I am sure that some of you have searched on the Google for free versions of the paid adult themes. There is no doubt that a lot of people search every single day for the nulled version of our amazing theme named ZingTube WordPress Tube.
I have done something similar before as well.
In fact, when I started my affiliate marketing career in the porn industry over a decade ago, I have been using a dozens of nulled themes.
I nearly lost all of my adult sites but luckily my hosting removed all the viruses from my account and I also nearly got my stupid ass sued by the theme shop.
I really was a huge fan of downloading and using cracked plugins and themes when I was young but now I know that it is not only illegal, not ethical or moral to senselessly use pirated softwares but it also can be very harmful for your adult websites.
Now I also understand how dangerous using a stolen theme can be so I will share with you an important information that may save your online business.
Nulled Themes Or Plugins? What Is It?
Well, it is pretty simple.
A nulled theme or a pirated theme is a hacked version of any theme or plugin.
So let’s say some internet pirate hacks our adult theme YameTube from our online shop and he uploads that theme for free (it is agains the law) on the popular pirate forums or to the biggest torrent sites.
This kind of themes are always injected with malicious codes, viruses and what not.
These malicious codes are very hard to find even for the most knowledgeable webmasters, let alone a newcomer.
I will not recommend anyone to use stolen softwares for several reasons.
Now… Here is why you should not use nulled WordPress themes and plugins.
1. Legal Action
I am sure that almost all of you know that piracy is illegal and downloading stolen softwares from dubious sources is illegal as well. These “free” pirated themes have been stolen by the hackers and the theme company has a right to take legal actions against the bloody hackers as well as the webmasters that are using their stolen themes.
Believe me guys, it is not a bullshit. I know a few adult affiliates that thought it was ok to use such themes and they eventually got sued for using pirated softwares.
2. Support
Do not even think that you will get any support and updates from the theme author. Updates are crucial. All the themes and plugins must be kept up-to-date to remain secure.
If you encounter a problem with its theme, you will have to fix that yourself. Your footer is broken? You have to deal with that yourself, there is no other way around it, mate.
3. Many Security Breaches
Well, like I said before, ALL the nulled softwares contains some malicious codes in your theme files so hackers can get access to your website and unfortunately, they can do just anything they want to with your site.
They can add some hidden backlinks pointing to their shady websites and you will not even notice them. These links will most likely get your adult site banned forever from the Google and other search engines.
They can easily redirect your website traffic to the other sites and they know exactly how to do that in a smart way.
Finally, they can delete all of your sites, your files, everything and the worst thing is that your hosting will not be able to help you in almost all cases.
4. Premium Themes Are Dirty Cheap
Gone are the days when you would have to pay a lot of money ($1000 or even more) for a theme. I remember that when I was a teenager, there were no free themes, there was no WordPress and there was no XWPThemes where you could buy a cheap adult theme.
Nowadays, you can get a fully responsive, professionally designed, super fast, super easy to work with and SEO friendly theme for less than fifty bucks.
If you would tell me back in the day that you know a site that sells such themes, I would certainly laugh at you and call you a jerk.
If you are serious about your online business, do not tell me that you do not have forty fucking dollars for a premium theme.
You will pay more for a one dinner at the restaurant in the big city.
5. Hosting Will Suspend Your Account
It is actually a very common thing in this day and age. The theme shop owners send a notice to hosting companies to take the nulled theme down and because most of the hosting sites do not want to have anything in common with webmasters that steal someone’s work, they will definitely ban your account and they may even contact the other hosting providers and they will add you to a public blacklist.
Final Words
Now it is a super important message for all of you, you can be a new or an experienced adult webmaster – it does not really matter, do not ever upload and use any nulled themes or plugins.
