Tasty Tara looks pretty hot, but her tour looks like most any other porn site tour you might see out there. Of course it's a solo site here, but right off the bat it has a more corporate feel to things, compared to the homemade feel you get from others. The $25 price of admission, plus access to some other generic/non-solo sites with membership, only reaffirms that notion for me. She's hot, but I wouldn't expect much more than some content of her here.
The goods:
- Mostly exclusive content. I think her newer stuff is exclusive, while her older archive stuff (which is in the minority) isn't from what it looks like.
- Content looks okay. Pictures and videos both look better than most amateur's stuff, but then again I don't think this was made by her husband at home either. There's room for improvement, but they definitely look decent.
The bads:
- Needs some growth. With barely over 50 photo sets, barely over 25 videos, it's just a small site all around. There's no update schedule that I can see anywhere, and I last reviewed the site almost nine months ago so it hasn't grown that much since then.
- No interaction with Tara. You won't find a diary, cam show, message board, or anything else to interact with Tara here. These features are usually big deals on an amateur site, so when they're missing you know something weird is up.
- Not sure when updates come. They don't really date anything here, and the site is still very small even though I looked at it almost nine months ago. I don't think updates come as often as you'd hope for, but I can't be sure.
- A bit more expensive than usual. $25 is definitely higher than most amateurs charge, where we usually see a $20 price tag as the golden standard. When you have to pay more for less content, slower updates, and no interaction, it's a tough pill to swallow.
- No high-def videos as advertised. I'm not sure why they threw in the little graphic advertising high-definition videos, but they did. Once inside, the best you get is around 720x480 which isn't even close to the 1280x720 needed for the minimum HDTV specs. I'm not sure where they got that one.
Conclusion:
So overall not the best showing here. She's hot, and her content looks okay, but that's about the end of the fun for me. The small site, lack of updates (from what I can guess), higher price, and lack of interaction definitely hurt the overall score and review here. She'd need to touch on all those things to give herself a boost here.

Well, the collection here has grown a bit since the last time we visited, but that's about all that's changed really from what I can tell. It didn't even grow enough to make a huge dent in the quantity score, as that'll just take a lot of time to get there with the almost-weekly updates. Otherwise, interaction is still missing as well, which is the other big problem. Thankfully it's easy to figure updates out now since everything is dated, so there score will jump a bit just from that feature. Otherwise, besides the good-looking content, I'm hoping to see a few more upgrades next time around.
Score increased from 75.0 to 76.5.

Tara still looks pretty damn tasty to me. Her site is just so-so still though, unfortunately. It's grown a bit, but not much, especially considering the time we've been away. Besides the (slow) growth, not a whole lot has changed from what I see. Interaction is still lacking, the price is a bit high, updates are slower than usual, and all those things just add up a bit for me. She's hot, but without a bit more attentino to the site, it's still a mixed bag for me.
Score decreased from 76.5 to 75.5.
