SAN DIEGO, Calif. – A hosting company and a software developer, but longtime service providers for the adult online industry, have signed a pact that will make their products available to webmasters as a package deal.

Under the agreement, Red Apple Media will implement Mansion Productions’ content-management program MPA3 and affiliate-management software MAS as part of the former’s hosting packages.

“In the past four to five years, member retention has decreased across the board,” said Mansion Chief Executive Officer Oystein Wright. “It’s imperative that adult companies implement the proper tools and content-management systems to properly promote and maintain their programs. Red Apple Media has shown itself to be technically capable of not only understanding our advanced software, but also the way we work with web design and webmaster services, which our competition does not offer. And on the project-management side, their team acts as the communication link between us and the end customer, which is rare and invaluable in this industry.”

MPA3 made its mark in 2004 by being the first system of its kind to introduce cascading billing. Today, the software provides key admin tools including pixel-tracking affiliate links, XML- and XSL-friendly design templates, fraud-protection reports, real-time member stats and multiple billing capabilities including micropayments and geo-IP-targeted options.

“We are major supporters of Mansion Productions’ technology, and every client that executes MPA3 and/or MAS into its network sings their praises,” Red Apple Media CEO Steven Daris said. “It’s a pleasure to work with like-minded technology developers like Oystein and his team, and we thrive on the incredibly exciting projects and high-tech challenges they send our way. We look forward to even more to come.”
