NEW YORK – A provider of back-end services for adult websites and a website security consultation firm have formed a strategic alliance designed to reassure consumers the adult sites they visit are trustworthy and secure.

WebsiteSecure.org will issue trust seals to Elevated X customers whose sites pass a security evaluation. For a limited time there is no charge for the service.

“Having worked with many Elevated X customers over the years, we are aware of the high quality clientele that their pay-site CMS software attracts,” said Stewart Tongue, owner of Website Secure. “That makes our work screening clients, inspecting sites and monitoring their join processes much simpler, which allows us to offer a free certification to Elevated X customers interested in seeing how much better their own conversion ratios can become simply by promoting the fact that they are doing business in an ethical manner online.”

Website Secure trust seals are used by many brands in adult and have gained traction in mainstream verticals with more than 1.8 billion join page impressions and counting, Tongue said. The trademarked Website Secure trust seal is a visual symbol of ethical commerce that immediately conveys the site displaying it can be used by consumers with greater confidence, because the site has been independently inspected and its join process has been impartially audited. As a result, clients have reported significant improvements in conversion ratios on existing traffic due to the enhanced user experience at the point of sale, Tongue noted.

The limited-time offer includes one free site inspection and 90 days of monitoring per customer without any set-up fees. To qualify, a site must meet all of the criteria required by Website Secure to pass inspection and the must use the Elevated X CMS.

“I’ve heard nothing but positive feedback from Elevated X customers who use Website Secure and display the trust seal on their join pages,” said Elevated X Chief Executive Officer AJ Hall. ”When Stewart offered to give Elevated X customers 90 days to try the Website Secure service for free, I saw it as win-win for everyone and am happy to lend my support. I think it’s a great promotion and a great no-risk opportunity for my customers to try a useful service that can help improve their pay-site sales conversions.”
