While I knew Crystal Klein would be a solo site of some kind, I wasn't expecting a real Penthouse Pet here today! She was a Pet back in March, 2005, and is pretty damn hot of course if you ask me. Her tour looks great and is professionally done, so it'll be interesting to see exactly how much involvement Crystal has here. The membership price is a bargain at $15 a month which is a great way to start the review off.
The goods:
- Great price of course. You can't beat $15 a month too often, and I was definitely expecting a higher cost on a site like this. They're usually up in the $25-$30 range (unjustifiably if you ask me), so this was a nice surprise.
- Content can look decent. She has many professional photographers shooting her, and a lot of them know their stuff and make some content that looks quite nice. Each set varies of course, depending on who shot it, but overall there's some good stuff here.
- Updates are coming. At first they were a bit tough to figure out since there's no real central updates page, but it looks like a video is added once a week, and photo updates come about that often as well (though those are harder to figure out).
- Some interaction going on. She has a diary (incorrectly called a "news" page that I almost missed), though the news page usually links you just to the latest post (and not to the one you clicked on). There's also a message board, and a cam show once in a while (but that hasn't happened in a while).
The bads:
- Content can look less than stellar too. Things vary a lot here because of so many different photographers, and once in a while the content just won't be up to par. This is especially true in the video section where a lot of videos are only in low-quality format.
- Many videos have only low-quality versions. I'm not sure why this is, as a few of them have mega-sized versions (that look nice), but a lot of them don't have the highest-quality available. Of course the low-quality ones don't look great and take away from the site a bit.
Conclusion:
Crystal Klein's site was better than expected. With the nice-looking content (mostly), the low price, and a little bit of interaction, I think she's doing well here. There are some issues no doubt, but overall it's a decent site and worth a look, especially if you're already a fan of hers.
