Credit Crunch and Niche Selection

Anyone else wanna help me bench mark this for a bit?

the result I expect to see is sales down on teen and general hardcore, sales level or at least down less on every other niche and fetish.

Between Madonna being one hot 50 year old, the whole Palin thing, the thing now with Cougars ... plus you're going to have older guys out of jobs who will still be spending money as they'll have more time on their (pun) hands ... I think the MILF niche is a strong one now and in the future.

So yeah, if all porn niches were stocks, I'd put money on MILF (Nasdeq symbol) to be the one do best for the prevailing future.

I hope your right, I'm in the works for turning sultrymilf.com into a tgp.

Yeah, Bluemoney, that's a very good example of what I'm talking about that site.

And that Michelle model fits in nicely in terms of what I meant by the Susan Sarandon type too. Nice job!

DOS TIP
A very popular niche in VOD is COUGARS.... if you read you AEBN webmaster news some kind soul up there explained the niche something like this ...

Cougar Content 09.25.08
Everyone is familiar with the MILF genre featuring the hot moms that fuel so many people's fire, and the category has an offshoot that's gaining in popularity: cougars. Cougars aren't necessarily mothers, but they're older, experienced ladies who are sexually aggressive and who know exactly what they want: to have sex with as many young men as they can.

If your audience is one with which the MILF content does well, cougar content is a guaranteed winner. Like MILFs, it trades on the same timeless teenage fantasies, but with its own distinctive edge that pushes all the right buttons. Who wouldn't want to go a round with an older woman who wants to share all the advantages of her years of experience?

With its recent focus in mainstream culture, cougars as a category is extremely popular at the moment. Don't miss out on a chance to promote it!

Here are a few galleries if you'd like to give cougar content a try:
