GoloTube.com is a typical example of a vertical marketing video upload community site. A memorable name, an obvious play on the better known YouTube name and an organization which allows users to become contributors in a way much like RedTube have created a website which revolves around a heavy-traffic community.
As you’d expect this is more than a passing attempt to capitalize on the free porn video site trend or a poorly funded effort at creating a site that is a curiousity. The creators of GoloTube are well-funded, have a solid business model in mind, part of which must take into account the mainstream acceptance of much of porn, and know they need only to bide their time for the right opportunity to come along, for online history to be made again.
In the meantime they have succeeded in creating a website that is as instantly recognizable as most of its mainstream rivals and has a thriving community which is not afraid to upload 'smart' videos alongside the usual porn content.
