    Yes Im a Newbie. Can I make money just as an Affiliate

    Im a succesful bick and mortar guy which includes a strip club and real estate related businesses. But im fascinated by the adult online business and want to make some money while learning it. Someone give me your opinion on this:

    Developing several niche blogs that drive traffic to affiliates. I would plan to drive traffic to the niche blogs from specific niche related youtube teaser videos. does this make any sense at all?

    to me it seems like a very non capital intensive way to learn the business and generate some revenue.

    I would love some feedback

    Go for it, you can't lose much money that way. Just make sure you read all palicy agreements with youtube, your sponsor, your host etc. and know the pertinent laws.
    Sleep well, and dream of large women.

      You own a strip club, etc..

      Why would you want to be an affiliate?

      Being a webmaster that makes money off sales can make you money.

      IF you have traffic, good domains etc....That shit aint easy.. Unless you want to pay out your ass and MAYBE see zero returns...

        Welcome to GFY, if you are patient and develop some search engine chops there IS money to be made.

        I say this because one of my top earners was a newbie 6 months ago, found a niche not too exposed and worked it (work it) to death!

        Choose niches you like (I can only look at so many shemales images in a life) and spend as much time reading old threads on various boards,

        Feel free to hit me up, no illusions, no bs.

        Always excited by the developmental process, and this business (next to music) is the one that is (usually) most fun.

        And sometimes y'all get to see tits, serious like!

              That's the way I got started, with blogs and TGP submissions. Now 4 years later I'm running an affiliate program. As mentioned before, make sure you choose a good niche that isn't too saturated. Hit me up with any questions you have

                    That makes no sense. If I was doing "very well" in something I'd simply branch out with my knowledge and replicate what I was doing in different markets.

                        it's like anything else, knowledge, smarts, and alot of hard work are keys, and a little bit of good luck and being in the right place at the right time never hurts either

                        internet business tends to be pretty consuming, remember, alot of people spend 16 hours a day every day doing something to be successful, especially so for the first year or two.... like any business though, once you have things running smoothly for a couple years it can get easier if you knew what you were doing in setting things up, just like a brick and mortar business... although the internet has alot of change and external forces that can destroy the best laid plans overnight (or in some rare cases blow them up into a billion dollar fortune)



                        the club and real estate businesses tend to be very people oriented businesses, which is pretty opposite from the affiliate side of this business (being a solitary in front of a computer 18 hours a day kind of thing)... if your strengths are more in the sales and people side of things you might want to reconsider and go hard on something that suits those strengths more

                        just some thoughts, best of luck with whatever you do

                          Invite experienced webmasters into your strip club and gather knowledge from them ;)
                          Webmasters maybe make good money but not much of them getting laid

                            Really, considering your background, it makes no sense to enter the porn biz as a low key affiliate.

                            It is very likely that you'll waste lots of time and earn next to nothing.

                            Unless you've got some hidden talents and will outsmarten all the SE guru's and get top positions in Google ;)

                            But really, stay away. Strip clubs, real estate, that's much more serious biz than wasting your time in front of the PC writing some niche blog posts...

                                Jens Van Assterdam?

                                I don't know him much, but he said that he has lots of other background in mainstream internet....

                                He's the exception, not the rule.

                                This guy here has background in real estate and running a strip club, and not in getting visitors to his sites

                                So I repeat, it is very likely that his time spent on this will be totally wasted.

                                    I'd be interested in hearing what you have to say about blogs if you have the time. I added you on ICQ. I'm planning on building 3 at the moment along with the solo girl paysite I have.

                                      Welcome to GFY

                                      Your plans sound really good... as a noob stay away from SEO and link trading and buy traffic to your sites. If you can get dating traffic to your sites you should do ok... the conversion rate should be good... don't buy tgp/mgp traffic because most of it is "CJ" traffic, basically junk quality non converting traffic... be careful who you listen to for advice on GFY, however, keep an open mind... there are some real pros here and they might hook you up...

                                      Good luck,
                                      sig too big

                                        If I owned a strip club the last thing i'd be thinking about would be opening up websites based on affiliate programs...

                                        I might build a site and promote or crossell other peoples stuff but it won't be the basis of me being in business...

                                        Strip club owners have unlimited source of pussy and etc.

                                              Beeing a strip club owner I would go more toward cams/dating stuff.

                                              For every girl at the club who wants to start doing cam shows, you build mini sites for every girl with a couple pics, description, link to cam site profile... give them business cards with the name of the site on it for their clients.

                                              You can also use their content to submit galleries and generate sales to the cam site.

                                              You could also easily start a studio... with girls working at the bar promoting the site to their clients giving camshows.

                                                Becoming an internet success is easy. The following formula is simple and has been mastered by many of the people here on GFY...

                                                Step 1. Find GFY
                                                Step 2. Ask common newbie questions that GFY regulars will ridicule you for
                                                Step 3. Become offended and tell everyone off
                                                Step 4. Apologize publicly on GFY for step 3
                                                Step 5. Post between 20-30 meaningless posts per day so you up your post count but keep a low profile at the same time (eg-become a contest whore)
                                                Step 6. After a 2-3 month period of step 5, switch your attitude to know-it-all prick that talks down to the newbs AND the vets
                                                Step 7. Post screencaps of your millions to those that question you


                                                You're on your way...you've found GFY. The next steps aren't that hard. Read, watch and learn. You'll be a GFY success story in no time.

                                                  You nailed this one! I totaly agree.

                                                  He should skip the affiliate stuff completely.

                                                  ShiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiTTTTTTTTTT!!!!! If he can get the domain name as the name of his club and promote that with cams, his regular customers will blow the site up.

                                                    Yes you can make money as an affiliate! It takes patience and hard work. Lots of link trading and seo work. You can do it! Sometimes it can be up and sometimes it can be really down. Good luck! And see sig for a great program that also has rss feeds for your blog :-)

                                                        Focus on making your strip club more profitable. You can make some money online but in reality that boat came and went out many times. The roi of your time compared to the other things you have will be poor.

                                                          I want to make money in this business not because i need the money but rather because the money is the measure of my success. when i was in college i got a degree in English Literature not because i thought i could use it to make money or because i knew english lit really well. I did it to learn somethng i knew very little about.

                                                          do you get what i mean??

                                                                      Step 1. Find GFY
                                                                      Step 2. Ask common newbie questions that GFY regulars will ridicule you for
                                                                      Step 3. Become offended and tell everyone off
                                                                      Step 4. Apologize publicly on GFY for step 3
                                                                      Step 5. Post between 20-30 meaningless posts per day so you up your post count but keep a low profile at the same time (eg-become a contest whore)
                                                                      Step 6. After a 2-3 month period of step 5, switch your attitude to know-it-all prick that talks down to the newbs AND the vets
                                                                      Step 7. Post screencaps of your millions to those that question you


                                                                      You're on your way...you've found GFY. The next steps aren't that hard. Read, watch and learn. You'll be a GFY success story in no time.

                                                                        I say this because one of my top earners was a newbie 6 months ago, found a niche not too exposed and worked it (work it) to death!

                                                                        Choose niches you like (I can only look at so many shemales images in a life) and spend as much time reading old threads on various boards,

                                                                        Feel free to hit me up, no illusions, no bs.

                                                                        Always excited by the developmental process, and this business (next to music) is the one that is (usually) most fun.

                                                                        And sometimes y'all get to see tits, serious like!

                                                                                        Step 1. Find GFY
                                                                                        Step 2. Ask common newbie questions that GFY regulars will ridicule you for
                                                                                        Step 3. Become offended and tell everyone off
                                                                                        Step 4. Apologize publicly on GFY for step 3
                                                                                        Step 5. Post between 20-30 meaningless posts per day so you up your post count but keep a low profile at the same time (eg-become a contest whore)
                                                                                        Step 6. After a 2-3 month period of step 5, switch your attitude to know-it-all prick that talks down to the newbs AND the vets
                                                                                        Step 7. Post screencaps of your millions to those that question you


                                                                                        You're on your way...you've found GFY. The next steps aren't that hard. Read, watch and learn. You'll be a GFY success story in no time.

Every day there are hundreds of guys waking up and thinking, hey I can make millions selling porn online, they invest months of work and invest money just to make a couple of sales and then they give up, ofcourse they never reach minimum and the sponsor keeps all the money.

                                                                                          The ones here telling you otherwise and giving false hope are either sponsor reps or trying to sell you something. There is money in porn - but not as an affiliate.

Of course there's money in being a affiliate but you have to work smart and hard. And about the minimum payout. I have to agree. A lot of people will drop out of this biz just because they can't reach the minimum payout within a week or so. They all think it's easy money. But it's a good thing. The last thing the interwebz need is more adult websites (except my sites of course).
