I'm not much into the pornstar scene as I come from a computer background more than a porn background. Even if I knew more about them, I don't think I would have recognized Melanie from Only Melanie in that I don't think she's a pornstar. Her site doesn't look amateur at all either though. It turns out her site seems to be a spinoff from some shoots she did with Only Tease. She's definitely hot enough for her own site, so the fans who requested seeing more of her were definitely right to do so. $20 will get you inside her site which is right about where I though it would be.
The goods:
- Quality is great all around (especially photos). Pictures are large, clear, and colorful with all the fun outfits Melanie wears. Videos are pretty nice as well, though they didn't quite stand out as much to me as the photos did. Still, very nice quality overall!
- Updates come often. It seems like something new is put up every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday keeping things fresh around here. She's already doing much better off than most solo sites so hopefully she keeps this schedule going.
- Diary entries are decent too. They're not huge, and you can't really respond to them or anything, but they seem to come every few days as well which is nice to see. The forum is the only other real place to interact with anyone, so the more the merrier here.
The bads:
- Navigation could be simpler. They provide most options, though it's not quite as intuitive as I'd like. For example, there's no separate video section to browse through which annoyed me at first. However, they do have a selector to only view the video update which works in the same manner. However, once you're viewing only videos, you can also only view one month at a time instead of one large list in order. Little things like these added up to make a little more complicated than it needed to be I think.
- Could use more interaction. The diary is definitely nice to have, but the entries aren't huge and it's a one-way interaction going on here (you can't respond to her or anything). There is a forum that looks okay, but I wouldn't mind a more robust diary system, and of course some camshows or something similar to bring it to the next level.
Conclusion:
This is a pro-amateur site overall, and if you go into the site knowing that, I think you'll be okay. The content is great, the updates are good, and the price is even decent. What you won't get is a ton of interaction or personal flair from Melanie. There are a few things I'd tweak here even without adding that higher level of interaction, but overall it's decent for sure.

Review: 03-05-08 |
Melanie's site has really grown over the last year and a half! Her pictures number in the tens of thousands, and the updates continue to come. Not a ton seems to have changed here, but the site was pretty good on our first visit anyway. The interaction is still similar to how it was last time, but at least her diary entries come pretty often. Overall, a nice site got even bigger, which can only help things.
Score decreased from 84.5 to 83.0.
