Content management systems, or CMS’s are the backbone of all websites. The well-known open-source content management system WordPress is the foundation of the Adult Business Consulting website.
In this blog post, we go over what we’ve learned about the top content management systems for adult websites. The providers featured in this blog are experts in adult content of all kinds, including adult e-commerce and nude art photography. The site also offers hosted builds on open-source CMS systems.
A major player in the adult entertainment industry, this supplier of unique content management system solutions may be found at ElevatedX.com. The ElevatedX CMS is used by high-end adult film studios and the pay sites for numerous imprints to host and distribute their content online. Among the more than 2,000 adult websites that use ElevatedX and the company’s numerous products for producers and content creators are studios like Grooby, Penthouse, and CockyBoys.com. The ELX Complete, which was made especially for content creators, uses an 80/20 split revenue model for those who want to build their own content membership websites.
Another company that offers customized content management system solutions is StagCMS.com. The primary goal of Stag seems to be to provide independent studios and content creators with a turnkey CMS solution. StagCMS offers several features that can help webmasters in their efforts to monetize and distribute material to their fans in the most efficient and straightforward manner imaginable, much like the more well-known ElevatedX. The StagCMS platform’s pricing ranges from $199 per month for unlimited site creations to custom rates for huge volumes of traffic. Compared to ELX Complete or ModelCentro, StagCMS licenses are somewhat more expensive for independent, part-time creators, but they include all tools and content, including protocols for clip storage and payments.
An all-in-one hosted content management system alternative to ModelCentro is AdultMemberSites.com. To maximize potential earnings from users and fans, adult content makers can build their own membership sites with a range of engagement and monetization methods. In addition to offering site-specific live streaming and branding choices, AdultMemberSites offers a proprietary messaging platform to monetize premium sexting and content sharing between creators and their fans. AdultMemberSites, which promotes itself as the platform that allows creators to “own your own brand,” is a very well-built platform for those who have no prior knowledge of the web or technology and are just looking for a place to host all their content and fan interactions without having to rely on social networks like OnlyFans, LoyalFans, or ExclusvLife.
Provider of content management systems, AdultSiteRunner.com focuses significantly on the gay porn market. Gay studio and imprint websites like PlayDaddy.com and NaturalBornBreeders.com make up most of the websites that the company uses as examples of the tech and creative expertise of its platform. Websites using AdultSiteRunner also feature straight and other types of specialized porn. The platform is a complete cloud solution with choices for marketing, design, and monetization. A one-click downloading technique is also provided by the CMS for membership sites that offer scenes for download. Additionally, Adult SiteRunner has three XBIZ Awards and is completely connected with the high-risk payment processor CCBill.com.
ViceTemple has been covered in previous articles. To refresh your memory, ViceTemple is a well-known provider of bare metal and cloud servers for adult websites. In addition to their hosted choices, they provide prebuilt WordPress themes. Our favorite WordPress theme is the PornX one because it was created to look like an adult tube site. The PornX theme, which runs ViceTemple-specific content management plugins, enables speedy deployment and simple management of any tube site ideas you may have for a fully integrated and functional theme. Another affordable option for purchasing the theme is a $99 lifetime license. This is a bargain when compared to other WordPress build companies serving the adult sector. ViceTemple is a well-known and respected IT company.
Another all-encompassing content management system provider that supports producers and independent content creators is PornCMS.com. The websites are fully integrated with the cloud hosting services that PornCMS offers and are enhanced with their monetization-enabling features. With PornCMS, a pornstar or model who is just getting started may easily “plug and play” and create a site that is specific to their brand and hosts their content as if it were on a significant adult paysite or studio website. Plans start at $49 per month, with options for site administrators costing up to $695 per month. Pricing is reasonable. The Porn CMS subscription also includes the ability to add more sites at a charge of $99 per site. It is merely another affordable solution that prioritizes usability over complex web technical improvements.
Another company that offers content management systems is ClickCastX.com. This option for content management is one of the biggest in the adult sector and has been nominated for several XBIZ Awards. The fifth software iteration of the ClickCastX.com platform just developed and published a product for content makers. Users of this CMS ecosystem make it possible to manage and monetize images and recorded videos, including live streaming for models who want to build their own community independent of paid social networks like OnlyFans or live cam websites like Chaturbate. Plans for ClickCastX start at $149 per month, with the option to pay almost $9,000 for a lifetime license. The professional edition of the program costs $299 per month, as does the ClickCastX Fans version, which is designed for models wishing to launch a paysite.
Claude, the proprietor of ClickCastX, has appeared as a guest on the podcast Adult Site Broker Talk.
ModelCentro.com is the final submission for this article. We have written about ModelCentro, a content management system, previously, and with good reason. For independent adult content producers wishing to create fan sites and pay sites based on their own fan bases and online traffic, ModelCentro is one of the best all-in-one content management systems. It offers adult creators the opportunity to establish their own online presence, use their own domain name, and keep a sizable portion of the earnings from their websites. It is a perfect option for creators who rely on expensive platforms like OnlyFans. ModelCentro sites are free to start up, and the company only makes money through processing fees and a portion of the revenue that is divided 75/25. 25% goes to ModelCentro.
