Integration of toons/comix

[gonzo]

Bestat...is there a strategy youd suggest to integrate toon content into existing sites that do not currently have any?

[Bestat]

Hey Gonzo :)

Well, I have always likened anime/toon content on sites to the comic section in the newspaper. People read the paper for news, sports or whatever, but most take the time to check out the comics cause it's fun. :) So adding a "toon" section on any type of site will add to it's value, as well as give your members even more fresh content, which as we know helps retention a great deal.

As for intergrating into a site, I would suggest if possible to get toons or comic's that work well with the site theme, such as bondage, gay, straight, gothic, etc. There are toons for almost all the niches :) Then see how well the section does for you, and add as interest grows. Anime and Hentai goes very well with Asian and bondage sites, humorous toons do well on most any type site. Recurring comics are another great way to keep members interest, like any comic book they look forward to the next "edition", so adding a weekly or monthly series is a great incentive for them to hang around. You can find comic series that match most niches as well. And of course you can always commission an exclusive series to match your niche. :)

Great advice!! Thanks!

One other suggestion, try asking your members about adding toons to your site. Not only does it let you know if they are into it, it always makes them feel like they have some say on the content of the site. Another great way to help retention!

Does Exclusive Content have stuff like comic feeds or do you lease or sell comics to add to your sites?

[Bestat]

Yep :) We have over 2 dozen comic feeds, weekly and monthly series. We have straight, gay, lesbian and manga series available. Manga is the Japanese black and white comic style. Simple to use too, just add a link to your members area, and we take care of all the updates, and Oprano members automatically get at least 10% off!

THat wasnt for a cheap pop either...I have several paysite projects about to break beefing up the members areas and I like to offer members lots of things that keep them from cancelling.

Definitely drop me a line, and I will cut you a sweet deal. :)
