All you need is a newbie to get the idea that spamming the whole universe is a great idea to compensate for their lack of experience to give everyone a black eye. Now no one can make any kind of business proposal without hearing SPAM a hundred times.

All you need is a newbie to get the idea that throwing up 100 popus on a web page is a good idea. Pop-up blockers didn't even exist 4 years ago.

All you need is a newbie to get the idea that being a script kiddie can get them some easy bucks from unsuspecting visitors. Now everyone has some kind of virus scanner, port blocker, or personal firewall.

All you need is a newbie to get the idea that bait-and-switch is a good idea for getting some easy money. Now no one trusts any website, except for the major ones. There was a time when a startup website got the benefit of the doubt, now you are guilty until you can prove otherwise.

Professionals do not operate this way. They know this type of behavior is self-defeating and unproductive.

Understand, the web is not an island or a vacuum. It is an interconnected worldwide network of computers. You can spread bad just as easily as good almost instantaneously, with or without experience.

My advice, it makes no sense to encourage the inexperienced and naive to offer a porn website with promises of easy money. All it does is make it harder on everyone.
'Newbies' can bring tons of fresh ideas to a stagnant business. often times it takes someone from the outside looking in with a brand new outlook to change things for the better. And just because someone is a newbie doesn't make them a spamming asshole, or an idiot, like you seem so eager to make it seem. Plenty of non-newbie webmasters still use these tactics, with greater prevelance and maliciousness.

By the way, your last paragraph is especially funny. WHO exactly is promising newbies easy money? Im still relatively new, and I came into the business with no delusions, that it would be a tough career just like anything else. I think the people promising easy money are, and have been, long gone.

This is a quick note about the mortgage re-fi bubble...

Back in the early 90s, it seemed like everyone was starting a mortgage re-fi company because rates started dropping. And they kept droppping. So people kept opening new companies because there was so much room to drop rates, which means a lot of potential business. You kept hearing things like limitless potential, low barriers to entry, and everyone is welcome (to start a business).

However, once the Fed stopped lowering rates, and everyone had refinanced their mortgages, business started drying up and a lot of those refinancing companies went right out of business.

Only the businesses that started in the beginning that built up loyal customers and cash reserves were able to last. Even then, a lot of older companies went bankrupt because they got complacent or lost their focus.

It is never good to get in on a bubble when everyone is encouraging you to do so. If everyone is already in the biz (that wants to be), how can you make any money?

My advice: If you are new to the biz, get a partner or a mentor that knows what they are doing.

This is hilarious.
WHO do you think it was that started spamming porn?
WHO do you think it was that started popups?
WHO do you think it was that used auto-bookmarkers and auto-downloaders?
WHO do you think it was that brought the Visa crackdown with their bullshit bait-and-switch tactics of pre-checked cross-sales, fake trials, triple billing on signup etc?

It's the "professionals" whose asses you're trying to lick right now and who have been scrambling for the past 6 months to get their shit straight before they go out of business.

It ain't the newbies that have been - and still are - using the tactics described above to pay out $40+ per signup on a $2 join... it's the people you're praising as "professionals".

How the fuck are you making too much money? For one, you're nothing but a clone of me...The only reason I ever heard of you was when I did a google search on MY domain and I saw a comment you made about me on your site...For two, you get less than 50 hits a day to your site...and three, how in the fuck are you making money WHEN YOUR CCBILL ACCOUNT HAS BEEN DEACTIVATED FOR AT LEAST THREE WEEKS? You just had to get a new host three weeks ago because you tried to go the el cheapo route in hosting and got with a host that didn't allow adult content...

See, you might have not noticed but after you click through after your join page, it clarly says that your account has been deactivated....Don't believe me? Click the credit card button on your join page idiot... http://www.foulfowl.com/ccbill/ .....And back when you actually had an active ccbill account, you couldn't even afford to pay the 750 visa fee so all you were taking was mastercard and discover...We all know that visa is at least 80% of credit card sales....So how is that you're making so much money on a 50 hits a day site with a deactivated ccbill account?

I wondered how long you were going to keep asking people to join up on your site without realizing that you can't even accept signups...You know how? It's because you didn't expect to get any sales in the first place so you would never bother to check to see what was up with your signups....

See, with me, I would know something was up with my shit within 24 hours because I expect to make SALES every day...If something went wrong, I'd know it immediately...

Get off my dick newb....You're not the first nor the last dumb ass nigga who thinks that all it takes is to pick a crackhead up off of the streets and point a camera at her...It's way more than that...

You're nothing but a copying hoecake who will never gain any respect nor any money in this biz....You don't even have a fucking clue about the internet porn biz and you don't even realize it.

You call yourself "Johnny Dough" yet you have none....hmmmmm

who's the dumb nigga when you just said that you make TOO MUCH money from your site? Then once it's pointed out that you don't even have a biller, you cover it up by saying that you didn't even realize you're missing dough from the site..

You didn't miss the weekly checks you're supposed to get from ccbill? I would...Who's the dumb nigga now
