mirdumar If it's one of the most viewed categories, why is it so low in "most searched for terms"
From the report... Literally in the first section.
The Searches that Defined 2022
Will65 was SLR not always a Netflix style site with lots of content from other studios? I’ve probably been here for 18 months and it’s always been a site with a huge library of content in that time. I’m guessing that is what most people sign up for (everything under one roof) rather than the very specific thing you mentioned.
As with all things, doing the same type of scenes over and over won’t get you any new subscribers and grow the site. The balance you have to tread is how to attract new people without losing those you already have. If they’re now doing 20 scenes a month, they should be able to mix things up a bit and still release the 3 or 4 scenes a month you want as well as some stuff other people want.
By mix things up though, I don’t mean doing the same vanilla stuff with the same girls just in different formats (passthrough, non-POV). I mean mix up the storylines, mix up the sex acts, mix up the intensity levels, mix up the type of models you shoot with. Let’s have some big tit pornstar types as well as all the flat chested girl next door teen looking models.
BML5768 you got a source for that "3rd most popular in the united states"? everything I'm seeing in datasets it's far from the third most popular. You actually helped make your data worse by showing this as well, brazil culturally being trans oriented is a skew in the data, and if you remove that single country the trans popularity would dramatically fall in rankings. In most data analytics that entire country would be removed on account of large data bias.
Also an idea, if there are 5 studios, why not make them all different and brand them accordingly.
If Alex Nash is your prestige scenes (as most seem to think) call his scenes SLR Nash. If another is passthrough then call their studio SLR In Your House (or something snappier). You could have an SLR Europe, an SLR Milf, an SLR Anal (you knew it was coming!). Instead of just producing the same stuff across 5 studios, make a conscious decision to produce varied content.

That's not my data, lol, its what Pornhub shared in their annual report. Just to clarify, I don't own or run Pornhub and I didn't create that report.

get ready for some intense pushback on that concept. If I could get SLR Multi-Girl/Harem and pay a premium $200/yr knowing I’ll get nothing but one guaranteed Dream Team style scene and three quality bgg or bggg’s every month, and not have to look at all this other stuff believe me I’d do that in a heartbeat — not a second thought. But you have the folks that are interested in lots of variety and all manner of content that will be upset that they now have to pay for all the niches separately. The truth of the matter is someone is always going to find something to bitch about. I’m just hoping the upcoming Sultans Harem nails the genre and I can disappear into that for a couple months and ignore all this other drama filled bullshit.
And this is coming from someone who already paid lifetime. I realize now that the value I got from that one time fee was at its maximum from mid-2021 to mid 2022 once that awful Canon camera came online. Now it is being and seems will be even more diluted by what to me (as someone above put it) is just a bunch of dreck. Is what it is - I’m still pretty happy with the content from that golden period though and continue to revisit it often. The Philip Casting era. I already miss you Philip.
argyle43 I think the idea is to make it easier for SLR subscribers to find what they're looking for, not to separate it out into separate subscriptions. Think CzechVR's Fetish vs Casting vs Intimacy vs Regular scenes. All part of one subscription, but delineated by focus so it's easier to browse your preferences without wading through stuff you weren't interested in.
Definitely putting Passthrough under a separate channel
argyle43 I don’t mean you’d have to pay separately. I just mean they’re now at 20 scenes per month for SLRO and maybe more if 5 teams get up and running. I’m just saying, instead of releasing all 20 scenes under one banner (SLRO) you differentiate and give each team their own label within SLRO. Alex Nash would have own line, whoever is going to be on passthrough duty will have their own line. It would all still be under the SLRO umbrella though. You wouldn’t pay extra.
Mutiny petermc sure that makes sense. I would only ask that the upcoming Originals queue be fixed so it includes everything SLR is releasing. The last two JAV scenes have dropped on the Original schedule but tagging and default filters prevent them from showing up. I happen to like JAV but the off switch keeps triggering so I miss them dropping. There’s only one prominent link to Originals on the front page — why can’t that have scene posters, dates, and channel included in the upcoming queue?
In the past we’ve seen scenes in that queue for weeks and weeks with no committed date. Scenes drop in ahead of it. So when there’s nothing in the queue one hopes the scene they’re most anticipating will suddenly drop, but two Mondays it has been JAV which has a default off-filter attached to the category so it seems nothing dropped. If this queue were consistently kept up to date with scenes that are given a date that is honored, it would go a loooooong way to managing expectations. Of course there will still be those that complain that every scene isn’t matching their tastes, but that is a separate issue.
Mutiny Well, I for one am looking forward to your work.
Like LordCrash said, you can always mix POV & non-POV action. I enjoy watching other people have sex & even being watched by others having sex. Like the Eyes Wide Shut orgy scene where you walk around watching other banging away until you come upon one unoccupied lovely that it's your turn with. Or walk into a club with my partner and she gets stripped and fucked while someone is sitting by me slowly stroking me off but the focus is on the action in front.
Or given your film background you could shoot a (short) film or series in VR with a proper, interesting story line, but with copious amounts of gratuitous nudity and sex. There will be nothing else like it.
It would be a shame if you have 4-5 production teams and they all shot the same thing.
imratore Like the Eyes Wide Shut orgy scene where you walk around watching other banging away until you come upon one unoccupied lovely that it's your turn with.
Coming into a room like that in VR would be a dream come true. Like being the freshman who is introduced in this super filthy high society circle in which everybody has sex with everyone and every girl you come by is eager to fuck with you and to please you...
In the ideal setting such an orgy would include some moving-cam aka "walking" sections for the full fantasy. But with modern techniques you could make them easily skippable for those who might get motion sick that way. Damn, how much I'd love such a scene, one big baccanalia feast with lots of men and women fucking around you. The tech is now almost advanced enough to make you really feel like you're there. I can only imagine such an orgy in 10k VR...

Damn, another great suggestion. Sooooo fucking hot...

You made great harem scenes but when will we finally get proper orgy scenes @doublevr ?
