We were just interview for TechTV for my new site
www.othersex.com . It goes beyond personals and offers an entire online BDSM/Fetish community. I talked about here for a few months. Consumers are looking for more interaction, better value and information. Even when it comes to sex. You’ll always have your wankers who like looking at pictures and videos but the broad market is one more personally based. Even the wankers will leave your site and go to alt.com or match.com and try to hook up with live body or at least someone who will interact with them.
Online dating is huge. It’s just hard to get a site going. It takes time to seed the system and make it a site that people want to return to. Other Sex has free registration and almost everything is free right now. In a month, without any promotions other then my other sites, we had over 600 people register. I’ve hired well known scene writers and full time staff. I’ll be investing with no profit for at least another 6 months. I didn’t expect to put it up and start making money right away.
By the end of the year it will feature point to point cams where users can search a directory of like minds, already on the site and chat. That will become a premium service for those who want it. I’m just investigating the technology right now?
Anyone know someone that has an Ifriends type of script available for a site?
