    Is WebFather smart for making porno.com a typical landing page?

    I absolutely don't think so.

    The guy could buy and sell most people on this board. There aren't too many smarter than him.
    All the best to you

      I guess he would know since he knows how much he makes from it.

            I rather think he just had the right idea at the right time. Just having some money doesn't mean anything.

              This is the way he works..

              He has a price, the months when he doesnt get that price he does that landing page..

              why? Cuz he doesnt want to work.. and he still makes money off that page.

              Easy, simple..

                exactly. But in the meanwhile he's losing hundreds of thousands. Sorry, but such kind of laziness is very close to utter dumbness.

                  Rick goes way deeper than being a guy with money in a lucky space of time.

                  This man knows business and studies the hell out of it. He's a fascinating person to listen to and read posts from - way more analytical than many. Dares to look further than today and has laser vision on the bottom line. This isn't brown-nose stuff.. this is real shit.. I respect the man in a big way.

                  He's the reason I'm alive today quite honestly.
                  All the best to you

                    Hi Bluff, I am back from reading.

                    And yes, I think he is smart doing that, although it may seem that he isn't.
                    I don't use ICQ anymore.

                        I would believe he's smart in general, but I see no single reason to do it this way

                        i mean - a page like milf.com is okay, but porno.com is just worthless

                            Send him an email if you believe you can make more money from his traffic and most probably he'll sell it to you. Im confident you won't turn the same profitability for many reasons most people fail to see.

                              well he is kicking hell out of porn.com. oops porn.com finally displays stuff in the US. Still a 404 page but it has ads. And xxx.com is selling toolbars. Sort of makes you wonder how good one of those damins is.

                                      I don't find it fair that I should share whole my knowledge with you, but what you find out for yourself, you never share with me.

                                      Yes, I can turn on ICQ but it will take me 5 minutes again....and soon I am going offline anyway.
                                      I don't use ICQ anymore.

                                          This was just too good to resist.

                                          Do YOU know the deal I have?
                                          Do YOU know what option package I have?
                                          Do YOU know how many businesses I have?
                                          Do YOU know how many domains I own?
                                          Do YOU know how much real estate I own?
                                          Do YOU know how many domains I am developing?
                                          Do YOU know the domains I purchased last month?
                                          Do YOU even have a clue?

                                          Maybe you shouldn't talk out of your ass. Never know how close folks can be. But carry on, the whole industry can watch you make a fool out of yourself.

                                          Besides, losing hundreds of thousands is nothing when you make millions to replace it. Don't confuse laziness with working smart. I think my work reward ratio is among the highest.

                                                Out of the mouth of morons.

                                                This was just too good to resist.

                                                Do YOU know the deal I have?
                                                Do YOU know what option package I have?
                                                Do YOU know how many businesses I have?
                                                Do YOU know how many domains I own?
                                                Do YOU know how much real estate I own?
                                                Do YOU know how many domains I am developing?
                                                Do YOU know the domains I purchased last month?
                                                Do YOU even have a clue?

                                                Maybe you shouldn't talk out of your ass. Never know how close folks can be. But carry on, the whole industry can watch you make a fool out of yourself.

                                                Besides, losing hundreds of thousands is nothing when you make millions to replace it. Don't confuse laziness with working smart. I think my work reward ratio is among the highest.

                                                No I don't know the details of your business, and honestly this thread was made to provocate. But still - outsource a design job to a designer, which involves one quarter of work, I'd say this would make your domain perform significantly better. And if you think porno.com is performing at its top, why do you feel so insulted when a 'moron' like me is making such a thread? If you have to spend your time well why are you surfing GFY for such threads?

                                                        Give me $2 million for porno.com and you can lease it for all of 2006 (Sorry 2005 is already booked) and whatever extra you make is yours!

                                                        lmk when you want the wire instructions.

                                                        Then we can discuss deals for the other 5000 domains.

                                                          Thanks for the offer, but I can't accept that. And btw I didn't know you were currently leasing it

                                                          If so, sorry for any false accusations

                                                          On to the current leaser (if it is currenly being leased): why doesn't he 'develop' it?

Who wants to deal with processors and designs and conversion ratios and so on if they don't have to in order to make the same money?

But yet - it makes me wonder. If someone can make 2 million a year on such a crappy landing page - one that virtually all internet users have been made numb to - why doesn't he hire a designer and get a better design? No work involved.

Creative criticism is allright, but you fucks think you have the right to tell people what to do with their property.

                                                                                      He has more than the money, obviously.

But yet - it makes me wonder. If someone can make 2 million a year on such a crappy landing page - one that virtually all internet users have been made numb to - why doesn't he hire a designer and get a better design? No work involved.

                                                                                          Shit takes time to plan, organize and develop. Would you "develop" something, just to please others? or would you hold out until that "master plan" can take off?

                                                                                          There's so many factors, and it all points to the bottom line which is it's NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS. Creative criticism is allright, but you fucks think you have the right to tell people what to do with their property.
                                                                                          blablabla "none of your fucking business" blablabla

Why can't I make such a thread to provocate? I haven't seen one single good answer to my question in here. And before talking about development, check my earlier posts.

You love to make that claim but you seem to be missing a few pieces of that puzzle as well, pal. I don't own anything, I don't run anything, I do sales for a couple of things on a commission basis.

                                                                                                So stop flirting and go back to pestering Webfather, or I'll really turn my evil eye on you.
