Making Money From Porn - Sales Pages

A More Effective Method To Make That Sale.

Before I begin saying much at all here, one very important thing to remember is this:

Have Somewhere Specific For Your Surfer To Go!

This sounds rather obvious, but I see mistakes along this line every day (and was guilty of the same mistake myself when I began and still have many blogs ‘out there’ to show for that).

Too many adult bloggers and pornsite bulders keep on churning out material without thinking of the end result.

For example, many new adult webmasters build scores of blogs (often splogs) in a number of different porn niches. They link them all together. But the only place they have to send the surfer is to the sex site sponsor they have affiliate links for….or to their other blogs/sites.

What’s wrong with this method?

Well, you are giving the surfer too much choice.

Yes, you need to send the surfer to the pornsite through your affiliate link, but will he/she want to go there when you are offering them so much free porn along the way?

It’s a hit or miss affair at the very least. It may even confuse the surfer (does he want ebony, or latina, or big tits, or booty, or gay, or…? You get the general impression).

This is fine if you are making a Hub (I’ll look at that later), but if you are doing this on a niche specific blog, surely your surfer has arrived there because he/she is interested in that niche. Why confuse them?

By all means (if you are building a splog or feeder blog) have some links to your other blogs in the same niche in the sidebar and add a few ‘more porn’ links towards the bottom of your sidebar, but not too many. These latter links are for those surfers who have changed their minds and who you do not want to lose completely.

In my humble opinion, you would be better filling the spaces your sidebars with banners and text links to your niche specific sponsors and with other things to sell.

The other issue with Having Somewhere To Send The Porn Surfer To is to do with Landing Pages/Sales Pages.

If you are churning out new adult blogs daily and linking them all together, even if you are linking only to your other blogs in the same niche (I’ll discuss this in a later article too) for SEO/traffic purposes, you are sending the surfer around in a ‘circle jerk’ and you are still giving them too much free porn.

When you are building hundreds of ’splogs’ with this method, not only are you only offering the surfer something he/she has probably seen many times before, but you are cutting your chances for a sale.

Much better to have Somewhere Specific To Entice The Porn Surfer.

By all means build those splogs for traffic (and maybe even backlinks), but you need to have somewhere more than the porn site to send those surfers.

Landing Pages/Sales Pages:

In mainstream terms, these are usually called landing pages, but I’ll call them sales pages, as that is what they are all about (for me, anyway).

You will usually need access to adult hosting for this, or you may be able to set up a Squidoo lens or similar free hosting which allows adult (I go with my own hosting for this).

Build some Sales Pages. They can be one page or more (one is often best for this). Build a page or more for each of your sponsors, with good, keyword relevant but not spammy) sales text, a couple of pictures and a banner or two and send links from your splogs and your good blogs to these.

If, like me, you have trouble with css, there are many free templates you can find for this, or you can download a free program like NVU to make your own (even I can master this).

This is one of my early attempts at a sales page. Big Tits Curvy Asses Preview (hardcore by the way, so don’t look if you are easily offended). I have improved a little since then (slowly…). The page probably has far too many outgoing links to rank well with ‘big G’ (around 60, although most are ‘nofollowed’), but this is a sales page I can link to from the sidebar of every blog I make about Big Tits, because it is relevant (of course, I will only link to that page on individual posts if I am writing about that particular sponsor).

The page is also pretty garish. I don’t care. This is not about making a work of art, it’s about catching the surfer’s attention. The only ‘free porn’ on that page is in the pictures (and, I guess, the descriptions…). All links go to the sponsor tours, not to fhgs. Probably less pictures would have been better, but hey, it was almost my first attempt

If you are making a blog post about a particular sponsor, link to your sales page in the text. Not only will that be more ‘SE friendly’ than just sticking in an affiliate link, it will also give you a much better chance to market your porn than simply in a blog post.

Of course, you could instead build sales pages on your blog and if you have a good (ie; handwritten, good content) blog, that would be a pretty good way to do things. The only drawbacks with this method I can see are that (a) if you are using Wordpress, too many pages (along with blog posts) will eventually make your blog a bit heavy to load (especially as WP insists on making a new post every time you do an edit), (b) you may not (for various reasons…) want to link from one good blog to another this way, and (c) the template you are using may be too restrictive to make your sales page stand out.

Once you get to know your sponsors and their sites, it will be quite easy to come up with the relevant text for your sales pages. It could even cut down on the number of posts you have to make to your handwritten blogs (after all, how many times can you find different words for the same piece of ’sex action’?).

Anyway, that’s enough for this post and I have several more subjects to talk about in my how to make money from porn updates.

But I hope that has given you some ideas on How To Make That Porn Sale.
