It's dying, there is no doubt about it! I have watched it happening!

Anybody want to sell their sites before it gets really bad, let me know ok?

You Smoooth GO getter Heheh

Trying to get in before mass pannic :1orglaugh


Less Sites = Better Quality Or More Unique Content

me too (drunk i mean)

I think tomarrow im gonna get Drunk IF the Snow Ever Stops

Porn will always be here and those that can sell it will prosper. I have about 4 thousand free/avs sites and tons of tgp galleries I have made through the years. I know people who have at least ten times more. Starting out today building galleries and or free sites and think you are going to get rich or even make a half ass living has got to be getting nearly impossible. Unless you have big dollars and a brand new concept porn is not the right business to be in.

To all you veterans are you doing any diversifying? I have had some promising non-adult things begin to take off. I did figure out the only way you will do even half ass in non-adult is to do
everything yourself. From warehousing to running the site. Are any of you spreading out?

Oh yea This is important I am Involved in a Non Adult Venture it is a Service Geared to the Business World in order to save Small Companys Money and Provide them with what they need

I use to Make 20k a year with Just galleries Now i make about 10k and avs is even less now too. You really have to be Dedicated to it to get anywhere make sure you post one gallery and day and always post it to the search engines. And do 1-2 avs sites a day and you will be good to go to make about 15k a year

Guys relax, understand that many people feel we are the brink of Apocalyptic war, think about it, when you put that in perspective of course your signups will hurt..

it's a left brain, right brain thing.

traditionally, the adult web business has been dominated by computer nerds and techno geeks---and the pure programmer type sites with cookie-cutter content are foundering, and will continue to founder.

now, the more sophisticated surfer will respond to quality and aesthetic, and a proper psychological sell.

very unique and beautiful high quality content will always sell well.

and, it will be artists that produce that content, not techno geeks.

the geeks will run the infrastructure that delivers the content.

the business is just evolving, traffic is generally increasing, some sites will convert and some won't.

but, new, unique original content does convert.

the adult web is content weak now, the novelty is off, and that is why many webmasters are suffering.

My sales are up this year. Of course, they were never high...

My signups have been hurting since before bush went into office :helpme


But war will bring down signups

Well stated Mike. Things are kicking ass for us at YNOT as well, regardless of the fact that dozens if not hundreds of resource sites (and sites that claim to be resource sites) have popped up since the days when YNOT was the only resource online for adult webmasters.

how is it going now for you if you don't mind sharing? looks like you're still here
5 years ago you said what half of GFY is saying today....

reading this thread i'd say nothing has changed over the last 5 years
