			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Had a few emails the last few weeks asking if there was any money in mobile porn. Well I was a little late getting into the mobile market but I have to say it has been quite profitable with conversion ratios being much higher than normal sites with some sites being as high as 1 in 35. All sites have mobile traffic its just a matter of redirecting it to your sponsor of mobile page.</p>
<p>I prefer to redirect to my mobile page for the domain for example rather than redirecting direct to a sponsor I send it to http://mobile.domain.com or http://domain.com/mobile I think its safer for sites with good google listing&#8217;s there are many ways to redirect traffic including htaccess, php and java. I prefer htaccess as I find it easier to control.</p>
<p>When building a mobile sites there are quite a few good sites that you can test how the site will look and if it fits into the mobile guidelines like this one <a href="http://mobiready.com">Mobi Ready</a> it has device emulators so you can see what your site will look like on different phones.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As a company we shoot most of our own material these days and are always on  the look out for new fresh faces whether they be guys or girls. I just wanted to  do a quick post today to tell you about some of the horror stories I have been  reading and hearing about with regards to the scam porn agencies that are out  there. I&#8217;ve heard from some guys who have paid upwards of three thousand pounds  to join the agencies with a promise of work. Here is my advice to you do not pay  to join one of these agencies if they are reputable they will offer you work if  they think you are good enough without a upfront payment. They will give you  false promises and unbelievable amounts of what you will be paid from £1000 &#8211;  £4000 a day which is totally ridiculous for a new comer to the business  especially a guy working to straight levels.</p>
<p>The sad fact is there is not much work around for new guys in the industry  and it is very hard to get established. One of the reasons is there are not as  many producers in the UK shooting as there was a couple of years ago due to the  recession and other factors affecting the adult industry. We get many guys  contacting us offering to work for us for as low as free we have even had a few  contact us offering to pay us.  We don&#8217;t usually take up these offers due to the  fact that we just do not know how the guy will perform and if he will get stage  fright and not be able to perform. Which is pretty sad as some of these guys  could turn out to be adult stars in the making and they just don&#8217;t get a chance.</p>
<p>We have a new project coming up in the New Year which will be open to a  select few guys in the UK who will be able to take part in some of our adult  productions and earn from them as well. So watch this space as we will be giving  you more details shortly.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is quite a few tube scripts on the market mostly budget but some premium. Today we are going to look at budget scripts as we have used a couple of different ones to build some of our tube sites. For anyone who has been living under a rock for the last few years a tube site is a video upload/posting site. You get the big ones that use content that doesnt belong to them but we are just going to concentrate on the ones where you can upload sponsor content to and use sponsor galleries.</p>
<p>The first one we are looking at is Tevs which is run by <a href="http://www.bigdotmedia.com">Big Dot Media</a> I must say this is probally my favourite budget script one of the reasons is the ease of use from setting up to running its just so simple. I have three sites running it at the moment <a href="http://britishhardcoresex.com">British Hardcore Sex</a>, <a href="http://britishfetishclips.com">British Fetish Clips</a> and <a href="http://simplybritishporn.com">Simply British Porn</a> all these more or less run on auto piliot and give some nice sales daily. Okay so what are my favourite features:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Templates</strong> with a little imagination you can make these templates look exactly how you like and add in extra pages also its very easy to make the templates work with trade scripts.</li>
<li><strong>Sponsors </strong>its so easy to add in different sponsors and link them to the relevant banners and you can add a nice selection of sizes.</li>
<li><strong>Videos</strong> it has a few different options for importing videos from a mass import to just adding a single video. You can also spider FHGs and make video&#8217;s from them which is a nice simple option.</li>
</ul>
<p>The second one we are looking at it the new script from <a href="http://www.jmbsoft.com/">JMB</a> which is TubeX again a nice cheap script to kick of a tube site. We use it here at <a href="http://britishpornclips.com">British Porn Clips</a>. This is a nice easy script but as we have only just started using it i guess I&#8217;m not quite as familar with it as Tevs so at the moment seems a little harder to get my head round but still a good script. It has some nice templates which you can easily edit but I dont think they are as versitle as Tevs. One place where I think TubeX beats Tevs is the importing of videos it is much easier and a lot quicker.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Templates</strong> these seem a little harder to configure than tevs but Im still getting to grips with them at the moment so over the next week or two may change my opinion on this.</li>
<li><strong>Sponsors </strong>there is no database as I can find to import straight from sponsors you ahve to add your own but it depends how important this feature is to you as I dont use it.</li>
<li><strong>Videos</strong> this is real quick for adding in videos with lots of different fields.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Okay a few people have been asking me about TGP&#8217;s and if they are still worth  submitting too. Hear are my thoughts a lot of webmaster&#8217;s will tell you they are  not worth the effort I have to disagree. As a company we have been submitting at  least three galleries a day which consist of one TGP (which means it is made up  of pictures) and two MGP (which means its made up of movie&#8217;s. We have been doing  that five days of the week for almost 15 years so as you can imagine we have  quite a few galleries out there.</p>
<p>Well why do I think its still worth it. To start with you should never ever  turn your nose up at any free traffic I know most people think of this as  rubbish traffic that doesn&#8217;t convert but that is just not true okay it may  convert in higher numbers than for instance search engine traffic but it still  does convert. Here are a few tips on how to make the traffic work for you and  how to maximise on it, plus a great program to automate your submission process.</p>
<p><strong>How to make the traffic work for you.</strong></p>
<p>Here is a real simple tip. When you add your galleries to your server make  sure they are named very different for example. Don&#8217;t call them  xxx.com/gallery1/ call them xxx.com/lesbiangirlsnude1 if you do call them  gallery1, gallery2 etc the surfer will scroll all the way through your galleries  but if you use lesbiangirlsnude1 but then call your next gallery  lesbiansnudetoday you will have got that surfer to send him where ever you want  as long as you have htaccess installed. You can send him to the top level of  your domain where you can use the surfer to feed your trades/toplists etc.</p>
<p><strong>How to maximise on it</strong></p>
<p>Most MGP and TGP insist on having their buttons at the top and you usually  add three, but rather than adding three for the TGP or MGP add only two and use  the other spot for your own site. Increase back links and pr for your site.</p>
<p><strong>Submission Program</strong></p>
<p>Chameleon Submitter has to be one of the best programs on the net and there  auto confirmer is invaluable. I have one person who works for me submitting TGP/MGP  and it take them round about 90mins from start to finish using these programs.</p>
<p>Using the above methods you will bring in nice steady traffic and as long as  its filtered correctly can make you decent money.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you are trying to make money with articles, the beauty of it is that you don’t really need previous career related experience and that you can learn the ropes as you go. That being said, there are some skills that you will need to teach yourself or pick up along the way to make your sites successful. You can’t go in not knowing anything, not learning anything, and still expect to make a good income (or any income at all).</p>
<p>First, you will need to know how to pick out the correct articles to make your sites successful. There are many types of content, from free content to high dollar content, and each comes with its own advantages and disadvantages (although high dollar content is more likely to give you a successful site in the end).</p>
<p>Second, you will need to know how to choose keywords that can help you get a good amount of traffic, without being too competitive to get on the first or second page. If you choose highly competitive keywords that are used by large, mammoth website, you are likely to never get up to those much needed first two pages.</p>
<p>Third, you will need to know how to optimize your websites for various search engines. Search engine optimization skills will allow you to get high rankings for your chosen niche keywords, which will help to get visitors and make profit.</p>
<p>Fourth, if you opt for a large website that you will focus most of your internet marketing career on, you will also need to know how to market your website to your intended audience through paid banner ads and text links. If you prefer very small 2-5 page niche sites, then promoting all of them this way will not be cost effective and will eat up more profits than it is worth.</p>
<p>If you can capture some of these skills and attack them aggressively during your first few small websites or the first few months of a larger website, then you will eventually become an expert.  Since you can learn the ropes first hand on your own, the only thing that you will need to do before you begin your new career is to read up on how to get started (maybe purchase an internet marketing e-book or two) and make sure that you have the funds available to start a small site.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Where you place your affiliate links on your website can really make a difference on how many clicks you end up getting and, since every click means a potential sale, this is an important aspect of internet marketing.</p>
<p>Research has shown that the most effective affiliate links are text links. Yes, plain text links. Not big flashy banner ads like most affiliate website are filled to the brim with. What happens is, you write a great article (or have one created) about the product or something related to the product and stick the link into your text. This allows interested readers to see the link as they are reading and click on it.</p>
<p>Of course, your article and your link have to work effectively together to make this happen. A bad article and an unrelated link to an unknown product are not likely to make the profits roll in.</p>
<p>So the next time you are out to choose an affiliate link, try placing a relevant link in a great article that is well optimized for search engines and see how it works out for you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Picking a good web hosting company is important to keeping your website open and your costs down. There are many to choose from, as well as different pricing plans to look over. Depending on the amount of sites that you intend on building, you may want to consider a larger web space in the long run.</p>
<p>You should start with the smallest web space that you can get to test the waters, just incase niche website Internet marketing does not work out for you. You may want to add on later, so make sure that your provider offers that option.</p>
<p>You will want to choose a provider that has a reliable service. If your site is down or takes to long to open up when visitors are trying to get in, it may lead them to click out of your site and move on to the next one. They will also more than likely not visit in the future since they will remember their bad experience. For this reason, it is probably best to stick with a well known company who you can check reliable references on. There are many small hosting providers that offer space for as low as $.50 to $1 per month, however, you never know what you will be getting and many of them want you to pay for at least a years worth in advance.</p>
<p>You will also want one that has the most affordable hosting. If you can create your own small site or have one made for you, then you will probably be able to find space for as low as $3 to $4 per month. However, if you need to choose a company that offers a What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) website builder, then you will probably end up paying $10 to $15 per month for the smallest amount of space. But if this is the only way that you can build a site, then it is necessary.</p>
<p>Some web hosting providers may also offer a deal on a yearly URL or other products when you make a web hosting purchase.</p>
<p>Ultimately, whatever web hosting provider you choose will depend on your individual needs and what you can afford. Hopefully you will be able to snap up a well known provider at a low price who will allow you to upgrade your service as needed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Learn to use search engine optimization techniques when writing your articles. If hiring a writer to write articles for you, you can choose one who already knows about SEO or you can supply them with a list of keywords and let them know where they should be placed and how many times they should be repeated throughout the article. Optimizing your articles for search engines will help them rank higher when someone searches for a keyword relating to your subject, which means that you will receive more visitors because more people will actually see your URL. It is a fact that most visitors don’t look past the first search engine result page and by the third search engine results page there is practically no audience left for you to promote to. What this means for those on the third or high page is no traffic. This is why it is very important for you to make sure that your articles are prepared in a way that will eventually get them to that first or second search engine results page.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Online affiliate marketing is one of the most effective, cheapest and fastest ways to promote merchandise. With millions of people getting access to the Internet everyday, there’s a great chance for a merchant to introduce his products and services to a wider market, thereby, maximizing his revenue.</p>
<p>Likewise, affiliate marketing is an excellent way to generate full-time income for a home-based affiliate marketer. For someone who is jaded of going through a grueling eight-hour work routine, affiliate marketing offers a great opportunity to earn big without wearing himself out—physically, mentally and emotionally.</p>
<p>In affiliate marketing, both parties are benefited since as the merchant earns from each item sold, the marketer likewise earns a commission.</p>
<p>If you are interested in affiliate marketing but are finding it hard to look for affiliate programs, affiliates or merchants, you can start by checking sites of various affiliate networks. Many affiliate programs in the Internet are being offered through an affiliate program network, which acts as a link between the merchants and individual affiliates.</p>
<p>Among the most popular is LinkShare, it is through it that merchants and affiliates meet. LinkShare maintains and manages affiliate marketing programs for a great number of merchants with various kinds of businesses, products and services. It also has over 6,000 affiliate site members in its network. It gains profit from the set-up fees, monthly account maintenance fees and commissions.</p>
<p>Joining networks like LinkShare can be of great help in establishing your online marketing business. Whether you are a merchant or an affiliate marketer, you need to research well on your partners in order to choose the best for you.</p>
<p>LinkShare provides the facility of acquiring access to a large network of advertisers (merchants) who offer their affiliate programs to publishers (affiliates) who are willing to promote their products. In the same manner, it gives the merchants access to a large network of affiliates who are searching for affiliate marketing opportunities.</p>
<p>LinkShare is especially beneficial for an affiliate in choosing his partners since he can find his options all in one location. It would be easier for him to compare products, commission rates and other benefits given by the merchant. The merchant usually just waits for interested affiliates to sign up in his affiliate marketing program but being in the network increases his chance to promote his products to a larger market, thus, maximizing his potential to gain huge profit.</p>
<p>To help you decide whether to use large affiliate networks such as LinkShare or not, let us try to look deeper into its positive and negative sides. The primary advantage of LinkShare to you as an affiliate is convenience.</p>
<p>As earlier mentioned, you find different pieces of information about your choices simultaneously all in a single location, so you save time and effort looking for affiliate programs or merchants.</p>
<p>It’s also easier to track your business partner’s performance through monthly reports and statements, as well as its sales and commission rates, so you know whether the affiliate program is still worth continuing. If you have signed up for several affiliate programs, you can check all your statistics for each merchandiser you are affiliated with by logging in just once.</p>
<p>LinkShare helps you manage and maintain all records of your visitors’ click-throughs and sales transaction. It takes care of your commissions and gives it to you monthly in lump sum. Especially when you have more than one merchant partner, it would be easier for you to manage your accounts and track your earnings when you are affiliated through a marketing program network.<br />
Furthermore, every information you get is accurate and secured, so you are protected from all the risk you might encounter. Above all, you can enjoy LinkShare’s benefits for free. You just have to go to their site and register your website. Instantly, you get access to a great variety of affiliate programs available for you.</p>
<p>So, what’s on the negative side? Although, it is indeed helpful to join affiliate marketing networks such as LinkShare, there are some disadvantages, too.</p>
<p>For one, merchants offer lower commissions to affiliates who partner with them through the third party program network. This because they still have to pay for the use of service and the technology provided by LinkShare.</p>
<p>Direct partnership with the merchant cuts costs of advertising through the network and so the affiliate has bigger potential to earn more. Moreover, it is possible that your payment may be delayed for a month or more since program networks would pay you only after the advertiser or the merchant has paid them.</p>
<p>Do you need to use LinkShare or other networks? It depends, actually. You can opt for direct partnership with the merchant, but this choice is not applicable all the time. There are a lot of merchandisers who offer their affiliate program only through affiliate program networks and thus, you have no choice other than joining the network to get into the affiliate marketing program.</p>
<p>So you are faced with “take it or leave it” situation. But LinkShare and other program networks are not that disadvantageous. After all, whether you join it or not, earning big would depend more on your promotional strategies and persistence.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Affiliate marketing happens to be a way of promotion that you use the internet in order to advertise other businesses, as well as, your own business. You will get commission for a base amount for each time that you successfully advertise to another.</p>
<p>You will find that this is a form of revenue much like commission. You will be able to get a small profit for every time you get a customer interested in the goods and then make a sale for the goods. You will find that this is one of the most cost-effective ways to advertise. Basically, you will pay practically nothing for simple advertising and promotion. You will find that the trend to use this type of marketing has become more popular since the late 1990’s. You will want to keep in mind that there are many major companies and corporations that use affiliate marketing.</p>
<p>There are three ways that you will be able to compensate. First, you’ll find that there is CPC or cost per click. This is where you will pay someone for every time a potential client clicks on the product. You will find that this is one of the most fraud versions. You’ll also find that CPC is really no longer used. You’ll also find that CPA or cost per action is one of the better ways to use affiliated marketing. This is where you pay someone for something. Perhaps you want to get more members. Every time that some one registers at the site you will have to pay for it. Then there is cost per sale, which is the most common and profitable. You will find that there has to be a sale in order for the payment to be collected.</p>
