I could come up with. Not saying the ratios of the ones that do this are high, but it's decent enough to make a tube site profitable.

Yeah, but 99% of tubes don't even link the paysite from the videos they are using, the only benefit they get is from watermark traffic.

So you have watermark traffic vs. direct link from banners of your competitors.

The people whoreing out their content will be the losers in the long run.

Well then that's content theft/copyright infringement and is a totally different thing than what Choker is talking about here.

THIS is the main reason these discussions are so frustrating, because most of the time the people having the discussion are talking about two totally different things, and can't figure out why the other guy "just doesn't get it".

Free porn is free porn. It is the proliferation of free porn that is training surfers that there is never a need to pay for content. Free tube sites which are legal, free tube sites which are "illegal" - free tube sites that link back to a sponsor - free tube sites that do not - free tube sites that mask the watermark - free tube sites that leave the watermark... they are ALL FREE FUCKING PORN SITES THAT ARE REDUCING THE NEED FOR SURFERS TO PAY FOR PORN!

And before the same absurd comparisons are tossed about fro the millionth time - NO, free porn tubes are NOT the same as MGPs, or TGPs or torrents, etc - they are much MUCH more harmful by far, as they are not teaser clips designed to entice a sale, and they are much easier to access than torrents for the average surfer, so I will continue to say, tube sites suck shit. Some tube sites you might ask? No, ALL TUBE SITES SUCK SHIT!

That is all...

Yes, I unfortunately agree with you. Many of the players in this biz have allowed this self-destructive marketing model to go too far, and it is now looking less and less likely that there is any way to stop the car before it reaches the edge of the cliff.

The big fish are gambling that they can outrun the small fish in this game, by destroying the market, in hopes that once the herd is thinned out they will be able to get back into the game with less competition.

Without a crystal ball it is impossible to know if there is any reality to this plan, or if they are simply blowing up the ENTIRE business, while killing off their own futures in the process.

The one thing that seems clear however, is that the largest players are causing the most harm, while the smaller guys THINK they have to play the same game to stay alive.

I do not believe this is true. If you want to chase cars as they fly over the cliff and into the abyss, then more power to you!

The idea that tube site X gets the most traffic because they give away more free content than tube site Y is somehow a business model worth emulating is a short-lived endeavor.

The porn world is a bubble, and it is quite tiny in comparison to mainstream. Advertising revenue based upon traffic to the largest tube sites is still limited to porn-related advertisers. You can never achieve so much traffic from porn that Nike or Ford will begin paying your hosting bills, so the small fish that large tubes are killing off, are the very same content producers and advertisers that the big fish actually require, if this business model was to actually continue - which is why it will not. It is only dog-eat-dog until you run out of dogs.

Doctor Who?

Legal tubes are fine. I own 2 of them, it is merely the evolution of a TGP. Most of the big tubes, with the big traffic, don't give a fack about copyright. The ones that do give a fuck about copyright get far less traffic.

That is just the facts.

Oh yes, that's the bottom line.

Sure, let him. But if you want quality without worries, that's going to cost you.

Vjo 04-24-2009 06:49 PM

The REAL way they make money...

is noone ever sees a full 20 min video

it buffers for an hour if they do.

The impression they will see a full video brings them there, the realization that they are in another circle jerk along with buffering from hell, makes them buy..

I have 1600 Mbits/sec or 200Kbytes/sec connection. I 've never see anything but buffering at redtube or any big tube.

Just something to consider. Good thread.

But you don't differentiate when making your bitch threads.

You're pissed that people give out full length vids also, even though that's 100% legal and ethical and whatever-else-ical.

So what is it that you're pissed at tubes for? Using your content without permission which you feel devalues the product you're selling?
OR

Giving away lots of full length vids and therefore, in your mind, taking away the surfer's reason to buy?

You lump these all together when you bitch about tubes, so trying to talk to you (and others who share your views) is like trying to nail jello to a wall.

Well that's easy enough to check. Click a redtube vid. If you can stream that at a decent rate to jack off to, then your a hornier surfer than me.

I'm not saying anyone is right or wrong. Just that there is alot of buffering on most tubes so in reality does it matter how big the vid is. If your buffering all the time and, most tubes are, than "that is how tubes make money".

Most tubes are todays cjs with a pretty facade. I'm not really that impressed. The scripts all look the same too.

Just business as usual out there from what I see.

pamon 04-24-2009 11:10 PM

i'm backing zorgman here... he builds one of the better tube scripts with only Konrad's being probably tied or slightly better. Tube's are split into illegal ones with stolen content and legit ones with sponsored videos. They'll both make $$ and then it'll move onto another form of visual display.

Most scripts look the same for the most part IMHO.

Vjo 04-24-2009 11:27 PM

If a guy could find a good way to import raw fhg's into an html page you could easily build a site that would blow a scripts socks off. I don't care about all the auto updating and bells and whistles on a script. Just build any site that doesn't look like a script and you have a surfers attention. The key is how do you build one. :) It can be done.

Not saying the ratios of the ones that do this are high, but it's decent enough to make a tube site profitable.

Please send them over to me, im sure my hq traffic on oneclicktube.com will be liked by them!

I have 1600 Mbits/sec or 200Kbytes/sec connection. I 've never see anything but buffering at redtube or any big tube.

Just something to consider. Good thread.

Good point, i have found that buffering occurs much more when you have more programs running on your computer no matter what the download speed is. Can any techies confirm this? I have tested this with like 5 different computers each running x amount of processes all on the same download speed and sure enough, computers that were running less processes didnt buffer as much.

the applications cycle getting processor time, they only do things when they have the processor (brains). So the more applications you have the less frequently the browser downloading get the processor. You can change the frequency by changing the priority of the application that is running, but most every day users will not know how to do that.
