Hmmm... just wondering, would this work?
Hot studs and jocks in non-nude positions, but very hot and sexy pics.
There are tons of straight sites like that - hot glamour babes, but I haven't came across a gay one yet
And if it would, why is there no such site?
i believe that this would work like crazy - and women would buy memberships to such a site, too.
as to why, most of the webmasters i know do the same things that other webmasters have done. it's amazing the niches i've worked that very few had ever tried. girls with freckles, boys in socks, girls in socks, guys in glasses... and they all did fine.
another niche site i've never seen is a gay handjob site - there are plenty of j/o sites, but not sites with a guy jacking another guy off. i think this also has serious potential.
Oh, and by the way, I'm really into this idea and I've already made a bit of a research, but how the heck am I going to get good models and ofcourse a photographer that would be able to jump around USA? What's the easiest way, I mean, to hire someone or what?
I'm really on a dead field here, I've done some work with a certain photographer in Europe, but it was a bit different...
Any suggestions?

Yes, sort of what I had in mind, but it's not quite erotic for me, and too many hot looking guys in shorts...

We're working on a Male Non Nude site at the moment for our upcoming affiliate program and, i have to agree with what has been said so far, it would seem in addition to webmasters, surfers are loving the concept too at least the ones we've had sign up so far :)

many sites don't have 2257 - mainstream sites. because they are legally exempt from record keeping. you are only legally required to have the disclaimer if you have sexually explicit content, and allamericanguys doesn't even have non explicit nudity.
a GREAT site, btw :)

Anyone thinking about competing with AAG, forget it.
AAG has some well-seasoned mainstream modeling photographers. Some of their guys even shot the A&F catalogs and other stuff on that level. Not to bash adult industry photographers, but nobody on our end has the skills and equipment to do what mainstream can for a project like this. Just a fact.
And good luck finding models for such a site. Even great porn models are "guys next door" compared to legit mainstream models. So you aren't going to recruit them off the street at the rate you'd need. You'll be using agencies. Then of course they aren't going to work for $200 like a desperate twink will.
The pro mainstream photographer will cost you. And don't forget the hair and makeup professionals you'll need on hand also... or the wardrobe.
Great potential for such sites, but not something you decide to do on a whim... or a budget for that matter.
Anyone from our industry attempting such sites will be putting up cheap knockoffs. But I'm not saying anything you don't already know.
You Matt, the amazing thing about common sense is it isn't all that common.Quote:

so i don't agree that it's a fact. there's no reason to do another site like AAG, 'cause it's already there, but if you spend enough money, you can find gorgeous professional models in a large variety of looks. sure, if you spend $100 an hour for amateurs like i do, you get amateurs. that's fine, too.
but if you use a photographer who really knows his shit, high end video cameras, lighting men, and makeup people, you CAN make a site of the same quality. but you will spend some SERIOUS money getting started.
what if you were to do a site of that quality about twinks? that wouldn't be ripping off AAG, and i'd love to see it. the prettiest slender gorgeous 18 to 21 year olds shot with the ultimate quality in a variety of locations. or truly model-quality black guys, in full-on calendar quality shoots - i think it would ROCK!

I mean, is there so much more money in straight porn? And by the way... AAG is not a GAY site and it's not intended mostly to gay men, and most of those photos are not glamour pics from my side of view, but just regular pics that great models make them look better.
The only site I can think of that comes a bit close to gay glam photo would be randyblue, but just a little close to it.

Dude, just get your jingle on and kick ass
it's not so much whether there is more money in str8 porn - there is a greater variety of niches to promote. like handjobs - i REALLY wanted to promote handjobs, and the only two so-called handjob sites showed mostly blowjobs. i hit every board looking for handjob sponsors, and next thing you know, EVERY program has 'em.
there is NO reason why there are no handjob sites for the gay market.
besides non nude, there is also a lot of single girl sites with different themes. and a lot more reality site niches - like milf and granny. up until june 22, i had a grandpa avs site, and it sold well, and this is NOT mature but rather guys over 50.
even muscle - i tell guys here that i promote muscle and they say "eww! i hate bodybuilders". yet muscle was our number one converting niche for years.
i'd love to see some high end glamour sites, but if you're going solo or non nude, there's no reason they have to be "gay" sites. just make two tours or go gender-neutral.
