Lion’s Den Launches Mainstream Web Television Network

Network features advertiser-generated content designed around user lifestyle

COLUMBUS, Ohio—(AVN.com) Adult retail giant The Lion’s Den, a wholly owned subsidiary of LD Management, has secured the services of Midwestern advertising agency WCi to launch The Experience Channel, an unprecedented web-based television network featuring advertiser-generated content designed around user lifestyle.

LD Management President Shawn Moran is excited about the new venture, which includes the TV network, website and TV commercials. Moran hopes the campaign will help bring the adult product industry closer to the mainstream by speaking to a broader audience. WCi is an ideal match for the groundbreaking new project, as the agency has long specialized in innovative brand development and direct-to-consumer sales.

Popular brands like KY, Durex and Victoria’s Secret have been taking a more risqué approach to advertising over the past few years, making the idea of sex on TV and in print more acceptable to the general audiences. Meanwhile, the adult product industry has been trending in the opposite direction, marketing toward a middle ground.

For the launch of The Experience Channel, WCi will design and execute a new multi-faceted website with a broad appeal, which will be home to the web-based TV network. LD Management is taking a forward-thinking approach to online marketing with The Experience Channel, incorporating their products into multiple TV shows framed around the consumer’s lifestyle, rather than relying on a few traditional commercials to promote their products. This unique and effective approach to advertising will engage consumers on their terms with a message that speaks specifically to them.

The site itself has many features, including original programming produced by WCi, with a wide variety of themes and intended audiences, plus expert and user-generated blogs. The programming concepts will be based around education, inspiration, entertainment and promotion of the company’s convenient shop-at-home services.

Web commerce has become one of the largest means of retail purchasing, and video content is now the primary reason people use the Internet. LD Management has recognized that online video is also the future of advertising, and The Experience Channel will capitalize on this trend with their inviting and personalized user experience. The website is designed to attract both Internet-savvy consumers, as well as those who have never previously shopped online for adult products.

A primary goal of The Experience Channel project is to be as inclusive as possible, allowing the user to decide how they want to experience the site and network, based on their own comfort level and personal tastes.

To support the early to mid-2012 North American launch of The Experience Channel, WCi will also produce several 30-second television commercials that promote the website and its TV network, each intended to reach a different demographic. Like the web content, the commercials will be playful, casual and tasteful.

The Lion’s Den, established in 1971, is a nationwide leader in affordable, high-quality adult products, dedicated to providing exceptional customer service that is both discreet and respectful. They currently have more than 40 retail locations and a significant online presence.

in July of 2010 is was widely reported that porn star Savanna Gold (aka Natalie Heck) was attacked and left for dead.  Some jack ass trying to rob her slit her throat.  She apparently spent a few months in Spain recovering amidst several false reports of her death.  However today porn star Kerry Louise is saying she is now dead this week although no specific details were given.

The Sun as well as other news sources say that Savannah Gold had put her porn career on hold and went back to the US but she actually filmed quite a few scenes for Bluebird Films at their London studios, one specifically just before the July 2010 attack.

 

[original july 2010 news source] A DAD was caged yesterday for throttling porn star Savannah Gold and slitting her throat.

The busty actress-turned-escort was found naked and pouring with blood after neighbours in South London heard screams.

Married knife maniac Shohidul Islam, 26, had earlier robbed two bookies’ with a fake gun.

He then turned up at blonde Savannah’s home in Lambeth, throttled her with a rope and bashed her with a plant pot. He told cops: “I’m sorry.”

Yorkshire-born Savannah, 26 — real name Natalie Heck — put her “successful” US porn career on hold to return to Britain, the Old Bailey heard.

Islam, of Poplar, East London, admitted wounding with intent and robbery. He was jailed for a minimum of eight years.

Adult escort site ad asks for toy donations

HOUSTON (KTRK) — A toy drive during the holidays — but this one unlike any we’ve ever seen before.  An ad posted on an adult escort website promises more time with the woman in exchange for donations to Toys for Tots.

The phone number attached to that online ad goes right to a woman who has been in trouble with the law before for prostitution. The number I called was advertising a Toys for Tots special.  The person who answered the phone told me that she was, in fact, Robin Jordan — the woman who was arrested earlier this year and convicted last month for operating an Internet-based prostitution operation out of her Fort Bend County home.

Robin Jeanette Jordan was arrested in March, according to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, and convicted just last month for prostitution.  She was given 12 days in jail.  Authorities say she was running her escort service right out of her Pecan Grove home.

She’s out of custody now and is the woman we apparently reached when we dialed the phone number posted along with an online ad for escort services.  The ad currently offers a “Santa’s little helper/Toys for Tots special.”

The site, which shows an undressed woman in provocative poses, wishes you “Happy Holidays” and claims if you pay for one hour of services and bring an unwrapped gift, your second hour will be free.

  “It’s awful, obviously, especially in a neighborhood like this,” said neighbor Jennifer Vontz.

Neighbors in this relatively quiet subdivision say they are not surprised.

“For them to use that just to lure people in, I think that’s just really sad,” said neighbor Valerie Work.

When contacted, Toys for Tots knew nothing of these ads.

Brian Murray, Vice President of Marine Toys for Tots, told me, “We don’t want to associate with any person who would besmirch the reputation of the US Marine Corps … or the Toys for Tots organization.”

Murray says every year people claim to be affiliated with Toys for Tots, when they are not, profiting from the organization’s goodwill and charity which they offer needy children.

Jordan would not confirm she placed the ads, but by phone earlier told me she would meet for us to hear her side of the story.  Jordan never returned calls when we repeatedly tried to contact her this afternoon, nor did anyone wish to comment at her Pecan Grove home.

The Houston Police Department has launched an additional investigation, based on the evidence we have submitted to them.

We’ve learned Jordan faces a charge of child endangerment in Fort Bend County.  Child Protective Services is also attempting to terminate her parental rights based on this case and the way she allegedly treated her three-year-old daughter.

Bust on set of Girls Gone Wild

Girls Gone Wild Set Busted for Shooting Without Permit

(AVN.com) HOLLYWOOD—Let this be a cautionary tale to all adult producers who fail to get permits before shooting in non-studio locations: The police will bust you if neighbors complain.

That’s just what happened to an unidentified photographer who was holding a Girls Gone Wild (GGW) photo shoot yesterday at a private home on Vulcan Drive in the Hollywood Hills—reportedly the site of many non-permitted shoots, both mainstream and adult, but it took the complaints of several neighbors before police responded to conduct what they described as a “film permit investigation,” according to a report on TMZ.com.

While it’s unknown whether GGW owner Joe Francis was present at the “crime scene,” a GGW representative told TMZ that there were about a dozen staffers at the location, and the Los Angeles Times reported that possibly as many as 20 others were also present doing what one complaining neighbor described as “strange activity” in the back yard. The GGW staffer said that the crew was at the home shooting footage for GGW’s “Search for the Hottest Girl in America.”

But according to the police, someone had leased the house from its owner, and was engaged in the business of renting it out to filming crews without bothering to check whether they had shooting permits. And while the raiders issued the GGW rep a ticket for the misdemeanor charge of “commercial filming without a permit,” TMZ reported that its sources inside the police department stated that GGW had not been particularly targeted, but that they were seeking the home’s lessee for questioning, and that the police had been to that same location “multiple times over the last year.”

“It doesn’t matter if you’re Girls Gone Wild or Cecil B. DeMille,” said LAPD Cmdr. Andy Smith, “you need a permit to film.”

As adult producers know, it’s common, when police raid a shooting location, for them to seize whatever footage has been shot, but there is no report on that happening in this instance.

The Hottest 100 Women of All Time?

Posted on by

What do Sasha Grey, Cindy Crawford, Denise Richards, Marilyn Monroe and Jenna Jameson have in common?  They were all on the top 100 hottest woman of all time list by Men’s Health magazine [source].  Sasha Grey and Jenna Jameson are the only two porn stars who made the list.  Actually come to think of it, I can’t believe they actually put not one, but two porn stars on the hottest 100 women of all time list!

85. Sasha Grey

Sure, Jenna Jameson is a household name, and other San Fernando Valley starlets occasionally pop up in mainstream Hollywood productions, but Sasha Grey may be the first true star to cross over from the realm of porn. Her darkly sultry (and silicone-free) looks fall comfortably between girl-next-door and girl-on-the-stripper-pole. And while Grey’s recurring role as herself on HBO’s Entourage wasn’t exactly a stretch, her turn as a high-end prostitute in Steven Soderberg’s The Girlfriend Experience earned generous praise from critics like Roger Ebert. Who says Hollywood can’t respect an actress who has sex on camera?

49. Jenna Jameson

It’d be easy to write off Jenna Jameson as nothing more than a porn queen who had her moment. Look closely (we know it won’t be difficult), however, and you’ll realize the platinum-blonde adult entertainer has a remarkable amount of business savvy for somebody who earned most of her living in flagrante. Want proof? In 2000, near the height of the dot-com boom, Jameson founded ClubJenna, an X-rated video service that shot and produced its own material. The success of that venture made Jameson a millionaire. She’s also hosted a reality show on Playboy TV, made a cameo on Family Guy, and wrote a best-selling memoir, 2004’s How to Make Love Like a Porn Star. We’re still waiting on the adaptation, Hollywood.

The top 10 list includes …

  1. Jennifer Aniston
  2. Raquel Welch
  3. Marilyn Monroe
  4. Britney Spears
  5. Madonna
  6. Ursula Andress
  7. Bettie Page
  8. Pamela Anderson
  9. Jane Fonda
  10. Angelina Jolie

Did Playboy get what it deserved with Lindsey Lohan theft?

Posted on by

So does nobody besides me find it amazingly ironic that they are pissed about their Lindsey Lohan issue being stolen when they just signed a deal with Manwin?

For those that don’t get the joke let me explain … Manwin owns 5 of the world’s largest illegal tube sites including YouPorn.com and PornHub.com.  They made millions of dollars stealing movies from other studios and then took that money they made by stealing content from others to build their ever-growing porn empire.

So Playboy decides to then hand over control of all of the Playboy websites and Playboy TV to these guys and then has the nerve to bitch when someone like them steals their precious magazine? LOL Fucking morons.

What are you trying to say, Playboy?  It’s okay if Manwin stole from everyone else, just as long as it doesn’t happen to you.  Right?

HOW LOUDLY CAN WE SAY FUCK YOU PLAYBOY YOU GOT WHAT YOU DESERVED?

Theft is never okay Playboy.  Now you know how we all feel when we find OUR movies on Manwin’s illegal tube sites.  We don’t like to have our shit stolen any more than you do.  So why then do you continue to associate and do business with a company who does such things?

PLAYBOY YOU ARE ALLOWING SUCH ILLEGAL THEFTS TO TAKE PLACE BY CONTINUING TO DO BUSINESS WITH MANWIN! SHAME ON YOU PLAYBOY

Every time I find one of my movies on their illegal tube sites, I curse you, Playboy, for associating yourself with them.  Just keep that in mind next time you want to bitch about someone stealing your shit.

YOU chose to get in bed with thieves.  YOU made that decision.  As long as your company continues to throw your weight and support behind such thieves, then how can you really bitch when they steal from you?

SHAME ON YOU PLAYBOY

 

 

 

Google Me This … Facebook Me That

To a website owner there is nothing more valuable than that sweet ass search engine traffic.  It’s free and it is highly focused.  So if someone wants to find blue shoes with pink toe nails, they google that and find your site.  That is as specific as it gets.  If the site in question actually provides the end user with what they searched for then you can pretty much bet that traffic will convert at insane rates.

Website owners report that tube traffic converts for them at rates of 1:2500 to 1:30,000.  While search engine traffic converts to sales at rates as low as 1:25 and 1:300.  So what this means is, if a tube site sends you traffic you’ll make 1 sale for every 2500 to 30,000 people.  If a search engine sends you traffic you will make on average 1 sale for every 25 to 300 people.

So that is why so many people want that all to sexy search engine traffic.  So what is the most searched for word in the world?

According to an article posted on the site Factoidz [source], the most searched for word in the world isn’t sex related at all, like one might think.  Nope.  In fact it turns out the single most Google’d word is FACEBOOK!  2,060,000,000 a month, which works out to be about 25 billion times a year just in Google alone, people search the word Facebook.

Porn has a globally monthly search volume of 277,000,000, sex has a slightly higher search volume of 338,000,000 a month.  That means that each year on Google alone about 2.724.000.000 – that’s over 2 billion, almost 3 billion times a year someone search for the word porn and over 4 billion times a year (4,056,000,000) someone is out there searching for the word sex.

 

 

That’s one long court case!
