Porn Is NOT Profitable!!!!!

Bottom line for all the new people out there, porn= no money.

I have been promoting sites for years I made 1 sell which was .70 cents commission to date. I thought I would give it a second chance and tried multiple sources of traffic. I bought ads on very high traffic sites that where relevant to the sites I was promoting, did Google ad words, promoted on TGPS sent 10,000's of clicks to 5 different programs and I got a whopping 0 signups!!!!!

I spent 1000's on advertising, I used every source of advertising available to send potential customers to these affiliate programs.

If anyone knows the secret please send me a message cause I have no fucking clue why I can't make more than $1 at this fucking business...

Well, for one, this page says May 2008, and this one says June 2006, but the domain wasn't even purchased until May 2007.

Sounds like marketing in generel isn't your strong side....

Start out withk meta adult like Dating. Cams is too hard to sell if you don't get it, but dating you can monitor how well it's going from the number of free and some of them will always convert.

loadedcash.com

Start some blogs, hire some blogposters and hire a guy to make you get a right start.

When you have 100 blogs running with 1000 SE hits a day you will start seeing some money.

I'm talking about porn traffic, I just think most sponsors get signups but they don't credit us for the sales.

The SEO program in my signature is specific for non adult traffic.

So, you're claiming nonspecific programs are shaving you, and that your signature has nothing to do with the industry of which you are participating.

Maybe you're just stupid.

PR0, no traffic rank and only 1 year old domain.

If you had a clue about anything you would also be able to sell adult membersships or at least dating.

even og traffic from images.google.com without braking the frames a convert 1:800

I am positve that you don't have any seo or marketing skills at all.

You also mention adwords. Although I never had a real good long term adwords campaign I had several and if I don't break even I am very close to it. If you can't make a single signup from google adwords traffic you must be doing something very seriously wrong.

Dave I have to agree there is no money in porn.... in all honesty it is very very very hard to make a buck in this biz

I am the kind of person who hates to see people lose a lot of money and would like to help you recoup some of the money you have lost by buying your sites from you. I feel this will be my good deed that will redeem me for all te bad I have done

I know I will not make any money with your assets but at least my small donation will help to pay a bill or two hit me up if you are interested and sorry you had to learn the hard way

That's how it works.

If you can't find gold yourself, sell shovels to the miners.

Yes, that I understand, but they are shovels, physically verifiable instruments that deliver a quantifiable, predictable, visible utility.

That would be an ISP. If you can't make webmoney yourself, sell rackspace.

But SEOfails like this dude ? I can't find gold so I'll sell you a metempsychotical fail proof method of finding gold.

He's not selling shovels, he's selling almanacs.

I get affiliate code urls buy adwords contextual ads, by choker traffic for movie niche for example teen site would get movie niche teen traffic, placed affiliate banners on sites that get well over 100,000 unique visitors a day niche related, bought ads from juicy ads, avn and a few other ad buying sites. Did all my research to make sure sites had good alexa ranking, US traffic etc.

Submitted gallerys using popular TGP submitting programs paid companys to submit I did also manually, Had a alt porn site generated over 100,000 pageviews a month placed relevant alt porn banners on site. This is a brief summery. Did I do something wrong?

thats what happens when you buy shitty skimmed traffic.

try using your seo skills to generate targeted traffic then you'll start seeing some sales.

unfortunately there is no guaranteed formula for making money in this field.

dont get fooled by Alexa rankings, a lot of those sites may have big traffic numbers but they also have a large portion of freeloaders who wont buy. Also are you sending directly to the sponors tour or sending them through your own landing pages? I have found using landing pages not only filter the traffic better but get better results in sales.

It also depends on what sponsor you are promoting, what price points they are offering etc etc...if it was as easy as just sending as many people as possible to your site and sales will roll in everyone would be rich...a lot depends on the niche, your sales text, if it a oversaturated sponsor, over saturated niche etc etc...

but again if you have already spent thousands with no results this biz may not be for you and you may be heading towards bankruptcy if you continue....dont get caught up in the hype some sponsors try to put out there with their pics of fancy cars and stacks of cash...its not that easy unless you really know what you are doing.

You can make money in porn I have no real seo skills and have only been in adult for just over a year and I do make money from it...not huge amounts but I do make money from it.
Learn how to monetize your sites and read . I have belive it or not learned alot from GFY and other adult forums, and if you are serious about making money in adult then dont give up and if one thing dosent work then try something different. I have only ever once purchased traffic and its not the amount of traffic you get its the quality of traffic you get.

IF you do have large amounts of traffic to your site why not sell some banner space or text links and make some of your money back. At least you will be making something back on it, You could also try ppc affliates on your site

My best ppc is Click Thru Cash in my sig and they allways pay out(Just read their rules before you sign up) Loaded Cash also do ppc as well as pps and revshare and have always paid me. There are others which I am trying but I have yet to reach thier payout amounts so could not say how good or bad they are plus I do not really push them that much

One place to find others is here http://www.whopaidme.com/

Looks like you sent all your purchased traffic straight to the sponsors without any hand built landing pages etc.

You should have invested it in your own real estate !

If you seriously used adwords and made no money... then my opinion is that you are not very good at internets ......

OK ... in all seriousness, do you even know what a campaign optimization, grouping, quality score and keyword replacement are? .. if not then this might be one of the reasons you failed with this system. If you do, then how many keywords did you start with? 100?

I promoted a teen goth site lizvicious, used 100% targeted keywords like goth sex, goth porn, goth fuck, alt etc. I started out with 70 keywords. I got about 500 plus clicks a day on ave.

Something else you could also try is talk to your affliates most of them will help you out and also give you advice as to where you are going wrong. They want to make money from you as well so it is a good idea to listen to what they suggest. It dosent mean you have to do every thing they tell you but it all helps in the end..

I called a couple never got a call back. Thought my code was wrong but didn't make sense tracked clinks and not signups.
