YNOT – Cleveland-based Diamond Key LLC has acquired BlackLabelSkin.com from former owner Michael Anthony, the photographer behind the website’s erotic photography and high-definition video. After a thorough redesign, the site is now part of Diamond Key’s ThatOneProgram affiliate program.Anthony, a 20-year practitioner of his craft, will continue to shoot new material for the site, which combines Diamond Key’s “adapt and thrive” motto with Anthony’s dedication to quality and erotic vision.
“Michael has been shooting high-end, erotic glamour for over 20 years and has always been committed to providing the highest quality content,” said Diamond Key Chief Executive Officer Tom Leach. “The new features of this design will take the user’s experience to an entirely new level. It literally makes the media… social.”
Leach described the site as “essentially a micro social network dedicated to the guilty pleasures of life. [Anthony] wants it to be the Robb Report of adult entertainment.”
In addition to Anthony’s erotic art, the community also features content focused on fine wines, men’s fashion, luxury automobiles, modern art and luxury travel.
Members of Black Label Skin have access to interactive profiles of other members and the models featured in Anthony’s work, an integrated email system, the ability to create personal playlists and more.
“This goes far beyond the ability to rate content or leave a comment,” Leach said.
“With this latest launch, we now have released three new ‘micro-social’ networks in 2010 and plan to release at least one more before the end of the year,” he added. “It has proven to be a winning formula even in this challenging market.”
ThatOneProgram offers a total of nine sites in a variety of niches. The program pays 50-percent recurring revshare or $25 per sale.
