Newbie!

[johnlp]

Please indulge me as a Newbie to the board.
I am looking to create a site, was originally thinking a Tube site but as I have read it seems that might not be the best site to build. But my first steps are understanding the dos and don't of this industry, what laws I need to make sure I do not violate (obvious Copyright laws, CP etc.) What is a good resource to know what the laws are for the State of Texas, what is the best way to obtain content (if I am not going to produce my own at first). The niche i am looking to cover is female webcam masturbation / girlfriend videos etc. either authenticly shot or made to look so.
I am looking at affilates programs right now as a start but the bottomline is that I am wet behind the ears and completely new to this. So before i go fuck myself, can any of you offer some guideance to help a new guy find his way in this world? Much appreciated in advance.

go fuck yourself

Welcome.Yeah,the tube sites are fucked for life. My personal suggestion is to start with a bunch of handwritten blogs.They bring the income a little bit easier than others.Good luck with your new project.

[bmchunu]

Tubes are not fucked .. they are just probably harder to run and potentially more expensive to set up if you are hosting the videos yourself.

The question is what do you want to do?

Do you want to write about 7-10 X 200 word blog posts per week?
Do you want to review, tag and write tittle for videos?
Do you want to create and submit galleries? ... etc.
Also what type of porn sites do you like??

Hello John and welcome to GFY

Hi John, and welcome to the club.

With regard to the law, you should become familiar with 18 USC 2257 et seq, which deals with the record-keeping and notice requirements. For full-text and summaries, see sig below.

As for Texas in particular, you might want to consult with Texas counsel.

Best of luck

There are a lot of sites out there with tons of info to help you out. Your best bet is to read up on everything. Don't start anything until you know exactly what you are doing.

READ...READ....READ!!!

Good luck!

Thank you all for the warm welcomes and advise.

Question (rather clarification)..


Is a user submission site synonymous with "Tube Site"? How do Tube Site bypass the 18 USC 2257 et seq, or do they?

Thanks!

Welcome to GFY!

tube sites and user submission sites are pretty much the same, the USC is responsibility of the 'uploader'

welcome to the zoo...!

[deserv]

I think the best is to start with blogs and customize the content you want your visitors to see

What documentation are we required to retain on user submission? Do we keep the email on file? Can anyone recomment a good hosting site for adult content?

Thanks,
John

Welcome to the board!

Don't go biggie on your first time tho... start small, learn the how to's, stack up some cash, then expand.

Competing with the big boys without any experience to back you up costs money... unless you got lots of 'em to burn
