With a five-year history and exclusivity as its key mantra, Extreme Paychecks boasts a huge content portfolio. Affiliates can tap a wealth of more than 60 sites, including hardcore sites such as Facial Humiliation, Anal Destruction, and Swallowing Sluts, to fetish sites such as MILF Whore, Pantyhose Teen, Panty Madness, and micro niche and reality sites such as Pregnant Fux and Uniform Tramps.
John Bermudez, Extreme Paychecks.com CEO, adds, “We also offer some of the Web's best converting hardcore/reality sites as well as some of our staple sites that still convert at an amazing level even after five years.”
Recalling his company’s key virtues, Bermudez reveals, “Other Webmaster programs that feature 30, 40, and even amazing numbers like 75 sites in their site portfolio, are missing one thing: exclusive content. Any Webmaster knows exclusive content sells. We have you covered with the hottest exclusive picture and movie content out there.”
The ExtremePaychecks.com affiliate program offers clients a range of earning possibilities. Signup payouts start at up to $40, with 60/40 rev share, a GXB Dialer Solution for processing countries banned by Visa/MasterCard, as well as cascading billing through Epoch/Paycom and CCBill.
Clients can earn up to $40 per signup when sending to console tours, $25 per signup using console-free tours, and $25 per signup using a traffic-back system. Also offered are obligatory bonuses, photos, videos, banners, and hosted galleries and sites.
Bermudez says one of his company’s main strengths is the personalized service it offers affiliates. “The online Adult entertainment industry changes on a daily basis, and with that comes a different need for each affiliate and Webmaster. We are dedicated to ensuring our affiliates and future affiliates have the traffic sources, tools, and additional knowledge to change along with the business, and grow.
“Its not like every affiliate can be treated the same way, and not every promotional tool will work for every Webmaster. If an affiliate needs a special banner size, we have invested the money into our art department to deliver such custom promotional items. If an affiliate feels they need a different mix of free content to promote one of our sites, we do everything in our power to get that affiliate exactly what they need.”
Other features like extreme stats tracking are also a big plus. Extreme Paychecks offerds up-to-the-minute stats tracking with the added functionality of tracking referring URLs. “We held nothing back and went with the best stats package a Webmaster could ever want,” says Bermudez.” This stats-tracking ability allows our Webmasters to target the sites that do best with their traffic, so they aren’t wasting time promoting sites that don't convert for them.”
Another specialty under the Extreme Paychecks banner is free hosted galleries. “We didn't jump on the hosted gallery bandwagon,” Bermudez says. “We weathered the storm, took our time, and tested each of our hosted galleries to make sure they convert before we put them out to our Webmasters. We tweaked an tweaked until each gallery was where we felt it needed to be.” Bermudez believes this is the perfect solution for link list owners.
Other tech virtues of Extreme Paychecks include an extended background in TGP and MGP sites, says Bermudez. “We also built Extreme Paychecks by doing business with some of the largest TGPs and MGPs out there, submitting galleries and purchasing advertising for years from those same sites.”
Promotional tools too are a bragging point. “As we developed our program, and because everyone on the Extreme Paychecks team was a Webmaster long before the days of ExtremePaychecks.com, we understand the importance of having plenty of promo tool options. We have over 500 banners to choose from with new banners being added daily; all shapes, and sizes. We even have designers on staff to handle your custom graphic needs.”
Asked about the future, Bermudez says all looks bright for 2005. “We are excited about many new opportunities that we will be able to offer our affiliates. We will continue to care of our affiliates 100 percent, and offer them every tool they need to succeed and grow in the industry.”
Extreme Paychecks recently released ExtremeBullshit.com, an Adult Webmaster forum for professionals and newcomers. “We wanted an additional outlet for our affiliates to be able to contact us and stay up-to-date on the latest news in regard to the Extreme Paychecks program,” Bermudez said
Other areas for growth in 2005, says Bermudez, will allow the company and its affiliates more traffic opportunities. “Through our growing fleet of TGPs and MGPs, Extreme Paychecks affiliates can look forward to listings which will generate more traffic to their galleries and, in turn, higher profits.”
Meanwhile, Bermudez says two newly released reality/hardcore sites, namely Her First DV and She Got Switched, are converting with “amazing” numbers. “We already have five sites planned and in production due for early release in 2005, which will create a more expanded site portfolio for our affiliates and keep them diversified throughout 2005.”
Asked whether he has formed any particular philosophy about working in the Adult industry, Bermudaz says he believes Adult entertainment has a big role in today’s society. “There are so many different ways that people perceive the world of Adult entertainment. Everyone is willing to watch it or has some sort of curiosity about it in the privacy of their own homes, but in a public forum there are still plenty of people that won't admit its importance.”
“I am very open about my Adult business. The fact is you cannot make everyone happy all of the time, and regardless of how up front and honest you are about something, there will always be a small group of people that will have their personal views and beliefs. I would have to say the only thing that can be difficult is dealing with people that have pre-judged a certain business decision or business type – they have their personal stereotype.”
“Regardless of some of the pitfalls and negative views others outside of this business might have, being involved in this industry has afforded me the opportunity – through a consistent hard work ethic and drive to succeed – to be able to enjoy my life in a way that others can only dream of, and that most will never be able to understand.”
Bermudaz concludes, “I find it important to be up front and available to anyone who has questions about my Adult entertainment business. I made a decision five years ago to become part of this amazing industry; at that time I believe I made a choice to accept whatever negatives and positives that may come along with it.”
