Memory Lane: What was your first sale? When? Sponsor? Traffic Type? Amount? Ratio?

[cue up the sentimental music]
My first sale was from my own paysite in 1997 made entirely of "public domain" images and fed entirely from toplist traffic.... It was for $9.95 through iBill. Don't remember the ratio.

After a few months I decided I'd better focus on my mainstream career and I walked away from several years of insane profit potential.



After that I came back as an affiliate and the first sale was Lightspeed University from a TGP listing on the Hun... about 1:300


What about you?

When I was 10 I found some Playboy magazines and I sold them to my friends in school. That was the first time I sold porn.

I think it was Maxcash for $35. As I recall, I was promoting Karas Adult, but the join was for Teen X off a console..
Traffic was from a link list, Tommy's or Greenguys most likely.
The same week had one or two at ARS, but I think technically the Maxcash one was first.
1999. No idea of ratio.. but those first sites are still live on the same domain and the same host. I dont change my shit once it's done if it's been submitted

Raw Like Sushi made me some nice money back in '99

I think I made a grand one month with a 20k TGP.

Then their rules got stricter about the text links, and then they were gone. I was so sad.

Nothing is quite as satisfying as making sales off of shit you built years and years ago.

Yeah true

Sucks about the new 2257 stuff though. I'm seriously considering pulling all my sexually explicit content rather than deal with it frankly. If I need to do that, I have a ton of emails to send out to link lists and tgp's..

January 2001. Ifriends and I was hooked. Still my main sponsor.

First sale of the week was $10! then. Now it's 4 times that.

Just got my first sale for a Topbucks site. Came from my third AVS site (the first one I used recips and submitted to linklists). I've been doing this maybe a month, but that site just went up on the 19th. My ratio was 1:10 at that time. Beginner's luck, but I'm an equal opportunity affiliate.
