How to Start and Monetize a Porn Aggregator Site

Porn aggregator sites or porn search engines are websites to look for free porn from around the world. Aggregator sites work like web browsers for porn, where users expect to find specific leads to their searches. The only difference between a general search engine and a porn search engine is that; porn search engines are dedicated to queries of users who are looking for high-quality porn from thousands of websites worldwide.

General search engines will enlist the porn sites which might or might not be relevant to the user. A user has to go through multiple links to find the niche or category of video they are looking for. The process is tedious and might not even yield the results that the user is looking for.

A porn aggregator is a free porn tube. Like RedTube or PornHub have a collection of free porn for their users, a porn aggregator is a collection of videos from many tube sites like PornHub.

Instead of getting videos from only one tube site, aggregator sites show porn videos from 10 to 25 tube sites in a single place. Instead of sourcing content directly and hosting it the way that many free porn tubes do, porn aggregators funnel content from every porn tube they can find. The result is a much faster process and a much vaster collection of videos. And not only that, aggregator sites show you the best and choicest porn videos from multiple tube sites at a single, convenient location.

Users can search for videos for a specific category and get the best videos from multiple tube sites on a single screen. You will see how aggregator sites are set up, how they drive traffic, and how they make money from a porn search engine.

Structure of porn aggregator site revenue model

To be straightforward, an aggregator website makes money from its traffic. As an aggregator site webmaster, you do whatever it is necessary to attract traffic and then adopt strategies to monetize that traffic to generate revenue. We will discuss monetization strategies in detail in the subsequent chapters.

Aggregator websites revenue model

There are four ways in which aggregator websites generate revenue:

• Selling link space
• Affiliate banner ads
• Selling banner ads spot
• Redirecting traffic to websites that pay for click traffic

Selling link space

Any aggregator website can sell link spaces to other adult websites. These link spaces are generally in the header menu or footer menu. Aggregator website owners can sell this space to the highest bidder monthly or yearly and make passive income.

Affiliate banner ads

Any aggregator website can sign up to become an affiliate for many other websites. The website owner can promote other websites like cam sites, sex toys websites, tube sites, health products, adult membership sites, etc., as an affiliate by providing banner ad space on their website. Every time any user clicks on an affiliate banner, your website gets a commission.

Selling banner ad space

As an aggregator website owner, you can sell your banner spaces directly to other websites. It can be the header banner space, the sidebar banner space, or the footer banner space. You can sell these banner spaces and make good money from them.

Redirecting traffic

As an aggregator website, your video repository will consist of thousands of videos from other tube and adult sites. When a user clicks on any video belonging to any tube site on your website, then the user is redirected to the parent tube site. You can set up a deal with such big tube sites and earn a commission whenever a user is directed to their website. This way, you get the revenue, and the tube site gets a user on their platform.

Choosing a niche

A niche is a section of a broader topic defined by its unique identity, needs, and preferences. Before you decide on your niche, you must understand the difference between three very similar ideas: category, niche, and micro-niche.

There is no hard and fast rule of identifying a niche within a broader market. Anything that defines the market based on a unique trait can be termed a niche or micro-niche.

Choosing a niche market means focusing your strategies, products, and services to serve a specific segment of the market rather than the entire market.

Category

A category is the broader segment of the porn market containing a collection of content focused on specific segments yet comprehensive enough to cover N numbers of sub-classifications within it. For example, Amateur Porn is a category.

Niche

Niche is a sub-segment inside a porn category that represents more refined classifications of content within that category. For example, Amateur porn is a category, and Milf amateur porn, and Black amateur porn are Niche inside the amateur porn category.

Micro-niche

Micro-niche or Nano-niche is a further classification inside a Niche that singles out more focused segments. For example, if you focus on the amateur porn Category, you can have Niches like Milf amateur porn and Black amateur porn. However, if you dig deeper into these niches, you can find Micro-Niches such as Big tits milf amateur porn, Big tits black amateur porn, etc.

Micro-niche/Nano-niche in general

Focusing on a Micro-Niche or Nano-Niche means digging a niche as deep as possible to identify a unique market. Let’s understand this with the previous example of the Amateur porn category itself.

The Amatuer porn Category is a larger market for porn, and it can have niches like Ebony Amatuer porn and Latina Amatuer porn. However, digging deep into one of the niches and refining it to focus your strategies on finer markets is possible. That would be a Micro-Niche or
Nano Niche, depending on how deep you dig.

Why do you need a Micro-niche or Nano-niche?

Right now, the porn industry is vast, with millions of porn sites out there. Most of them are giant players. It’s not wise to go eye to eye with the big players unless you have a big budget for marketing.

That’s where you can focus on a Niche, Micro-niche, or Nano-niche to thrive in the market without competing directly with the big players. You can create your unique identity, secure brand recognition within your niche, and make better money.

Niche and Micro-Niches for your Aggregator Business

Porn is a large market. It may consist of categories like – Straight, Gay, Lesbian, Amateur, and
Transgender porn. However, the porn industry is too big to come up with a niche by merely
focusing on these N broader categories. It would be best if you dug even deeper.

Let’s say you choose Amateur Porn, but it’s still not a niche. Amateur Porn is a category with enough demands, but it is still a tough playing field with so many competitors. To stand out, you must dig deeper and continue until you find a niche with enough demands yet lesser competition.

For example, ‘Female Domination’ can be a niche under the ‘Amateur Porn’ category. When you dig further, you can find micro-niches like goddess worship and foot fetishes.

Selecting a Micro-Niche is vital at this stage, too, because your roadmap for the next step, ‘content-sourcing,’ depends on your niche.

Sourcing content for your porn aggregator site

Content for an aggregator website means adult videos that people would love to watch on your website. Choosing a niche is a non-negotiable part of your plan. It will decide the type of content you are going to source and the ways you are going to adopt to source them.

If there is not enough content around your selected niche on the internet, your niche is not in demand, and there is not enough audience for that niche. Hence, investing in a niche without enough audience would be bad. You need to figure out a niche with
ample demand, content, and audience.

Sourcing from Tube Networks NOTE

Tube networks consist of a network of hundreds of tube sites. Tube sites in such a network source videos from each other. For example, Pornhub, RedTube, Tube8, YouPorn, AWEmpire, etc. You can sign up on these networks and pull videos from them that fall under your niche to your website.

Domain name and Hosting server

Adult domain name

If you have not done it already, then the first step would be choosing a domain name suitable for your porn website. You must develop a unique, user-friendly, and industry-friendly domain name that resonates with your brand identity.

You can narrow your inclinations from your chosen niche to primary keywords. Beginning with this step, you can follow some tips to narrow down a perfect domain name:

• It must be easy to remember
• It must be easy to type
• It mustn’t be too long
• It must be easy to pronounce

Besides, also ensure that you are getting the following requirements with your chosen domain name:

• Must be available in the “.com” dominion
• It must signify that it’s a porn website
• Must include your primary keyword
• Social media handles must be available in the original name

Adult web hosting

Adult website hosting requirements are very different from mainstream websites. Adult websites and adult web hosting providers must follow specific laws. That’s why, even if thousands of web hosting brands exist, not all offer services to adult websites.

As we read above, not every web hosting provider allows adult websites. They do this to simplify their business, as managing adult websites and content takes more work. Hence, it would be best to find a dedicated adult web hosting provider for your needs.

• Make sure the hosting provider allows adult content on their servers
• Confirm with their live support agent or call them directly
• Research about the host’s reputation with adult websites
• Make sure they don’t suspend websites for stupid reasons
• Make sure they have minimum server downtime

Porn websites are usually huge, and they get massive website traffic. So, don’t settle for some cheap hosting plan to save a few bucks. Always pick good servers with ample strength to manage a sudden surge in traffic. In addition, it’s a big NO to shared servers.

Buying a readymade porn aggregator script

WordPress templates dominate the readymade script market. You can purchase an aggregator site template and get a ready-made aggregator-like interface. It’s not bad, considering the price point at which they come. However, a WordPress template cannot offer flexibility, monetization channels, traffic handling, user handling, etc.

In case you have some other script in your mind, it is recommended that you make sure if it provides the following essential features, which are present in the xAggregate Script out of the box:

It would help if you had a dedicated turnkey script – a ready-made adult aggregator site script like xAggregate. The very script is readymade and fully customizable to offer you the control you need on your website to run a massive adult aggregator business.
