According to the association, the ASACP.org website has always been a vital resource; serving as a child pornography (CP) reporting hotline which has since 2003 received over 400,000 reports of suspected CP. In addition, the website has offered parental resources and best practices for the adult industry.
The new ASACP.org website continues to offer these features, but has streamlined its look to increase the ease of navigation.
"When a surfer searches on Google or Yahoo for ways to report suspected child pornography, ASACP.org is usually in the top search results; so we wanted to make it easier and provide a calmer feel for these people, because they are usually upset from being exposed to such horrific images," ASACP CEO Joan Irvine said. "The new site design does this."
"Also, we hope the new site has increased our ability to be an important resource for the adult industry," Irvine offered. "Whether you are new to the industry and want to learn more about our recommended best practices or you are an experienced webmaster and are looking for tips on how to protect your sites — ASACP.org is here for you!"
Founded in 1996, ASACP is a non-profit organization dedicated to eliminating child pornography from the Internet and which also works to help parents prevent children from viewing age-inappropriate material online.
"People always ask how they can support ASACP," Irvine added. "In the past it was only through sponsorship, membership, or by holding a fundraising event. This did not provide a way for the surfer to help."
In response to this, the new site has a prominent "Donate Now" button and a banner farm for webmasters so that companies can add a "Help Protect Children" button and offer their customers the opportunity to help ASACP operate the CP reporting hotline.
"There is also a new section, highlighting our Affinity Program which provides discounted services and products for ASACP members and sponsors," Irvine added.
