LemmeCheck

Lemme Check! It’s time to talk about an extremely mainstream website that for all intents and purposes could be released as an actual paper magazine if ever the internet got knocked down for more than a day. LemmeCheck is a great newspaper, of sorts, that’s been around in one form or another since the late 90s. Their shtick is that they post free image galleries of recent porn productions with summaries that double as reviews of the content. The galleries are properly explicit, so you’re free to jack off to them at your own discretion, though every gallery leads to the source material so you hopefully follow through and purchase the actual video or get on a subscription where necessary.

It’s not a bad business model if I do say so myself. This website features no actual dynamic ads as far as I can tell and yet it’s completely free to use. The downside is that all of the content on the site is comprised of promotional materials. You can’t enjoy the actual smut in its proper unedited form on this site alone. You have to check out the galleries, get horny as fuck then jump ship to another website where you will inevitably have to spend money in order to get your hands on the content you were promised. So, in that way, this is a free website that is bending over backwards to get you to spend money.

So Many Offers

Boy, do they do a great job at encouraging you to spend money. I swear, 99% of the content on this site is proper bonerific goodness that is sure to awaken even the deadest of men from their slumber. You could bring comatose men back from the brink of death with the content on this site. Granted, you’d just be waking up their dicks, but still, it’s a step in the right direction.

As far as I can tell, all of the actual content on the site is provided by LemmeCheck directly. They most likely have deals with the providing websites, but they write their own descriptions for the content that they share, so it comes off as one part image gallery site and one part newspaper. That’s why I’m kind of going back and forth on the terminology of what this website actually is. It’s hard to sum up in one word. They call themselves a free image gallery site, but they also say that they’re providing daily updates from third-party porn sites, so in that sense they’re also a marketing destination for large scale studios.

Shilling for Third Party Sites

They take it several steps further, mind you, with a ton of incentives to sign up for a porn subscription through them, instead of going straight to the supplier’s website. So, instead of signing up for Blacked.Com by going to Blacked.Com, you’d follow a referral link to that site from this site and get a discount. They naturally get a cut out of this, which allows them to keep paying their fees and the site stays afloat so that people can enjoy the free image galleries. It’s a nice system, albeit a bit antiquated. But it seems to be working just fine for LemmeCheck. They’re making more than enough money to stay relevant and they seem to be getting traffic just fine. As long as it works, it’s not stupid.

They also write some review copy for every single gallery that gets posted on the site and I have to say, I could not care less about any of this written content. I know this might seem a bit ironic, me belittling unnecessary written content when 99% of what I do is bitch and moan about tits on the internet, but I’m just being honest here. This content is completely unnecessary. I’m assuming they’ve got the reviews on here for SEO purposes, but they’re only about 100 words across, I doubt they’re doing much.

They’re just sort of there as decoration above every single gallery and they don’t have much to say beyond just describing, in detail, what you’re already seeing in the pictures below. I’m not kidding, they straight up summarize the scene for you as if you were a blind man and you couldn’t just… use your eyes to see what the fuck is going on. They describe the clothing, the bitch, the action, the whole damn gallery in 100 detailed words, for no fucking reason. At the very least I can say that the written words on here are all very posh and glamorous. As in, they were written by someone who actually speaks English. This whole damn site is a classy affair.

The Offers Don’t Stop Coming

Unfortunately, you can’t spend more than a few seconds on LemmeCheck without being bombarded by offers to sign up to one porn site or another. All the greats in the industry are marketing their content on here, though they don’t all appear on one page. There’s a lot of healthy mixing and matching done to deliver you a huge selection of porn discounts and offers with dedicated pages for lists of discounts in case you want to see what’s on offer.

You can circumvent all of the smut and just dive into the discounts directly if you’d like. Look for the porn discounts section on the home bar and you’ll get a huge list of all the mainstream porn sites that LemmeCheck are in cooperation with. Some of the discounts are real bargain bin deals, others are pretty negligible, but either way, they’re real percentage discounts. It’s affiliate marketing at its finest.

Learning from the Pros

You could learn a lot from how LemmeCheck is doing business, especially if you’d like to perform similar affiliate marketing on your own site. If you want to appeal to the big boys and cover their smut for them and in exchange receive promotional porn packages from them, well, do what LemmeCheck have done with their site. Try to gussy up the place all prim and proper with an elegant feel and look. Also, note that LemmeCheck isn’t running any dynamic ads to pad the site’s overall cashflow.

Plus, the whole site is perfectly static. There are no moving parts. This, combined with the site’s overall innocent layout makes the whole damn place a great place to visit. The site is fast, responsive and it looks and loads great on all kinds of devices. You could definitely use this place as inspiration for your own porn blog if you’re looking to experiment down that avenue.

Shoot Them a Message

On the flip side, you could also consider cooperating with LemmeCheck as one of these many studios have done in the past, given that you actually have a product that they can shill for, that is. If your site charges subscriptions and you’ve got porn packages that you can hand out as promotional materials, then by all means, shoot these guys a message. As long as you’re willing to make them an affiliate offer, I’m sure they’ll take it. That is, if you’re worth their time. They’re unlikely to work with anyone who is struggling to get off the ground, but if your content is hot enough, they might just consider working with you. Either way, you’ve got nothing to lose by asking, right? Shoot them a message and see if they’re open for cooperation.

These kinds of ancient, super successful websites are the bread and butter of porn webmaster successes and you can learn a lot of quality lessons just by analyzing this site’s structure. Make sure you note the quality of the writing across the entire site. I cannot stress this enough. If you’re not a good writer or if English isn’t your strong suit, hire someone who can get the job done right. Proper English writing goes a long way towards giving your site an air of legitimacy. It’s not a guarantee of success, but it is certainly one of the prerequisites. So, don’t sell yourself short. Get a proper writer to do your copy for you. Or, avoid text entirely, if you’re cheap. Don’t have shitty reviews and posts on your site if you can help it.

Beyond that I don’t have much to say about LemmeCheck, considering they’re basically a cookie cutter affiliate marketing blog that is clearly making money from these referrals. The free promotional porn materials are coming in from external sources and they get paid money to promote them. Hell, everyone’s making off like a bandit. The producing studios are grateful for the promotion and LemmeCheck are grateful for any money they make in referral fees. It’s all part of a grander network of cooperating websites that work together like a well-oiled machine. You too could be a part of this business, if you play your cards right.
