View Full Version : Whilst I Respect The People At ARS For...
The drastic changes they have made to their business model to become more profitable for both themselves and their publishers my honest feeling is that these changes are going to have a negative effect on ARS overall :(
Sorry for speaking my mind but anyone who knows me will know i wont candy coat my opinions for anyway and as of right now, this is how i see tings, hopefully some of the new un-released features will change my opinion on this in the immediate future but as of right now, i dont like ARSRI at all :(

I agree completely lee........
Its a very poor effort in respect of gay sites/niches......
Saying champs will help is no good for most.........$29-99 with no trials might sell for some.....but for most smaller wms not a chance.
the recurring aspect is great.....the console control is great...
That Gays in city site sucks big time ( and the only option i got was $4-99 or full month).........please please please let there be more gay sites. Black /asian/latin....after all it was said there is loads of content available.
To make the se (fmao) per click pay as per Gim sites would need huge amounts per click for most wms.
Im sure many things will be added and i hope its soon or loads of people will be shifting traffic pdq.
Paul im sure CHAMP will have more offerings but for the time being those of us who d have a considerable amount of gay traffic are going to be left out in the cold :(
As i say hopefully the future holds some great things and i hae every confidence that new sites are going to be launched it is just dissapointing to see that the most profitable market in adlt has been left like this from one of th industry leaders :(

Yeah I was thinking that too...then I thought again and hello it's only free memberships we can sell. $29.99 memberships which I've never ever had luck with any kind of full memberships.

i took a look at the members areas and they have 10-12 streaming episodes and nothing else. I don't know if it's the trial preview or not.
Leaving out so many niches is problematic by default.
Time will tell.

i think there will be a lot of very angry people waking up to this......
I can understand 100% ARS needing to make a profit.....but all i can see this doing is making a lot of WMs dump ARS.
We need choice choice choice......I cant see other sponsors following this model at all.
The payout rates/structure & recurring is fine......but so far very very limited choice for the trial sites.....and not much time before all links are diverted..
Please please please add more!

Members areas will be getting a massive overhaul within days.
