Hang in there man - No sense giving up now.

What are you currently doing? Let us know and I'm sure there are people here that will make an attempt to help you. I sure will.

adultchica · 01-13-2006, 06:48 PM

Dude, spacedog, unless it's costing you a lot in hosting, there's no sense in giving up! Try to get a day job or something until things pick up with your sites, and then become full time later on.

I wish you some luck, but giving up is never the answer.

I thought maybe ccbill would be good way to go since the payout is combined, but I'm like 0:4000 or something all the time.

blogs is where most of my effort was put in, have some sites that look like tgp, but no submitted galleries, just my own & 99% fhg on them and the resources sites. Did some galleries back in nov & dec but the bandwith overage possibility is one I can't afford to risk right now. Some people on icq told me to start submitting galleries again on sponsor free hosts, so I am likely to do that again, but trying to get the account(s) & everything going is like waiting for a turtle to come to shore from deep sea.

Pick out some new sponsors here:

Start fresh, with only the best sponsors.

it's not the sponsors, it's low traffic. I can never get past 700 uniques a day & I end up with all the solo girl free loaders. most of my sites get less than 400, but 2 of the domains are in the 550 to 700 range

pornguy · 01-13-2006, 07:08 PM

OK here is a good idea. What are you doing with your 404?? If you dont have htaccess, get it, and send the traffic someplace. I send mine to pussycash, and convert it at about 1 in 4 to 6k. Sometimes much higher, sometimes MUCH lower.

to sponsor or on your sites?

Sly · 01-13-2006, 07:11 PM

I hope your blog is fake. If not, my first tip is lose the attitude.

My second tip is stop whatever it is that you're doing and submit free sites. Its the easiest free traffic to get and it will actually make you money. You can submit one free site a day, shouldn't take you anymore than an hour or two on average per site. After a couple weeks of submitting you should be hitting the "sale every other day" mark.

Free content is everywhere. Cheap hosting is everywhere. There are tons of link lists available to submit to.

You have 0 sales in 2 weeks. Are you even working? What are you doing with your day?

Tempest · 01-13-2006, 07:39 PM

Sly had some good advice.. Focus on getting steady revenue in first, use a bit of that to buy TGP partner acounts and expand into submitting TGP galleries... Try and streamline your gallery/free site building so it takes less and less time as you progress... in your "spare" time, then work on your own blogs/TGPs/LLs... You have to put at least 1 new thing on the net every single day

Get out of the niche everyone else is in.. i.e. teen/solo girls..

I'd like to offer more help, but I've found that people rearely listen to the advice that would realy make them money and so these days it's "do exactly what I tell you to do or do it yourself"...

Yeh, no shit.

I know a number of people in financial ruin. I have given several a few simple steps to get them back on their feet. Guess what? None of them have taken my advice.

I've decided that 90% of the population is either just plain stupid or they enjoy being broke.
