    First money you made on the web

    How did you first make money off the web???

    Here's mine:

    Back in 97 I figured out how to rank web pages high in AltaVista results since they used to index pages instantly as you submit them.. A company paid me $300 a month and I had them #1 results for keywords 'auction' and 'computer auction'. Not bad considering I was only 15 at the time. If only I could go back in time knowing what I know now. ahhhhhhhhhhh

            1995.... I was running a free bikini site that had some decent traffic. Some guy offered to pay me $1k for a banner to his preggo site. He sent me a check, and I put it up there for a month. Worked so well the next month he gave me $2k for two banners. This went on for about six months.

            I was hooked.

                          Back in 96, soph in high school, I ran a decent sized internet security site. First money I made was through Amazon.com's affiliate program, made like 80 bucks or so.

                          Now I'm about to graduate college, have my own corporation, and am ready to start full-time. I love my job!

                                  I sold an ad, I can't even remember what, pretty early on, on my goth webzine I ran in highschool back in like '96. Wasn't a lot of money, though.

                                      A site called 'Amateur Hardcore' set up an affiliate program they paid good then Serge paid me a fortune.

                                      I thank god for Scott PB, John Atherton and all the other Austrailians. The big money in porn was made in Austrailia not America.

                                              My first check was in 1997 from some site called Age Check aka CyberAge. It was a regular sized check though. I thought they would send me a huge one like they do on TV when people win the lottery or a golf tournament. But no, just a regular sized check. I bought beer with it.

                                              So the equation is:
                                              AgeCheck = CyberAge = Beer
                                              ...
