Print is dead. Long live the digital word.

Okay. Print isn't really dead. Heaven willing, print will be here as long as we are here. In fact, people are actually using more paper than ever because of computers and desktop publishing software. Folks love to print all kinds of goodies from the convenience of their own homes. However, newspaper, magazine publishers and booksellers are downsizing or closing shop in record numbers. After almost 200 years, Western Union announced they will no longer accept, print and deliver their once-legendary telegrams. The original gangsters of the print medium have been forced to re-think, re-locate and re-deploy on the World Wide Web.

We don't call it print no more, baby. The name is TEXT. DIGITAL TEXT.

Human beings haven't stopped reading. One could surmise that people are (possibly) reading and writing more than ever before since the beginning of civilization. Mankind still appreciates the written word. Only now, we appreciate it on the net.

"When your surfers read text stories, their minds are open. With some skill, you can open their minds and their wallets."

You're on the net. You're trying to make a living from the net. You understand that the product you have chosen - sexual content - is primarily visual. You know that successfully selling online smut is as much about appearance as it is perseverance. Not only do you have to pick the right images, videos and niche; you have to create a layout and design that's visually marketable. Your site has to look good. Your site has to look right. Your site has to look like a winner.

With all you have to do, it's no wonder many of you forget about text. Even worse, some of you throw words on a webpage like an afterthought. You don't check spelling or grammar. You treat the text on your sites as a necessary evil or obligatory legalese. You stick words in willy-nilly and never take the time to realize the folly of your indifference to digital text.

For example, consider the TEXT STORY.

Do you know the rewards awaiting you when you incorporate story content into your adult web site? Did you realize that stories can help you market to your surfers? Have you heard that story content is search-engine friendly and a lot less risky to display than dirty pictures? Were you aware that the surfer that reads a story on your website stays longer on your site than the picture fan? Did you suppose that you could discover a whole new crop of converting visitors if you added a few adult stories to your pages or submitted some story galleries?

Whether you run a paysite, make galleries, avs sites or build free sites, you can always include text stories as part of your plan. Text stories are small in size and light on load time. You can implement text stories as filler or make them the central theme of your web. Are you on the blogging train? You can't go wrong with a blog that offers a new text story or installment once a day. Story content can enhance any site and could be your new method for bringing in the cash.

If you're a free site, AVS or gallery webmaster, imagine as the surfer's eyes scroll down to read a text story. As they take in word, after word, you pepper the page with the occasional text link and strategically placed ad. If you do it right, your surfer will absorb your ads without realizing the marketing behind them. This is deep, psychological hard-sell gold. When your surfers read text stories, their minds are open. With some skill, you can open their minds and their wallets.

As a paysite owner, you promise to provide your members with multiplying amounts of niche-specific content. While there's no shortage of image-based content available to adult paysite operators, sometimes it's difficult to acquire pictures and videos for certain niches. The "Bondage" paysite is going to be harder to update with image content than will the "Sexy Brunette" paysite.

Fortunately, there's a plethora of story content for any niche imaginable. Story content is less troublesome to produce than image-based product. When buying story content, one usually deals with a single producer/provider. When purchasing image content, one must deal with the producer, the models, the crew and the hassle. Stories are forever. Stories don't ask you to take their pictures down. Stories give your members a satisfaction that is lasting.
