    Programs used atm: Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks, PS7, Imageready, SmartFTP, Audacity, Blender, Camtasia, & panoramaVP.

    Onto the questions, I'd like to know:
    What programs are used to get into business in this industry?
    Whats an appropriate estimate that it takes to start into business?(cheap as I can start)
    Whats the name of your opinionated best business starting technique? (saw a post about gallery business? or free sites? free? lol? free?)

    Hi Phil,

    Welcome!

    >> What programs are used to get into business in this industry?

    Depends what you want to do, TGP / Blog / Paysite / etc. Decide the route you want to take and we can help you with the right tools.

    >> Whats an appropriate estimate that it takes to start into business?(cheap as I can start)

    Again, depends what you want to do. You can setup a blog or tgp for the cost of hosting which is very cheap.

    >> Whats the name of your opinionated best business starting technique? (saw a post about gallery business? or free sites? free? lol? free?)

    If you just want to dabble, try a tgp and try to get some traffic. You will need:

    Hosting: somewhere to put all your crap. DreamHost is a good start because they are cheap. Use the coupon code BRETTSENTME for a $97 discount off a years hosting.

    TGP Script: (Comus thumbs is free but I didnt like it, I used APTGP for a while but there are better ones).

    Trade Script: AT3 is the best.

    Sponsors: just go to any adult pay site you like, click webmasters link at the bottom and sign up. They will give you free content to get you started.

    Then once its all running post your link in the trades section and get some trades going.

    When you are bigger you can ask other webmasters to post galleries in.


    Remember, its a crowded marketplace and you may invest a lot of time and make nothing, but you may also strike it rich. Either way you will have to invest some time to get the ball rolling.

    Good luck!

      Wonderful response thank you very much. Looks like blog, or tgp will be the route, before I decide which route afew more questions. For instance:

      TGP? What does tgp stand for?
      Whats the TGP script about?

      Free content? (continued)
      So let me get this straight, I sign up at some pay site and they'll supply me with .. 'unlimited' content? or limited? I browse through their content and pick a theme? like .. BestBJsintheworldever-ever.com and look for blowjob videos and pictures and just use them freely? (I like the sound of that.)

      How does making a TGP &/or blog make profit? Is it where.. someone pays me for advertising on my website? or is it per visitor clicks on ad? or do they have to sign up for some porn? curious as to how I make the money through blogs and tgps so I can find a way to focus peoples attention to do so.

      Again, thanks for the assistance.

        I'm just like you, getting into the porn business.. I started a blog (see sig) and I've been making some money here and there for the past couple months..

        But yes, you do get free content at your disposal for you to use with your sponsors and you get paid per sign up (you can choose with some companies to get paid $30-35 per sign up or revshare where you get a certain % of money each month when the visitor resubscribes to the sponsor)..

        I'm not too familiar with TGPs but i'm sure someone else can explain..

          I do like your the look of your blog setup. Also I was looking for some tgp templates to see what they are, came up with this.
          www(dot) adultwebtemplates(dot) com/index.php/link/1000/category/0000000008/template_type/2/tmp/TGP-Templates
          I like the look of the tgps, I think I might go with tgps and see how it works out.

          So TGPs it is, now the question. What is needed to start up a good tgp(s)?
          Vague question but from the questions above you'll understand what I'm looking for.

                It costs you no nothing to sign up.
                There are endless sponsors - what about surfing porn sites, and as soon as you like what you see, you scroll down and look for the "Webmasters" link? For me, it's easier to promote what I like (Asians, that is).

                  Free! Sounds like good news.

                  Good host? I'll look around awhile longer for another one, but so far I think I'll be going with them. Guess its time to sign up and start building a page. ;) Thanks for all the assistance.

                  I see screenshots of people's gross income.. what program are they using to monitor their hits, and sign ups and gross income? Or is this through the webmaster's sites that provide the content that I find this info? I'd like to keep records of all sales, views, uniques, and income, other then excel whats good for this?

                    Why should a sponsor charge something for you making them money?

                    I don't know that host, all I can do is warn you from Servage.

                    That data is provided by the sponsor you are using. Many programs use a software called NATS, which shows you all the stats you need about that way (unless I erased my stats):

                      Okay, heres where I stand: (Non of this is official as of yet)

                      Making a TGP site.
                      -> I like the style of the TGP, so I'll give those a try first.
                      Using www(dot)trafficcashgold(dot)com for a sponsor.
                      -> Heard alot of good things about this sponsor in others threads.
                      Using www(dot)zoomfree(dot)com for hosting.
                      -> TCG offers this hosting service completely free.

                      So if any other advice on first starting out, or do you think I'm ready to dive in?

                          Thanks, once I'm ready I'll give you a call. First I have to go make a new bank account however, and I cant do that till Monday, today being Saturday. Once I do that I'm going to look into a host most likely it will be: www(dot)bluehost(dot)com. Then after I have a host I'll be looking for a good sponsor. I'll most likely be making a Blog, with RSS Feeds. Again I appreciate the help.
