Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliate's Appreciated

Hi all,

I am very flattered :yes4: to be able to now post here, for that Bjorn - thank you.

So, the website in question - http://www.joshuaarmstrong.co.uk

Why am I here

I am here to graciously ask for affiliates :blushing::slight_smile:

Not a single part of my domain,hosting,delivery of content, recording of content or content itself that isnā€™t me.

I hope this allows for risk-free opportunities as I can 100% promise you there will never be a DMCA request, for myself!

I am 26, from the UK. Iā€™ve been bodybuilding since i was 14. And ~2 years ago, I stumbled into muscle worship websites (guided by the lovely + brilliant Shaun), live cam, Skype and then eventually custom videos.

I work full time as a senior (for my age) Oracle Database Administrator, but also have certs in Cisco networking, Red Hat / SOLARIS / HP-UX Linux Systems. and due to life time-constraints I felt using my background, and my ability to self teach I would be able to produce a website where I can reduce the amount of hours I need to work, for equal gain.

All my knowledge to run my website, is self taught - therefor I am incredibly passionate about it. As i am never stopping learning, and never stopping putting what i learn into production.

Affiliate Scheme - http://www.joshuaarmstrong.co.uk/AFFILIATE

Advice given and taken in by Gaydemon has setup my affiliate scheme to be 50% payout on all recurring payments.

Anyone who was originally with me before this post and in light of the new information. I have changed your % to 50% to be in line! If iā€™ve missed someone then just a nudge and iā€™m right on it.

My membership options are all recurring

$9.95 Every 3
$19.95 Every 7
$49.95 Every 30

Content

I have 220+ videos,

Beginning with a Logitech C920, but now ending up with a semi-pro DSLR - so the quality has improved, along with my every day updates to various parts of my website, as well as my ever growing to-do list

If you guys ever know an Oracle DBAā€™s (IT world) we are very thorough by nature, and there hasnā€™t been a morning in a year that I havenā€™t jotted down an idea in the morning on a piece of paper I keep my bed then implemented it on the following weekend.

My content (videos) is so broad, from the absolutely amazing amount of exciting custom video requests I get through

I get to expand my fetish Role play + fantasy collection weekly,

I have gotten high on poppers, gotten high of nitrous oxide

I have been in the US army , US Navy, UK Policeā€¦

I have been a painter, a yard worker, a construction worker, a plumber, a doctor

Ive smoked, Iā€™ve worn nylon, lycra, singlets - the list just goes on and on - heck iā€™ve even been a gardener

The reason I have been able to succeed is my passion behind the camera, the words that flow - it just comes naturally. When I found out I was bringing happiness across the globe by bringing these muscular fantasies to life, it just made it so much better.

Social Media presence?

Instagram: 35,000 followers
Twitter 25,000 followers
Youtube 4100 subscribers

These followers have been attained in around 10 months.

Regularly Updated?

I have streamlined all my tasks, and one being updating my website front page

My front page is updated with a blog entry 4 times a day, I am able to succeed in this by using scripts to follow my social media posts through to my wordpress blog, then through to every other social media website. All with one post and one caption.

I upload around 5 new custom videos a week, sometimes itā€™s 6, sometimes itā€™s 4 - I guess it depends how JUICY the one the night before is, I like to keep my members entertained, so I build up the release the night before I set it live.

Thank you for reading! If you could make it to the end of this wall of text that is!
Joshua

Hi!
Welcome to the best gay adult webmaster forum in the world, wise choice to sign up here :slight_smile:

I always love solo sites, especially solo sites with muscle too. Iā€™ll give it a go in the next few weeks and see what happens.

Have to say though, Iā€™m a bit worried about finding content we can use to promote you. I generally need at least four images, of at least 700px wide, and a video trailer.

Would you have any problems with affiliates downloading your trailers to use on blogs?

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

Yes, welcome, and thanks for telling us about your site, but before I sign up as an affiliate I need to ask about promotional content ā€¦ what will be available for us to use and how often will new promo content be available?

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

If you bare with me, I am collating as much of my banners / content to be posted in here to show off current artwork

I do my own artwork, and have a graphic designer on tap :slight_smile:

I would also be willing to make ad-hoc videos on my DSLR for anyone who affiliates me with the result of sales, if sales are coming in, id treat it as a important client and provide you with whatever you need / want to make sure my look is fresh.

Iā€™ve done short few minute clips for many sites including MyMuscleVideo + Gaytube, Blogs, Underwear companies (AMU)

RE: trailers to use on blogs
I have 220 or so 45seconds - 1.30minute trailers available, free to go whereever / whenever they are wanted, I do all my own video editing too.

But i suggest you ask me to make a bespoke one, being ā€˜cheekyā€™ it works very well

PPS

I also have a local porn photographer who is great and will shoot me in any location I wish for. I plan to do another one when I get as lean as I can get in the next few weeks

You have a great attitude to working with affiliates, so I want to say well done on that. It can be hard to maintain, but if you have a good group of effective affiliates you can focus on it will be easier to maintain that level of support. I think youā€™re going about it the right way.

I would say though, you probably need to have a specific area of the site for adding zip files for your affiliates, with pics, a blurb and a trailer.

Iā€™ll send you a PM :slight_smile:

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

I was going to upload them in-line, but It was Spam, so here are a few inline

and im going to post up a downloadable ZIP location of more artwork.

Thank you for the kind words, I would like to have exactly what you say - a good group of effective affiliates, then i use my time wisely, and that is to provide what content you need, in order for us both to excel

Very quickly knocked up three zip files with artwork while I work on a ā€˜backendā€™ for my affiliates - Like I said everyday I wake up, im doing something new :slight_smile:

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

Hi Huey

I have attached to my latest post, 3 downloadable zips with static images ranging from 100x100,300x250,1080, there are 15+ sizes available as it stands

If you had a specific request for a size, or a image or a ā€˜lookā€™ I would make it happen,

Iā€™ve found that you can look at me/my site slightly differently to other afilliates, as my home page is updated with new content so often, and i write on it like a blog, my traffic is around 3k sessions a day without going down this route yet. So in simple words, I cant wait!

An ADHOC 1 minute video I could do which you could embed, would work wonders.

If you tell me what you want me to say, how i want to say it, i make it sexy - you embed it.

Frequency I would really leave to whoever wishes to work with me, id rather have a personal basis of contact rather than ā€˜updatingā€™ affiliates weekly with a newsletter, want some promo - ask and id deliver!

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

Welcome, thanks for joining and Iā€™m looking forward to promoting your site.

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

Hi - come to think of it second time around

as suggested by conran

I could make new content available almost every other day, as every time i upload a ā€˜custom videoā€™

I take 5 stills from it, and then i make a 1 minute teaser clip

I could place these files on my server ready for collection whenever you wanted to freshen up or get a certain ā€˜genreā€™

Thanks, sounds good to me, I only use images on my blogs, so the stills (assuming they are of good quality) would be all I need to promote your site, and a couple of times a week to start with would be more than enough for my needs.

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

I dont think wordpress is too great for allowing me to do it with speed.

Yeah I shoot on a DSLR so the stills come down from the massive resolution before i make it ready for web.

do you think dropbox would work, does anyone use that for this kind of thing? would you be opposed to using dropbox?

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

I get promo content from another site via dropbox, so I am not opposed to it, not sure about everyone else, most sponsors provide content zips affiliates can download from links they provide either via email or on an a dedicated affiliate page.

I do think that would be the best way to go.
We would like to add posts regularly and go back though old content to promote too. To be honest, all of your videos would be appropriate for our main blogs regardless of niche, we focus on a lot of solo, muscle, straight guys, and uncut cock.

Re: Solo Muscular Fetish, Fantasy + Role Play Membership Site, Affiliateā€™s Appreciate

Hi All,

Thank you for everyone whoā€™s signed up so far.

Iā€™ve created a drop box with an absolute silly amount of content.

Please see the various sections, I will break them down;

First of all, order them by DATE then you will get newest/oldest, my stills are matching my videos going back two years, but basically theres 3-8 pictures every day or every other day for 2 year, Selfies + Stills, The most recent Stills (past 3-4 months) have been from my DSLR so they are the best in quality, I run a photoshop macro to size them for wordpress. So if the sizing isnā€™t right let me know and ill upload them before I re-size and adjust the lighting.

  • Affiliate Artwork Various Sizes
  • Photoshoot Pictures High RES
  • Photoshoot Pictures Low RES
  • Pictures (Stills from Video Trailers) & Selfies
  • Video TRailers (MOSAIC XXX)
  • Video Trailers (Youtube)

I will email affiliates Shared URLS + Password for each folder

Please let me know how else I can better anything,

Also please ask if you would like a ADHOC Custom video Short clip made (1min) Saying whatever ā€˜catchy phraseā€™ or you believe will work for a current promotion / idea / set of advertising

Iā€™ve sent the email, but give it 20 minutes, Iā€™ve uploaded 1.6 GB to dropbox just now, everythings about 70% there!

Youā€™l get an update on the Censored Trailer, Youtube Trailer, Stills + Selfies every other day atleast really.

Recommend you go - date - newest as the longer iā€™ve done this the better iā€™ve got at all the little bits and bobs, including making the teaser clips!

Thanks again mate (Let me know you got the email I sent it BCC)
