How many people Google’d You Today?

Companies pay search engines like Google money to advertise every time people like me and you search for specific keywords.  The more people per month search a specific keyword or keyword phrase, the more money Google and other search engines can charge that company for that ad.

The interesting part of that whole dynamic is that is also gives us a unique insight into the popularity of your favorite porn stars.   Sites like Fame Registry use this data to help determine the overall popularity of your favorite stars.

So I decided to take a closer look today at the number of searches for some of your favorite stars.  Just curious really how many people really do Google them.  I grabbed some porn stars names which are some of the better known porn stars.   These are all stars we kn ow and love but which of them gets Googled the most?

  • Sunny Leone  – 5,000,000
  • Jesse Jane – 1,220,000
  • Jenna Jameson – 1,220,000
  • Bree Olson – 1,000,000
  • Jenna Haze – 673,000
  • Nikki Benz – 673,000
  • Riley Steele – 450,000
  • Gemma Massey – 246,000
  • Jessica Drake – 201,000

Sunny Leone has been heating up the search engines lately with all of her new found fame over in India.  Between her appearance on the reality show Big Brother, her being cast in I think 2 or maybe 3 mainstream movies over in Bollywood and not one but two different endorsement deals, including one for a cell company over there, you can see why she has so many fans searching their hearts out to find everything they can about her.

Much to my surprise Jesse Jane gets Google’d just as much as Jenna Jameson did … well at least last month.  I’m sure after the whole Jenna Jameson DUI thing her numbers next month will be much higher but at least for now she’s about on part with Jesse Jane.

Next we have the Goddess herself, Bree Olson.  Despite having been out of the media circus for awhile now, she still gets an impressive number of searches each day.

Jenna Haze who has recently dropped in the rankings over at Fame Registry but still ranks very high in overall popularity and is on par in searches with Nikki Benz who was last year’s Penthouse Pet of the Year.

Riley Steele comes in below them with an impressive 450,000 searches a month and below that is British porn sensation Gemma Massey.  Both of them are really the newest performers on the list.  While all the others have years of experience on them, these two young starlets are holding their own with the best of them.

And below all of them is Wicked Contract girl Jessica Drake.  Considering how long she has been with them I’ve very surprised at how low her numbers are.  She’s below Madelyn Marie (who has 301,000 searches last month) who hasn’t been in a single movie or adult promotional event in what … like two years now?  It’s nothing personal … just seems a little off to me.  I just don’t know why her numbers are so low.

So now you know how the top stars rank each month, at least in terms of how many times each day someone goes out there and Google’s them.  Jesse Jane coming in line with Jenna Jameson is a very impressive feat.  A huge congrats to her and all the other stars on the list!  They’ve all done an amazing job at keeping their fans busy wanting more and more of them, which is what gets them Google’d in the first place.

 

 

 

Move over Jenna there is a new porn queen in town!

Sunny Leone Nabs #1 Spot at Fame Registry

For the first time Sunny Leone takes the number one position at porn star ranking site Fame Registry, which is no doubt in large part to the work she has been doing in India.  Recently Sunny Leone was cast in the reality TV show Big Boss, which is one of the most popular reality shows in India which follows the Big Brother format.  She was also cast in a mainstream Bollywood movie which she is currently in India filming.  Prior to this months Fame Registry rankings, Jenna Haze has held the #1 spot for some time.   With Jenna’s recent retirement announcement it will be interesting to see if she is able to regain the number one position or continues to drop down the popularity list in the coming months.

Fame Registry is a Who’s Who of famous porn stars.  Every month Fame Registry ranks the top porn stars in the world using real scientific, traceable data and the top 10 most popular porn stars for this month are ….

The primary forms of measure include who people are looking for when they search for porn stars using major search engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing, Dogpile and Metacrawler. In addition we factor in the popularity of a porn star’s official website, specifically based on total traffic to the site itself and their number of followers and friends a porn star may have on popular social networking sites like Twitter and MySpace.  The popularity rankings are updated once a month which can be seen online at http://www.FameRegistry.com.

 

Porn Hackers Strike Again

A few weeks ago news broke that Manwin’s sites have been compromised and tens of thousands of customers information may have been compromised.  This hack included the Brazzers’s forums.  Anyone who had an account there had their information compromised.  While they were busy backtracking claiming the hack was no big deal they apparently forgot to sure up the security on their other assets because on February 23rd YouPorn got hacked [source] which compromised an estimated 1 million accounts and the hackers even posted the list of YouPorn users and their email addresses.

This is a big deal for a few reasons …

  • First and foremost it directly links you to a site that illegal streams stolen porn which means that could potentially be used against you in those “John Doe Lawsuits” which could cost you hundreds or even a few thousands of dollars, depending on how active int he youporn site you were.
  • Next it’s a big deal because the hackers posted every users email address and that means every jack ass spammer out there has taken that list and put it in their database.  Now you are going to start getting way more spam.
  • Now people know you are into porn.  If you have enemies and are in a situation that viewing porn online could compromise you, well … an enemy could use that list against you.
  • And last but surely not least, it’s a big deal because more often than not people use the same email address and password for multiple sites so if they stole them for one site, they may now have access to your other accounts like paypal and amazon and whatnot.  So BE SURE AND CHANGE ALL YOUR PASSWORDS IMMEDIATELY!

So now it seems the hackers have struck another Manwin owned site again.  Manwin (aka Brazzers) recently took control of Digital Playground including their family of websites and what they apparently forgot to do is make sure security was strong, especially after the their other sites started to get hacked.

So tonight Jesse Jane tweeted about her site being down, it’s been down over an hour now and her site isn’t alone.  The main Digital Playground site is down as well.

 

There is no official news who has hacked the site yet or what information (if any) will be exposed for the Digital Playground customers but since their DVD store was also hacked, it could potentially be a very big deal, including the loss of username and passwords as well as email addresses and credit card numbers and maybe (possibly) your home address!

 

The dot XXX people using Jesse Jane to pimp their shit

I can remember the time I heard the story about the porn star who tried to register her trademarked name with .xxx and was told she couldn’t.  It was considered a premium domain name that would soon be up for auction and she would have to try and win it.  It was that day I knew the people who ran .xxx were pieces of shit.

Today they take it one step further.

They specifically are making use of trademarked names like Jesse Jane and Riley Steele to promote the dot xxx services.  These domain names were being forwarded to a promotion to use the .xxx services.

Type in any random domain name like blahlhlh.xxx and you get nothing.  So it’s a clear and calculated attempt to profit from their trademarked names.

They have done the same with mikesouth.xxx

Of course all of this came to light when it was revealed xbiz.xxx has been sold to someone else despite the fact that xbiz.com actually owns the XBIZ trademark and has since April of 2006.

ICM has been a member of the XBIZ.net site for awhile now has yet to make a comment.

The owner of XBIZ will only say that domain name has been cyberquatted and that they won’t accept money for advertising from .xxx nor anyone promoting .xxx domain names for sale.

 

 

 

Manwin Buys DP for rumored $50 Million

Everything you are reading here should be considered a rumor – as in an unproven fact.  These rumors may or may not be true, in part or in whole.  You should never consider a rumor as a fact.  What you read here may be in part true, or in whole completely false.  That’s the thing about rumors, you never really know.  I am only sharing with you water cooler stories I have been hearing.  They may or may not be true.  THEY ARE RUMORS.

Last June we reported that Manwin was in talks to buy Digital Playground.  Truth be told, by the time we had posted that story they had been in talks for awhile and had already started to take over the day to day operations of the DP family of websites.

It would take another two months however before the buyout would take place.  It took so long because according to rumors DP was over valuing their catalog.  Well, at least in the eyes of the buyers.

It was during this time Jesse Jane had decided not to renew her contract with Digital Playground and made a very public to do about it.   Jesse Jane’s people went into talks with several other companies including taking a meeting with Brazzers.  Just days later she announced she had resigned with Digital Playground.  Insiders are now saying it was actually a deal with Manwin that Jesse Jane did her new deal with because at that time they had already secretly bought out the company.  So the insinuation that the contract girls would be cast aside after AEE in Vegas, is ridiculous.

Mike South and Adult FYI are reporting buyout sum was $50 million but I have a source that says that number is very wrong.  It includes a large up front cash payment that is nearly double that and over the next five years additional payments will be made.  He doesn’t know an exact amount but estimates it to be around $150 million over a period of 5 years.

The rumor is now that Manwin is in talks with Vivid.  My sources are saying these talks have been going on for a few months now and are all but a done deal.  One Vivid insider says that Hirsch made his money off of some big Playboy deal a few years ago and since then he just doesn’t give a fuck. He’s been looking for an excuse to leave porn since then anyway.

Another insider is saying that the Vivid deal will not include a continuation of the Axel Braun contract.  According to a few different people he is to hard to work with.  “Not worth the bullshit that comes with working with him”.    “His ego an antics make him to much of a liability“.

So who does that leave us with?  If Manwin buys Vivid that means they control all the major studios except Bluebird Films.  Think about it …… there is Wicked Pictures, Vivid Entertainment, Digital Playground and Bluebird Films.  They are the big 4 in the jizz biz, making the big budget features.

Will Bluebird Films cave and join the other major studios?  My sources say “not in a million fucking years”.  Owner Paul Chaplin was once quoted as saying he was never in the porn business to make money, he makes the movies he wants to watch.  Perhaps that will be the one thing that keeps Manwin at bay.  We shall see.

In the mean time we have a few other Manwin rumors to address.  Not to long ago there were reports that Zero Tolerance were in “financial dire straights” that the only thing making them any sort of money was their toy line but with their venture with the now bankrupt Store Program ended, things took a turn for the worse, even in that division of the company.  This made them prime for takeover by Manwin.  While to date Manwin hasn’t really made any move on the lower tier “gonzo type studios” like Zero Tolerance, Red Light District, Elegant Angel, etc. because Zero Tolerance is considered to be the best in that category there was always the chance that Manwin would consider it but my sources are saying to date that is not the case.  They would rather just freeze out the smaller guys and let them go out of business than waste their money and resources on trying to acquire them.

One Brazzers insider said that Manwin might have considered Zero Tolerance a little more seriously if their collection of websites weren’t run so piss poorly.  I don’t know how much if any of that is true, but that is what I am hearing.

Next I heard a rumor about Manwin in talks to buy out a network company like Webquest.  I talked to my source who said “Webquest? LOL  Why would Manwin buy them?  They have no real value.  They are only worth the value of their biggest contract which they could lose at any time.  Then what would they be worth?”

So if they aren’t going to go after traffic networks, I wonder what they will focus on buying next?  AVN?  Maybe XBIZ?

October 11, 2011 — VAN NUYS, Calif. — Digital Playground’s “knock-out”, Jesse Jane® continues to prove that she is the most demanded adult star in the world, with her presence on the cover of the October 2011 issue of Suite 23 Magazine.  The issue features a 10-page pictorial shot by Digital Playground founder Joone.

Meet Jesse Jane

Jesse Jane is arguably one of the most famous porn stars in the world.  She started her career at Digital Playground, the only company she has ever worked for.  For years they enjoyed a great relationship that is until this year.   Jesse Jane tweeted about her intentions of signing another 5 year contract with DP this year.  But within a few months that had all changed.  It seems DP forgot they built the entire success of their company off of a single performer and now they were risking losing that performer to another company because they weren’t treating her with the respect she felt she deserved.

Many would say that on the back of Jesse Jane alone, Digital Playground was transformed into another wanna be start-up to a true empire.  It would be rather easy to see why so many people think that, as Jesse Jane was their main contract star and every major movie and marketing campaign for Digital Playground all revolved around Jesse Jane.  So if they’ve staked their entire company image on a single performer, like KFC has with Colonel Sanders …. why the hell would you go out of your way to piss her off?

What we know for sure is that Jesse Jane made her last movie for Digital Playground the other day.  We also know that Jesse Jane’s name is owned as a legal trademark by Digital Playground.  The rumor was, until recently, that Jesse Jane would continue on as Cindy Taylor, her birth given name when she leaves Digital Playground, however Lukeisback is reporting that won’t be an issue anymore because Jesse Jane legally changed her name to Jesse Jane [source].

Kira Kener did this years ago when she left her contract with Vivid and it played a big part in her ability to get control over the Kira Kener trademark.

Many are speculating that Jesse Jane will have similar success with the courts as well.  But it will also probably cost her a lot of money to fight.  Digital Playground has been known to purposely try and drag out legal battles to try and make it to costly for the other party to afford.  Rumor is however that Jesse Jane is ready for the long haul and won’t just give up and walk away.

We know that Jesse Jane is in talks with many companies about what she is going to do after leaving Digital Playground.  One rumor was that she was going to start her own line of movies, like Jenna Jameson did with Club Jenna.  The most recent rumor is that she is going under contract with Manwin, who has recently been in talks to buy Digital Playground, although the rumor is that those talks have failed, that the owners of Digital Playground want more money than what the market considered to be “fair value” for their products.

So is the Jesse Jane going to Manwin rumor true?  We don’t know yet.  The only source so far to go on record saying it is true is Mike South.  But so far he’s only right about 25% of the time.  But still he has hit it more than a few times so it is worth considering the rumor as possibly true.

 

 

XCritic Bitch Slaps Digital Playground

I think it’s probably not a surprise to many that I love Jesse Jane and Riley Steele. I think they are probably two of the most beautiful people in the adult business so when I seen Xcritic posted a new review about them, I couldn’t wait to read it. Imagine my surprise when they rated the movie 2 out of 5 stars and then recommend readers not even bothering buying it.

My first thing is wow, DP must have really dropped the ball in production values here to make a movie THAT bad. I mean hell Bill Fisher and the likes have made some horrible movies. One time he hired a hooker for $50 off of the street and filmed the nasty girl and xcritic rated that movie higher than this one.

So I had to read the summary just to see what was so bad about this movie that it got such a horrible rating.

Turns out the answer was that the reviewer felt the girls were to skinny and the sex was to aggressive to them …. in a movie named Power Fuck : Fast and Furious – which in the title implies it is aggressive sex. So to punish a movie for being the type of sex of the genre is just ridiculous. I was like wow, the reviewer trashed a movie about aggressive sex, for having aggressive sex. That totally makes sense!

I’ve read more than a few reviews at xcritic and one time I read “the sex was great but …”. I was like wait …. what? There is no but. This is porn. Really does ANYTHING beyond great sex matter? Do you really care if a girl wears pink or black or you would rather her be in a more natural setting? -rolls eyes-

So at this point I couldn’t help but get a chuckle. Not because of what I was reading, but instead because at that exact moment I was on a conference call with a client who decided not to advertise with xcritic. While xcritic hasn’t given any bad reviews for this client, they have been trashing many others lately and in some cases for no apparent reason. I mentioned this review, where they advised their visitors not to buy this movie because the girls were to skinny and the sex was to aggressive in a film that was about aggressive sex and that was that. It seems the theory is, if they are so quick to turn on other companies for no apparent reason, who is to say they won’t do the same to us later on down the line?

In the end, I’m not going to tell other people who I don’t know how to run their business but I will say in today’s economy with ad rates going down the tubes, is it really a good idea to allow your reviewers to post reviews unchecked?

I’m not trying to imply that you can’t post honest reviews, if the movie is bad, then I get it. But after reading that review and more than a few more, it seems like to me, sometimes the reviewer sounds a little jaded by their years of watching far far to many movies. Their jaded bitterness is now affecting your bottom line.

So I guess the question really is, who did someone at Digital Playground piss off to get a review like that?
