 My
name is John, and like most other adult webmasters, if we were
to meet on the street I am probably not who you would expect.
I am
articulate, degreed, happily married and my friends would tell
you I am a nice person. I am a homeowner, business owner, physically
fit and well dressed. No one in my circle but my wife knows what
I do. I sell other things, online, but all people would care about
are these few adult sites.
Several
years ago, I came to work for an adult company on a non-adult
project. That failed over a few short months, and to keep food
on the table and a roof over my head, I was offered work on a
soft-core project, which I accepted.
Eventually,
that too failed and I was let go.
The
online adult industry is one of the most cutthroat and competitive
industries there is. There is a war for every penny and every
clickthrough. I learned a lot while I was there; how to make a
site that works, how to cross promote, how to convert, how to
get others to invest and advertise. I learned how to write analysis
reports so that people would be willing to invest, and I was able
to secure new opportunities before even the best in adult knew
they were in the pipeline.
You
should have seen some of the five and even six figure affiliate
checks that went out in the mail. The company did it by being
scrupulously honest in paying each and every affiliate exactly
what they had earned like clockwork.
After
I was forced out, I found that I was unemployable. I never filmed
an adult feature, had never peformed in an adult feature, and
had never worked directly on an adult feature in any way. But
I may as well have.
I have
great job skills, but since politically correctness rules the
world, I could not get hired. I would go to an interview and present
my abilities, accomplishments, and sites of my own, and would
always mention my short stint at the adult company. I was surprised
at being told by various interviewers that a great many people
in the technical world have at one time or another taken work
with an adult company, not to worry,and that it was not an issue.
A few times I was hired on the spot.
Later
the HR churchladies would check references. Thereafter, all offers
were rescinded and all calls unreturned.
Same
person, same skills, unacceptable industry. It has been over 7
years.
It
did not take long to dawn on me that I was never going to get
a nine-to-fiver ever again. I could be a productive member of
some online company doing any number of things. So I will do the
work that is demanded of me, to continue promoting pornography,
fetishes, and every other form of legal adult site I can. If that
upsets anybody, great, that makes my day.
If
you are reading this, I will tell you up front that you can have
the best of both worlds. Are you working your ass off and making
another guy rich in the process? You are probably younger, smarter,
and know more about business then the bloated boomers clogging
the upward ladder.
Here
is a suggestion, start a few adult sites, just a few to get going.
It's easy. Start with three sites. Build them, set up a few inbound
links, and let them sit there until you get your first check.
Then make another site. Keep your dayjob, keep it off the resume,
but do keep the checks you will be getting.
You
can register and host domains at directnic.com for about $15 a
year without being hassled by the morality police. Here is a link,
please do use it as I make a few penies if you click on it: Be
an Adult Webmaster Here.
Keep
working a little at a time. At some point you will find that if
you are making the sites so that they can be ranked organically
in the search engines, that monthly check will be paying your
bills.
"MILF
Tube" has 60,500 exact searches per month on google alone,
which would add about 12,100 to yahoo. The math is that if it
ranks first on a search engine, forty percent will click your
link, and on average one percent will make a purchase. If this
ranks highly for "MILF Tube" on Google alone, that would
be 24 signups a month, minimum. The average sale is $10. This
site took me two working days to complete, and it would still
be worth it to me if the site made alot less than that.
What
would life be like if you had 50 sites paying you $240 a month?
I want to find out.
I hope
you like our site, will come back often. Should you decide to
watch more than just a sample, you will find the price of movies
to be minimal and every effort to be discrete is taken.
