150 questions...

Between this and your other post about your ex #2.... and all the other times we've talked about him, I have to say again that it is hard to fathom just how much of a loser he was/is.

All you can do I suppose is just hope the present owner of such a great boat is getting some good use out of it and treating it well.

15. Talk about the early days at Ynot with Rick, lars, bangwang and the gang.

Oh my gosh. I feel very old now. Ynot was such a blur way back when?September of 1996 to be exact. Rick, Lars, bangwang, Mark, Danni, Janey..hmm.. I?m forgetting tons. It got way too political for me. The Hangout board was the first webmaster board I ever posted on. I?m sure there?s others here that can refresh my memory.

16. What adult company has PK made the most money from over the years?

Webpower is #1 without a doubt. Of the oldies, Danni?s Hard Drive and Maxiumcash follow behind. The mix is completely different these days.

17. Did you ever think you'd work in Adult and make the money you do?

Not in my wildest dreams. I assumed I?d live my life doing accounting for the private sector, find a nice modest house to settle down in, and put away bits of money for my old age. Spent many years with days of hot dogs and mac and cheese trying to get by until payday.

This life I stumbled into has allowed me to become a stronger, independent, secure woman.

18. Talk about the quality of traffic and surfer experience VS quality of traffic on circle jerks and other TGPs.

The name of the game for me is keeping the surfer coming back. They?ll only come back if they find things they want and if those things change regularly to make them want to check back. Some have the philosophy of ?get them in and out and off my site and somewhere else to buy something?. Time and time again, I?ve had long-term bookmarkers buy a membership somewhere only to do it again, because they liked what they got.
My TGP page is secondary to the main page of free sites. From my experience, the TGP page doesn?t perform worth diddly compared to the front page. Several times I?ve thought that maybe it was a waste of time, but I?d hate to just drop it and loose even one potential sale or bookmarker.
As to quality of traffic on circle jerks and other TGPs (my site isn?t primarily a TGP), I have no knowledge. If it works for them?good for em.

eeewww yuck.. divorice sucks.. sounds like he was a pile..

OK, I'm curious as to why you didn't name the Carver "Persian Kitty" ?

yup those were the days ! beating infoseek till all hours of the morning and the Cyberzine chat rooms.. PK was very nice and had a persian kitty co branded chat room on my site for a long time :) thanks PK.

And ya all thought I only did co brans on my live cam sites... Pk was my first ever attempt at a co brand..

This thread is gold............ I love the traffic I get from PK

ok I cant stand any more hahhaah making me feel old

Cause I thought it would be too obvious. CyberCat made perfect sense to me.

PK is one of the first link exchanges I did back in the day..... 97-98 ish...... always solid traffic from PK....

Would give PK a hard link exchange without thinking

2 years ago for my birthday my fiancee bought me 75 laps around the monroe speedway in a stock car. What a rush, certainly made me learn some respect for those fellas, that's a lot of power to control. If you're into stock cars, you should definitely check it out.

19. What has kept you in the biz soo long when soo many others have faded into oblivion?

Consistency and sticking to my guns.... and okay, I?ll admit it, I?m stubborn.

20. How many adult conventions/events do you attend a year? Plan on attending?

I?ve been at every one. Where have you been??!!

Nahh.. Actually I?ve never attended any. The discussions and pictures that I?ve heard and seen are full of naked women and drinking. Neither appeal to me.

"Nahh.. Actually I?ve never attended any. The discussions and pictures that I?ve heard and seen are full of naked women and drinking. Neither appeal to me.
"

Well then according to juicy you're a noob if you don't attend conventions?

Agreed totally.
No question about it.

Sleazy ya should have asked her how many alt nics she has;)

I have suspected a couple! But I will never say who they are if I am right on this hunch. So no one ask me about em if she says "yes" on this question.

None. I only post here under this name.

I don't think PK has time for alt nicks.... PK is PK and there are no other

OK cool;) This will help me sleep better!

Yer da best PK:)

Now I'm curious to know what nicks you thought might be me??

They would be insulting if I said who I thought they were I rather not.

However, Initially I thought the foundations of PK had Lew Payne involved somewhere and you were management of Persiankitty.
I am not sure I could be totally wrong. The Palo Alto masters like Ifriends network etc. The whole group was rather secretive in the early day.

Ermm along with the PayPal guys of course.

When I lost hosting (for free wasn't doing this for $$ at the time), Lew's site "Secrets of Speed Seduction" was linked on my list. When I took down my site I put a page in it's place that explained why. He contacted me about sponsorship of the site. In the first few months (December to late February), he provided hosting through ViaNet in return for a text placement below the logo at the top of the site which advertised "Secrets of Speed Seduction" as sponsor. When I finally decided to take ad placements, he became a % partner. He handles the server site of things, has created some scripts, etc. What you see on the site is all me... ad placements and changes, links and gallery reviews, etc.

I miss Lew:(

Not heard from em in a very long while.
THanks for clearing that up for my own little history book:)

21. Talk about your university experience and what degree do you have?

I went to Washington State University from 1979 until 1983. I have a Bachelors in Accounting with minors in computer science and economics. I worked my way through college...40 hours a week and a full class schedule.

22. How many houses do you own? pics.

Two outright and half of a motor coach.

The home I live in, most have seen the pics before..

http://207.114.239.80/pktemp/house_09092003l.jpg

The other home is on the Washington coast.. beachfront property that is used as a rental when I?m not in there. I use it a few times each year. It?s occupied about 85% of the time with weekend, weekday, weeklong time vacationers.

nice bus

PK why havent you made categorized pages and recips to grab a chunk of the SE traffic that alot of other link lists get?

Cause I'm clueless when it comes to stuff like that.

i was surprised a few years ago when you added the TGP to your site..
looking back, did it work out as you planned?
great interview, btw :thumbsup

Yes and No. The TGP is nothing to live off of definitely.

What are the essential differences between link lists and TGP's and why do you think that TGP's proliferate more than link lists? It seems that people start up TGP's every day but not link lists.

From what I've seen, a link list gives the surfer more opportunity to click on advertisements. In a free site you have the entrance page which contains ads, the main page which contains ads and links to two or three galleries, and finally the gallery pages which contain ads and sample images. Do you think that a traditional TGP surfer would find having to click thru multiple pages to get to the galleries upsetting?

I can remember sending you sites that where hosted on porncity free hosting back in the day and I also remember the gallery side opening.

This is pretty interesting for a noob.

Furthermore, being a noob, I am still really learning how lots of this works. Networks, those i know, but this is rich in history and am suckin it up. Thanks PK (if I may) this is good stuff. Oh and a big wink to you from the juicy thread.

when i first came across Persian Kitty's site (1996) it gave me idea to make band sites doing the same thing she did. A list of links to band sites. An index.

Next thing I know i was putting up click cash links and i have never looked back.

Thanks PK.

actually i think it was very early 97.

i had gotten a new computer (with internet) in December of 96, so could have been January which would make it 1997.

either way.

its been a long time :1orglaugh

Mmmmmmmmmmm, Very Intersting Dude

invest a few grand in consulting services
this tip is worth thousands... believe me

nice interview

PersianKitty :thumbsup

Good one, great read!

Great interview PK, definetely an awesome success story! :)

23. How many cars do you own? pics.

5, but I don?t drive them all.
I have a 2002 Ford Explorer Limited that I drive
I own a 2003 Dodge Neon (son?s fiancé), 2001 Dodge Dakota (younger son), 1997 Subaru Legacy LXI (older son), and a 1968 Ford Mustang California Special.

24. Ever seriously thought about selling Persian Kitty?

Once. I've had three buyout offers for my business. A couple of them in the eight-figure range. Problem is.. what else would I do if I didn't do this? Any buyout would mean I'd have to sign a non-compete which would mean I couldn't put up another adult site. And I also couldn't be PK anymore. My CPA nearly died when I told him I'd turned down offers. He mapped out how I could live very well on the interest alone.

25. Do you have any employees? What do they do?

Like many other adult webmasters, I support a family member. My brother does a bit of the back page reviews and rechecks from time to time, but it?s nothing regular. Design (the little there has been) is contracted out. Server stuff is handled by Lewis.

26. Why do you come to GFY?

Hmmmm. Why do I come to GFY. The news travels faster than on CNN. The characters are interesting. Once in a while there?s a tidbit of information to glean from others. I?ve run through most of the boards over the years. Ynot, Netpond, Porncity, Oprano.. I?ve been a regular at one time or another on each of them. It gives people a sense of community to in a world where we are so spread out.
Geee.. lens.. when you turn the search back on can you make it so I can search for ?PK? or ?Persia*??

what do your family (i.e children) think about you being an adult webmistress?

My boys don't seem to mind one way or the other at least they've never told me. Sometimes they've used it to their advantage. For some reasons teenagers think it's kewl...go figure. They definitely know that my work has allowed them to live a very comfortable life.

were you ever a reg at biancas smut shack?
