How much money did you start with when you opened your first site? How much of that money did you actually use, and has you investment paid off so far? I started with around $3000, and am really just getting started. Let's hear your stories.

We bought our own telecom equipment and invested heavily into marketing for our adult pay-per-call business so it was in the 6 fig range back in the mid 80's.

Hmm. I strated shooting content having $1'000 and an old digital camera I bought on the auction of used goods... That seems to be more than many of you had when started, but this is really nothing when it's about content production...Comment

When I started my first AVS site I just used "public domain" content from newsgroups ... so capital requirements were pretty low

As a model... $0
As a scout/agent... $150 & a $300 good faith finders fee from photographer Ron Vogel. It lasted me a week in Vegas for CES. I came back to LA with 6 models.
As a webmaster $1000 ($750 went to Visa) and 3 years worth of content.
It's all paying off now.Comment

Had nothing when I first started out.
I couldn't pay my bills irl either, but a friend of mine had a server where he would host my first site, I did the design myself but had another friend do the programming behind it. Suddenly it took off and I am not living happily ever after (right?!)

Well, you can't really start with 0.
Surely you must have had a computer, an internet connection, some software etc.
Unless of course you designed your first adult site in a public library ...Does anyone look down here?Comment

Fuck how I wish I had done this back in college. I actually had a nice domain name and a $15 hosting package while I was working in the corp world back in 96. I even bought some content from zipcontent and made some galleries. That shit looked ugly but it was a site, not a paysite, just a free site, I added some galleries too it. But fuck I didn't know what I was doing I got busy with work and was making money at work and eventually let my hosting cancel like 3 months later and the domain expire after the year. Fuck if I had just kept the domain and basic hosting for these 8 years that site would be massive.Originally posted by quiet

But back on the subject, I was employed my first go around and only invested about $50 or so.
The second time a few years back I started with about $100 and bought a domain and hosting and used sponsor content and made avs sites.Comment
