Your voice has always sounded familiar to me as well..... :1orglaugh

4 years ago I was robbed 3 times in 2 weeks, so I was stuck in a shitty apartment on a big campus with no food or anything at all, really.. So I went out on move out day and found 3 computers in an alley and rigged them together to barely work, running around 400MHz, 128Mb RAM, XP that was hacked so it only loaded IE from CTRL+ALT+DEL and restarted every 45 minutes without warning, using an intermittent internet connection at 0.7Kbps. Then I cashed a bunch of small PPS program checks at local smoke shops until I was able to get my own house in a nice part of town where I grew up. :)

Slow start, but I'm happy as hell now pulling my way out of poverty with internet marketing. :upsidedow

Great story! Good Luck!

Who knew you and her would make such an awesome team?

LA Traffic
 

I had this nasty commute each day from the OC to Lockheed in Burbank, so one day, I am sitting in LA traffic circa 1998 (thank god for howard stern!) and heard on the radio that a recent study found that one of the most searched items on the internet was NUDE CELEBRITIES. I thought wow, work at home and no commute!! so I launched a small Celebrity paysite through IBILL. It actually did fairly well considering I managed it on a part time basis, made about 32k a year off it until IBILL imploded.

Then one fateful day I happen to have a discussion with one of my members - Steve Jones. He mentioned he started this cheerleader site LS-University.com and was doing quite well with it. He was extremely helpful in getting me started and I eventually hooked up with the owner of THURSDAY NIGHT VIDEO (also a member), who had some incredible looking models and truly amazing content. I told him he would make a lot more money having a paysite rather than selling videos online, so THURSDAY NIGHT VIDEO became TNVGirls. The site wound up doing very well considering that I still managed it on a part time basis, and you all know this business definitely requires a full time commitment to have good success. I closed the site a few years back to focus more on my mainstream job. Then last year after numerous former members pleaded with me to put TNVGirls back online so I opened the doors again.

Only issue is I am an R&D guy, I can make a great product but am totally lacking in marketing skills. Yes, that is a hint, I am always looking for good marketing help :)

I got some AOL spam in 1996 telling me I could make millions; for just $25 I would be set up. At the time I was so broke that my girlfriend gave me the $25.

Started as a university student back in '03 - 04 running two livecam studios (I wish I would start building quality freesites back then).

Came up with a proposal for my most ambitious gig in '05 when I became the go to guy plus a site revamp + TV licensing initiator for Big Sister Media (televized sexhouse), traveled across half the world promoting it.

Tried to build a substantial traffic network from '10 to '11 (during the time my non compete applied) - put together a strategy after reading most of the Google patents, but Panda pretty much killed it, causing a downturn to about 5 pct. of its (till then) rising traffic.

Worked with GSS Interactive after as a marketing manager for about a year (great times). Did and still do some per project PR work.

All and all - I guess I may have been involved in just about any part of the business already - looking forward to the next challenge.

i just like to turn a profit whenever i have to pay for pussy :upsidedow

Hmm... you wnat to know story,but how is your story ?

I was the sales guy for a web design company. Looking for work some guy wanted to build a program with his content. I did some research and built it. Became the webmaster and the affiliate manager.

Year or so later found a program that needed an affiliate manager. 2009 moved here to LA and still goin at it :)

Man I started back in 1997 surfing porn sites taught myself HTML on my lunch break learn photoshop. From there I started taking pictures of local girls for free and put together a12 pay sites. I like to say that I started giving away multiple pay site memberships when you purchased a membership to one site because no one was doing it at the time. My man issue was traffic so I discovered this little thing called tgps and affiliate site marketing. The rest was history later in my career I became a big content photographer in the ebony niche and sold content to one of the big and still standing click me media. Fucking with a ex girl friend who was jealous of how much money I was making shooting content and with pay sites while she had to get up in the morning and go to work. I decided to cut one back Dumbest mistake ever because I cut back the affiliate marketing which was recurring sales and continued to just shoot content. When the industry changed I stopped porn but still had a few pay sites, even though I'm still out of porn I have one pay site that's in the tranny niche that I haven't updated in 5 years and I still get paid from it once a month. I went on to real estate and now is a big time buy and hold and flip investor. I logon to guy every now and then and see that some of my peers who were also big in the ebony niche has gone. I decided to go to the internet this year because that was one of the biggest things I missed about porn them weekends in Vegas and Florida. So if any of my old peers are reading this and want to reconnect or have some drinks for old times sake i will be at the hard rock hotel. Also I still have lots of content that is for sale if anyone is interested ebony content. I used what I learned in porn marketing as an advantage in real estate marketing and I always say that porn we masters are the best internet marketing. I remember when customers use to hate pop-ups now ever industry is using some sort of old pop up technic. See you in Vegas

Started 1997, back in the days i spammed google and icq, made a couple millions. Story told. :winkwink:
