Not enough content on there and far to irregular updates to be worth paying that amount per month if you ask me (and I am/was a member) - I have been a member for about a month but I am cancelling membership today
Shame as its a good idea, I know she is only just getting started but they shouldn't charge that kind of mullah if that is the case

Dace.. It's had 3/4 updates in 4 weeks... There's about 2 hrs of video there and quite a few more hours to come... It doesn't say as other sites "Updated Daily etc."

Sahara has to fit in the shoots for the site with her other modelling work. She just came back from a week working in Portugal and is in the middle of being filmed for a fly on the wall documentary for Ch 4 to be screened in Feb... So we do a shoot as often as possible...
Also, It isn't cheap to run a site... Become a webmaster and pay models ?200+ a shoot... Pay for hosting etc..... Sorry you think it's too expensive but 99% of the content is exclusive and so you won't find it anywhere else... So exclusivity costs...

You don't have an email address on your profile so email me at:
webmaster at saharagetsdirty dot com
What do you call irregular updates as I'd love to know ? If the site had been up a year and I updated once week for a while then once a month etc. You would be correct but the site was only launched on 13th Sep, and it has been updated weekly... This weekend there were two sets of pics and another video added
Just remember...
You can keep some people happy, some of the time but you can never keep all of the people happy, all of the time....

you pay models ?200 a shoot?
My site costs me ?7 a month hosting, i am my own webmaster and that doesnt cost me anything, and ALL the shoots i do are content swap or tfp work or my boyf does it....
maybe your working it the wrong way... if your spending ?200 a shoot how are you expected to make money?
I have over an hours worth of video and over 5000 pics on my site and it costs me ?7 a month... maybe you should change the way you work!

Emmab, your female so you have an advantage over Joe in terms of content

Spending 200 on shoot is the norm in this biz and you need to spend money to make money. And as for ?7 a month for hosting... i wouldn't have to much faith in that!

Emma....
Not all models want to do content swap. Not all models have their own sites so content swap isn't a choice, though we have done some. Male and female models charge different rates and ?200 is an average. Read this here: about rates

Sahara obviously works for free as it's her site but she fits this work in with her paid work

As she does the Sky tv work a few night a week, we shoot when she has a night off. Also, my g/g shoots consist of two full sets of stills and two videos... I work the models hard... LOL.
Matt.. Thanks for your comments
RRankin..
Thanks for your comments as well... I wish as many paid for the pay site as have joined her Yahoo group... LOL. Sahara has a bit of work lined up. The tv at night is booked through November and modelling work also pops up regularly... Though she could always do with more.. hint hint to producers, except our friend One Eyed Jack, who doesn't need to be prompted...

Dace...
Why would I tell you off in an email when I've said it all here

I just have a thing about people who flame others with crap, which you did, and then don't have a way of being contacted...
It's well known on the net for flamers to be the people who have a problem when they post anonymously

I flame away when I feel like it. Always as Joe A and with an email address...
So how is updating a site weekly "irregular" ? Specially as the site is brand new...
Join her Yahoo group and see the compliments paid on the site
