No newcomer to the Adult Entertainment Industry, PornstarGlobal.com has done it again with yet another extension of the core site which will be referred to as the 5 Star Awards. The folks behind PornstarGlobal have said they created the 5 Star Awards out of pure frustration due to honest & hard working Adult Entertainers not getting the proper notoriety they deserve. They continued to say “Most of the Awards that are currently being handed out are simply reflections of who’s camp can dish out the most money for advertisement, and we feel there is something horribly flawed with that practice”. “The 5 Star Award concept parallels more of a grass roots way of thinking by boasting an honorable, accurate and untainted voting process”.

According to an ex-employee (who wishes to remain anonymous) of one of the more popular Industry Award ceremonies, this bold accusation by PornstarGlobal is indeed true: “yes, sadly there was a constant but unspoken rule to favor the companies and girls that have purchased high-end ad space in the past, and also not to upset the major sponsors”.

The Voting Process:
The objective of the 5 Star Award voting process is to add ease and simplicity to a basic ballot style online form. 3 short fields to fill out and one click of the submit button will cast your vote and help your favorite Pornstar edge her way that much closer to the finish line. Each vote is then carefully processed, calculated and stored for the entire year. Yes, the PornstarGlobal 5 Star Award voting polls are open 365 24-7 and only slow down briefly during the the end of the Year to announce the newest Winner. This is an approach that no other award shows have attempted as they commonly only open their voting system 1-3 months before the winner is chosen. The PornstarGlobal 5 Star Awards gives fans the ability to cast their vote whenever they feel.

The Winning prize idea is again, something that has never been done before and has created quite the buzz. A 5 Star Award Winner will have the rights to an image based, front and center position on the homepage of PornstarGlobal.com for the entire year following the win. This prize seems to be much more valuable to a potential ’star’ in the making, than a small cash prize & trophy, and has already caught the eye of many of the Industries bigger names.

Currently, there are 2 Official Winners of the 5 Star Award.. Jenna Haze (2009) and Sunny Leone (2010). The voting is now open for the 2011 5 Star Award Winner along with free ‘Vote For Me’ banners which can be obtained from the 5 Star Award area of PornstarGlobal.com.

The report, which is currently being made available only to TopBucks Mobile webmasters, includes data on device and browsing market share, mobile consumer purchase habits and projections for the growth of the market through the end of 2010 and beyond.

“The white paper is an extension of the information we’ve been providing through our webinars and mobile workshops at industry trade shows,” said Lea Busick, marketing director for TopBucks Mobile. “It combines information we obtained from third party sources with data we have collected through our own network of sites, and provides a very solid overview of the current state of the market, and some important trends that adult webmasters will want to keep an eye on in the months ahead.”

Some of the report’s key conclusions include:
• Mobile browsing market share is a far more significant metric than device sales market share
• The Android operating system will greatly expand in market share in 2010
• The mobile market for adult entertainment is already substantial, and growing rapidly

“One of our goals with this white paper, as well as with the workshops we’ve been doing, is simply to communicate that the adult mobile market is real, and it is growing quickly,” Busick said. “I think that a lot of webmasters are still a little skeptical about that point, because they’ve been hearing for years that ‘mobile is coming,’ but it never seemed to arrive. Hopefully, some of the hard data and analysis we’ve put on the table will convince webmasters that there’s a real opportunity to make money here, and we’ll see more people putting a serious effort into mobile marketing and promotion.”

ASACP does incredible work to help the fight against child pornography as well as keeping children away from adult material. Joan’s is a message that people in the adult industry need to hear. I am a big supporter of ASACP’s mission and want to help get the word out to as many people as possible.”
