K.I.S.S

Keep It Simple Silly.

No matter what you're doing, keep it simple.

Don't over think or make things overly complicated.

Here is mine:

The interent is dead and there is little if any money to be made these days. Had it been 1997 you would be a millionaire.

Now pack up your laptop, take it back to Best Buy and on the way, drop your resume off at Walmart, Target and shiiit, while your at it returning your laptop, drop one off at Best Buy too.

My Best Tip:

Dedicate yourself to one project at one time.

Do not 'start' 10 projects at same time. Give all your time and effort to one project at one time. And do not start another (no matter how appealing and 'better' it is seems) unless you feel first one is in stage of initial success.

I like this point.

Think about it for a minute. You're copying those that make money, right? Those people that are industry leaders. Now, they made it because they came up with ideas that pushed the boundaries just enough, figured out what would work through trial and error. They took a risk, a calculated risk, and came up with an idea that suited the time, situation and target market. While you're busy copying them, they're busy pumping out the new idea that keeps up with progress.

Do your research, think, take a little risk every now and again and do something different.

Also, as for my tip, adult is a business like every other. You need a plan, you need to set goals, you need to be a master at learning and communication. You need to run your business, like a business!

Good Luck!

Don`t even think that you will make a shit load of cash at once , probably not even a single sale in the whole month. Keep your head up and work consistently. Perseverance is the key to success. And of course a little help.

There are more important things than money . . .

Get out the porn business before you kill any more of your time.

Go mainstream.

Sounds pretty fucking stupid, but don't drink coffee while working if you're serious about starting in adult...you'll eventually be cracked the fuck out on it and won't get shit done. Drink water! 9 years has taught me this.

Id seriously want to know how do you make money in mainstream - not the details, just the big picture:

Create decent sites (takes a lot of time)
Swap links
Wait for SE traffic

that it? my only mainstream site made $0.18 last MONTH lol

I can find 100 ways to make a few bucks in pron and 0 in mainstream
if you can spare 20 seconds and post the basics I'd be grateful

Product feeds, communities, there's all kinds of tools and tricks that work better for mainstream than porn.

PPC in mainstream is better because the conversions are WAAAY lower. 1:8 is the norm if you know how to write ads.

It's just easier. I'm not saying there's no money in porn, because there is, but if you are starting out you are better off spending the learning curve time learning how to work mainstream.

Porn is a business in decline. It's not growing. In a few year's times things are going to look a bit different.

In mainstream a good site can be sold for several years revenue. In porn, that same level of site will get you 2 months revenue.

Think about it.

I'll have to do some hardcore reading and seriously start thinking about spending at least 10% of my time on working on mainstream sites, there're like gazillion advantages in that - porn can get hit by some fucked-up law and basically I'll be left with no incmome....

One thing that makes the porn industry unique is the access noobs have to large players/deals:

GFY+ICQ= all the access you should ever need. Be smart about that. Don't waste people's time. Hit them up for 2 reasons only- business and business.

Oh yeah, and test, test, test. You won't know what works best off hand. And other people's traffic/sites, etc. will perform differently than yours. So trust data.
