MrBison's Review
Thanks for the very detailed take on the site. We like to respond to all our reviews and provide feedback on errors that sometimes pop-up with peoples details. I think your positive and negative comments are all pretty accurate. The site is huge and the orgasms are real but the ultra amateur style isn't for everyone. We have tried to slicken up some aspects in the past and so often we lost some of the charm that made us unique, so always a work in progress. Thanks again for taking the time to provide your thoughts, it was a good read and surely something to book mark and remember as we evolve.
P.S. the only issue I have is the "snail mail" comment, you would be surprised how many people send cash for memberships, especially from China. And when I say issue I am really being quite factious and joking, it does look funny in 2019, but hey, cash is cash. :)
All the best!
Todd

exotics4me's Review
Hey Thanks for taking the time to review us! It was a good read, very detailed.
I think most of your cons seem to be personal preference with the exception of a couple, so no debating the cons based in personal preference. I am with you on the super hairy girls, not really my deal either. Shooting in the Pacific Northwest gives us the benefit of having a number of first time girls or only time girls, but does get us quite a bit more pubic hair. Oh well, I will take the true amateur over that, but I totally understand your position. I have started asking a few of the models we re-shoot to trim up for the next one, some are ok with it, some get a bit offended. For me, I just ask them to show our viewers another look they can have. I will continue to do that.
Interviews are also a personal preference. Over the last 15 years, I have had hundreds of people write about how much they love them and many that don’t. The pro interview crowd has always been more numerous, so they remain. They are especially popular with our female members as they create a more emotional connection. I understand though.
The scrolling you are seeing on the top banner is because that image is parallax and we haven’t quite mastered what we are going to do with it. The scrolling is natural, but not optimal as of today. Many sites run an advertisement up there, which makes sense, but I am not sure the first thing I want our members to see is an advertisement. We may just put something up there that directs the members to a particularly good video or something.
In regards to this.
“There's no way to remove the videos you're not interested in. A quick fix? Put a masturbation tag on all of the masturbation videos and add a new option in the videos drop-down box that is just masturbation to filter those out or in, depending on your perspective.”
We do have a tag that accomplishes this. It is named “Yanks Featured Video” search for that tag and it will nix all of the interviews and bonus clips and only see masturbation videos in order they appear. I will consider changing the name and possibly adding the functionality you mentioned. There are pros and cons to doing that. Navigation is such a bitch sometimes. 
Thanks again for the review and we hope to see you back again soon!
Also, you should also check out the VR version at some point as well. It is a different world and we have some really fun stuff there!
All the best!

I am not ignoring your point. I am disagreeing with it. We are shooting more girls and more masturbation videos in the period 2013-today then we did in past years. So you are not correct in that we are shooting less masturbation videos. We are shooting the same, you just like to cut our update schedule and post it in a way that supports what you are saying. Last time you did this had you gone 1 or 2 updates forward and backward there would have been two more videos, you cut your dates right before and right after.
If you joined last year for a month and then came back this year you would have found 72 new shoots, 144 new orgasms for $19.95. That is $.14 cents per orgasm with supporting content. If that isn't worth it for you. That is fine. I think it is an ok deal.
I am not going to agree with you that our bios, interviews, and photo-sets do not count as content. We will need to agree to disagree.

Sorry to tangle. I can assure you our updates haven't changed. And I just did tell you your review was wrong, because it is wrong. I have been in this business for 15 years, so I am happy to respond to any "old timer" that would like to discuss our site. Please have them join and we will review the site here. I welcome that.
As for the chart you posted above, you are speaking once again to the specific content you like, this does not represent everyone who likes the site. I am sorry you don't like all updates, others do.
Good day

Hello RagingBuddist My response is the same as last year. We do daily updates and have updated in the same manner for over a decade. Your chart shows daily updates and then some. This is what we advertise and this is what we deliver and have delivered for 15 years.
You have a preference for only certain types of video content, that is ok, that is your taste, it is not the taste of all of our customers and it does not dictate to us what is considered content. Many of our customers enjoy the other very unique facets of our sites. Hand written honest biographies and interviews with girls that have only ever appeared on our site do have an appeal to others. Photos appeal to others even if they don't appeal to you. These are things that you cannot find on the free tube sites. All of this is crystal clear on the review of our site on this very site.
I am sorry you are disappointed with a site that has a library spanning 15 years. We have almost 700 amateur girls who each have at least 2 videos of the highest quality we could produce on that date. Almost all of these girls, 99.9% have real orgasms. I am sorry if you want an "orgasm factory" of some sorts. We do things the right way, our girls are hand selected and they are all as promised. Real girls, real orgasms. There are not many sites out there that offer more for the price you can get it here.
We have not changed our pitch to you as a customer. We did not advertise that we increased our video uploads per week. I agree, I think you should be more pissed at yourself for expected something different and then chastising our hard working team for delivering the same quality product we always have at a great price, as advertised. $10 less than you could have bought it for in 2002 BTW.
If you don't want to join again, I am truly sorry, however I am ok with risking not having your money to tell you that your review is wrong and quite frankly rude.
Good day
Todd

Thanks for the compliments about the videos being well done. That truly means a great deal to us. And I am always happy to respond to someone who takes the time to offer their thoughts about what we do.
In regards to our target audience it is neither male nor female. YanksVR is a brand extension of Yanks.com which we founded in 2002. We have honed the messaging and targeting quite a bit over the last 15 years. Our evolutions have always been data driven which is why we are still here after 15 years. This has led us to us positioning ourselves as a premium 100% female produced website (absolutely true of course) that focuses primarily on authentic female pleasure. If you are a guy or a girl if you enjoy that you will enjoy the site. The orgasms are as real as advertised and many of our girls have expressed a desire to be together before the shoots. It is this experience that we are trying to improve. I wouldn’t want to position it as for women or for lesbian women as that approach would be too narrow.
In regards to your suggestions I understand your viewpoint and will pass on this review to our producers. You are totally correct about the challenges VR presents right now. It is so early and in regards to cameras, rigs, positioning, etc there have been immense challenges.
Your analogy regarding 3rd person viewing however isn’t exactly accurate. If it was voyeur porn would not exist and the gamers making a million dollars a month streaming their games would not exist. I believe you are perhaps, naturally of course, allowing your own tastes to limit the attractiveness of the product to people who enjoy other niches and other experiences. YanksVR is a step in a direction from Yanks that is really early in the game. There is so much potential here. We have some things in the works that I believe would be steps towards what you would consider better use of VR. I do agree that we, and most people, are not optimizing it yet. Which is ok, it is early.
Our site is a higher cost than average. Once again this was data driven based on what we have seen from both Yanks.com and YanksVR. We launched at $30 and raised it to $40 and found that our loyal customer base stuck with us at the very same rate and with the very same loyalty. This allowed us to reinvest in new cameras and up our game. The first of the higher rez content was posted on Feb 1st.
I could also go into some of the details of the much more aggressive marketing approaches that some of the lower priced sites use, however I will keep it civil. You probably don’t see them as much because you are coming across quite technically savvy and probably avoided them without noticing. Most folks will however pay the extra $10 at some point.
Again, your review and thoughts were very interesting to read. You clearly know your stuff and something to know about me is that advice and suggestions tend to sit in the back of my head for a while and spin there.

Sorry "all girl" isn't your thing. No worries at all. However I would like to clarify something in your comment. The purpose of VR, like video is certainly not limited to one thing. Yanks.com was build on the premise of being the fly on the wall and observing women by themselves and with other women. YanksVR now takes you into the scene as if you were on the bed with them or watching from a very close position while offering all of the 3D effects that VR entails.
In regards to the size of the YanksVR site, we are about average right now in terms of quantity of scenes. Not the biggest and not the smallest, but right in the mix. In terms of the niche, All female and 100% female produced there is only us.
Hope you find what you are looking for and I appreciate you taking the time to comment.

Looking at this layed out like this you are correct. Billie is talking to our CMS manager about this now. Our current shooting schedule has not changed. We shoot 6 girls a month (2 masturbation videos with each girl) Any given two week period should than have 5-7 videos depending on the days. I apologize for this. We will figure out where these videos are and what the issue is. Thanks for highlighting in detail.
EDIT: We will also make sure they get added.

Hello RagingBuddist As always, we sincerely appreciate your loyalty and your passion for the site. I would however like to clarify our update schedule so that it is more clear for everyone. Our goal is to do daily Yanks.com visual updates, we do this 99.9% of the time.
Biographies do come through as updates because we do want people to know when one has been posted, however they do not count as a "daily update" by our scheduling standards. The same goes for ATK and GOW updates, they also never count as "daily updates" to us. If you look through our update calendar you will see that whenever there is a ATK, BIO or GOW update there is also a Yanks video or Photo-set of some kind.
That being said there are some time anomalies that happen between when the content is released from our servers and content management system and what the local time is on your computer. Daylight savings time also happens at different times around the world which will also bump a set one day ahead or back. Once again if you refer to the calendar you will notice that when the schedule above is not accurate there is an extra Yanks update the day before or the day after that would be realign to our goal according to your time zone.
Our hope is to eventually add 7 high quality video and photo partners like GOW and ATK so that each day there will be a Yanks visual update, a video partner update (full video) and a photo partner update (full HQ set). This in addition to the bios that we release from time to time. That will be 3-4 updates per day with one Yanks visual update daily everyday.
I hope that clarifies the schedule. Thanks again for your loyalty and hope to see you back before a year, however it is not until then we will be more than happy to show you what we have next time we see you.
All the best!
Todd

Thanks for noticing RagingBuddist. We have in fact sped up and increased our updates so that we are doing daily Yanks visual updates (pics and vids) along with other updates such as bios and friend site content. In other words there is always something to look at every day. ;)
I am looking forward to what you think of our next members area coming out in a month or two. It will be easy to use, visually appealing and a bit less linear which will make discovery of some of the gems of our past a bit easier. So whether or not you stay the whole time or swing back in, we would welcome your comments on the next layout. :) All the Best!!!

soloporn's Review
Hello soloporn
First off thanks for joining the site, I can’t tell you how much we appreciate every member we have. I think your review is solid and I want to be one of the first to welcome to the world of Pay Sites! Ok cheesy, but hey.
In regards to your comments I agree with all but one of your pros and cons.
We will be launching a new and improved member’s area in 90 days which will update the site and make it look more appealing and respond faster. I agree that the inside of the site needs to be brought up to the outside in terms of look and feel. The tagging issue will also be handled and the tags you used as examples will be combined as they should be. This has always been a pet peeve of mine as well.
I did however want to mention that we use a JW streaming player and not flash, so that should be up to date and working quite well. We just updated that in November I believe.
As for the rest of the review I enjoyed reading it and it sounded as though you enjoyed the site overall. And while we aren’t the biggest amateur site online I do know that we are respectable and always always try to put in the extra effort in terms of quality and taking care of our members.
Thanks again!

kong666's Comment
Moderators can you please contact this user and ensure they are talking about our site? I know you don't typically remove comments, however he is talking about a model that is not, nor ever was on our site. In addition his facts are incorrect based on your own reviews of our sites over several years. I am fine with feedback but we pride ourselves on providing a quality product and I don't want to take a hit if this dude hit the wrong button.
Thanks Todd

Hello kong666 Before I respond to the rest of this are you sure you are reviewing the correct site? We do not have and never have had a model named "Mistress T". Can you take a screen grab of this video and email it to me. todd@yanks.com
Thanks

Wow, thanks for such a spectacular review. You highlighted so many of the things we strive for in such a positive light and that feels very rewarding. Billie and I always pass along every review to our team, and while we don't get many negative ones, this is a gem of a review to share. Thanks again and we are very glad that you enjoy the site.
