I see some appaling copy on websites designed to sell.

I found this today

http://www.copyblogger.com/copywriting-101/

It's really well written (well it should be) and if after reading it you haven't learnt something new you can immediately use to increase conversion I will send you a fruitella.

Interesting stuff..

but just to be picky. because i can,

someone who supposedly uses words for marketing purposes and then has a word like "cunt" all over his Avatar.. might that not alienate potential affiliates ..

good marketing ??? perhaps not

Hmm, leaving xcite-tvs point aside one thing I did notice Damian was your signature where it says The fetish days are long over but if I click on the link in your sig it takes me to ""Fetish Video Cash which is kinda confusing I think.

*If* your meaning that "The BDSM days are long over" this I also find a bit confusing as I still find the Lady Sonia site heavily promoted / advertised on various BDSM sites with strap lines such as " The Mistress that loves huge ....." (Note the use of the word "Mistress")

In short I think it's little confusing as to what Lady Sonia / Fet Video Cash is in terms of target affiliate, I carry the banner & am signed up to the programme but my site is very BDSM targetted, should I still be carrying the banner ?

(Note the above are genuine questions & NOT a pop at you Damian or anyone involved with the programme whatsoever, thanks)

Oh no offence taken mate.

This is something SGS and I have been discussing.

We will be producing a 'How to Sell Lady Sonia' microsite, because if you look at the content over the last - not sure - 4 years, there is hardly any BDSM stuff.

Edgy fetish, yes, but not BDSM.

Fetish Video Cash is changing to Sonia Cash.

The strap line is now 'Britain's most famous unfaithful wife'.

It's now more to do with Hot Wife/Cuckold than spanking and chains.

See sig for the actually niches covered. I will be producing new promotional material based around those niches and it will cover the whole journey. Banner -> Landing page -> Tour -> Join page. All branded with content for *that* specific niche.

You guys will of course be the first to know when all this goes live.

SGS feel free to go into more detail about this. :)

Feel free to hit me up if you have any more questions.

I'm not sure of many words 'like' cunt. I love the word. And I thought the picture was an amusing thing to do with sparklers and a good shot. As this is the porn industry, I had hoped it would make someone smile than drive them to stop promoting LS.

But you are right. Someone *could* be put off signing up for the program because of it, so I have swopped it for a pic of a cute lickle kitten.

Thanks.

personally i love using the word "cunt" at the right time and it was a clever thing to do with sparklers

I was trying to be helpfull as using the word will alienate some and as your now with SGS i simply thought that if it was me you worked for I wouldnt want you using the word in any marketing material at all.


as for the kitten ? :gayrepost:

Good post :)

We cover loads of "fetishes" but we haven’t done anything remotely BDSM’ish since the Visa guidelines were first published back in about 2002 and even then all we had was one 2 minute spanking video which we were only too pleased to take down. :)
