Blonde Passions is one of those sites where a review and the TBP site facts can come in handy. The guest tour here is sort of old school with a few splash pages leading towards the join page. It's tough to get a read on what exactly the member's area includes. A couple things that do come across though are that the chicks here are blonde and membership includes bonus sites.
The Goods:
- 100s of Galleries w/ Sexy Blondes. The main content section is the picture galleries which have high and low quality pics of hot blondes. Mostly it's girls in solo sets but there is a bit of hardcore mixed in too. The videos have much more hardcore than the pictures.
- 'Tour Girls' Content Section. Although I'm not very fond of the tour I do like that this company offers up "Tour Girls" sections where members can see all the material that was used on the tour. It's a clever little idea that I like to point out.
- Bonus Sites & Discount Price. The bonus sites here cover most of the popular niches and are set up the same was as Blonde Passions. It's good extra material for members. The TBP discount price helps a bit with the value.
The Bads:
- Non-Exclusive Content. The stuff here is not original and it has that look about it. Not all sites have original stuff and that's the case here.
- Many More Pics than Videos. The galleries outnumber the videos by a pretty big ratio which is the case for most of this company's sites. Since we're not dealing with exclusive stuff I think it would be easy for them to build up a bigger number of movies so I wish they'd do that.
- Some Upsell Links. They're not obtrusive but there are a number of things like Adult Netflix, a store, live chat, and some pill type products.
Conclusion:
The site does update regularly, everyday based on the "coming soon" dates, and the updates mirror the general picture to movie ratio of the site. Most updates are picture galleries while movies are added every five days. I expect the site to continue along with steady increases in the amount of content.

Review: 07-20-07 |
Taking another look at Blonde Passions I see that the bullet points outlined in my initial review still apply. The site still has a larger collection of picture galleries than videos as they do updates the pics more often. The change that has been made is in the video viewing and quality. Each movie is divided into clips (usually 4-6 per video) and the clips initially stream in-browser. From there it's possible to download the whole movie in four quality levels (three for the older movies). The highest format which is offered on the newer vids is a very solid 2000k level. This new system/quality has been put in place on the other included network sites in addition to Blonde Passions.
Score increased from 74.0 to 74.5.
