I have been on my own since 1995. Took the last two years off, living off Ibill recurring...built a new site and holy fuck...things have changed.
As for processing, I have ACpay for credit cards, took all of a day to set up.
For check processing, ACHbill. Took less then a day. These dudes are a class act.
Have paypal, yes you can skirt them to process adult. Until I get caught.
Have mail order signup.
Working on 1-900 but the 72 hour setup promised by ibill is into it's second week. *sigh*
I am just shitting about traffic. I could send 60k qualified uniques to my new site in minutes, just pissing around and trying to do it the old way. I miss amateur link sites, picposts.....Times are tuff...thank god for recurring.
