Our Advanced tour is optimized for Webkit phones like iPhone, iTouch, Android, Palm Pre and other similar devices. This tour includes an advanced navigation, giving webkit phone users a sleeker design, larger thumbs, but still all the same navigation options. In the event that a non-webkit phone reaches this tour, we redirect them to the default tour.

We got great feedback from the webmasters who participated, and some very valuable information about the adult mobile market was shared. Thanks again to everyone who took part!

For those of you who missed it or would just like to catch it again for a mobile refresher, we have published the webinar in four clips for your viewing pleasure.

There is no 100% full proof method, scripts will either detect a little too little mobile, or could also detect way too much due to the parameters they look for. Not all devices call themselves out as “mobile” and if you look for a parameter too short it could cause too many false positives resulting in certain types of PC traffic being sent to a mobile device.

Our policy for TopbucksMobile is to keep the detection script conservative versus risk anyone’s PC traffic.

Once you have installed Google Analytics, using it to analyze your traffic is pretty straightforward.

For example, to determine the percentage of mobile users hitting your site:log into your Google Analytics account. Then select the site you’re looking to evaluate traffic on, and click on ‘visitors’ in the left hand column. Then select ‘Browser Capabilities. From there, a sub-menu shows up and you click on ‘operating systems.’

Now you can see your statistics and the percentage of surfers coming from different operating systems. If you click into Windows, you can also see the windows Mobile statistics if you look for Windows CE. You will probably notice that this % is pretty minimal like 1 to 2% of your traffic. This may not sound like much, but there are two things to consider here…

First the mobile browsing market for video-capable phones is a rapidly growing market. As with any emerging market, especially those driven by specific technological developments, it’s important for you to get in early to take full advantage of rapid sector growth.

Second, consider the question of whether your standard sites are doing anything to monetize the 1 to 2% of visitors who are arriving at the site via a mobile browser. The short answer is “no, they aren’t.” The vast majority of sites that are not specifically optimized for mobile traffic are difficult to navigate on a mobile device, are image-heavy and therefore slow loading on a mobile device, and do not offer videos that can be played back on most mobile platforms. The signup process alone is cumbersome enough that the bounce rate for mobile traffic hitting a standard pay site’s join page is in excess of 70%.

Now that you have a handle on how to determine the amount of mobile traffic your site has, you can see how important it is to make the most of this traffic. TopBucks Mobile has all the tools you need, and an experienced, mobile-savvy staff that is here to help you take full advantage of this emerging and rapidly expanding market.

One of the simplest and most efficient ways to cultivate your mobile traffic is through use of TopBucks’ mobile redirect script.

Our redirect script is a simple bit of code that you add to your site which automatically detects when a user is visiting your site via a mobile device/browser, and then redirects that user to a URL of your choice. You can use the redirect script to send surfers directly to one of the TopBucks mobile sites, or you can direct them to a screen that offers them the option of continuing on to the website they were originally headed to, or being redirected to a mobile-optimized site.

It is important to note that this script will only apply to mobile users; all other users will continue to access your site as normal, so using the redirect script will not deprive you of any web traffic, or alter at all the experience of surfers using standard web browsers.

For more information on setting up the mobile redirect script, contact your TopBucks account representative.

Market statistics gathered by TopBucks and other content providers indicate that mobile visitors comprise upwards of 5% of visitors to adult sites these days, and quite often the sites they surf simply have nothing to offer mobile porn consumers.

So what’s the easy fix for this problem? The fix that doesn’t require reencoding your content, or even building a mobile-optimized site? For TopBucks webmasters, the answer is very simple indeed:  the TopBucks Mobile Redirect Script.

You can find our redirect script on both TopBucks.com and MobileTopBucks.com, and implementing it is very quick and easy to do.  Clear and simple instructions for using the script are contained in the webmasters’ area of both sites, and once installed on your site, the script will automatically detect mobile users on your site, and redirect them to the TopBucks site of your choice.

And there you have it — a 5 minute solution to a problem that affects as much as 5% of your traffic. Don’t continue to waste the mobile porn traffic hitting your adult sites; redirect them to a site that is built with them in mind… your commission checks will thank you for it.

One of great aspects of advertising TopBucks mobile sites is knowing that you are promoting a well branded product. Our sites have been widely featured in both adult and mainstream publications, both online and offline Examples include CNBC, PCmag, Yahoo News, and Time magazine, to name just a few.

The mainstream attention helps signal to consumers that they are dealing with products offered by an established, professional company, and not some fly-by-night porn pusher who slapped together a few sites in an attempt to take quick advantage of the rapidly growing popularity of mobile porn.

It is our continuing mission to make your life easier as an advertiser, and as part of that onoing effort we have an entire staff dedicated to the branding of our properties, and to providing solid customer support that builds consumer trust and loyalty.

In other words, we are doing a good share of the heavy lifting here — at the end of the day, all you really need to do is get the links up and keep the traffic flowing.
