Why Sex is Epic Win

June 2nd, 2008 | 1 Comment | Posted in Hints and Tips, Life of Slice?, guides, internet

Sexy images, commercials, and even suggestive phrasiology can be the key to a great advertising campaign. Although not always necessary, for most products, you’ll find that when associated with sex, they sell better! It’s my belief that every human being thinks at least a little bit like I do, and when I see an advertisement with a good looking female posing half nude on the internet. I’m probably going to click on the advertisement, even if it’s just to see more.

The Go Daddy Girl

I’m sure that for everyone, one of the most obvious companies that uses sex to appeal to it’s customers is Godaddy. A web hosting company and domain registrar that almost every webmaster is familiar with. Despite the constant foul reviews Godaddy get’s on the internet, I constantly hear of people that use it. The godaddy girl is just so hot, it makes their whole campaign a little more irresistable.

Sure, any company that spends money on commercials is going to get some bonus customers. But, which commercial do you think is going to get the most followers. A professional commercial, with a guy in a suit telling you about all of the positive features of their web hosting company, or a commercial with a smokin’ hot babe telling you to use her web host. I don’t think she even tells you to use godaddy, she just say… Go Daddy.

If that turned any of you onto godaddy, I apologize… don’t use them for your web host or domain registrar. Bluehost is a much better host, and namecheap is by far the best domain registrar. Neither of which have the advantage of sexy advertisements.

Sex doesn’t have to be your advertising campaign in order to get people interested in your website. It could be a simple article, or tidbit of content about sex that leads users on to the rest of your content. For example, this post could be the turning point in vital pixel’s streak of poor-traffic. Of course I have no idea, since the post isn’t published. But, judging by the way things usually play out… I assume it will be.

On the other hand, sex can be your whole advertising campaign, and what your website is about. Sex and Porn and the two top searched terms on the internet. So that tells you what people are interested in. I’m not even going to bother calling them pervs either, everyone has done it.

An photo blog with sexy images on it, is ten times more likely to succeed than a photo blog about fancy cars. I think most people can imagine, that cars are a big market in today’s world. Sexy, nudity, and suggestive art prevail though, and don’t let anyone tell you it doesn’t.

Advertising campaigns for food using lewd videos and commercials is also common. Here is one commercial for burger king in the UK.

Just try incorporating a sexy picture into your website. Use a good looking female spokesperson for your next business. Hooters will be my last examples, probably one of the most successful chain of restaurant’s to ever exist. Why do you think this is so? Because women are just decoration when it comes to marketing, and it works pretty damn well.

Pretty Website

May 26th, 2008 | 1 Comment | Posted in Graphics, internet

A site with all ads isn’t going to do anybody any good. A site with good content, lots of advertisements spammed all over the place, and a horrible design also fails. I made another one of those little comic strip things to illustrate one of those situations… where a dude tries to make a site with nothing but advertisements. Obviously anybody who doesn’t have a reason to make their site is a complete whorebagel, and nothing will come of his site. Even with some financial backing, a site that looks like crap, simply won’t please its visitors.

Gotta have a good looking site

Website design is all about the new web 2.0 graphics, or at least something stimulating to the visual receptors in a visitors brain. I could search for something, get perfect results on a high pr domain, but if the website is an eyesore I’ll probably just look elsewhere. Not very useful, just make sure your site looks good, and preferably better than your competition.

Tips:

  • Avoid old website templates with poor graphics resolution.
  • Make sure to add some color, but keep in a specific color scheme
  • Don’t use table borders (they’re really ugly)
  • Try not to use tables at all
  • Not to many straight lines, square-y appearances are fail.
