Making Money From Porn - Free Sites
Another Excellent Long Term Way To Sell Sex Site Sign Ups.
Many adult webmasters will tell you to ‘choose a niche to market that you like and know something about’ and this can be good advice. However, things do not always work out this way.
I recently found myself in the situation where some of my ’splogs’ had produced remarkably good sales (considering they are splogs) for a niche I know very little about. The niche in question is very good, and has a very loyal following, but even if I researched it via forums, blogs, sponsors, etc, for months on end (which is to be recommended), I probably never could get into the mindset (or the gender) to make constant blog posts about it.
But that niche is making porn site sales for me, and I figure it would make me a lot more money if I promoted it more effectively…
I could certainly Make some TGP2s, but there is another, very effective, way I have noticed which works well with this particular porn niche. And that is Building Freesites.
What Are Freesites?
If you look at my Porn Marketing Terms post, you will see that a Freesite consists of an index (warning) page (with some ‘adults only’ text), a page which introduces your galleries and has links to each one, and (usually) two gallery pages. Each gallery page will have thumbnails which link to around 12 (or more) full size images which are not on html.
Although the term ‘Freesite’ contains the word ‘free’ (and will contain a fairly large number of free porn pictures or videos), the basic premise behind the Freesite is to convince the porn surfer to go to your sponsor long before he/she opens those pictures or looks at the video clips.
This is why you will find (softcore) sponsor banners and ‘click here for free porn pictures’ type links above the fold on the warning page long before you find the link to the actual gallery pages.
A similarity between Freesites and TGP2s is the need for (and SEO value of) good, keyword rich and enticing text.
So the Free Site, like the TGP2, can remain in the search engines for a long time and is a long term measure for making money from porn.
There are many link lists where you can (and should) submit your Freesites. However, although I have built a couple of these, I have not submitted them, because, basically, the rules are very strict and can be quite complex.
In fact, building and submitting Free Sites is not (yet) something I have any real experience in.
But all is not lost!
Excellent Information On Building And Submitting Free Sites:
I have found an excellent article on How To Build Adult Freesites which goes into great detail about how to build a Freesite and make it acceptable to most major link lists. There is also a follow up article on How To Submit Your Freesite which takes you through the important steps and gives you a list of Free Site Directories to submit to.
These articles are so good, I will be following their instructions myself and, hopefully be able to post the results here (eventually….all this hard work takes time
).
I found the posts about Building And Submitting Free Sites on another adult webmaster blog. This one is called XXX Webmaster Help And Information. It is written by an adult webmaster who has quite a few years experience in making money from porn and contains loads of good information and links. I guess it might be kicking myself in the teeth to post his link here, but hey, it’s good stuff, and he appears to work in different niches than me (usually), so why not?
What I will say is, you may come across many people saying that Free Sites are finished as a way for making money from porn. Personally, I don’t believe it. I think there are certain types of site building that work for some adult webmasters (and some niches) where others do not.
We will soon see anyway…
That’s all I have to say for now about Making Money with Free Sites. This has been another post in my series about making money from porn - updates, and there are more coming soon
