Thursday, Dec 20, 2007    Text size: 
NEW YORK — Imperial Publishing Inc., the company behind adult review sites TheTongue.net and BiReviews.com, has released a new webmaster resource site that puts affiliate programs under the microscope — WebmasterScore.com

The site provides webmasters the opportunity to search, sort and browse programs by a wide variety of objective criteria, such as payouts, processing fees, promotional materials offered and site pricing. The site also offers subjective assessments regarding the quality of a sponsor’s content, the level of support a webmaster can expect to receive from the company backing the sites and detailed text reviews of the programs.

WebmasterScore is operated by Relentless, the same webmaster who runs TheTongue.net. Relentless told XBIZ that his goal for the site is “to help webmasters with traffic match-up with sponsors who have the content and business model best suited to help them monetize it.”

Toward that end, Relentless has structured the site to deliver as much data as possible, and to do so within the context of an intuitive, easy to use interface.

“WebmasterScore allows users to compare the objective details of up to five program reviews side by side on one screen,” Relentless said. “It allows users to save their searches and request email notices any time a new program is added that meets their saved search.”

The site also invites webmasters to chip in their own two cents regarding their experiences with affiliate programs and add their feedback to the data provided by WebmasterScore.

“Users can post comments and scores of their own directly on each review and search for other comments by any user to decide for themselves which comment-makers are trustworthy and which are fanboys or conspiracy theorists,” Relentless said. “It’s about getting the cleanest and best sorted information possible into the hands of webmasters.”

Relentless said that his experience in reviewing adult paysites has been instrumental in creating WebmasterScore and provides a solid basis from which to begin his assessment of each affiliate program.

“Actually WebmasterScore.com is only really possible because of the surfer review sites I have already been operating,” Relentless said. “TheTongue.net and BiReviews.com data is pulled dynamically so that portfolio website scores on each program review are accurate. "Having seen the members area of each website reviewed and [having] written honest reviews of each site for my own review sites and for review sites owned by many others, I can confidentially provide some subjective information about the quality of a program’s sites and realistic expectations regarding things like member retention.”

The idea is not to rank programs in a top-to-bottom fashion, Relentless said, but to pair webmasters with the programs that best suit their needs.

“There is no ‘best’ or ‘worst’ program, but there is a ‘best for you’ program and WebmasterScore aims to help you find it as quickly and easily as possible,” Relentless said. “Subjective information will never be perfect and a member may think a site’s content deserved an 82 instead of a 91, but when a user sees a score of 87 he can be sure it is not a site that deserved a 30.”
