Not really, maybe you misread.

If your writing is indeed valuable, you should start your own blog/free site network.... that is if you haven't already. Good original text is welcomed, and you wouldn't have to partner with anyone. Do you really want to chase around money from a partner? Many adult paysites, especially newer ones do not profit. So percentage wise you'll end up with nothing

There's this ridiculous outlook of the industry today, where text must sit over here (call it blogs) and images must sit over here, and the two should always be on different websites. Why ?
There's no natural cause for it, other than people suck at organising things to start with, and then just lemming along.

On the other side, most sites think of writing as an accessory, like getting fancy new rims for a car. You can get to the store and back with the old rims just fine. In rare cases unless the text provides TRAFFIC, it's not worth it.

Which, as I'm saying, is an silly proposition on it's face, silly enough to be worth testing it out.

All the things you demand your partner to show up with is NOT cheap and very time-consuming, yet your job will ONLY be to come up with a storyline. That's it, you provide a storyline... a STORYLINE? in exchange of revenue? That's like saying "I helped you across the street now give me 50% of your money".
Legendary.

It only appears to say that because that's what you want to read into it. Which, again, is fine. This would not be your cup of tea.
By your rationale, a publisher and an author can not work together, because printing presses are NOT cheap and very time consuming. Incidentally, nobody can ever be an affiliate, either.
