thinking of throwing in the towel.
 
I'm tired, I'm beat. I'm defeated & I am starting to feel like it is all fucking pointless.

Just take a weeks break - reload your batteries.

Donny 01-13-2006 06:42 PM

Damn, man. The second try hasn't lasted very long. I'll take care of that domain name for you again if you do through it in.

Look for better traffic sources and exploit them to the fullest.

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.

just seems it was easier last time around. fucking ratios suck. traffic's so difficult to get with out the $$$ to invest. I spent money to get shit going & still havent gotten a single check in the last 5 months. I've made sales & conversions, but not one single sponsor over the minimum payout. 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.

you only do galleries?

Doctor Dre 01-13-2006 06:54 PM

ROFL ... read your blog man cmon...

Sales aren't that hard to get, you just gotta think outside the box. If you do the exact same thing everybody else is doing, off course you're not gonna make $

Donny 01-13-2006 06:55 PM

Just sent you an ICQ

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.

DaddyHalbucks 01-13-2006 07:00 PM

Pick out some new sponsors here:

http://platinumsponsors.com
http://platinumsponsors.com
http://platinumsponsors.com

Start fresh, with only the best sponsors.

MrKnowItAll 01-13-2006 07:02 PM

I was in same situation, things been picking up now in last 3 months and I just got a day job too, to help me invest and pay bills cause I was tired of asking cash form my dad =/

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

do you even own porn sites?

All I see you do is post.

ohhh wait I saw you do printings too...

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.

KingK7 01-13-2006 07:08 PM

You need to promote some new stuff...
I have a few ideas for you, hit me up on ICQ if you still have my #

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?

devilspost 01-13-2006 07:18 PM

I got hosting, I got content, I have domains, I've been updating my porn blogs, been chasing & asking for link trades, been installing scripts trying to get shit to work, been submitting to link lists, directories, adult search. blog directories, link dumps, etc...

devilspost 01-13-2006 07:19 PM

oh yeah, register only .com domains unless they are dmoz or yahoo linked.

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"...

Dont give up space..lots of great advice in this thread. Dont let yourslef get too far in debt, if you have to get a day job..so be it for a while till things pick up.

good luck

Flu 01-13-2006 07:48 PM

If this guy's quitting and you guys still feel like giving out free advice either spam me here with some ICQ numbers or hit me up at: 325822271, im down to listen to some good advice from the experienced vets and pros. thanks!

that's exactly what I intend to do. I was just chatting with KingK7 & he had some great tips & pretty much on the lines you suggest. I am off to explore another niche & see what happens.

thanks everyone for boosting moral. :)

adultchica 01-13-2006 07:56 PM

Holy shit I just read your blog. That is some crazy shit. I HOPE THINGS GET BETTER FOR YOU. damn :(

Sponsors don't like to deal with folks from coutries like the Ukraine and such, mail is also troublsome, your checks may get stolen or lost.

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.
