Does Gay Kingdom deliver what it promises on the outside?

It's a "portal" to a large variety of pay sites. The draw is that you pay one membership fee and gain access to a number of sites offering pic galleries, videos, live chat, and erotic stories. While a lot of sites are featured, some are listed under more than one category (such as Collegeboyz live, which is considered both "straight boys" and "live shows".)

Also not every link worked - a random sampling turned up two (Cruiserboys.com and Squirtz) that gave a "page not found" message at the time of this review. But most of the links do work, including access to sites featuring guys from Citiboyz and Miami studios. Another great feature is access to photos from many different newsgroups. For those who prefer their porn streaming, there's a good selection to be found here.

What's good about Gay Kingdom? What needs improvement?

The good part is that each category is organized very clearly. Every page contains a long list of sites within that category. Each individual listing has a banner picture and a brief paragraph describing that contents. It makes it fairly simple to navigate. Sometimes the new site opens in a new browser window (this is ideal). For sites that didn't open in a new window, the Gay Kingdom banner frame takes up the top ¼ of the page. As an example, the gallery pages in the Boyzfoto site aren't able to show an entire picture, since the top ¼ is taken up by the Gay Kingdom frame and the next ¼ is the Boyzfoto frame. There's only half the screen left for the content! Same goes for streaming video - when the site doesn't open in a new window it's impossible to see all the content.

How is Gay Kingdom unique?

It's not very unique in the sense that there's no original content. All these sites are presumably available on their own or as part of other packages. What IS original is having them all together under one handy dandy roof and for one membership fee.

What do paying users recieve for their money?

Keeping in mind that there were some duplicates and broken links, at the time of this review Gay Kingdom featured 17 live shows (cams), 17 straight boy sites, 20 galleries, and about 56 video streaming sites. Not all of the content will appeal to all viewers, but that is a feature related to each individual site and not on Gay Kingdom as a whole. Certainly there is value by going this route instead of paying for each site separately. The thing to do is check out all the site and see how many you would be interested in and visit on a regular basis.

Caricature of Ben Dover BoyGayKingdom promises to be the premier internet portal in service,.. what that boils down to is that it is a gateway to a number of other pay sites, that for whatever reason, have allowed this site to use their content. Included are video feeds, picture galleries from other sites, and erotic fiction. Read full review
