How To Promote/Market Adult Material
I have developed initmacy manuals that I have no idea how to market. My problem is that adult material tend to be on either side of a very thin line. It can be informational sexual material or ceative filth. Even if I were to get it on Ebay, how do I market on the net? My topics are racey but my material is fun and informative (educational to say the least). It is not raunchy or tasteless. I offer tips, tricks, products, and things of that nature. My main goal is to promote sexual health and intimacy.
Target market: Women ages 21-35, any race, any income level.

And getting contacts the old fashined way....talking to people and creating a mailing list is a great idea....that may work!
And the mailing list broker.....sounds expensive but very good for business because this type of thing is something you can`t just spam people with. I remember getting an email with the subject "Orgasms Anyone?"...As open as I am to intimacy, I was appalled that right between my Daily Yahoo Horoscope and Cable Bill Online mail was this email just glaring.....If I had subscribed....that would have been different but I was spammed sexual filth and I didn`t like that!
You notice how they don`t have any bare skin on the front? follow their format. I think the reason why youre getting the dirty end of the stick is because, there`s no landing page that releases all liability from you. Kids these days will browse through a lingerie shop just to get a thrill, Either create a nice and tasty landing page for your clients or register with Netnanny. But I think that your best approach is give your site a tastefull landing page. Don`t get me wrong, you have some beautiful models. But being that the people at MSN are against sex. That is all you can do..
Great info from Cartess3, as always! I tried to advertise my lingerie site on MSN, and they refused my listings because of adult content. I could not use the word "sexy" in my advertisments. I`ve submitted my site to directories that refused to list my site because of adult content. I haven`t figured out why people are so embarassed by the topic or suggestion of sex. A healthy sex and fantasy life within a marriage or relationship is normal. Sounds like you are offering a great product and I wish you well in your business. Vicki
Not everyone thinks as what you are of course when they see that word there attention catches there but still we cant weigh everyone in the same plates hope you understood there will be a genuine way for everything i feel.

Mike, Even if you add a Huge Button that says "Click here if you`re 18" what is the possibility that a 10 or 15 year old may want to click it? I would say about 95% correct? For you to make that statement is vague. How would you know that he/she is 15 years old? even if you added 60 redirects, possibilities are that they are going to click on the over 18 to get a thrill. Now here`s where it gets complicated. As much as you are trying to run a perfect business. Some Agencies, like Net Nanny and others have made it impossible for anyone to run a business online. It is not up to the Store Owner to watch what their children are viewing. It is up to the parents to be responsible. But these companys have made it so impossible that some how it`s up to the store owner to disguise their Online Store... What about when you`re at t he mall and you walk through Fredicks of Hollywood?
Secondly, it would be wise to tell the search engines that you are selling adult products... You can do this by creating a meta tag that tells the search engines what your content is about. Another issue you need to look at is your disclaimer. Remember, to add a 2257 notice to your web site. Regardless if you`re hard-core porn or soft-porn or something as a simple sexy lingerie store.
Add this to your header / Meta tags
<meta name="rating" content="adult">
I have that the same problem with promoting Confadate. We offer "pre-date" background checks for men and women who "meet" someone on line and want to know if they are who they say they are or, heaven forbid, a sexual predator. To me it makes perfect sense to find out, but many do not understand that a background check is public information...no privacy violations here. I wish you luck.Sandy
I took a look at your web site SANDYPI, and your web site shouldn`t have any problems ranking. But you have to do some extra leg work... Get rid of the Word "Sexual Predators" Use the word Predator since this would cover sexual, or any other types of predators.. Remember that the word Sex, sexual, sexy, are close to being banned from the search engines. So try a different approach. And when you optimize your site meaning creating the key words avoid the word sex or sexual... strip the front page of any derogatory words. For example: change the National Sexual Offender Database" to National Offenders Database... perhaps with a link to your FAQ`s or blog content explaining what you mean...
