Personally... I don't find the design appealing and I don't find the girls on it attractive... but I could say the same about some of our own sites / girls. In the end, you're right. If it makes $$ then it can't be all bad.

This topic has me wondering about Mike's old school amateur sites.

Mike-- do you still have some sites like the old ones you have had like newbourbon, etc.

Where you had like medium size pics all fully clothed basically with captions uderneath with teasing messages. "I bet you want to see what I have on under this don't you?" Just like 5 or 6 down a page and never any nudity.

Curious--how did that type set up convert for you? I am guessing quite well :)

I guarantee you it converted like a mother. But as Ive said before ...the whole design thing is evolving. Surfers are smarter these days!

This was the only way we built sites for years.... They used to be magical. Due to market conditions - over saturation and such we have had to change our approach.

Ugly tours sell. Ugly girls do not. :D

The people at AmateurWeb have it easy since they probably never had to invest money in content, they can just have it "submited" to them!! HAHA Maybe the consumption junction guys can buy the site!

That whole "submit your images" thing just scares me. So much for 2257 I guess

Definately opening yourself up to some kind of exposure by doing that.

Not to mention lawsuits. Look at the one Brad Shaw just got served with.

[Kacy]

I just read up on Brad's issue and that really sucks. You think you have yourself covered and then....

This brought up alot issues for us to think about since we are starting to launch certifiedcontent.com, a content brokerage site. What all legalities we need to make sure and cover ourselves. That thread about Brad's law suits raised alot of questions and really got us thinking about the direction we want to go.

What do you do when the place you bought a license from is gone?
Hmmm.

Well, I am off to pay some attorney fees LOL :)

As far as being appealing to the eye...it's nothing to write home about.
As far as being potentially profitable...it's incredible! There is no leakage!
