You didn't need so much back then to make the bank. I still kick my self in the ass every time someone says 1998 and porn. Fuck man I remember looking into AVS's back then and was getting close to getting into porn then but I just didn't believe the money was real. I thought it was some scam or something.
Hell man I remember my days on AOL with a 286 Dell and trying to be a l33t hacker, getting into porn sites for free. lol you read about how some guys got started back then by stealing content from other sites or scanning it on a flatbed from a magazine.
lol I was almost that guy back then.. I had a bunch of porn saved up on my little dell hard drive and had a cheap scanner. Didn't think anything of it back then, had just bought a house and was trying to make more money. I never ended up getting into the biz then, but damn I wish I had.
As far as content though, I was just thinking a few days ago at how different even gallery submitters are these days. It wasn't too long ago that you had to buy your own content to be a gallery submitter and there wasn't thousands of FHG's at a webmasters disposal.
IMHO it's way too easy for webmasters these days and I think that leads to the problems we have today. It cost no money to get in this biz because everything is free, so many guys that should get weeded out never do.
I think there is just too much competition for affiliates these days and if one program wont give them 10 min tube videos 5 other programs will.
