You are right to the extent that there is no special virtue as such in running a "real" blog. However your comments totally ignore what makes "real" blogs potential traffic generators and money spinners.
Realizing that potential is something else again, but that is true of any business model, so why so contemptuous of blogs? Certainly to make them work takes time and talent, especially in adult, because its appeal is primarily visual. But that alone is a reason to take them seriously.
What advantage can you hope to have over your competition if you have everything running on autopilot and produce nothing but clones of thousands of other sites around the web. If you have the ability to produce "real" blogs successfully, adult or mainstream, you have an opportunity such as doesn't exist unless you have the funds for an exclusive-content paysite. That is to be original. Get it right and it can pay off like nothing else.

If you have something special and unique then sure it's worth extra effort. The point I was getting at is the fact that even a daily updated text rich blog isn't anything special and unique.
On the other side there is nothing at all wrong with doing a "real" blog if it's something you like doing. My point was just to say that an auto pilot blog can make just as much or more than one someone updates everyday.
Like someone else posted.. It's porn there is only so much to write about it.. lol Now on the other hand for mainstream stuff or mixed content like maybe a funny site personality makes all the difference in the world. However in porn being different is nice but it's not a necessity.
The topic was about telling people that blogs aren't easy and about so manny people giving up on them. The simple reason for that is they aren't making worth while money out of them, specially when they are new. My point was you can run a bunch of fake blogs on auto pliot so it doesn't get boring. Then if you get one of them up to a certian income or traffic level you put more work into it. Otherwise leave it on auto and build a new one.
