How to Find Adult Web Hosting

I’ve realized that, even though I have many links to my recommended adult web hosting providers on iStartaPornSite.com, there are some choices you have to make once you get to these sites that may not make sense to everyone. For instance, you may be asking yourself what adult hosting package should I choose? Or why can’t I do a better domain search on these sites.

If you already know what you’re doing and just want a good adult web hosting provider without doing a whole bunch of searching, just iPage Web Hosting and grab the package that fits your needs. If you want to learn more see below.

Here’s my definitive guide for buying adult web hosting that will fit your needs, budget and anything else you need it to fit!

1. Find a Domain Name

For this, we’re going to use Go Daddy.  We’re not going to buy our domain or hosting here. Just search. These guys have a great domain search tool, but their hosting is terrible AND they don’t offer adult web hosting.

Use the Google Keyword tool to find a number of exact match keywords in your niche. Then export them as text and paste them into the Go Daddy bulk domain tool. This will spit out a number of options for you.

Pick one. and enter it below to see what’s available for you:

Enter Your Domain Idea Below:

#1 GoDaddy.com - Home of the $1.99 domain name






The time for hesitation is over. Pick a domain, copy it and get ready for step 2.

2. Choose Your Web Hosting Company

Armed with our available domain name we’re going to go straight to the web hosting site and buy our hosting. Don’t delay on this step, as you may lose the domain name. I’m not certain, but once you’ve done a search on a domain name it’s possible it could be poached by another party. I’ve seen this happen once.

I recommend 1 hosting company. You can search around the web for others, but you’re not going to find an adult friendly host that’s cheaper than this. They have incredibly quick free support too. Click the link below while holding “ctrl” on your keyboard to open a new tab. (or just right click and press Open in a New Tab)

These guys are both in the US – Illinois and New York.

Here’s where the most questions come in! Here is your answer:

Choose the Basic Plan at the 12 Month Price.

Don’t worry too much about your choice here, you can always upgrade easily so start low and move up if you need to.

4. Enter Your Domain Name

When registering with iPage Web Hosting click the radio button beside “I want to register a new domain name for the website“. Then paste the domain you’ve chosen into the field beside “www.”. Then choose your TLD or domain extension (.com, .net, etc).

5. Confirm your Domain Name

Just  confirm your domain name before proceeding.

6. Customize your Plan

You can select a longer payment term to get a lower monthly rate. You can choose any option, but the 1 year price seems fine to me. Don’t choose any other options. You don’t need anything else at this stage!

7. Enter Your Payment Information.

Enter your payment information and create your new adult web hosting account. That’s it. Your hosting will be set up automatically and you will receive an email with information on how to access cpanel, where you can install word press and start building your pornsite!

Make your Porn Site Mobile Friendly

I read as statistic the other day that went something like this:

Manufacturers of desktop and laptop computers have started shipping less computers because demand is shifting to tablets and other mobile devices.

In fact, more people are surfing the internet using mobile devices than ever before. What does this mean for the lowly porn webmaster? This means that we had better get with the time and start making sure that our visitors can watch our porn on their tablets, PC’s, Smart Phones, smart TV’s  and whatever other devices they want to watch porn on!

How Do I Make My Porn Site Mobile Friendly?

Good question! Most mobile devices these days are capable of displaying non-mobile websites, just at smaller sizes. The problem that we face is that the content that our visitors seek are the movies on our tube sites. These movies, until recently, have been supplied to us in FLV (Flash Video) format. This format is not supported by most mobile devices. Further-more, the player that we use to play our video is also made with flash and chances are that someone on a mobile device can’t see our awesome porn videos!

In order to take advantage of this growing mobile market we need to do two things:

  1. Start getting videos in MP4 video format (rather than FLV)
  2. Use an HTML5 format video player when people try to watch our videos from a mobile device

Get MP4 Porn Content for your Website

I’m busy compiling a list of adult video providers that supply MP4 format videos now. Until I can complete this list, I would recommend checking out one of the following providers.

  • TopBucks – These guys have 24,000 mobile compatible videos in every genre known to man.
  • Fame Dollars – These guys also have 1000’s of MP4 adult videos for you to use. Once yo usign up, click on Hosted Flash Videos, then select the MP4 option under “Format” (instead of FLV)

Use an HTML5 Video Player

This one is a little more complex of a solution. If you have some decent HTML and PHP skills you can integrate a state of the art HTML5 video player into your porn site by doing a little research. But, if you’re unsure, don’t worry! I’ll be releasing an adult tube template for WordPress soon!

Step 5 – Customize your WordPress Install to Serve your Porn Web Site Better!

Now that your have wordpress up and running you can start posting content and building your website. Doing things this way poses 2 problems though:

  1. It’s going to take a lot of work to get enough adult content on the site to make it worth while for visitors to come and stay a while.
  2. Where the hell do I get all this content I need?

Number 2 is actually the biggest of the 2 problems and we’ll solve that next post, but first let’s look at the technology we need to put in place to get 1000’s of videos on your new adult site in only a short period of time.

Adultere Plugin

I did a lot of searching and found some pay plugins and some complete systems for managing a tube type porn site, but then I found one that was in its initial stages and was free to use. I installed it and it does everything I need it to do. In a very short time I had a tube style porno site up and running with 1000’s of videos online!

This is a WordPress plugin and template designed to make mangement of your  affiliate content on your adult site very easy. Take a look at the following links to download and install this plugin on your new site:

  1. Download and installation guide for the Adultere plugin
    1. Please note that the installation guide was formerly at the developer’s site: http://milfhd.com/blog/2011/06/adultere/. It has been recovered from an Internet archive.
  2. Customization guide for your Adultere templates
  3. Demo of what this plugin does for you

Update: The Adultere website is down currently. Until it’s back up you can get it from here.

Once you have it installed try uploading the sample content spreadsheet and see how it works.

Next you need to get some content of your own. See the next post to find out how to get your own library of adult videos for free, using adult affiliate programs!

Step 1: Choose a Name

I’m going to assume two things have happened before this step:

  1. You’ve been thinking about this for some time.
  2. You have an idea about what kind of content you’d like to put on your new adult site.

So with that out of the way we can get right down to the first step: choosing a name for your site. You can’t just pick any old name and slap it on your site. Your name has a number of things that it has to do for you perception wise, marketing wise and also has a bit of a technical restriction you need to consider. So what’s in a name? Here’s the jist:

  1. Be memorable: Your name has to be easy to remember. Guys that bookmark porn sites are few and far between. Most of the time if a guy is surfing through porn sites and finds one he likes, he will have to remember it in order to come back next time. So if you want people to be able to find you again your name must be memorable.
  2. Be Descriptive: Your name should describe, in some small way at least, what people are going to find there. Could be the type of content (adult videos, thumbnail galleries, live webcams) OR the category of content (boobs, anal, straight, gay). This will help people identify your site as being a porn site that they want to visit.
    1. A perfect example is YouJizz.com this site states clearly that there will be YouTube style porn video in just it’s name.
  3. Include Search Terms: Including search terms in your domain can help you get rankings, but don’t sacrifice a good name just to get an extra search term in your name.
  4. Be Available as a Domain Name: You can’t have a domain that’s already taken. And you want the title of your site represented in your domain name (ex. istartapornsite.com). Click here to type in some ideas and see what’s available: Search for your new porn site name on GoDaddy (If you buy today you pay only $5.99 for a .COM)

If you follow these instructions, I have no doubt you’re going to have a name for your new site that is descriptive, easy to remember and available as a domain name in no time!

A top trick that webmasters use is buying domains at auction. If you pick the right one, it will have a If you still can’t think of a name or need a few suggestions, check out some expired domains at GoDaddy Auctions.

There are usually some very interesting domains in here, going for some very good prices!
