ADULT MAGAZINE is launched!

[DominicFord]

Friends -

We have just launched the premiere issue of ADULT. ADULT is a free digital magazine that is viewed on the iPad. It featured gay porn, articles, funny things like "Whore Scopes," interactive games and much more. I hope you will take the time to download and read through it.

It is a monthly magazine are we are looking for any content you want to contribute. All content gets linked back to its producers, and our ads have amazing interactive features, like one-click newsletter subscribes or one-click free offers from your site. I hope you'll take a moment to check it out!

You can go to http://iReadAdult.com/?RefID=GayWideWebmasters to download it.

And thanks to all those on this board who either submitted content or advertised in the first issue.

Best,
Dominic

Awesome job, you guys going to keep this free?

[DominicFord]

Yes it will always be free and advertiser supported. (Of course that means we need advertisers!)

[HunkyLuke]

Good, glad to hear that it will be kept free. I think you have a real winning product here, it would be great to hear your download numbers after the first week or so too

[DominicFord]

Yeah, I'll update you as the month progresses. We've already had over 1200 downloads in the last few hours!

To bad it's only for Apple. :img60:

I know. The 13 million iPad owners are TOTALLY not enough. Just kidding, as I mentioned on GayDemon, as soon as other platforms support the interactivity that iBooks has we will support them. This isn't a "print magazine in digital form" but an entirely new beast that requires an advanced interactive platform.

I assume it has to be free, since iTunes/iBooks doesn't sell nudity.

I tried to put a couple of my photo books on iTunes books a few months ago, and got the bureaucratic cold shoulder, to my inquires as to why it kept getting rejected for this technical reason, or that.

FInally, an ombudsman type person whispered that it had to do with nude pics.

How is the response now that it's been out for a little while?

I've talked about it with people on Twitter and they think it's a cool idea. I've also been linking to it.

[DominicFord]

The response is great. From survey respondents, we've learned that 89% of readers (who responded to the survey) pay for porn, 79% in the last 6 month. Plus, 70% of our readers so far are clicking on at least one ad.

If you are looking to get in front of gay men with money, this is the place to advertise!

Great job Dom. :img94:
