Well done for being a criminal and making money and boasting about it!
Yes I had the balls to do that, it was easier then because of less competition. Even so selling to magazines was legal, selling videos abroad was legal and both these sectors needed a higher level than online.

12 or more years ago it was very easy to get online and sell to surfers. Even though ratios were poor the abundance of surfers made it look good. Many died off and went back to day jobs. Those who survived learned a lot, yet the content was secondary to driving traffic. Today getting huge numbers of surfers to a free site is easy for most. Getting one of them to buy something is very hard.

And that's what this thread is about. As you know nothing about this subject, because you're unable to even advise them on good pictures to use. I advise you to run along now.
