    Idea for those thinking of selling their sites or people looking for work.

    Well I think it's a good idea.

    There are more and more people looking for an exit and people looking for work. So why not put the two together.

    Rather than close your site or sell it for a few months turn over. Let one of the guys looking for work run it and spend a few hours or a few days keeping it up to date. Splitting the profits by what ever input the new person is putting into it.

    Anyone looking for work, can make anyone looking to sell an offer to run the site for a split of the profits.

    I'm pretty sure there are a few here who would love the chance to to get a few more years out of a site or some extra income.

    Yes I'm open to offers.

              Sorry had to go for breakfast. So will finish the post.

              After 4 years of doing nothing much on our sites they're still taking money and will continue to do so for a while yet. For what ever someone would of offered 4 years ago, selling them off would of been a huge mistake.

              Could Shap of made more money handing the sites over for someone to run on minimal work, rather than selling out? Don't know for sure and not in anyway criticising him, just saying selling it off for a one time sum isn't good long term. Especially with so many looking for work.

              Obviously it can never be the same as it was, just asking if it's better than selling out?

              And someone looking for work with the skills, maybe they could run a network of sites. Devoting a few hours to each or more.

              This is only about maintaining the sites ticking over.

                  I think that in Shaps case, he made a TON of money when he sold. At least that's what I heard, but I'm a no-one in adult so wtf do I know.

                  Also some people might want to get out and raise capital to do something else, like something in mainstream. While they might be able to raise that cash by waiting X months, they might have an opportunity they need to move on right now. Guess only the sellers know why they sell really.
                  But.... I pulled out...

                      I'm not sure if you remember Sara Swirls site being down. It was 1 day from being *deleted*. Not put offline, erased. We just passed last year, year end, profit in july. It will be a lot more when both billing and some more keywords fall in place.

                      I have no idea why I am saying this to you. I actually have no idea what to do with your sites/content. Maybe a spoof of an old timer shooting porn and throwing in the old stuff for free. Kinda like a comedy spoof... Like fukt or something.

                          Agree, it would need a lot of verifying to give someone the keys to the door. Thinking of that might be the part the owner should retain.

                              From an affiliate and small site owner looking to gain experience in managing a big network/site this would be a great way to gain experience, but the trust issues wouldn't be one sided, I 'd be concerned that after a few months years or hard work the owner would pull the plug own the domain and content, so it would only work if both parties knew/trusted each other or had some for of legally binding in place.

                                  Actually not a bad idea, but don't really see it happening much. Webmasters looking for work usually need cash soon and people that are selling sites are doing so because they need to cash out. A website that would match people on both ends based on verified credentials might work.

                                      Who would cover the cost to run the site while a n00b is trying to run it?..
                                      If they're trying to sell it, this might not be such a great alternative for the original site owner.

                                              LOL at Paul thinking Shap was sitting at home updating his sites and not that it took and entire company with an office of people to accomplish it. Shows out of touch with reality Paul is.

                                                      I know a few people who are doing the same as me just putting their sites on auto pilot and letting them run. Some are cutting back on staff as well. Don't know of anyone who has adopted this idea though. Seems common sense and perhaps one person could build up a network of sites to run for the owners.

                                                              Of course this is a route for people who need fast cash. Only good for those like us who didn't and still don't. Which is strange for someone who was broke in 2004.

                                                              *************

                                                              Each site has different needs and ways it's run. Some like a Tube or advert related site might just need minimal work, some like like a paysite might need more work. Obviously this idea does not work for sites that still need a lot of investment to keep running. No more fresh content, or very little and just non exclusive. No major redesign or programming updates. Just the normal day to day running of a site that's already on the back burner. so the trust element is reduced to very low, the "worker" would not need access to servers or very limited.

                                                              I can only judge this from my experience and in the last four years we have done very little to www.paulmarkhamteens.com and www.astral-blue.com. I have some content I need to edit and put on Astral Blue, but in honesty can't be bothered. It would need very little "trust" for some one to do some work on keeping the sites running and up to date. And I think this applies to a lot of sites that are not surging forward or the owner is working on to keep it bringing in money.

                                                              Also as the content owner on a lot of paysites, I know what some of the offers are worth and the moment they discover the site doesn't include the content. The truth comes out, the sites are being sold for less the content is worth.

                                                                                          My network was pulling in around $2k or so a month, but I didn't have time to work on it. Found a few people to work on certain sites and in return, I would help them build traffic to their sites and they would get a % of the revenue from mine. This was worth their time since my sites were already making money.

                                                                                          I was finding them doing everything from creating fake sites that sent redirects through my traffic script to placing their affiliate links on banners and links. I had to spend more time baby sitting than anything else.

                                                                                          Comes down to only YOU can make money for YOU

                                                                                                  -->If I buy shares of a company X which has assets and liabilities, how would my shares be detached from some of such licenses?

                                                                                                  In other words: If bank X buys bank Y, the Windows licenses of bank Y are still valid. Why your content licenses would be different?
                                                                                                  Can you name me one online porn company that has shares?

                                                                                                  Apart from that minor detail your theory is solid.

                                                                                                                      My network was pulling in around $2k or so a month, but I didn't have time to work on it. Found a few people to work on certain sites and in return, I would help them build traffic to their sites and they would get a % of the revenue from mine. This was worth their time since my sites were already making money.

                                                                                                                      I was finding them doing everything from creating fake sites that sent redirects through my traffic script to placing their affiliate links on banners and links. I had to spend more time baby sitting than anything else.

                                                                                                                      Comes down to only YOU can make money for YOU
                                                                                                                      The thieves question has to be dealt with on an individual basis. As I said I wouldn't give people the keys to the shop without having absolute trust in them and that is hard to get. What would they need to keep the site running on a ticking over basis?

                                                                                                                      As for the work level, this is an alternative to selling off a site or just dropping it because it's not being worked on. If the people need baby sitting then what's the point?

                                                                                                                      Again, this is not an idea for people with sites they want to work on or are working on. It's an alternative to selling for a few months turn over.

                                                                                                                      No Paul, and unlike you, that stops me from commenting on if it was a good deal or not.

                                                                                                                      I try not to offer opinions based on zero information.

                                                                                                                      I'll leave that to you.
                                                                                                                      You said I didn't know. I said it probably wasn't what he would of made leaving it to run down over the years. Now unless he has a deal that includes a monthly payout, who do you think is probably right?

                                                                                                                      Once again Paul, you have no clue. Every corporation has shares. They may be privately held but can still be traded and sold.
                                                                                                                      Then the part of the license that bans transfer of the license comes into effect.

                                                                                                                      Why should someone buy an asset for their companyfor $30, that they can resell? If they want that, let them buy exclusive.

                                                                                                                              Paul, I'm confused (or, possibly, one of us is confused).

                                                                                                                              Besides the fact that some adult companies are publicly traded (as pointed out by Colmike7) the larger point is that basically EVERY FUCKING COMPANY has shares, not matter if they are public or not. The only exception being the sort of one-man operations with special statuses as "sole proprietorship" and the like, which in most legislations means that you are liable with your personal assets for the company fortunes.

                                                                                                                              You can't do business, let alone process payments or have a merchant account, if you don't have some type of business registration. Almost always, unless you are willing to risk your personal ass, this means that you have shares you can sell or buy.

                                                                                                                              Your theory fell apart in so many places.

What above is not much of a theory, though, it's just how it works. I'm very much willing learn where I am wrong (no irony, it's something I have a practical interest in)

                                                                                                                                  It's possible, Paul. What above is not much of a theory, though, it's just how it works. I'm very much willing learn where I am wrong (no irony, it's something I have a practical interest in)
                                                                                                                                  Yes as I said before. Then the transfer of the license or company to another owner comes into place.

                                                                                                                                  The license covers all the possibilities possible. It's intention is to license the buyer and stop him from selling the license, which is part of the companies assets, to other people. Otherwise it ends up as a huge mess.

                                                                                                                                  I expect people to stick to the license they agreed to when the bought the license. All they have to do is get the new buyer to contact us for a new license and a small admin charge.

                                                                                                                                  Maybe this explains it better.

                                                                                                                                  Licensee agrees to pay to Licensor one-time lifetime fee for this Product(s). Of $0. The Licensor may (or will) revoke the license if any of the terms or conditions of this license are violated, if Licensee declares bankruptcy, sells or closes the business, obtains a refund of the product or fails to pay. Involuntary revocation of the license does not grant Licensee any refund of the payment made. This license is not transferable, WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE LICENSOR. All sales are final and no refunds could be given unless Licensor will decide to give a refund. Licensee must provide a complete list of ten domains in which material is to be used. This list is to be returned to Licensor along with the license agreement.

We find out later So all your objections are mute in these cases.

It works like that in Canada.

                                                                                                                                              ... is IRRELEVANT in the case of a company share sale/ share transfer.

                                                                                                                                              When you are licencing to Faponthis LTD, it's not the shareholders being licensed, it's Faponthis LTD.
                                                                                                                                              Mr. Brown and Mr White, the shareholders of Faponthis, cannot use the content themselves, nor they can of course sublicence anything. That would be a violation of the license.

                                                                                                                                              WHEN Mr. Red buys shares of Faponthis (1%, 10% or 100%, doesn't matter), it's STILL Faponthis the licensee, no matter who are the shareholders. Faponthis continues to operate its business. It does not need to buy new Windows licenses, or get a new rent contract, just because some shareholder has changed.

                                                                                                                                              This is how it works in any area of business. Anything else would be crazy, because it would effectively make any company share trade impossible.

                                                                                                                                              I don't know if you managed to put in your particular license any different clause. Certainly, the language that you are quoting from that license does NOT require any license repurchase just because some shareholders change.

                                                                                                                                              If someone has lost the license papers, of course, it's a total different game. It does not invalidate what above. You can obviously exploit such sloppiness if you want to. It doesn't look to me like a business model that would bring you on top of the world, but good luck with it

"traffic generation", "internet marketing", "entertainment services" etc, are the keywords they tend to use.

It works like that in Canada.

An entity, in this case a business, not a business owner or a person bought the licence. Its none of your business to know who owns the business and if new share holders buys shares.

                                                                                                                                                                          There are more and more people looking for an exit and people looking for work. So why not put the two together.

                                                                                                                                                                          Rather than close your site or sell it for a few months turn over. Let one of the guys looking for work run it and spend a few hours or a few days keeping it up to date. Splitting the profits by what ever input the new person is putting into it.

                                                                                                                                                                          Anyone looking for work, can make anyone looking to sell an offer to run the site for a split of the profits.

                                                                                                                                                                          I'm pretty sure there are a few here who would love the chance to to get a few more years out of a site or some extra income.

                                                                                                                                                                          Yes I'm open to offers.

Some are cutting back on staff as well. Don't know of anyone who has adopted this idea though. Seems common sense and perhaps one person could build up a network of sites to run for the owners.

An entity, in this case a business, not a business owner or a person bought the licence. Its none of your business to know who owns the business and if new share holders buys shares.
                                                                                                                                                                                  So selling the shares isn't selling the business. Got you.

                                                                                                                                                                                  The Licensor may (or will) revoke the license if any of the terms or conditions of this license are violated, if Licensee declares bankruptcy, sells or closes the business
                                                                                                                                                                                  Will need to rewrite this part to make the spirit of the license clearer to people who are looking for ways to ignore it.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Please, re-read my post. I never said i knew how much Shap sold for.

                                                                                                                                                                                  However I know on how many months of profit manwin base their price and how much gaytube makes monthly. You can quote me on this.
                                                                                                                                                                                  Great then all we do is quote you what Manwin paid for the Tube site alone. This idea would include Tube sites. 3 years profit on a Tube site seems a very good deal, more people should open them.

                                                                                                                                                                                  This idea was to give those without the option of having someone like Manwin offer them 3 years profit on any site, another option. Is that so bad?

                                                                                                                                                                                  4 years after stopping really working on Paul Markham Teens we made 4556 Euros in sign ups, yes I have a screen grab, but you'll shout Photoshop so won't bother to post it. Sorry wrong on that, it was only CCbill so add a few for Epoch. So selling out for 3-6 months turnover isn't worth the bother.

It works like that in Canada.

Only good for those like us who didn't and still don't. Which is strange for someone who was broke in 2004.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Each site has different needs and ways it's run. Some like a Tube or advert related site might just need minimal work, some like like a paysite might need more work. Obviously this idea does not work for sites that still need a lot of investment to keep running. No more fresh content, or very little and just non exclusive. No major redesign or programming updates. Just the normal day to day running of a site that's already on the back burner. so the trust element is reduced to very low, the "worker" would not need access to servers or very limited.

                                                                                                                                                                                          I can only judge this from my experience and in the last four years we have done very little to www.paulmarkhamteens.com and www.astral-blue.com. I have some content I need to edit and put on Astral Blue, but in honesty can't be bothered. It would need very little "trust" for some one to do some work on keeping the sites running and up to date. And I think this applies to a lot of sites that are not surging forward or the owner is working on to keep it bringing in money.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Also as the content owner on a lot of paysites, I know what some of the offers are worth and the moment they discover the site doesn't include the content. The truth comes out, the sites are being sold for less the content is worth.
                                                                                                                                                                                          I made more than what the sites would have made at their peak over 4 years. So i'm pretty sure that's more than they would have made on autopilot over 4 or even over 10 years.

So i'm pretty sure that's more than they would have made on autopilot over 4 or even over 10 years.

It will need some awesome work by Manwin to return the profits needed.

That site alone was worth 25 millions in manwin's eyes. ..
                                                                                                                                                                                                      Being a programmer Shap was sharing the value of the site and traffic info and Fabian told him what it was Manwin valued it at. Me I'm just a delusional fool who looks at things thinking logically. What has logic got to do with it.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      isteve will be here any minute to explain why he is so well informed. And TisMe will tell me I'm a fool.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      Personally if Manwin paid what they did. Good luck to Shap and lets hope the decline doesn't roll onto the big guys.
