Investing 100k into the web - What would you do?

Escort biz said it was 50k for one site. She uses ccbill so has one expnse less. but she also does a 500% return a year according to the stats i saw.

you are missing contnet management software, security software, affilaite rep. and other stuff i have no clue on.

Let's do some math based on your idea:

You've got: $100k

You need: Five niche sites, affiliate program, promotional tools, hosting, etc.

Major costs: (all just guesses, feel free to rip them up)

-Building of the sites: Do it yourself? If not, say $5k.

-Creation of all promotional material (20 x hosted tgp galleries, banners, other shit for each site, as well as a bunch of 30-second tgp/main tour-friendly movie trailers from your best content) I'll guess $3k.

-License affiliate software: Just going to use CCBill crap? If not, say $5k.

-Shoot 50 exclusive niche scenes (10 scenes per site) and license another 300 DVD/home-shot scenes (60 scenes per site). Avg licensed bulk scene = $25 per scene. Avg semi-exclusive private shoot scene = $500/ea.? Never had one shot myself, no idea here. If these numbers work, you're at $7.5k for the licensed content and say $25k for the 50 exclusives.

-100mbps Hosting: Has to be Tier 1 I'd assume, say $35 per mbs, so $3.5k for the first month. Also assume you're going to be doing free hosted movie galleries, if not, you could reduce this figure.

Let's see where we are so far.

Sites - $5k
Promos - $3k
Backend Affiliate Software - $5k
Content - $32.5k
Hosting - $3.5k

TOTAL - $49k

So we're at nearly $50k, and there is no traffic yet for either the sites, or the affiliate program.

Questions:

1. What am I missing?

2. How many affiliates could $50k buy in terms of advertising on webmaster boards, etc. Never been involved in one myself, wouldn't even know where to start, but say GFY/Ynot/etc. Typical avenues.

Answer those two questions and you can then take the average affiliate signups per day figure (3?) and figure out gross rev.

$32.5k on Content. Man you got no clue what you are talking about.
Rather spend $30k on Promotion and only $5.5k on content non-exclusive content. Why waste so many money on content when it's only your first 5 sites. An affiliate program is for the long run, IF it turns out to be successful you can always invest in NEW reality/exclusive sites.

What you are missing? Promo tools, Affiliate program design, $750 visa fee, the 2257 management, text writers for tos/faqs, domains and a whole lot more. Take security software like StrongBox it's only $100 yet it adds up.

Ok enough for now.

umm for a high quality paysite 30k on content isn't even much
the opposite is the case
many of the big programs spend 60k on exclusive content before they open a new paysite

For that amount of money you can get a custom built mainstream content network with many supporting traffic feeds. Income streams = text ads, ebooks, mainstream product affiliate upsells, your own niche product upsells, etc. Put the power of outsourcing to MULTIPLY the purchasing value of your $100K or whatever budget you have.

Why waste 30k on content on your first 5 paysites if you have no have (as slapass said) no knowlegde of the business. For $5k or anything you can buy massive amounts of content/plugins your surfer likes aswell.

You mentioned big programs, he's a individual with $100k to invest

EscortBiz starts with 25 scenes exclusive per site, plus non-exclusive content as filler. He (not she, I've met him ) wants at least 3 months updates before he opens. My ex-partner and I shot a bunch of sites for him, including his first, badtushy.com.

run.. i would run run run

So far here is where we are -

TGP - I need a full automated textlink TGP. I will feed it with my 404 traffic. Which is about 10k a day. Add in SE traffic(small) and trades within my network.
I have design and domain. Script to rotate 1500(more?) FHG links on a daily baisis? Free - $500.
Trade script - I would prefer to skip this part. but would use a free one if I felt the need.

Stock market - 20k, no one is talking stocks. everyone suggest real estate etc. This is reason enough to buy. US market is also at a 7 year low on PE.

Leaves me with me with 79.5k to continue discussion.

I also need the script above anyone know of something that does that?

I just want to correct you.
I suggested the stock market hehe
