        Possibly.

        There's also a gestalt from a complex system, the sum is greater than the whole of its parts.

        That's a huge network he's building.

            Power to the peabody. Now if he lumps all his threads into one regarding billing he could squeeze another 40% profit or so... unfortunately (for him) ... he won't. Ccbill 4life

                Heh hardly a genius. Just an insanely hard working maniac with a magic number in his mind he's trying to one day reach. :D Look, it's Saturday night at 1:10 am and I'm uploading videos to my new custom CMS while surfing GFY. Insanity! LOL

                  How many of them making real money? Thats 1 million dollar question.
                  Like squealer once said, he is genius for buying cheap old content and making great network. But I guarantee only 10% or less sites make real money. Its a trial and error thing and he is one of those people who gets it! More power to him!
                  I know one guy who makes lots of money in one niche where he has no competition. Old guy, into kink himself. I was shocked when he told me. Never ever in my life I would imagine there are people getting off on that.

                      don't know the dude all that well but based on objective evidence: smart as fuck

                      1) runs a thriving network of sites that survived a rebranding and thrived thereafter (ability to plan/execute and adapt to changing conditions)

                      2) never goes low in a disagreement, here of all places (for real though, demonstrates EQ)

                      3) works really fucking hard at a job he created and enjoys

                      ticks some major boxes for me

                      agreed but tbh I get it. for a porn site (or network) with an aff program ccbill takes a load off re: payments without having to arrange all that oneself.

                      but yeah, agree

                        Its a lot easier than you think. You can use existing free scripts and as long as you have PHP knowledge you can make it to where you upload videos or pix in one directory and update $count . One day I am going to start FREE Porn University for all Bernie supporters who graduated with Sociology and Jewelry design degrees. This will be my Philanthropy achievement speech when I run for congress.

                          Woj is the man doing the hard work. But yeah much is PHP. I'm doing everything except a search function. The idea of tagging thousands of videos right now makes me dizzy. LOL But it will auto-update, rotate content, stream videos, add new sites, basically make the user experience better for Members (especially on mobile) which should help with rebills. It's also great for upsells and displaying special offers, etc. Lot of work tho so doing it one site at a time. Should be done sometime in 2038.

                                  Yes he is not only smart about the way he's doing things, he's also super friendly and helpful. I wish there were more like that. I wish nothing but the best for him.

                                      I don't think reusing old DVD screen caps and adding HD tag is a good idea or "smart". But thats just me.
                                      Don't take me wrong, you do get paid here and there from your tube submission traffic but is it worth the effort? Just looking at "Join" and "See More" button design I can tell Its a one men shop. Half of those sites will get "inactivity" email from CCBill sooner or later. Ask me how I know that

                                              I know one guy who makes lots of money in one niche where he has no competition. Old guy, into kink himself. I was shocked when he told me. Never ever in my life I would imagine there are people getting off on that.
                                              If he's buying the content right and he's not laboring intensively over each individual site, would you not imagine each successful site probably far far more than paying for carrying the rest ... would you not imagine a very successful site (one) repaying what ever he spent on the whole mess? Maybe including all of the hours, even, hell if I know
                                              But it seems likely if you ask me

                                              I mean to say it just doesn't sound as awful as you made it sound ... if 10% of his sites are making money .... fuck . . sounds good to ME . . It's not as if he has a lot full of automobiles and only 10% of them ever sold

                                              God knows I'm no SEO expert but sometimes guys like this use sites which don't look like much for interesting help in the SERPS (at my age I am probably talking about some shit from the forties though, I don't know)

                                                  I am in a rush, just noticed the title and making a quick note.
                                                  If I need to answer very briefly, than Yes, he Is a genius.

                                                  We met and spent time together in Amsterdam 2015 @ the Webmaster Access and I strongly believe that he is a fucking smart man who has Huge knowledge about our industry and besides this he is a very very nice person. I told him this later too, and still think the same: he was the smartest and nicest guy I met this show.

                                                  I wish nothing but good to him, he is full of good ideas and does hard work for real, makes very nice money without doing harm to anyone else. I am happy I know him and think of him as closest friends in the industry however we really just met in person on this show [every day though] and do minor business together and had lots of discussion in email/ICQ. I think this even if nowadays we talk occasionally - but I believe this is the sign of really good friendships.

                                                      That's right, he works hard. And smart. He listens to new ideas, seeks input, offers help and, in general, an asset to this board. He earns his success because he works for it. But most important, although there is no money to be made in porn, he makes money. That's the holy grail correct?

Maybe including all of the hours, even, hell if I know
                                                        But it seems likely if you ask me

                                                        God knows I'm no SEO expert but sometimes guys like this use sites which don't look like much for interesting help in the SERPS (at my age I am probably talking about some shit from the forties though, I don't know)

                                                        Thanks Mr. Maxwell! You pretty much nailed it with your analysis. About half my paysites (really the ones I acquired about two years ago from Ruff Davidson) act as Bonus sites. They do not make sales and are there for added benefit. But half my sites DO make sales and they fall into 3 categories: daily sales, weekly sales and monthly sales. So, taken together, I am doing ok. And yes, the burnout bug has bit me too at times. I am planning on a Holiday soon as a matter of fact. Best of luck to you Sir!

                                                        You have to do both but you are correct. Once you have something to sell the idea is to get more people to your product so that is what I am focusing on later this year moving forward. The only thing my little Porn Kingdom needs is its own in-house traffic sources.

                                                        (Thanks for all the other kind words too everyone! Just woke up so it's coffee time. LOL)

About half my paysites (really the ones I acquired about two years ago from Ruff Davidson) act as Bonus sites. They do not make sales and are there for added benefit. But half my sites DO make sales and they fall into 3 categories: daily sales, weekly sales and monthly sales. So, taken together, I am doing ok. And yes, the burnout bug has bit me too at times. I am planning on a Holiday soon as a matter of fact. Best of luck to you Sir!

You'd be surprise how many people get off on weird ass shit. Lets say you have 2 terabytes content from Paul, Gregg and some other defunct content producer. Do you just throw it all out and call your paysite "general porn - come see girls naked"? Nope. You do little bit of research and sort out content for hairy cunts, crackheads .. girls with ingrown toenails. You name it - there's freak out there who gets off on it.

                                                                                            And we dont have to pay monthly fees for every new site or get raped on design charges from you.
