Advice Please...

[ayne468]

Ok I need some advice! Here's the deal...

...I have learnt heaps since I stumbled upon this board in Jan and first got interested in the industry, it has been great. I have given up domaining, and have now started up my first adult blog.

But sometimes I wonder whether I am on the right track or not? Basically I want some of you guys opinions on the best way for someone like me (somewhat clueless) to get a good income flowing! What do you think the easiest way to make money in this industry is? What's the best way? Basically what direction should I take?

The trouble is I have hardly any money to rub together at the moment, so can't have any big outlays, I have been kind of looking for something that would give me a quick cash injection so that I could then look into investing in bigger things?

I know I am probably going to get given heaps of shit in this thread (to be expected on GFY)...however I would really appreciate some solid advice too!

Thanks in advance

WTF you prick!

Come on man! Walmart is now offering benefits! That's much more lucrative.

All kidding aside:

Do you have any traffic right now?
What kind of site are you planning on operating?
Do you have a good domain?

Well...the blog that I have at the moment has some traffic that I bought from traffic-out and it is a porn review site with a fairly good domain (not a totally crap one anyway).

But I am thinking maybe there is more money to be made in ways other than blogs?

Is a porn review site really what you want to do?

Or you don't know? That seems pretty saturated if you ask me

You are probably right! I just want to do something that is going to let me see a small amount of a return right away and that I can build up to a greater return...any ideas?

Sounds to me like your making no money.

you might want to reevaluate your business, and step up what your doing or move into another media.

How much traffic is your site reciveing? You may want to work on ad networks (Learn them) and build an exchange network to boost your incoming traffic

Also, reevealuate your site. If it looks and operates like shit ////Your gonna wanna change it.

What would you say the best way to get quality traffic is?

[youngnat]

Its simple, Have quality content! Do you have that at least?

If you have that the next step is market, build partners and referal traffic. do whatever you have to do...

are you willing to work or is this a hobby?

[ayne468]

I am willing to work...I just want to know that I am not barking up the wrong tree (so to speak)

Only you can decide that.

If its your business and you love it then you'll dedicate your life to it and you'll be a huge success!

If your wishy washy then you'll fail!

You first need to decide if this is the way your going to make your living and you need to stand by that decision. Then you have to seek direction.

Sounds to me like you really need some career guidance.

To answer your questions firmly, I can't! Through this whole thread you didn't give your blog to review and your didn't acknowledge your traffic base so to truly help I won't be of any value.

Unfortunately that is one thing I wouldn't want to do
