Michel's Tip of the day - GoFuckYourself.com

Okay, well here's my tip.. (another thing to
do when you're bored)

When you're webmastering a CJ, TGP, FREE or
whatever site, and you're making some nice
money (let's say $3k monthly), don't
immediately star your own paysite! I'm
getting lotsa questions about how-to-start
a paysite on ICQ lately.

Some webmasters want to make a paysite,
because they want to get 100% of the fee
(normally they're giving a sponsor like
50%).. But they don't realize the
expensive content, server costs, the
chargeback and rebill problem..

You really gotta do some research about
making a paysite first.. Believe me, i've
made the same problem.

First of all,the CC provider.. Don't take the
CC provider which is the easiest to signup
with (like ccbill)! I would recommend
wnu to you.

Then the design Make an original design,
PAY some designers for the work (don't start
designing yourself, unless you're a
professional designer...

Content, buy some good content! Don't take
PornHolio as content provider (Simply
too mcuh downtime, broken links etc)..
UPDATE your content to keep your members
happy! Treat your members like your child!
THEY are the ones taking care of your checks

Spend money on a very fast host with a lot
of storage..

Make sure you're not the only webmaster who's
going to advertise the site and make a good
webmaster referral program, (50/50+recurring
is the safest way to do this)..

Anyone has more suggestions?

I totally agree, I think a lot of people show stay out of the paysite side of the business till they know enough to be succesful

here is an intresting url for you to send to the people that ask about starting a paysite.
Should you start a paysite? An interesting little quiz for people thinking of trying this venture.

I think it would be good to try AVS thing first and if you're successful you can go for your paysite

Hmm quiz has some good question, but is
too short to really make a conclusion I
think..
