The http://advancedmasturbation.com (Advanced Masturbation) website droped from # 3 in Google down to # 60 and then down to #750 within a month. Luckily we were able to develop a wider base for the site so a drop like that does not totally kill the site. However, what we can not figure out is why that would happen when Google is obviously not penalizing the site for any other search terms. In fact, it holds a really nice expanded version listing for "Masturbation Techniques". Then "Male Masturbation" is also a decent rank. Why the site would drop like that for the regular old "Masturbation" keyword is absolutely beyond my comprehension. That's just crazy Google!

Today, I had to bit the bullet and edit/publish the 414 KB on http://sexeditorials.com
I thought I would be done with spam since I included a line in the publishing script that cancels any entry that begins with "http". But now someone (or many people) are spamming with a sentence like:

"Nice site! Great work! 14a32"

Unfortunately, these are not compliments from readers. They do this in order to find pages that accept and instantly publish text entries. Since they use a program to submit to thousands of guestbooks, blogs, and story boards, they have to find the ones that do not review the text before publishing it. After a few weeks, the entries that get published instantly will be in the search engines. The spammer will then search Google for a unique part of their sentence that is so rare only their on spam results will show up -- they search Google for something like --"work! 14a32" Once they get a list of all the sites where their spam was published, the real spamming work begins. They then sign on with anonymous proxies or stolen IP addresses (so they can enter text as many times as they want without getting their IP banned). Then they spam the sites they found with literally thousands of links to junk sites that redirect to porn or online pharmacies or gambling sites. This causes their junk site to temporarily get a high rank in Google because it has so many links pointing to it. Once Google finds out it is spam, they get rid of it. But the spammer has already achieved their goal. Then they just start the process over again with different junk domains over and over again forever.

I used to have to delete the thousands of links that ended up on the sites. Then it got to the point where there was more spam than legitimate entries. I could not keep up with it, so I wrote to the author of the publishing script and asked if there was a way to ban anything that has "http" in the text. She sent me a code snippet, and it worked! The only downside would be if someone was legitimately quoting another legitimate site and used "http://" when referring to that site. I suppose then can be told in the instructions not to use "http", but they are already told to erase it after they submit.

That kept things spam-free for quite a while. Now this newest spam I mentioned above is starting to become more prevalent. I doubt there will ever be thousands of them like there were with the "http" links, but it is still a pain. It makes editing the sites much more difficult, and it a pure waste of time.

The Sex Ed. site is completely backed up. There are 414 KB of text that was submitted by many different people. I hate to leave people waiting so long, but I have no choice when there are 9 other sites on different topics. The Female Masturbation stories section seems to be picking up in popularity. For some reason the quality of the Male masturbation stoires have had a decline in quality.

We are no longer taking any more gay male stories that blatently refer to young boys. There are way too many "first time" experiences where they are writing about when they were 10, 11, 12, etc. Those stoies can attract pe*doh*files, and we don't want that!

I had to start taking a medication called Tramadol ( ultram ) for back pains. An unfortunate side effect is a decreased sex drive. My masturbation sessions are only happening about once a week. I have no interest in sex at all, which might be a good thing since I do not currently have a girlfriend.

UPDATE - Although editing the sex / masturbation sites has not made me impotent like I feared, it has changed my habits. Some changes are actually for the good. For example, I do masturbate less often, but when I do it the orgasms are much better and the masturbation session is longer. I think that's better than having a bunch of mediocre orgasms. I never realized until now that quality is more important than quantity when it comes to having sex and masturbating. When I started concentrating more on the Masturbation Site , there was a lot less reading to do. I did not have to totally envelope myself in masturbation stories or sex story boards.

As I begin the launch of the Male101.com site, I am starting to feel that my personal sex life is becoming affected. I am afraid that I will become desensitizeed to masturbation and sex because of the amount of time spent editing these sites.

In the beginning, editing the sites was fun. They were a major turn-on, and they increased my ability to have better sex and more creative masturbation. However, after a couple months of that, it was no longer a turn-on at all. The sites caused no sexual arousal while reading/editing. I had to realize that this project was real work rather than a fun hobby.
