How exactly can you assume a tube is going to be great if you haven't figured out the traffic part of the deal?
Since you won't be taking user submits, and are focusing on a niche that only a limited few can afford to be in, which is pretty highly visible already on other tubes, how will you set yourself apart?

Happy New Year!
To answer your questions (if you want to call what I'm about to say an "answer" LOL):
1. Traffic IS the most important thing. There are only a few ways to get it (as you well know) so I intend to do a (limited) combination of traffic generation. A fair amount should come from SEO. The rest will come from Bookmarkers, traffic/link trades and a limited amount of traffic buys. I don't have the buget (or the inclination) to drop $100,000 on traffic to 'jump start' a project like this but can throw several thousand in targeted traffic at the new tube for six months to see if anything 'sticks'.
2. Design. Presentation is everything (well, a lot) and the problem I have with most tubes is the 'overwhelm' factor. All those (usually small) thumbs! That's why I liked the old RedTube (only 20 vids per Homepage) and YouJizz (BIG thumbs). So a combo of that with an eye towards 'less is more/quality is better'.
Also, the erotic niche sells, and I know that as well as anyone, so I'm sticking with a niche I know well and have had great success promoting for almost 4 years now. So we will see. Maybe I should start a cuckold tube instead. LOL
