Why are you not doing Mainstream?
It's not that easy? Or you don't have the creativity?
Not enough brain farts? You love the free pics? Curious to know. |

I don't know how
I'd much rather do mainstream than porn as long as I can make more than what I do in porn. I'm actually looking for ways to cross over and re-invest my porn money. Mainstream is hard though, I have no idea how to get traffic. |

In porn, 7 figures a year and you are at the top, in mainstream, you are doing pretty good.

He is right baddog, Unless you are an SEO God or have some really unique idea like milliondollarhomepage.
But here in adult, you can simply replicate a website and make traffic. I can make $50 a day website/blog in adult with $0 investment but in mainstream I need quite good some for advertisement and stuff to make a website with $50 a day output. We see a lot (yes, A LOT) of mainstream turnkey sites for sale but we don't see even a 1/5th of that in adult. Most blogs/sites for sale claim some traffic and revenue. If mainstream is as easy as adult, no one there would be selling turnkey sites. Do I need to refer you to the thread created by one of your affiliates as guide to make money in adult? And I believe that did not involve much of investment, If i am right in remembering.

Adult companies dont sellout because you really don't get more than 8-12 months the revenue here. There is no reason to sell your business for 8-12 months the revenue if the site is stable. In mainstream you get years of the revenue. + It's hard to sell adult businesses because there is no one in mainstream that wants to touch them, and no one in adult who has the cash to buy'em- MySpace is valued at $5 billion! YouTube was bought for $1.65 billion! Here is to consider if you want to play in mainstream: Image Publicity Advertising Personally i don't know which one is harder, I'm working on my mainstream sites now.. i'll report back to you guys later! |

I started a minastream site, www.fight-vids.co.uk
actually started it because I wanted a place to host some videos, and the more I looked into it, the more I realised I could blag it all with zero coding knowledge. Then as I did, I learnt some bits on HTML/CSS and PHP, okay I can't create either from scratch but I know enough to go into a page and change bits. So I figured I'd try making sites for money rather than for interest/hobby. I knew there were a lot of big hitters in porn, but its still the exact same obstacles that I have with my mainstream site. You need a USP, even over the big hitters. Its got to be different. If its not a different idea, you need to do it better. You need to be realistic with your abilities and targets. Monetizing traffic is still trial and improvement. Traffic takes time or money. Good traffic takes time. You start spending "hobby time" on your new 'baby' instead of just "office hours" the list goes on. I think all web business is pretty damn similiar

As far as Websites and Blogs, Mainstream is easier to me.
Adult takes some ingenuity in my book, and I'm not sucking up. I wouldn't know where to begin with a brand new Adult site, that's why I'm selling off all my domains. |

Thanks
Nope, everything I do/make is open source or a $$ template. I know pretty much fuck-all indepth about any web programming. Divs make my head spin lol Which is good, means I can concentrate on content and marketing Ive still made MUCH more from viral video marketing than I have from Adult. I used to have an e-commerce site that I again made from templates and script installs. Used to make a side income through there that was enough to not get a part time job. Then the flash-chip market took a nose dive around this Christmas time and it wasn't worth doing it anymore. I deleted it a while ago. My first ever site, which I havn't touched in a while... http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/alienatersastro/index.html was all tables etc. Looking at it now makes me cringe lol This however was all fully coded by hand Also a blog to fight-vids, which is wordpress www.fight-vids.co.uk/blog I figured I vaguely had enough sites (although most are old and forgotton about) to put em all under the banner of "Goodings Media" Lame eh

If you get 12 months revenue, you are lucky. Quote:
Did you ever saw people in mainstream trading traffic? Here in adult you can easily make a site/blog from zero to 1k a day just by trading traffic and links. Quote:

Wish you good luck with it. If you have done something considerable in adult, I am sure you will know which one is harder very soon. I have much experience with both and I have stated my opinion before.

You can compare it with direct-mail where you can get a 1% ROI on your money on a 1,000 mailings but when you roll out the backend to your excisting customers, then you see the money roll in and your ROI is suddenly 80% , see what I mean? Sorry my english is bad. Goodluck! |

Yes, Unless you don't want to exceed $10 a day.
If you want to boom to $100 a day or $500 a day, you need a lot of money to put in. But in adult you don't need. All I want to say is 'Adult is easier than mainstream' -- with the same effort, same budget, same knowledge .. you will do better in adult than mainstream.

I would drive mad traffic into the 'Mainstream Internet' if I owned the product I was selling.
