Men of Muscle: Zeb Atlas & Joe Thunder

  As we continue our series about the revved up output of online video websites and major adult studios, there's an inherent benefit that we haven't really spelled out. Those who become members at any of these sites are getting more value for their money--more videos per week at the same price. Even adding just one more video per week has turned into a successful move for many sites. And that leads us into today's spotlighted website Jake Cruise.
 .
  When Jake Cruise added a second weekly video update several months ago it was accompanied by a concerted effort to add some hot performers to the site and bring some of the most popular ones back. Within the last year we've seen Zeb Atlas, Leo Giamani, Mike Roberts, Michael Von Steel, Tony Capucci, Seth Sweet (aka Evan Grey), Zack Cook, Patrick Bateman, David Taylor, Joe Thunder (aka Apollo Phoenix), Criss Strokes, Tommy D and many, many others. In addition the video quality was increased in terms of size and length. This has certainly contributed to the increase in publicity in the gay press (including that illustrious blogosphere we're a part of) So it shouldn't come as any surprise that the traffic at Jake Cruise has gone through the roof.

As to what's next for Jake Cruise, we were happily surprised to find that the site's recent successes have been the catalyst for some welcome and exciting changes. First, in case you haven't seen it the newest video featuring Jake giving Zeb Atlas a massage is real hot one (By the way, check out our review of his latest flick later this week. We have some views contrary to the negative chatter that's surrounded Zeb Atlas lately). Upcoming is another Leo Giamani video--this time in a hot pairing with David Taylor!

  Aside from the hot videos Jake Cruise is undergoing a MAJOR site redesign right now which should be unveiled shortly. There are no details yet but fortunately Jake Cruise had a great new marketing exec who we have a past association so we look forward to hearing from him. We're expecting that the somewhat dated look at Jake Cruise will be replaced with something that's easier to navigate with better organization. This has been something that's way overdo at a site with such an impressive archive.

The other news comes in the form of NEW companion site Cocksure Men. This hardcore gay site features the men of Jake Cruise in action together with one very notable difference--Jake Cruise doesn't appear. Obviously this is a site geared for those who just want to see the hunky men of Jake Cruise. From what we've seen in the previews Cocksure Men delivers---and more so. There are still a ton of details to follow but it looks like there are lots of scenes filmed outside and out of the bedroom set. And when we know more we'll post the info.

So, in conclusion it looks like the Jake Cruise empire is expanding big time. With additional sites like Straight Guys For Gay Eyes and the new Cocksure Men, Jake is looking to cover all the bases and we are looking forward top seeing what's next.
