Don't ask me how this gay erotic daily magazine features "str8" boys and men (this all according to their description at the top of their main tour page). There's definitely some hardcore gay material here, so hopefully that's what you're ready to see. The other perplexing thing I see on CzechBoys is that the men supposedly come from Europe, North America, and Latin America; why is it called CzechBoys then? The content looks decent in the tour here, but I fear the whole premise of their site is compromised here! $25 gets you inside for the first month, and you'll pay just $20 a month after that.
The goods:
- Most content is exclusive. They break their site down and separate the exclusive content from the non-exclusive which helps. They feature a lot of their own content, which I wasn't totally sure about at first.
- Decent size, grows often. This isn't really a small site as they've been around for quite a few years (since the year 2000 maybe?). Updates come daily helping the numbers grow even higher.
The bads:
- Site is a bit cluttered and confusing. It took me quite a while to get my bearings here. There's so many extra links and words around that really get in the way. Even once you think you've found some navigation, there's more confusion behind that door too. A redesign and some spring cleaning would do them wonders.
- Quality can vary. This may be due to how long they've been around, or it may be some of their other content, but quality can vary a little bit. Generally things look nice at least, so it's not a huge concern.
Conclusion:
The site really distracted me on this one. They offer some decent stuff, but the experience as a whole was hurt while trying to get around the site. If they could clean it up and make it easier to get around, I think their content (which is pretty good) would become the focus and that's where they want it. It's a good site in terms of content and updates, but for now it won't get top ratings until they can clean it up a bit.

Review: 03-05-08 |
Things look pretty similar here as our initial visit, which is both good and bad I'd say. The collection is larger than ever thanks to the regular updates. The biggest thing I noticed off the bat though is still the crazy navigation and clutter they have here. It's just confusing when you first arrive to figure everything out, and I think a redesign would do them wonders. The content is good, but the site needs a little work for me.
Score increased from 78.5 to 80.5.
