Hi, I recently aquired a website of adult products and I have not the slightest clue on how to promote it. Can anyone help?

Good start from and pointing to audience and partner tactics. For anything adult-facing the immediate priorities are not just promotion — they are operational and legal readiness, because those determine what channels will work and how much risk the site carries.

  • Confirm legality and product restrictions for every market you plan to ship to; some items are regulated or banned in certain countries.
  • Implement an age-gate, clear content labeling, and a privacy/terms page that covers sensitive-data handling (GDPR/CCPA implications).
  • Set up a compliant payment solution: many mainstream processors restrict adult content and require high‑risk underwriting. Expect different fees and documentation.
  • Harden checkout and trust signals: HTTPS, PCI-compliant processing, discreet billing/shipping language, clear returns/refunds, and a plan to manage chargebacks.
  • Use analytics and server-side tracking so blocked scripts do not kill conversion data; monitor AOV, CR, chargeback rate, and CAC closely.

For traffic and growth, prefer channels and partners that explicitly allow adult commerce (adult-friendly affiliate networks, specialist PR, and creators who disclose adult work). Focus SEO on non-explicit, purchase-intent long-tail terms, clean product pages, and structured product data so search engines index what you want without policy hits. Avoid trying to run explicit ads through mainstream platforms that disallow them.

You should promote it through adult forums & blog, also I assume there are few adult social networking site would be there that will meet your purpose.

Every, mostly all adult website have a webmaster corner for LE and banner exchange. Try it.
