Theres amihototnot, ratemycameltoe, and a million others.
Do they make money or is it a waste of time and money to make them?

I have some niche traffic I can use to make a niche one, but I dont want to make it if it's only a resource hog and theres no money in it.

Well people at Hi-Rise Ent. try to profit from them. I used to have a voting system like that up on my personal site and someone uploaded a nonnude pic that he says he had copyright too. I took it down as soon as he told me but now he's taking me to court all the way in Louisiana to try and get some money for it it being there. Remind you it was a free site, no money made, and user submitted.

There actually fun sites but assmasters like them have to try and get that extra coin so they can afford there new doublewides. I would advise against it.

What an asshole. Hope the judge laughs it out of court and fines him for wasting the court's time.

thanks for the info.

the main "hotornot" site is estimated to have made 5-8 million dollars in the past 2 years

nocostporn · 12-06-2002, 09:27 PM

big traffic means theres always somebody wanting to advertise... Might not be big money but the little obvious work put into those sites I'm sure its worth a shot...

I have no idea if that figure is right, but they sell memberships on hotornot - memberships give you the ability to write people like on a dating service - and I have a feeling if they did make much money a good portion of it came from that.

Never direct your rage at coworkers-that's what your family is for.

I tried to post the pic but it is not showing up. They have some real good ones. Look under HUMOR. They are poster size.
