    New guy here, need a direction

    Hello guys well I've been using the internet for about 10 years and for the entire time I have been trying to make money. Not to say I haven't I've done alright for myself but I've never reached the goal I intended was for a residual income type operation where I could sit back and let the business take care of itself.

    Anyways I came here and I want to get into the adult website business. I want to try my hand at referrals and all that stuff that you guys seem to be into. I have been lurking around the site for a few weeks absorbing what I can, and I've started installing a TGP script but I'm still really unsure as to what exactly is going on on a TGP.

    The galleries come from other sites, but are those sites all linked to one referral system? And how does traffic trading work? I know this is alot to ask but I was hoping I could maybe get a little bit from a bunch of people, fuck anything is better than being as stuck as I am now.

    Another question I have is with domain names, are .com really that much more important/valuable than say .info? Or .org, .net? How important is that, if I am building a site on lets say big fat chicks and I can find bigfatchicks.info but not .com but the .com isn't an active site, is it worth it to build the site with the .info or should I try to find a .com and sort of work the content into the keywords without the help of the domain?

      For a TGP, yes I'd say a easy to remember .com is kinda important. Personally if it was me starting fresh today, I'd start with blogs. Blogs will allow you to get started with virtually no investment and it's very simple to build and run them.

      I would still do a TGP but I wouldn't make it your main deal right off the bat, because you will likely get discouraged. Start building blogs and use a mix of sponsor provided RSS feeds and your own unique posts.

      You can get wordpress for free and it's fine for building blogs, but if you build a bunch of them it can really slow down your server. Personally I use Blogs Organizer because it makes running a lot of blogs very easy, but it's not free.

      That's the key with blogs IMO, do them in bulk. You get 50 blogs that do on average of 1k - 2k a day in traffic and you will be making a decant income. Much better than a 50k-100k day TGP.

      You can then use the blogs to help feed traffic to your TGP, which will make growing it much easier.

      Also, start out promoting by Pay Per Sale, because you will get bigger checks faster. For instance check my sig and sign up at HighDefRiches.com because they pay $40 a sale and have awesome sites. Once you have a little income coming in, start mixing in revshare so you can get some recurring income going.

      Just remember nothing is going to come fast and it will take a little while before you start making any money.

        awesome advice, yes I think I am going to start out with a few blogs, I'm going to center around 2 different niches, tribbing and armpit fetishes, i know tribbing is a weird word but when you find out what it means youll never forget it!

        anyways is there any good tutorials or good places to go to find out more about wordpress blogs?

                  Should the blog have RSS content or does it have to be manually entered?

                    Use a mix of both. Personally most of my blogs are unique content, but there are only so many you can update yourself unless you hire others. So it's always good to take advantage of sponsor provided RSS feeds because they will automatically update your blog.

                    You can have your quality blogs that are manual updates and then have a bunch of others that are just RSS feeds.

                      Welcome to GFY!

                      That is great advice for a newbie. I'd also recommend having a unique blog layout, don't settle for one of the generic Wordpress designs. You can of course design your own blog or take a peek at some existing themes.

                      Also for tutorials on Wordpress check out Wordpress Tutorials (subscription) or just scour through the Wordpress website. They have a ton of information that should be sufficient to start you off with.

                      Once you get a blog or two up and running then you should also join Thunder-Ball.net for free. You can trade hardlinks with other webmasters and keep track of your trades. Check out my sig below to see what a profile looks like.

                      Best of luck with your new ventures!
