The homepage for All Over 30 is selling sultry older ladies, which is a bit surprising based on the name of the site. Is 30 really that old? I guess I was expecting more of the MILF phenomenon rather than the mature niche here. Either way, I remember this site from before and they had a pretty good thing going. They offer a lot of updates, and a lot of photo content. The $30 price tag is on the high side unfortunately.
The goods:
- Big updates come almost daily. They actually just bumped the update schedule up a notch as well. Where they used to update five days a week with four new photosets/videos each day, they're now at five photo/videosets coming six days a week! There are usually either one or two videos in each day's update, so the ratio seems pretty good.
- Content looks pretty nice all around. Pictures are pictures these days, and unless you're running a high-end photography site, they're all pretty much the same. They look fine here, but the video quality was better than expected. Both the WMV and MPG versions looked great, especially considering how many they add in a week and what type of site they've got here.
- Some good viewing options. Besides the two video types, they offer two different zip files for downloading their photosets which is a nice touch. Both sizes are also available to view online in gallery format if you remember to find the button letting you upsize them.
The bads:
- Some non-exclusive content I believe. They don't mention much either way on the exclusivity of the content, but based on the looks of everything and how often they update, I'd have to guess that at least some of the material isn't exclusive. They focus more on quantity, which generally makes me think they're buying this content elsewhere. **UPDATE** They let us know that about 80% of their content is actually exclusive, and they're working hard to make it more distinguished from the non-exclusive content. That's great news!
- Content is pretty split up among a lot of categories. All women over 30 is a pretty general category to begin with, but when you hit the link to view their photos or videos they open up a bunch more. Things like Mature Housewives, Lacey Ladies, 9 to 5 Ladies, Elegant Ladies, Exotic Ladies, etc. make for too much confusion on my end at least. I much preferred to just view things chronologically, or by model.
- I wouldn't mind seeing 100% daily updates of course. They're so close already, I'm not sure why they don't make the switch! They seem to have a script helping run the site, and they obviously have enough content to fill the void. It's not a huge deal, but at this point why the heck not?
Conclusion:
They run a pretty decent site here. It's not without problems, but if you just want a nice-sized site full of mature-ish women, they've got you covered. The navigation holds them back a bit, but it's not a very big deal.

Well, all in all I think it's decent news here this time around. The updates have remained consistent and large, so their content counts are way up of course. The video section was also redesigned a bit to give a little categorization to that section, making it easier to find specific types of material. Other than that, there are a few small changes not affecting the score much, but deserving of being mentioned: a member forum, previews of upcoming content for each girl, and more. I still don't get why they don't do daily updates since they're so close, but who cares since it's pretty good as it is.
Score increased from 84.0 to 87.5.
