'Adult Industry News' Unveils User-Friendly Revamp

LOS ANGELES — Adult Industry News (AIN), founded by industry vet Steve Nelson 23 years ago, has unveiled a new user-friendly website revamp.

Nelson, who remains in his position as Editor-in-Chief, intended AIN to serve as "a positive voice in the tight-knit community to highlight the accomplishments, creativity and hard work of its professionals," noted a rep.

The site now offers "an updated and streamlined delivery of its more than 24,000 articles, interviews, film reviews and press releases for a better online experience," the rep explained, with multiple navigation methods that include "a category list noting how many articles in each section are linked, an improved search tool that finds stories by date from drop-down menus at the side of articles and random ‘blast from the past’ thumbnails linked to articles in the database archives."

Nelson said he conceived the idea for AIN when he was at an event with the late industry journalist and historian Bill Margold.

"I was complaining about the way the gossip sites of the day were trashing the girls and the industry as a whole," he recalled. "I said, ‘Why doesn't someone write something good about the industry?’ Bill paused for a second, looked at me, and in his booming voice, said, ‘Why don't you do it, kid?’ That was the catalyst for the idea that became AIN."
