PrideBucks Raises Payouts For 'Thriving' Gay Market

Gay affiliate program PrideBucks is adding $5 per sale to their webmaster affiliates’ paychecks.

Part of a “Back to Business” marketing campaign, PrideBucks is paying webmasters $30 per sale on 60 percent revenue share. Their Web site has also incorporated a new resource section and offers increased marketing tools.

“PrideBucks has seen a lot of growth this year, in both sales and retention,” said Rainey Stricklin, PrideBucks director of marketing. “We have a solid base of loyal affiliates felt it was only right to share in the rewards of our progress. Affiliates are what make or break pay site owners, and we want ours to know that we appreciate their efforts.”

In fact, Stricklin said the gay affiliate market is in such a state that it’s attracting straight business.

“The gay affiliate market is thriving right now,” she said. “The growth is evident industry-wide. A large number of straight companies that are dipping their toes in gay waters, Internext will feature at least 10 events for the gay market, and online gay communities are growing and expanding rapidly.”

In addition to raising payouts, PrideBucks has also added new hosted picture and movie galleries, along with new free content.

As part of their marketing campaign, PrideBucks will be sending one of its webmaster affiliates to Internext 2005 in Las Vegas. Airfare from the U.S. or Canada, hotel accommodations, and show pass are included.

PrideBucks sites include BoysGoneBad.com, CircleJerkBoys.com, and TrueTwinks.com.
