So regarding the UK age verification laws soon to be coming into effect. It is confusing and lots of site owners are unsure what to do.

I had this idea this morning that I think could work really well.

Why doesn't someone create a website that was like a porn portal. All they do is create the site and offer a life time membership to it. So to join this site you would have to go through the process of verifying your age and might have to pay a small fee for that. When you have had your age verified and have joined the site you won't have to verify your age again. Because in the member section of this site are links to lots of other sites that you can join without verifying your age. So there are tours to these sites that are not SFW. Just like our normal tours. There will be a join link to join any of the sites. There can be video previews and samples.

So the idea is that this new site someone creates is just set up to verify someone's age and then that person can join and is a member for life. He - or she! - can then view other websites with adult images and previews that can't be shown to unverified people. They can simply join a site of their liking the usual way through CCBILL, Epoch, ect...

And the person who owns the site can charge anyone who wants to list their site there a fee. Either a monthly fee or yearly fee or a one-off fee.

Let's say someone creates such a site. I would be happy to pay a fee to have my sites listed on it. On the join pages of my sites I would just have some text explaining about age verification (for UK surfers) and tell them to join the site and get age verified and then they can see adult previews for my sites and join whenever they like. They would be able
to see the updates page for one of my sites like Only Looking:

https://www.onlylooking.com/updates/

Soon I will have to remove that updates page for UK viewers but I can still keep it up on the net and update it. It's just that I'll have to hide it from UK surfers.

I think it's a great idea but unfortunately not something I could create for various reasons.

For the UK surfer who wants to join porn sites it's a very attractive idea because all he has to do is verify his age once and then he can join any of the sites listed on this site and see adult previews.

The owner of the site would have no problem getting thousands of websites to pay to get listed on such a site.

So on the non-member section of the site there could be a big list of sites that you can join without age verification once you had joined this site. You just
go through the age verification once and then you can join lots of other sites that are listed on the non-member page of this new site.

Something like this might exist but not in such a simple way as my idea. It's so easy for everyone to understand.

So - who's going to make a lot of money and create this site!

You think about it as surfers go over their decision to join a website for weeks, doing their due diligence, etc. But in reality, its mostly horny surfers who join...they see a video they like, get horny, want to jerk off and quickly pay to see the whole video. If it takes too long, they just give up on it and jerk off anyway, customer lost.

Its all about catching them while they have no blood in their brain.

There some truth in what you say but there are thousands of people who join websites on a regular basis so this would appeal to them. Anyone who just wants to join a site instantly because he's horny might not bother if there is lots of age verification to go through. So we can't do anything about that surfer. But he's also someone who most likely joins websites on a regular basis so the new site I'm suggesting should have some appeal to him as well.

If you're a paysite owner, you should have had AV in place for a month or so now as per the regs. Tube sites are in a different tier so have until later this month to comply.

What you're describing isn't a bad idea but its pretty much the same as any members area upsell which most paysites have had for years.

Thanks but I think it's so much different to an upsale. This is all about verifying someone's age and then them not having to verify it again to join lots of other sites.
Also age verification doesn't come into effect in the UK until July 25th as far as I know.
