PROMOTE THIS SPONSOR in 2011, detailed stats for you inside
 
Some of you may be promoting this program already, if not, I suggest you give them a go. I predict huge things for these guys in 2011.

It is a sponsor I've been pushing since the middle of the year. There are no issues with stolen content, it's an adult virtual world that people have to download first (and then get out their credit card when hooked) :thumbsup

They pay me $75 per sale for those 267 sales below, new affiliates however are on $60 or 60% recurring.

Join here.

Have a profitable new year folks.

How is that being a cocksucker? I'm helping fellow GFY'ers, I'm giving the program some deserved promotion, and in return, will take my cut.

That's how business works, or are you naive enough to believe otherwise? :1orglaugh

Agent 488 12-29-2010 09:57 PM

what kind of traffic?

rogueteens 12-29-2010 10:05 PM

doesnt work for me, i just keep being sent to the surfer tour no matter what i click on the affiliate tour page :(

Click on the Join now, it may give an error, but the page you land on should be the login page, and there's an option there to join:

Agent488 - dating traffic works well. I would imagine if you could get the ads / links up in front of the WoW / SIMS type gaming crowd, you'd make a killing with it.

Mine is mostly general traffic.

I bought some slots on some gaming forums to some success, but few will allow adult banners / programs. One WoW forum owner tried to rip me off and I stopped going that route.

fuzebox 12-29-2010 11:22 PM

I almost forgot about Redlight Center... Been meaning to try em for like a year now.

Forkbeard 12-29-2010 11:39 PM

I'll be honest, I've been holding off on promoting these guys because their avatars strike me as kinda ugly and real old tech -- the wood elves in 1990s EverQuest were hotter. Hell, even the high elves were hotter in a beef-and-cabbage kinda way. I keep hoping somebody will come along to compete with them that has better-looking more modern avatars.

But if it converts, meh, maybe I should get off my technological high horse.

Agent 488 12-29-2010 11:47 PM

is there any other of these virtual sex sites as well out there? ref code is ok ; )

You have to put that to one side. The "average" surfer, not gamer, will think it's very good. They can virtually fuck someone they're never likely to meet, chat to them etc.

The Canadians who run it are a smart bunch, the soft sell works incredibly well.

I pulled traffic to it. I like Terry and the kink.com crowd, that program just didn't convert well at all for me with the same traffic source.

Vjo 12-30-2010 12:04 AM

I did convert well with them in 2009 and not as well in 2010. But they do recur really well.

Forkbeard 12-30-2010 12:33 AM

Yeah, I am afraid I was also rude to the Red Light Center guys early on, they approached me on one of my blogs and asked me to review their software. I took one look at the Flash download and said "You fucking kidding? Nobody in their right mind is going to download a flash app from an untrusted source, that's insane, your whole business model is fucked." (This was years ago when Flash was even more buggy and ridden with security horrors than it still is.)

Obviously I should have listened to H.L. Menken or P.T. Barnum or whomever it was that said nobody ever went broke by underestimating the intelligence of the public.

CunningStunt 12-30-2010 12:33 AM

I did do some split testing. For my traffic, the PPS was the better option. Here are my percentage account stats:

http://www.freetrialpills.com/rlc2.gif

Forkbeard 12-30-2010 12:42 AM

I should add that I've done OK promoting 3D Kink from KinkyDollars, which like the Red Light product has the advantage of being impossible to pirate, and has prettier avatars. But the products aren't competitors at all. I like to describe 3D Kink as being like "paper dolls for grownups" ... you can dress and undress the avatars, pose them, play with them, make them orgasm, earn coins to buy more sex toys and clothes and stuff, but there's no multiplayer, no social aspect, no cybersex, no other people.

Selling 3D Kink properly is also a lot of work. It's like blogging, I don't mind telling people how to do it, because nobody will take the advice. You can't just send people to the signup page, or put up the banners; that fails miserably (bad ratios). I find I've actually got to use the product, play with it at time-consuming length, take screen shots, and use them to illustrate blog posts. When people see that ... when they see that I'm telling my own story with pretty pictures I made with the product ... then they get interested and are more inclined to buy.

Erm, are you sure it's a flash app, it's a full on video game as far as I can tell.

Vjo 12-30-2010 12:44 AM

$60 a sale does seem the better route. I did the recur. They do recur well but $60 seems pretty decent.

I certainly dont mind signing up under anyone who has something that is converting. Seems a fair deal. :)

Spot on. One of the most effective ways I've found is to take it one step further, and promote it by using Camtasia, and making example vids - you have to omit the fucking of course, but a lot of it can be shown in a 1:30 vid. Watermark and away you go :)

Thanks :)

I always sign up with programs I find on here with the person's affiliate code, it's only right. The member helped me find the program in the first place, it doesn't cost me a dime, and they earn some wedge in the process. A 3 way win.

Jakez 12-30-2010 06:13 AM

So to join as an affiliate I have to join the site I'm going to promote?

There's a "Referred By" field on the join form, are you sure you're getting credit for referring people with that link?

signupdamnit 12-30-2010 06:42 AM

Is it really still a CCBill program? The flash tour states that it is under "How do I get paid?" with "you get paid directly by CCBill, our payment processor" but everything I see so far suggests otherwise.

interesting program, could be winner

No idea about the current product. Years ago when they hit me up for a blog review, they sent me a link; and when I hit the link, I came to a flash-only page that started a *long* wait-for-your-flash-to-down-load process.

Which I didn't bother with, because at the time, the idea that surfers would sit through that in order to try a product from an untrusted source seemed laughable.

But this was years and years ago -- by now, their tech may well have changed, and surfer attitudes surely have.

Are you saying it downloads an installable/executable with a certificate now?

Clever! But now I am LOL at myself, because I find myself doing what everybody else does when I give them advice, and thinking "Sheesh, that sounds like too much work..." There's damn little easy money left in this business, that's for sure.

Forkbeard 12-30-2010 08:43 AM

I got curious so I went back through my old email archive.

What happened was, in 2006 they started hitting me over and over with semi-automated emails on one of my cleaner blogs, begging me to join their affiliate program and blog about their product. Here's the actual blunt email I sent them after the first time they didn't take "no" for an answer:

Quote:

Serena, I've already responded to a similar pitch from your Mr. Tosch.

Bottom line -- upon trying to visit your site, I find a flash-based site -- strike one -- and can proceed no further without hitting a download button -- strike two -- from a company with no particular positive reputation -- strike three, you're out.

Nobody in their right mind allows unknown downloads, and I'm surely not going to try myself nor recommend that my readers do so. Especially when there aren't some big obvious links where people can read about your company, about the features of the site, and learn why they might want to risk the download. (The tiny little links in invisible red-on-black fine print at the bottom of the page don't count, because people can't see them.)

The adult industry is sick with malware. In this industry, you need a highly trusted brand if you want user downloads. The fact that you're apparently not conscious of that -- nor taking steps to reassure potential users -- would make anyone suspicious.
Apparently that wasn't clear enough for them, because they pitched me again two months later, causing me to write:

Quote:

I really wish you would remove me from your marketing spam database. This is the third pitch from you guys, but as I've twice explained, your site doesn't meet the basic safety-and-security standards necessary in the modern internet era. Please stop spamming me.
But anyway, looking at those emails, it's not clear that their actual application was ever in Flash, that seems to have been a false memory on my part. What they had was a slow-loading Flash-based website with no actual text about their product or their company, and you couldn't find out any more until you did the download.

contact me on ICQ, and show me please a little how you promote them, and I will sign up under you

Agent 488 12-30-2010 10:32 AM

their sign up is confusing. you have to create another ccbill account - can't merge with your regular ccbill account. at least when i signed up before. maybe it's changed.

i generally see them promoted via banner ads on tube and image hosting sites, although i'm going to try and few different angles as i like the idea.

ruff 12-30-2010 01:12 PM

Signed up under your affiliate link as well. Thanks for the heads up. Bump for business.

Interesting. I sent probably 15-20k test traffic to utherverse and didn't convert for shit (just free accounts that never converted to paid). Same traffic source that I use to send to 3D Kink.

http://b.imagehost.org/0415/3dkink.jpg

But you are showing a better conversion rate for utherverse than I am for 3D Kink. It truly is all based upon traffic sources. There have been many sponsors I wanted to push throughout the years because they had good people behind them, just couldn't get them to convert for whatever reason.

My traffic converts 3D Kink better, yours is the opposite.

Maybe I will give Utherverse a shot again and see what happens this time around.

Anyone wanting to push 3D Kink - Feel free to use my link. :thumbsup

It is CCBill.

Tjeezers, I get paid via wire transfer. I hate cheques with a passion. Drop me a line, I don't have ICQ. My email addy is oilybutts@@@@@yahoo.com

I should get credit for any signups just using that link, otherwise in the referred by field can you add mrplough2 please.

Search engine traffic converts the best of course - some phrases to kick you off in the right direction:

sex games
adult myspace
adult games
sex rpg
adult rpg
rpg sex games
adult mmorpg
virtual sex
virtual world
virtual dating game

VIP - from $20/month
?Unlimited access to VIP-only regions, content and features
?Private messenging
?Private apartment
?Advanced Avatar Customization
?VWW Population Capacity of 10 people
?Virtual Currency Transactions

Universal VIP - from $29.99/month
?All VIP-Only features listed above plus...
?Raises VWW Population Capacity to 25 people
?Grants the member a "Universal VIP" pass
?Unlocks the ability to purchase larger VWW Population Capacities
?Additional VWW features such as advanced tools, stats, Ad discounts

I would recommend the PPS route. Reason? 60% recurring of $20 is $12, which means they have to stay at least 5 months for you to get the same as the PPS option.

With my traffic, they were averaging 2-3 months membership.
