Nudist: Guide To Our Nudist Magazine

I think we sometimes lose subscriptions because we’re so cheap. Here’s an explanation that may help you understand how we can offer a fully-fledge nudist magazine so reasonably:

Most nudist sites are “gated” using a billing agent (such as CCBILL) , which offer no added incentives for surfers to subscribe (whereas we ally with CyberAge, and their content is available to you at no cost, independent of our own sites). If you purchase a subscription to a CCBILL gated site, you are subscribing to a single site (whereas we offer our nudist magazine, “Casual Home Nudity” and “Mobley’s Review” plus access to CyberAge). Also, that single site usually costs $19.95 per month, where we charge that for a whole year’s access.

Most website owners using CCBILL will offer “affiate programs” to other website owners to promote their site. Typically half to sixty percent of proceeds will go to affiliates if they sell a membership. Hence, half or more of typical subscription income is lost whenever an affiliate captures a sale.

To encourage affiliates to promote their sites, nudist website owners increase their monthly subscription fees to enable them to offer financial incentives to promoters (who typically operate “toplists”, those sites that often feature a hundred links or more, hoping you’ll eventually buy a subscription (or membership) to something.

A site charging $29.95 per month doesn’t necessarily offer more content than a site charging $19.95 per year–the high cost simply covers their marketing expenses, which we don’t have.

A site that copies a lot of our pages, for example, charges the $29.95 per month, but hasn’t updated since February of this year. At any given moment, we can honestly say our latest update occurred twelve hours ago. So go figure.

We will be trying a CCBILL program later this year as an alternative for subscribers. Pricing will be somewhat higher than our current schedule (probably $29.95 per year) to cover increased billing expenses.
