Danny's Corner - Tips, ideas, resources
As many of you during the years I have faced a lot of problems with the way I was promoting the services my models and I ffered, etc. One thing that counts though is the fact that all these problems needed a solution and with years of me finding solutions I have gained some experience on the branding of model, promotion and over all maintanence of model's image.
First thing you need to keep in mind, your image is your business and the way you mantain your business will be reflected in your income. Building a site is a different business than caming, is what I like to call "The Future". A site will not only generate income when you are online but also when you are offline, for as long as you update it, customize it and take care of it.
There is another topic here where the importance of a logo is debated, a logo and a clean design are the first signs of a quality sites.
Say you don't know how to make a logo or you don't know any graphicians that could help you? What do you do?
Start with:
www.cooltext.com , http://www.textfx.co/ , http://www.flamingtext.com/
These simple tools are easy to use and great for the creation of a logo to begin with. When it comes to customization of your site, you need to understand the importance of:
1. User Experience ( The main part about this is already taken care by ModelCentro since the sites are very simple to use) ... BUT! There are some things you need to take care of such as the colors you use on your site, the text (font and color) and the pictures, both the background ones or the ones on site, they need to be at a good resolution and clear, each section on the model admin shows you what resolution the picture should be. You don't know how to adjust the photos? Don't worry, i got your back, you don't need photoshop all the time.
You can easily edit all your pictures before uploading them on the site with tools like
www.pixlr.com/express and www.pixlr.com/editor
Another cool one is: https://www.befunky.com/features/photo-editor/
These sites are fairly easy to use and for those of you that don't know how to use them at all, there is a simple solution - search on google "edit photos online tutorial", you will be surprised by the amount of results you will get. Pretty much remember this word for everything that you don't know: TUTORIAL. Do you want to add a rain effect on your photo? Google "rain effect tutorial"
The last thing I will mention about user experience is something that we all learn the hard way, what WE like is not necesarly what the user likes and since he is the one who pays, make sure to always get his feedback, a month worth of customers feedback can change the whole way you see your site.
2. Updated content
No matter if you write a blog post about the ancient aliens having sex with a interstellar black hole or you write about you and your experiences, always make sure that blog of yours is always running. Not only that the users will love it but there are some little creatures that absolutely love blog posts, those are the search engine robots, they crawl all day long looking for fresh content and then delivers it to the results you then get on google. How many times haven't you find yourself in the situation where you are searching for something, say "lotion cream for dry skin" and instead of getting some online stores you discovered articles about that very thing? I bet is pretty often. Well, now you understand better how a decent text over subjects you relate with can attract a lot of organic users, users that are searching exactly for what you have to offer.
3. Happy Costumers. Make sure your costumers are happy, don't just make a site and just visit it every now and then, create a community, make them feel you are close, your site is their access to your personal life, or at least that is what most of the members want to believe. Just give them what they want, talk to them, answer to their messages, post things about your day, perform liveshows for them, etc.
Performing a live show can be sometimes "harsh" for girls used to gain 2-3-4-5-6-7 dollars a minute and they all tend to avoid it for as much as possible. As I said in the beginning, your image is your business and the first notion about business, one that we all know is that in a business you need to invest! No, not only money but also time, sometimes that time invested in your business will be more valuable than the money you invest in you. Why? Easy, back to nr 3, you keep the costumers happy.
This is the end of Chapter 1, I already wrote a lot, I hope I have you girls some good input over this, I will try to write an article about caming tomorrow, let me know if there is anything specific you would like me to talk about, I am an open book!
Comments
Nice I look forward to more of your writing with me completely looking at branding fully
Thanks for the awesome input @Danny! Great points, all of them!
@Cher Azur, I will do my best to post often, tomorrow I will speak a little about the importance of words and descriptions, who knows maybe other things, depends on what pops in my mind
You are the most welcome Natalie, glad to be apreciated, more to come!
@Danny I seen A lot of complaints for Fans about they never want to hear about a Models Personal Life. Exact Words are they don't care.
I tend to disagree with you, when I talk about personal life, I don't mean about a model's bills, issues and dieing aunts Members don't care about a model's life when that model is using a sad story to increase her "damage"....
What the member wants is as much as the model as he can get. He wants to see her naked, yes, but he also wants to see her shopping, or showing a nipple on top of the mountain, things that are part of her every day life, but then again this rule doesn't apply to everyone, if your members are used in a specific way and you actualy made research then just go with what you are providing but what I have seen in all these years are men falling inlove, becoming obsessed with the model they follow, when they do this, that is when the most money come. And for the money to come you need content, blog articles, cam shows, shirts, mugs ... you name it, a fan will buy anything from and with you!
But yes I was requested to acually post what exactly going on right now by a fan. It was odd he and them all wanted to know what I was going through. First time I ever posted something that personal
I told you is different from model to model, what I recommend you to do is to find out what your fans like and act accordingly, if they want to know about your day, you can write a blog post and tell them how you went shopping or what movie you seen, you can add some spicy details to make them curious for more.
Like on tv, when you watch a TV series, all the time you are left hanging. Do the same with them, be their TV show! They will come for more
I will write this article in bold because even if it is something you may not look over is very, very important.
TEXTS ON THE SITE
When you start building a site on MC you are presented with a list of template choices, templates that can and should be later modified by your own taste. What most people do is to edit the colors and upload the background pictures leaving the main texts there. I thought about the best way of explaining why this is not good.
Think of GOOGLE, YAHOO, BING, etc as teachers. Imagine those teachers gave you to write a story as a homework. What will happen when you all appear with the exact same story the next day? You know it, you will get a bad rate and if you continue to do it, you will get expelled.
This is pretty much what goes on with the search engine optimization, the bots that are crawling the sites go from page to page, from site to site and when they reach those with the same content they don't record the page anymore, or they do at the end of google page list. They are the teachers that are expelling you. What can you do? Well... take a few minutes and tell your guests something about you in your unique way. While you do it, you can read a little about SEO and you will discover that if you want to rank for a specific keyword, you need to place it strategically around the page. I will give you an example:
Let's say our model is a softcore one, her shows are more erotic and her style is close to a girlfriend, let's then offer your members a GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE.
Short description example:
Welcome In ModelsName Secret Space, are you ready for "the girlfriend experience"?
Video description : Girlfriend Experience Videos
Photo description : Girlfriend Experience Photos
About me description ( longer, important for google, recommended word count minimum 400)
Welcome guys,
I am ModelsName, your one true master of what you are seeking for, a girlfriend experience. My story begins back in the summer of 2009 when I broke up with my boyfriend that I loved very much, he left telling me he just wanted to have a girlfriend experience to see how it feels. Maybe other girls would go through big depression after that, but what he actually did was to give me an idea, If he was just searching for a temporary girlfriend, maybe others do too. If I provide knowingly this girlfriend experience, then maybe I can't be hurt, if there are people looking for it then there is a market.
See? From thought to thought, ModelsName was born. I began learning how to please my boyfriend and how to move in such ways that his brain stops working, yes my dear, I am here to make you go crazy with me, when you leave my room I want you to think of me and say: "Damn, that really was a girlfriend experience!" Just the idea of you leaving my room with this thought makes me wet. Can you imagine me touching myself as I write this?
Just imagine what would happen if you would be in a room with me, I am sure you would melt watching my naked body moving to the rhythm of a sexy song, while you hear me asking you if you ever felt this good, moaning, touching myself and reaching a strong orgasm, one that shivers my body and make me sweat and scream. Yes, I know, you are thinking about it right now, don't you? Have your girlfriend experienced with you something this hot and wild? I seriously doubt it, you know why? Because you can only be this good when you are 100% dedicated to what you do and I surely am, my main target was always to become that girl you have dreamed about when the other experiences you had with old girlfriends disappointed you....
There are so many ways to enjoy me and what I have to offer, you can register on my site and read my sexy fantasies that I write so often on my blog, you can see my girlfriend experience photos and videos or you can simply spend some time with me live on webcam, can you imagine that?
There is a simple way to do it and you are just a few clicks apart from that destination. All you need to do is to register an account on my site and be surprised by the intensity of my services, you are in for a treat, step in my world, come and get the magic of a girlfriend experience...
=====================
See what I did here? First I have let the SEO bots know the words "girlfriend experience" are important, then I have created a story that fits that model so the member is more likely to relate with her. The presentation is the core of your product, if you didn't watch that commercial on TV and hear some trigger words or if you haven't been reading that blog you like so much there is a high chance you wouldn't have purchased some of the things you do. Think about it, you know I am right.
I would go on with this but I am really tired, I will leave you with a couple of links for you to read, resources for a better version of you :

P.S. Don't think you now master the SEO, this is just the beggining, if I see some results from you girls I will come back with more tips on how to shine bright like a diamond...
Danny you are the BOMB thank you so much for your time. This really makes alot of sense.
Thank you Danny ur my new role model! hehehe
Great tips and tricks!!!!
I want too or will make an Facebook HOW-TO since i have been an admin for some time now and its not really being used by us.
Some spamm, will get us flagged at some point. I think...im not sure how MC stands with FB...
to prove my point TnAFlix is the perfect example of why spamming is terrible on social media and for earnings
Since we cant post any kind of adult content. There is still a way and even do pretty good market surveys for free, promote your page and get the social network fan experience im all about wanting to provide.
FB users share everything and love to brag about it! Even more if its a real Porn Model on FB.
And if one likes to meet the fans its a great place to really talk to them. As page admin one is in total control
Your Banner tool sites where a great start, i have found one of my own witch got me hooked, here is my profile.
