Problem with selling mainstream products with porn is that the company will drop your ass as an affiliate almost immediately when they see that your site is a porn site.

I had this exact same "brainstorm" 7 years ago and we were going to put up mainstream stuff on Ampland and AL4A But as soon as the companies checked out the sites and saw that we had porn tgps they canceled us as affiliates

So what I did was developed an online clothing store that was 100% legit with NO porn on it at all and then I fed that site from the porn site to get traffic. It worked okay, but the drawback of mainstream online marketing is that there is NO recurring billing (obviously), the percentages paid on a sale were 5 to 10% MAX, and the companies would immediately start sending the customer who bought from them through your link a bunch of emails with "Special Sales" .

Then when my customers clicked those links in the email he was no longer my customer

I finally just dropped the whole damn thing. Wasn't worth my time in comparison to the money to be made in adult.
