How We Score Network Member Sites

An individual site belonging to a larger network. Your subscription usually includes access to other network sites.

Key insight: Bonus Content jumps to 25% — the highest weight of any criterion for any type. A site with a modest library but great network access can outscore a large standalone.

Bonus content is the biggest factor — a small site with 200 videos might still be a great deal if the network includes 30+ other sites.

Criteria in Detail

Content Volume

15%

Total videos and photo galleries, scaled by category benchmarks.

Reduced to 15%. A member site with 200 videos isn't penalised as harshly as a standalone with 200 videos, because the network library compensates. Separate (lower) volume thresholds apply: Excellent = 400+ videos, Good = 200+.

Brand Popularity

15%

Domain Rating, organic traffic, review coverage, and average score from other reviewers.

15% weight. Still matters — well-known member sites (Brazzers Exxtra, Mofos) draw users specifically for their style and performers, even within a network.

Video Quality

15%

Max resolution (4K/1080p/720p), downloads, streaming, DRM-free access, photo quality.

15% weight. Same as other types. High-res content and download availability still matter for the member site's own library.

Update Frequency

10%

New content cadence — from Daily to Stopped. Staleness penalty if last update was 30+ days ago.

Reduced to 10%. Less critical for members because subscribers can access fresh content from other network sites even when this specific site hasn't updated recently.

Value for Money

10%

Price per hour of content relative to category benchmarks.

10% weight, but the calculation is different. Bonus site video libraries are added to the total hours of content when computing cost-per-hour. A site with 200 own videos but 25 bonus sites (×300 est. videos each) calculates ~7700 total videos.

Site Features

10%

Mobile support, model index, no upsells, live chat, DRM-free downloads, scene dates.

10% weight. Same criteria as other types.

Bonus Content

25%

For network members and networks: quantity and quality of additional sites included.

25% — the highest weight of any criterion for any site type. Scored on: volume of bonus videos (40%), average score of bonus sites (25%), count of bonus sites (35%). 10+ bonus sites = strong score here.
