Porn Mart I ran into this discount site this morning that offers discounts on subscriptions to adult sites. PornMart.com. I'm just curious if anyone's ever heard feedback on it, if it's too good to be true, completely legit or what. I'm looking to subscribe to BangBros again, but I'm a little low on cash this month. Any help would be much appreciated | |

This is probably common knowledge around here, but I figured it doesn't hurt to mention... Any discounts found at Porn Mart, should be found at TheBestPorn.com (and PornUsers) with a few exceptions. We're working on making sure those exceptions are filled asap. :) TBP continues to offer the most bang for your buck with 1233 site discounts(last I checked at least).

I have seen a few other review sites and would tend to say that there is not an all around better site than what we have here. TBP staff has done a lot of work to get us good information, s platform to contribute information, discounts that add up quickly. That said I believe that we should join sites through TBP's referral system to help give back to them for all that they have done for us. Giving TBP the credit for our joining a site is the least we can all do. I know my nose is a little browner now, but they have saved me a good bit of money, time and frustration.

If I had to guess, and it is only a guess, I would say it goes something like this. TBP says they can generate traffic by posting and referring to the site. This is true since we are here, especially us that contribute and spend a lot of time here since we are also some of the big spenders on porn. Lets just say 500 different people per day come to this site, that is 500 targeted people since those that come here are most likely to join a porn site. Disney would likely not be very good at getting a high percentage of it traffic to join a porn site. So, TBP says they can get 500 targeted people to at least see the site. Now lets say 5% will join the site, that is 25 new memberships simply because the site was on the front page for a day. At $30 a piece that is $750 for those 25 people. Lets say each member will cost the site $10 for bandwidth and such that is $250. So a profit of $500. Of course TBP has to get paid somehow for it all to be worth it, after all this site is not free, they have to eat, and the raffle is not magical money. To the porn site say they will give say 2 per new member. With 25 that would be $50 for that site that day. TBP says they can get more people to join if they can offer a discount (good for us). The site agrees that making less money on a member is better than making no money and no member. So they agree to offer $20 for people joining through TBP. We can all agree that $20 sounds a hell of a lot better than $30! SO, now lets say 15% of those 500 deside to join as the discount makes it hard to pass up, after all we just cant help ourselves. Now that it 75 people joining at $20. This would be $1500, TBP gets $150 because they are so awesome, and the site gets a better deal on bandwidth because it uses more thus costing $8 per member so it profits now $10 per member. Thus the profit made is $750. Of course $750 sounds better than $500, but they had to get 3 times the members to make 50% more. Which might make it not sound as appealing, but there is one more thing to consider. How many sites do a small amount of advertising for their friends. Reality Kings certainly does. So what they get to tell their advertising clients is that they got 75 new members instead of 25. So now they would potentially get 3 times the amount of referral kickbacks from those other sites. So in the end every one wins, except of course those who join the site directly because they get no discount. Porn bastards, they should have done their homework before joining. Of course I could be completely wrong about this, I am simply working off of minimal knowledge and simply using logic. If any one knows something I do not please do add it, hell I could be missing the whole thing...(this is your cue TBP guys). :) "For example, badandy400 has taken it upon himself to become the one man Library of Congress for porn with a collection that surely will be in Guinness Book of World Records some day." ~Toadsith~ PU Interview | |

What, you mean Rick isn't going to pay off his Ferrari any time soon with TBP revenue streams? Just wanted to note how "easy" it would be for TBP and/or PU to have advertising on their sites to beef up the potential subscribers. Thankfully they don't. Here's to the working class "porn bastards" of TBP/PU. | |

If you think about it, this is nothing but an advertising site. The point of this site is to keep targeted people watching this site, thus viewing the advertisements. Every review and comment is an advertisement, it just happens to be placed by us the PUs. That is great for us because people tend to trust other people more than they trust businesses. I have never seen a pour page that just said "hey, this site sucks but waste your money on it anyway." You will certainly find something to that effect here, omitting the waste your money anyway part. This is a dangerous way for a site to advertise, but has high rewards as well. Kinda like old fashion western dueling. If you have all your shit together you should be just fine, but if you are sloppy you get shot. If a website is in good order and has worthy content it will be praised and this site will prove to great advertisement. On the other hand if the site is sloppy, poor quality, and service is not there we will end up slamming the site, we certainly have done this, and the site could in time be devastated by bad reputation. What I do like about this site is the advertisement is not "in your face" like many people like to use. I have never been knocked out of my chair by pop-ups, nor has my email box exploded with junk from TBP. It is more like a catalog and if you put it down it stays down. Hell, they even allow us to turn off email notices and things of that sort. I am sure the TBP Guys have been asked by companies to post purely advertising links and banners on the homepage and such. Obviously they have the integrity to turn down these offers. The more we join site through TBP (so they get the nice referral kickback) the less likely we are to see a banner of a flashing cock and balls on the homepage of PU. The work they did to have the forum certainly was not all for business, but was not all for fun either. The forum is a fun thing to have and I am sure it was part of the reasoning they had for creating it. But the reality here is that the forum gives us more to do, we dont want to write reviews all time and this gives us a way to do other things. The forum attracts new people to this site and can increase the referral revenue for TBP and it keeps us usually people on the site more. Half the time I spend on this site I am in the forum section, and I always refresh the homepage to see if anyone has posted in the forum, and sure enough I pass right by a website review. Another nice thing about TBP and is good for websites is that I see many sites posted that I likely would never have found. I have joined many sites that I would not have if I had to find them on my own. Truthfully, I tend to not join sites that are not at least listed here. And site I do join I am very careful about and have to be something very specific I am looking for. To wrap it up, TBP and PU have a good balance between advertisement, advertisement method, and user interaction. So long as the balance remains I will be around for a long time serving in this "you scratch my back and I scratch yours" relationship we all have going here. I am sure many of you can say the same thing and some have been here for years already.

Well, I know that Abby Winters is the only site I ever subscribed to without consulting TBP and PU first. So to all the sites that got my dollar since Sept. 07 be thankful to the folks of TBP for their reviews, links and discounts! :-) | |

I have to say that I have like others taken that bullet, and joined a site not yet reviewed, and got nailed because it sucked. But I think it evens out because I have joined some nice ones because of the reviews. Everyone does and awsome job. Since 2007 | |

The bottom line with PU/TBP (and all other porn site review sites is that their business model is based on what badandy's post describes well. But the big difference between PU/TBP and the other review sites is the active interaction of us porn users and the fact that the commentary supports the good sites and punishes the bad sites. If you check the sites that get bad marks from PU members on the other review sites you will usually find that the other sites are heaping praise on the lousy sites. Interestingly the few other review sites that actually provide an opportunity to its audience to comment on sites (usually in forums) don't highlight those comments (a user has to dig rather deep to find them), have no cumulative scoring and the user comments are not linked to the reviews posted by the site. That's why a positive review by a PU member is so valuable to the honest sites and, as a result, to PU/TBP, because the users have no reason to post a positive or negative review other than because it's their honest, unsubsidized, point of view. And that's also why we porn users will stay with PU because it has everything; the discounts, the comprehensiveness and the heavy influence of its members on the content. | |

I can't think of single review site that has or had more than one reviewer for each site. TBP usually has four voices and PU has so many more. I think that was the one quality that attracted me to TBP's reviews. When I first started visiting TBP. I made it a point to always read the highest and the lowest score. This way I could better judge the reason for the score. Long live the Brown Coats. | |
