2005- I STARTED! Feb 2005 I was a completely newbie, I was asking questions every day using different usernames, because I was embarrassed with my NEWBIE questions. Thanks to WiredGuy, "sleazydreams", "Aaron M", Trax, newbreed, """"""After Shock Media""""" tanker, SmokeyTheBear, BVF, Dalai lama, and some more, thanks to those guys I succeeded in this business!
Most thanks deserves "AERON M" in the beginning I hated this guy, now I know why because he was one of those guys who knew everything and felt sorry for newbies, but many times he answered my questions and once he even fight with some guy who criticize him because he helped newbies.
SmokeyTheBear comes second, many good advices, this guy knows a lot!
BVF comes third, many good advice from him.
Many times I was in contact with JUICY D., never, never, not once I got any advice from him! So yes he is just a clown working for his own sig.
I made this thread as an inspiration thread, some of threads like this one gave me hope to work hard in this business.
What do I do? Today I own 4 nice paysites (nylon fetish, feet fetish, amateur and full-length porn movies), some free sites, 5 TGP's, blog directory...but most of the costumers I get from google/adwords. And one more thing I should mention Marc from AEBN, this guy helped me in the beginning with aebn feeds, also Mellisa from AEBN reduced a couple of my feed bills until I was on my own legs, and today I'm one of AEBNs best plugin costumes.
I earn around $40,000 a month, thanks to GFY, I really mean it, thanks to GFY!! So my advice to all newbies is: work hard you can be rich if you "put all your time in into this" there is no easy way, you have to work day and night in the beginning! And be you own, if you know what I mean.
And I almost forgot to thank Verotel (my billing processor) who made this easy for me, focusadult.com for great content, Gregg, pluginfeeds.com, Matrix Content, servermatrix, and I should mention livejasmin.com for the best upsell sponsor who will never shave you.
And for those who usually ask how much you spend to make money:
Monthly average expenses: adwords $1000, $400 3 servers, $1500-$2000 AEBN feeds, that's it.
Thank you
Ps. If anyone wants to know "details" how I succeeded, I'll tell you in details, just ask and bookmark this threat and I'll answer as soon as I can.
