Worse than the upsells in the members sections are the upsells on the sign-up page when you go to sign up for a site.
Unless you unclick the boxes, you might find yourself a recurring member of one or two more sites than you really wanted to belong to. READ everything before you give them your credit card number!

Exatly what JAY G said. Those annoying attachment on the sign up pages which are already clicked off, and if you aren't paying attention and forget to unclick, will make you regret that oversite. This is not a smart way for website owners to make money. If you want add that extra content and charge more then do so. Usually the extra isn't worth bothering with

REPLY TO #2 - pat362 :
Roger that, Pat362!! The worst thing a site owner can do is piss off a newbie with this deception. I stick around on any new site I subscribe to for a few months...and some for a year or more...but if I get schnookered with an upsell I'm gone.
The good news is that about 50% of the time I can talk my way out of the upsell by calling CCBill's (or whomever) 800 number.

Hi Monahan. I've yet to understand why the company that handles strapon lesbians, and a few others, doesn't simply offer the 18.95$ price upfront. If only as an half month membership or something. I'm
sure they'd get more members, which in turn would get them more money to offset the lost of income caused by the reduction of the sign up price.

Well, if it contains a good offer to a similar or sister website I don't mind. As long as they don't force anything on you.

The upsells on the sign up pages is really annoying, but I have found that some websites disguise the upsells on the member homepage to look like links to more free bonus sites. Clicking on the wrong link leads you down a path to pop-ups and ads. It's terrible.

Annoying, naughty and unprofessional just about sums it up.
The complete wrong way to go.

Upsells sometimes are offers of other sites at a discount. I approve.
