12 Tips for Paysite Tour Design

I found these brief notes on paysite tour design while going through one of my digital “scrap boxes” and thought I would share them with you.

I might have taken these notes at one online adult industry design seminar or another – but it was at least several years ago; and I can’t tell you where or when it was or who was speaking… Of course, I might have written them myself; since much of this is what I’ve always done – except being a control freak, I tend to specify font size rather than leave it up to a literal “+1” sizing. Who knows? Just enjoy these tips for what they’re worth:

  • Have one goal per page: to keep users clicking through to the “join” page.

  • Ask for the sale over and over again.

  • Your “next page” and “click here to join” buttons should be beveled graphics.

  • Use MouseOvers to show action.

  • Use “next” buttons on the top and bottom right of each tour page.

  • Have at least one “join” button per page and make sure it stands out.

  • Put text on left, pics on right.

  • Start each page with font size="+1" text.

  • Make sales text catchy and use it to highlight tour pics.

  • Use good pics with the eyes looking at you and keep graphics to a minimum.

  • Make “join” pages simple and to the point; with beveled or radio buttons for links.

  • Provide a brief overview of the pics, videos, special features and bonus materials.

I have some code and a few other goodies in my files that I think some of you would be interested in, so stay tuned for more!

Meet the New Class of Pleasure Purveyors Making Waves

The sexual wellness industry has always evolved in response to cultural shifts, but the current wave of up-and-coming pleasure brands signals something deeper than trend cycles or aesthetic refreshes. These founders aren’t just launching new products; they are reframing what intimacy means, who it is for and how it fits into everyday life. Across supplements, toys, aftercare and even divination decks, a new generation of brands is closing long-ignored gaps — between pleasure and wellness, fantasy and function, science and sensuality, individuality and shared experience.

Guiding Shoppers With Clear Pleasure Education

One of the most valuable skills in pleasure retail isn’t persuasion — it’s translation. Customers often arrive curious but cautious, unsure of terminology, functions or even what questions to ask. The goal isn’t to overwhelm them with specs or explicit details, but to describe product features in a way that feels approachable, relatable and easy to imagine.
