MXM and Playboy Go Hand In Hand!

16.09.2008 / MaXsiM in Just that..., Web Design

I’m very proud to announce the new affiliate-partnership between mxm-studios.com and Playboy!

Yes, i’m talking about the one and only Playboy, the name that says it all. Its fine soft erotic flair fits perfectly well to this blog and i’m excited to see if you will like the new and very cool Page-Peel Banner at the top right corner.

I only needed to flip the positions of the “About”-Box and the Ad on the top of the homepage to make sure the AdSense-Banner would not be wrapped by the Playboy-Peel on small screens.

I like the changed look and think the Playboy Page-Peel makes mxm-studios.com even more interesting ;)

If you are running a cool website as well and are looking for a high-quality affiliate partner let me tell you how easy it is to put a Playboy-Banner onto your site…

How to become a Playboy Webmaster!

It’s totally clear that you have to fulfill a few criterions to become an affiliate partner of Playboy:

  • You must be adult after the law in your country
  • You must run a cool website
  • Your website must not contain hardcore!
  • You must not be a spamming and leaking freak

If you’re running a cool website you probably know how to put one or two lines of simple code into the source of your homepage. There’s no problem about it and can be done in seconds, even if you’re unexperienced.

How to register at Playboy!

Webmasters and Misses just follow this link to PlayboyWebMasters.com and complete the form.

It’s a very short form, only your address (for sending the check) and a valid email (for receiving latest webmaster info) is required - but no phone number or other private stuff!

Confirm the ToS and click the “Go to the next step”-Button at the bottom of the page. That’s all, you can log in!

How to add a Playboy Page-Peel to your site!

Once after you’re inside your account area have a look around. You can actually choose between 7 different sites of the Playboy-Empire. Every single one is just how you expect it to be: High-Quality.

I have chosen “PlayboysStudentBodies.com” for the beginning. Click on “Content/Tools” to open an overview page with all promotional content and links:

Great usability in the webmaster area!

Great usability in Playboy's webmaster area!

You can see in the screenshot that there are many different kinds of Playboy promotion stuff for your website:

Hosted Galleries, Banners, Zipped Photos and Videos (which you need to host on your own webspace), rotating pic and rss-feeds.

What more do you need?

In this case click on “Hosted Page Peels” and on the next page get the piece of code you want. Just copy it into the clipboard (STRG+C or Control+C).

Then you only need to paste the code (STRG+V or Control+V) into the html-code of your homepage. I recommend to put the code in the last line before the </body> tag.

This should be very close to the end of the code and will make sure that the main content of your page still loads first.

If you are running a content management system (CMS) or WordPress, paste the Page-Peel code snippet in the main index template. In WordPress it’s called “Main Index Template (index.php)” and can be found under “Design/Theme Editor”.

Save and test. Ready.

What can i earn as an Playboy affiliate?

I don’t know how well the Playboy Webmaster Program will work for me. Naturally i don’t expect too much from ad-income but who knows. It’s clear that i need to actualize the banners from time to time and make a bit promotion.

But theoretically Playboy pays very very good! You can always choose between 2 ways to bring new members:

  • Be payed for every new sign-up which means 35,- USD Cash.
  • Or get “revenue share” and earn 60% (sixty percent!), again and again, every month as long as a membership exists.

It needs to be tested which method works best. Maybe i can give you an update in a few months, we’ll see…

Again and slowly: How does it work?

  1. Go to PlayboyWebMasters.com and register for free
  2. Grab a banner- and/or link-code and paste it into your website’s html…
  3. Your visitors see the banner and click on it…
  4. If they like it they subscribe for a Playboy-Membership…
  5. Playboy pays you 35,- USD or 60% Revenue, depending on what you have chosen…
  6. When you earned 100,- USD, Playboy sends you a check…

Oh, and because this is the most important i will tell it again: Becoming a Playboy Webmaster doesn’t cost you any money, it’s free!
