Getting setup to monetize your sites


easyXsites is made to help you make money by taking the hard work out of webmastering and that makes
the first order of business for you, to activate at least one advertiser and one sponsor.
This means that you, via an API key, connect your easyXsites account to your advertiser account. Do not
worry, we cannot delete anything from your PlugRush account or modify it in other ways than add sites and
create widgets for those sites.

Activating the Advertiser Module


Activating the advertiser module is a 3-step process that takes no more than a few minutes, so let us get
started!

Step 1 Main advertiser Signup


Sign up to PlugRush

Step 2 Finding your API Key


Grab your API Key, you find it here and it looks like this:

Step 3 Connecting your API key


Add the e-mail you have registered with PlugRush and the API key to the Advertisers section of easyXsites.
Like this:

and hit save. Now you are ready to create websites!

With easyXsites, you can create adult blogs and tube sites. If you wish to, our system will automatically add
and validate your site with PlugRush, that way you are ready to add widgets from the get go.

The blog system will auto create the widgets for you; you might want to edit these depending on your
preference. Editing PlugRush widgets always has to be done on the PlugRush website. Changes will
automatically appear on our websites if you have already added the code.
The tube system allows you to use multiple advertisers to monetize your traffic, as well as importing videos
from adult sponsors we know converts and pays.
Remember when you add widgets to your tube sites, to style them so they match your tube, this gives a
better experience for the visitor.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU TURN OFF MOBILE REDIRECTS FOR EVERY SITE YOU ADD TO PLUGRUSH!
You risk getting penalized for mobile redirects, so turn it off on a site level as well as on each widget you
create. The site level looks like this:

It is also a good idea to put an alternative URL for you pop-under. A good suggestion is to use another
easyXsites tube here, so you keep the unsold traffic in your own network.

Activating Sponsors
Navigate to the Sponsor page of the easyXsites dashboard.
If you are not already signed up with the sponsor, please do so by clicking the sign up button:

Once you have signed up to the sponsor, go to the sponsor page and navigate to the links section. If the
sponsor is using NATS, make sure you find the UNENCODED links.
Now you hit the blue Configure Sponsor Tracking Code button and enter the part of the ID that you see in
the example:

This part is very important, if you do not enter the right ID, you will not get credit for any sales made and
you will not get paid.
The best way to do it is to find the site we used as an example and compare links, and then grab the ID that
you see where we have written YOUR SPONSOR ID HERE. Paste that part in the Sponsor Code field and hit
Save Sponsor Code.
You are now ready to import sponsor videos into your tube site. You can activate one, many or all sponsors.
The more you activate the more videos you can import.

Creating websites
In this guide, we will show you how to create your own subdomain site.
This is the cheapest option, as it does not require a domain that you own. If you wish to use your own
domain (click here to buy one) the only difference is that instead of hitting New Subdomain Blog (see
below) you click Use My Domain.
Blog and Tube creation works the same way, so we will show you how to create a blog in this case. Now
managing the sites is different and will be shown later on below in the guide.

Site creation
To create your first sub-domain blog:
click on My Blog Sites in the main menu and then on New Subdomain Blog in the right hand corner.
To create your first sub-domain tube:
click on My Tube Sites in the main menu and then on New Subdomain Tube in the right hand corner.
Now you are at the main screen where you need to fill out the data used to create your blog. You need to
fill out the following:

Pick a domain name


The subdomain you wish to use, this is what goes into the URL. Try to use something that matches your site
name and niche. In this example, we will create a blog about hot babes.
Like this:

Choose your site niches


Pick the niches your site represents, please use only niches that matches the content you plan to put on
your site. The reason is that we will match those niches with PlugRush when creating your widgets, but also
in the future we will allow you to auto import content and trade links so these matches your niche.
In this example, we pick Babe.

Adding Meta Tags


Meta tags are another way of explaining what your site is about, this is important since search engines will
match this the content on your site. It is also important since it is used in future features in easyXsites. So
pick tags that represent your sites content.
Tags can be more than one word, but please use only words and no special characters like *%& and so on.
When entering your tags, you separate them by hitting enter like this:

Adding your title and Description


Pick a site title and a description that fits your site. Please use no special characters, words and numbers
only. Match the title to the URL, the tags and the niche for an overall better SEO and user experience.

Like so:

Choose a theme (does not apply for tubesites!)


You simply click the theme you like In this example, we use the default selected theme:

The tube site has a built in theme editor that allows you to customize your own theme, so this step is not
needed when creating tubes.
Now you are ready, hit the big red Create Blog button and wait for the timer to be created. Do not refresh
the page while waiting, it never takes long and it looks like this while waiting:

10

When it is done you should see the following picture:

If you get an error, please copy the error message and create a support ticket to get help. Remember to tell
us what site had the error!
That is it! Now you are ready to get to work on your new tube or blog!
or you can go back and create more sites. Remember that you can create as many sites as you would like.

11

Managing your Tube


To start using your tube site, go to My Tube Sites and click on Tube Tools -> Go To Dashboard. Like this:

When you land on your tube site, you have a number of options. You can work on your tube in any way
that suits you and use this guide as a reference if you get stuck or you can follow us as we walk through
each feature.
You should not be able to do anything wrong or break the system, but as always with software, bugs to
occur, if you see one please submit a detailed bug description to us so we can fix it.
While the default design / layout for your tubesite is fine, you might want to give it a more personal touch.
So go to the manage menu to see all the options for personalizing your tube.
Please note that the layout will not be active until at least one video has been imported-.

Let us go over each section one by one.

Logo and Site Title


On this page, you can change the site title and upload a logo. If the logo is more than 50 px high, it will be
resized by the system, we do recommend that you resize the image before you upload it, as this will keep
the load time of your site low.
If no logo is uploaded, the system will show the site title instead of a logo.
If you upload a logo and want to delete it, just hit the Clear Logo button.
Remember to save any changes you do on the page.

Layout Editor
This is the tool that decides what goes where on the site and the first time you see it, it can be a little
confusing. But once you get to know it, it is very easy to use.
You need to know this:

12

1. There are three page types to edit: the Hompage, the Category/Search Page and the Video Page.
You pick what page you edit via the dropdown at the top of the layout editor:

2. Each widget has to be added to each page. If you add a widget, you cannot edit it but rather you
will have to delete it and recreate it. But you can move it around on the same page as much as you
please.
3. The system works with a drag and drop feature, that means you drag and drop the widgets around.
4. The system auto saves after each widget creation or drag and drop, this usually happens in less
than one second depending on the load on the server and your internet connection.
5. Link widgets displays the same and all links. This is just the way it is.
6. Every widget has to have a title. If you do not give it a title a default (and not very sexy) title will be
used.
Video widgets
A video widget will display videos on the site, you can pick between how to sort the videos and how many
to display in the widget.
All easyXsites are responsive! This means that they will adapt to the screen size of the surfers device.
That is why you cannot say it has to be 3 videos wide and 5 videos high. Only a number, as such:

You can sort by Latest (newest videos), Random, Most Viewed, Highest Rated and Most Discussed. You can
give each widget whatever title you want. So try and sell it to your surfer with the title and describe what
they see in the box.

13

By default, one latest video widget has been added to your site, but you can just delete it and add your
own. Like so:

You can add video widgets to all areas and as many as you would like.
Ad-zone Widgets
There are two types of ad-zone widgets, JavaScript ads and image ads.
JavaScript Advertisements
For security reasons, we operated with an approved advertisers system for JavaScript ads. We do this for
our safety and for yours. We only allow advertisers in easyXsites that are proven and pay their webmasters.
For now, those are:

PlugRush
CrakRevenue
Chaturbate

If you have suggestions for advertisers to integrate or are an advertisement program reading this, you can
always contact us directly on support@easyxsites.com
Please note that before the PlugRush widget added to the JavaScript Ad Widget is visible on the site, you
need to add the PlugRush Integration Library Code under the SEO option!

14

Each widget can hold multiple ads, so you can add a regular advertisement to a widget and the pop-under
or IM code if you wish, like so:

Notice how I added basic html to create better layout for the advertisement? You can use basic tags like
<center> <b> etc.
Image advertisement
This allows you to upload a picture and hyperlink it, it can be a .jpg or a .gif picture. The picture will
automatically resize to match your site layout.
Here is an example:

15

So we have now added one video widget, one javascript widget and one image widget to the site:

Default site widgets


There are two widgets that cannot be edited and are site default: Tags Widget and Link Widget.
You do not have to use these widgets, but you can and you can add as many as you please.

16

Tags widget
The tags widget will show site tags, these are refreshed each time you visit the video import page. If you do
not see any tags, that is because you only did one video import. Visit any of the video import pages (you do
not need to import anything new, just load the page) and the tags are updated. This might seem strange,
but it is done to improve import speed for especially the tube scrapers.
Links widget
The links widget will show the links you add to the site in the manage links editor. You can add multiple link
widgets, but each widget will show the same links.
Let us add one of each widget on the homepage:

We have now gone over all widgets, remember that this was only the homepage there are two more
page templates that you should add widgets to or your site might look a little blank.

The styles editor


Now that you have set the layout of the blog, it is time to really personalize it. This is where the styles
editor comes into play. This editor allows you to change fonts, change font size, change background colour,
change widget colour, change text colour and so on.

17

It works with a click and pick editor that allows you to adjust all colours on the fly. Remember that you
need to save the style before leaving the page. You can also add the colour codes directly if you are an
advanced user.
The styles editor is pretty self-explanatory, it works with a colour slider and a colour picker:

And then it has an example area and an edit area:

If you want to reset your style back to the default style theme simply hit the Reset Styles button

SEO Editor
The SEO option in the Manage menu allows you to perform search engine optimization. This is also where
you can add additional meta tags for verification purposes (like when you add your site to
http://affiliate.redtube.com/) as well as where you add the PlugRush integration library code.

18

PlugRush Code
This is where you add the Integration Library code. You find this by signing into your PlugRush account, go
Publisher->Websites, click on Manage Adzones and grab the pr part of the code. As such:

Then add it to your easyXtubes, as such:

Google Analytics Code


You can use Google Analytics to track you sites visitors and performace, all you need to do is grab your UAXXXXXXX-X code and add it here:

Homepage SEO
You can customize the Homepage SEO with title, description and tags.
Search / Category Pages SEO
You can customize the search and category pages SEO and use a tag like %keywordcatname% to use the
keyword or category name that the surfer is viewing.
Video Page SEO
You can customize the video page SEO with custom texts and the tags:
19

%videoname% to use the video name


%videotags% to use the video tags
Additional Meta Tags
If you added your site to PlugRush, you will see a tag here that the system used to verify you site. You can
add as many tags here as you would like.
Remember to save changes when you are done editing.

Members
This will allow you to delete any surfers that has registered with your tube (if you want to).

Links
The links manager allows you to add links. You can drag and drop the links to display them in the order you
want, the order is top to bottom or left to right depending on where you place your link widget.
Remember, that all links you add here will appear in all link widgets on the site.

Categories
This is where you control the video categories. You can upload an image here that represents your
category, we highly recommend that you add some images as this will heighten the user experience for the
surfer.
Please use PNG images as the system will resize these to match the device viewing your tube site.

Importing & Managing Videos on your Tube


By default when you enter the dashboard of your tube site, you are on the manage video page. But since
no videos are there before you import them, we will go over how to import videos first.
You also cannot see any layout and style changes until you have imported at least one video.
There are two different ways to import videos right now (we are building an internal video database to use
for sponsor videos): the RedTube Importer and the Tube Importer.

Importing Videos from RedTube


RedTube pays you to send them traffic, so at some point you should go and register yourself and your site
here: http://affiliate.redtube.com/
When you add the site, be sure to add the META tag to your own site under Manage -> SEO. Once that is
done you can verify your site with RedTube and you will be credited for all traffic sent there.

20

Single RedTube Video Import


When importing videos, you can either take a single Video ID and import that, the Video ID can be seen on
the URL on RedTube, for example:

You add that to the importer, as such:

And hit Add Video, this lets you review that single video:

You can edit the title, add a description, remove or add tags or spin the title from our word list before you
add it.

21

Importing Multiple RedTube Videos


You can also search for videos and either choose to import them all or pick them one by one. We highly
recommend that you add a custom title and description to all videos you add. This will generate more
traffic for your site and ultimately make you more money.

As you can see, there are a number of setting on that page, but it is pretty straight forward how to do it.

Importing Videos from Sponsors


Before you can import videos from sponsors you have to activate the sponsors on the sponsors page of the
dashboard, this is described above in the section about monetizing your sites.
We assume that you have activated at least one sponsor.
To import sponsor videos, go to the Video Manager and click on Sponsor importer:

Now you are ready to import, first you have to select a sponsor (1). You can only import videos from one
sponsor at a time.

22

Now you select a niche (2), there are 4 overall niches: Straight, Gay, Shemale & Toon. You can import from
all niches for that sponsor if you wish to.
You can now choose to search the sponsor feed for keywords (3). Depending on the number of total videos
in the sponsors video feed, you might not find the keyword you are looking for. Do not worry. You can
always manually view the feed to grab the videos you need or you can just import all the videos.
You can choose to enter a Paysite Link Anchor Text (4). This is a link that is beneath each video, which the
surfer can click, to get to the paysite the video came from.
This link has YOUR join code, so make the link say something you think will get the surfer to click it.
The Max videos to Import counter (5) shows you how many videos are available for that feed or that
particular keyword. In this case we found 3240 videos with blonde girls.

The Video Properties you know from the other importer tools and as always, you must pick a channel in
order to import the videos.
You can now choose to hit Search or Import All. Import All will do just that, import all 3240 videos into
your tube, this should not take more than a few seconds.
If you search, the importer will find and display all the videos as it does with the other importers. From
there you can manually edit each video and import them one by one.

23

Managing Imported Videos


You can edit, delete and publish/un-publish videos from the Tube Dashboard page:

That is it; you are now ready to build your free adult tube site! Soon we will launch the sponsor module
allowing you to import videos from your favorite adult paysite sponsor! Stay tuned!
Oh and this is the site we built during the tutorial:

24

Managing your blog


To start using your blog, go to My Blog Sites. It should now look something like this:

Now click on Blog Tools and then on Go to Dashboard and you will be taken to your blog dashboard. Like
this:

Add a category (or add many)


Before you can publish any posts, please create a category. You can create as many categories as you would
like, but please remember to only use numbers and letters in the name. Categories are good for
categorizing your content and (if used right) for giving a SEO boost.

25

In our example, we will add this category:

Hit Save.

Writing a blog post


You are now ready to write your first blog post. If you wish a picture to how up on the main page of your
blog for your blog post, you should upload a cover photo.
Other than that, you should use a descriptive title (this goes into the URL), some tags that represent what is
in the blog post and pick the date you wish the post to be published And of course write something!
If you have created any galleries (see below) you can add those to your blog post. Here is an example of a
blog post with no gallery attached and no cover image.
Dashboard view:

26

Blog view:

If you use a cover photo, this is how it looks on the blog we highly recommend that you use a cover
photo!

27

28

Adding galleries
Creating galleries for your blog is very easy; first you give it a title. In this case, we called it Brunette Babe
Strips. Once created you are taken to the Manage Galleries page, where you can add images like this:

Now our gallery tool supports drag and drop, so all you need to do is drag all your files to the gallery and hit
start upload. Like this:

Depending on the amount of pictures uploaded and your internet connection speed, this will take some
time. The maximum file size for images are 2 megabyte per image. Therefore, if you try to upload bigger
images the server will delete them and you just wasted your time.
When uploaded you can add it to any existing or new blog post by choosing it in the dropdown. You can
also add it to pages if you want it featured there. A gallery can be shown on multiple pages, but a page can
only show one gallery at a given time.
Here is how you pick it:

29

And here is how it looks in the overview:

30

And the picture seen in the viewer looks like this:

Adding links to your blog


We are well aware that many people are using free hosts to get backlinks and rightly so. Not only do sites
with easyXsites get indexed faster by search engines, they also get more traffic and faster than regular
blogs. Our sites are designed for users to have a great experience and the bounce rate is usually lower than
what you see on most regular blogs but most importantly we are responsive so easyXsites works on all
modern devices.
So go ahead and add as many links as you would like, it is very easy, all you need to do is hit the Manage
links in the blog dashboard menu and then start adding them. By now you probably have figured out how
to use the system
That is it for now. We will update this guide once we release the tube script (very soon!)

31

Frequently Asked Questions


I am using my own domain, what are your NameServers?
ns1.easyxsites.com
ns2.easyxsites.com

I created my site, but when I go to it, I see a bunch of strange MySql errors!
That is because something went wrong during site creation, this rarely happens but when it does, just
delete the site and create it again. If the problem persists, please open a support ticket so we can
investigate.

The images on the category page are not the same size.
Please use .PNG files only, this allows the system to resize the images and it means the size will always
match the surfers device.

Tags are not displaying on my tube site.


Visit the video import page again; this will activate your tags.

I want to learn more about making money as an adult webmaster, do you have more tips?
Please make sure you add the e-mail: support@easyxsites.com to your whitelist in your e-mail program or
check your spam folder often. We have many guides that we send out and our newsletter often has tips
and tricks that can help you.
You can also take a look at the Adult Media Guide website where you can download a free e-book and learn
all the ropes about buying and selling adult media / traffic.

How does easyXsites make money if it is free? Do you steal our traffic?
We will not skim your traffic or steal it in any way! That is a very bad for everyone because surfers does not
like to be redirected, we know that other free hosts does this but we have a different approach to things.
We make money from webmasters using our referral links in the service (so please do use them!).
In other words we only make money if our users (thats you friend) do and that is why we are always open
for feedback, we are just one support ticket away

Is there a limit to the disk space I can use on my sites?


Yes and no. We have a so-called soft limit. If a site goes all crazy, our system will flag it to our operator and
they will look. If the site is, legitimate and of good quality promoting sponsors and advertisers, nothing will
happen. If the site is using its space to promote pirated, illegal or otherwise un-wanted content, it will be
removed from the system. If anything is unclear to you, please read out terms.
In other words, if you make quality sites that the surfers and sponsors will like, the sky is the limit
