Simple things work best when looking for sign ups.

"The only thing that impresses a surfer enough to sign up is the QUALITY OF THE PORN."
I think this is a very debatable topic. What is quality? My opinion is that high quality images sell very well. But what makes up a high quality image is what is open for discussion. Where I think a lot of sites fall apart is on video quality. Too many guys think that making videos is like taking pictures. It is worlds apart. And today, video is becoming very, very important. If you are not shooting HD right now, then you are pissing up a rope.

The debate over what is quality porn is a tough one because to many it's different things to different people. But on a lot of the porn the difference is not "I would fuck her" it is "She will fuck me"

It's about creating the illusion in the mind of the consumer that the model, who is there to earn money, will fuck for free.

This might vary according to the niche.

And this is the tough part of creating porn, it's not about working a camera and getting the exposure right. It's about working the model.

It is very simple. If you can suspend disbelief, you will make money. Lots of it.

Perfect way of putting it.

The suspension of disbelief is what keeps us all coming back to this game every day.

As far as the exclusivity of content goes - as long as the surfer has not seen it before, it's the same as exclusive. I could add graphics proclaiming "100% Exclusive Content" to my site and I'm positive the reaction from most surfers would be a barely audible fart. Of course, my content is far from exclusive. But it doesn't need to be, as long the male penis still reacts to pics of naked women getting banged along with the lies I write about each set. Never under estimate the power of marketing - which is the suspension of disbelief.

The problem I see with well over 70% of the "Exclusive" content on the Internet is it's no different from so much of the other contrent out there. Very often it's just another sex scene shot on the cheap by a guy with little skills.

So the owner of the site has paid 10 times more to deliver something the surfer sees as no different to all the other content out there.
