Sticky. To the average person this word brings up images of messy, gooey things like honey and glue. To the adult webmaster, the word sticky projects a whole other meaning. Come to think of it, so do the
words honey and glue!

"That's the power of a Flash Game on an adult website. That's why Flash Games are always a great choice for paysite content. Sticky. Sticky. Sticky." |
A sticky website is an achievement, not a mess. If your adult site is sticky, that means that you have built a site where surfers stay, come back and even bookmark. You have managed to create a destination that retains a user's interest even after they jerk off to the porn. Stickiness is vitally important to the paysite owner. Site owners need to fill a domain with enough content to merit a fee, but they also want
to retain those members month after month. Site owners want member areas that are more than sexy, they want them sticky.
Paysite operators achieve membership retention though several means. The most common way is to add new content regularly. Another common retention-grabber is to host other types of bonus or filler content. As examples: The coed paysite will host special sub-sites, featuring individual models. The adult classified site will offer a free email account to members. The Swinger's site will host articles and news
stories, covering the Swinger lifestyle. All of these extra features entice surfers to stay, to come back, to join and to keep paying for membership. These are the things that make a site sticky.
Here's something sticky. Flash Games.
First off, computer games are fun. Porn and fun are almost infinitely compatible with each other. I supposed a there are serious porn sites where enjoyment isn't part of the ambiance but that's beside the point.
If there is plenty of room for fun on your adult site, then Flash Games are an excellent way to fill that room.
Second, Flash Games are uncomplicated. Unlike a live chat stream or some dorm room cam feed, Flash games are easy to set up, easy to use and much less stress on bandwidth for both site operator and content provider. Flash games don't require as much brain work on the part of the surfer as does text-based, story porn. With Flash games the user isn't required to download some special media player or reconfigure their browser. Practically all Operating Systems and Browser programs come with the Flash Player pre-installed as a plugin. What's more, Flash doesn't stream. The format pre-loads and then plays and Flash files are famously small in size. Almost any member with any machine can open a Flash Game and begin playing within seconds.
Imagine it this way. Most site members join a porn paysite so they access the good, jerk off material and stop searching for boner relief, image by image, clip by clip. Porn paysites are centered around solid,
ample supplies of sex, sex, sex.
Now, consider that the average porn paysite member is a man. What does a man usually do after he ejaculates? He loses his interest right along with his erection. He either falls asleep or he leaves to visit a
sports site or some other entertainment page. You don't want him to leave. You want him to stay. You want him to realize that your adult site offers much more than three minutes of jerk-off material. Then
again, you don't want to scare him with thinky news reports or deep, existential articles. Yet, you want him to logout with more than just a wet lap and a hand full of goo. A sweet, little five-minute Flash Game
is the perfect way to give your members something to do between boners. In fact, playing online games can make boners happen.
Take for example, the very popular Flash Slide Puzzle Game. Say Joe Customer just finished whacking off to a hot anal sex video on your site. He's about to log off and go clean up when he sees the curve of a fine ass, within the jumbled image pieces of your Flash Slide Puzzle Game. What does he do? Why, he reaches for a tissue, wipe himself off and tries to put together that Flash Puzzle, in the hopes that he can
view that gorgeous butt, fully intact. Before he knows it, he's fully erect and ready to open up another anal video so he can bring himself to himself orgasm, all over again. That's the power of a Flash Game on
an adult website. That's why Flash Games are always a great choice for paysite content. Sticky. Sticky. Sticky.
As more users begin to buy smart phones that surf the web, they're going to be wanting quick, little bits of entertainment that load fast and look good on a tiny screen. Nothing in this world looks better on a
tiny screen than the Flash format. Wireless device manufacturers such as Nokia, Samsung, Sony and Ericsson, have already sold millions of Flash-Enabled cell phones, running either FlashLite or FlashPlayer SDK.
Flash Game providers used to be in very short supply. Today, however, there are all kinds of wonderful companies making this content for adult webmasters as well as webmasters that own mainstream sites. Some of these fine Flash Game content providers are:
