Personally I have gained independence through adult as well as mainstream. Since this is adult I will simply discuss what made me the most money in the adult industry.
Through adult affiliate programs is how I achieved the ability to be self-employed.
The best affiliate program is, yes you guessed it,
Friend Finder Inc.
Friend Finder Inc. offers the webmaster MANY opportunities to garner success. Not only through the popular
Adult Friend Finder, but also through other sites like
ALT,
Passion, and even
Gay FriendFinder.
The other affiliate program that helped me achieve independence is
Spa Cash.
Spa Cash offers over 50 sites in 10 languages. So not only can you advertise with English sites, you can advertise on sites with French, Italian, and Spanish language traffic.
Spa Cash even offers a messenger service so you can communicate with fellow webmasters easily; my contact name is 427890 if you want to talk.
So if you want to run your own business with limitless profitability then
Friend Finder Inc. and
Spa Cash are your best bets for independence.
Fellow self-employed adult webmasters, how have you gained your independence?
