for adult site i would personally recommend go to social networking sites & promote your adult site on it because most of the users of adult site are less age boys & girls & they are all available on social networking sites like facebook, Orkut, twitter.
Adult Forums.... Adult website advertising......... Making your site SEO..... Adding Good Categories and material to the website. And last but not least my latest invention. Try adding a referral system..... Winner will get a one on one webcam session.
funny everybody is replying to a thread from 2008 to a guy that most probably moved on a looong time ago
Advertising on other Adult websites would be the best option and the traffic will be targeted around males... Also build up networks with local Bars to sell direct services and advertising on your website.
I the master of the adult site Use short videos on tube sites with watermarks few booty videos on dailymotions use tumblr gets me good traffic. also juicyads works well you have to spend time and money to make money in adult
For free? I did this years ago. Create a traffic trading website, then use that traffic to promote yours. I had so much traffic, I sold it to dating websites. No affiliate programs.
you can advertise through sex.com and bitstube.com also link in thumbzilla.com all 3 have great traffic i find.
It really depends on content you use. Reddit and tumblr is good free sources as long you're making community, not just squeez traffic for few days
Upload videos to the major tube sites (pornhub, xvideos, youporn, gotporn, xnxx, etc) and include a link to it... also watermark the videos before uploading them... Reddit and Twitter are also HUGE traffic sources for me...Tumblr for sure as well - but that's getting increasingly shakey since the NSFW ban... There are a ton of new Tumblr Replacements now - newTumbl.com has gotten me a bunch of traffic, there is Pillowfort.io and a zillion more...I could give you a list if you want
People always have asked to promote adult sites without paying their marketing models but unfrankly this way cant bring a good result. So, only promoting in cash may be ad sources building the rank. As for Adult sites, those ad networks seems to be the most popular promoting Adult sites. those also are many forums that more free to promotes links. and you can talk over there more about selling and buying traffic to your website. That all depends on how much time do you want to spend search on the free trial.. I guess the easiest way will be buying traffic for lower cost such using push for promoting, the push referring to commission with networks and they are relatively for users. my list of ad networks for traffic adult are: Pushyads, Exoclick, Traffic junky
There isn't one best way to promote your Adult website! real result should be after using all marketing ways : Email promotion, Social marketing, video channel, referral links and also buying traffic from ads networks sources. there are many websites who use Publisherpick to get all the budget in one ticket
