I need advice from a pro. I want to spend some money and dont know where to spend it
 
I got a little over $12k to my name and i want to invest some of it to get me going farther.
Should I spend money on just buying top spots on tgps and putting great galleries up there? should I spend money on a paysite?

whats going to bring me the best return?
what would someone experienced do with it?

it took me sooo long to save this, I dont want to fuck it up.

this is money i was going to use for a down payment on my first house (in a few years) so I want to invest it and have it bring me more so I can get a house faster.

Moment of being serious.
If you can not chance loosing it, keep it the fuck out of adult. Put it away, invest it into some interest bearing account or something and try to make some money in adult without touching it.

Serious over.
Give it to me.

Libertine 08-15-2004 07:53 PM

Don't spend money unless you have a really good idea for it, or have something that has proven to work already.
Don't gamble it away on something you haven't tried before unless you have a really innovative idea (and there is nobody who has tried it before).

There are no "sure things". If there were, everyone would be rich.

The only way to really make money is by taking risks with the money you have. Risks, however, mean you could lose money.

yeah. im kind of leaning towards the paysite route since thats where lens, quiet, fantasyman, and a lot of the big money people seem to have made their money.
I dont know of anyone who made a fortune just from being an affiliate only.
Someone out there knows how to take $12k and turn it into $100k, i wish I knew.

I dont think I'd want to run a paysite these days, not sure what doesnt already exist out there in terms of members areas.
A paysite might be a great way to lose 12k a month :)

I play with PPC since I can "let it ride" a bit if it turns sour. Eventually I'll hit on something sweet that does more than break even. So I think anyway, lol.

graphicsbytia 08-15-2004 08:24 PM

clickhappy, do you know anything about adult business?

we're selling an affiliate program including the affiliate site, 10 paysites, all the content in the member's area, all the domains, and all the psd files for the designs.

My partner has health problems and it's too much for him to continue running this site.

If you have experience running paysites and are interested, hit me up and we can talk. My icq is 13599645

DaLord 08-15-2004 08:25 PM

If you have to ask you should hold on to them a bit longer.
Be very very very careful about making investments in anything around here.

bigdog 08-15-2004 08:41 PM

if thats the only money you have save it, you could easily lose money on ppc and gallery spots

{fusion} 08-15-2004 08:59 PM

Buy a mainstream business that makes 1000.00 a month.

Once you made 12k buy another one.

think 10 years from now, theres no quick money, most people who show you stats in porn dont say how much it cost them in advertising, and also they also might have about 6 years of feeders supplying the traffic.

if you hard those earned $12k, don't spend it in adult.. i mean, i'm not that much into adult, but been following what people say :)

i've got a mainstream business, running for 5 weeks now and in first month it made profits of $3k (after expenses). and it's not some huge biz or big investment biz, either... with a bit better marketing it could definitely generate over $6k/mo (profits).

if you're interested in discussing projects like those icq me 31696312 or send mail to luka [at] gablu [dot] biz

The serious part I agree with 100%

The other part no way, send it to me! :Graucho

Doctor Dre 08-16-2004 08:54 AM

Slowly work things out buying gallery spots ... like 1k at a time . If after 2-3k you cannot make any good money back then stop investing in it and move to something else . ad-words are always good too

Diligent 08-16-2004 09:09 AM

The "surest" way to not lose that money would be to invest it on what pays for
your EFFORT: marketing.

Invest as little as you can on WHAT to market, then go and invest on the marketing.

Like Doctor Dre said:
Gallery spots & SE's to begin with..

IF you're able to put some of the dough on SOMETHING of your own to market,
do so and then invest cleverly on marketing.
If you know a LOT of webmasters who are willing to help you out, throw up a
micro-niche paysite under CCBill and let your pals promote it heavily.

Cheers! :glugglug

Groove 08-16-2004 09:12 AM

Unless you're experienced in adult, do NOT invest $12k up-front in a single project. YOU WILL LOOSE IT ALL! Instead, pick an area (freesites, TGP, PPC, SEO, etc), invest a little money, put in the all-important sweat equity, make your mistakes, build some traffic and revenue. Then and only then, think about throwing some decent cash at a more ambitious project.

HowlingWulf 08-16-2004 09:13 AM

Don't take any advice from someone who isn't more successful than you. So why ask on GFY of all places? Lens isn't going to reach out and give you a handjob. Find someone you know personally that does well investing.

buy 12000 items from our dollar menu, eat them all, get big fat and greasy and then you will be a qualified webmaster able to surf GFY for days at a time without need for food, living off your fat, building TGP's. then when you run out of fat stores, get a job with us and build em back up. :Graucho

the_wizz 08-16-2004 11:51 AM

You should use it to buy mad traffic to send to my sites.....


Actually, I'd use to to get a small pay site started....

graphicsbytia 08-16-2004 11:57 AM

I know I told you about an affiliate program we have for sale, but I agree with a lot of the other replies here.

If you don't have experience with adult, you're just asking for trouble spending money on something you know next to nothing about, and could end up losing it all.

Take our well meaning advice and rethink what you're doing clickhappy

That 12k was hard work? Then I'm sure you won't mind doing some more hard work. I have a suggestion for you. Read as much as you can. Webmaster boards, adult and mainstream, business magazines, newspapers, books, everything you can get your hands on. Eventually ideas will start to come to you. The best thing you can do, for now, is invest your time. That investment will pay off, and then you'll understand where to put your money. You still might loose it, but at least you'll understand why. Keep working hard, you have got the right attitude :thumbsup

polish_aristocrat 08-16-2004 01:15 PM

You can spend $10k to get established by buying the nickname Dark Jedi

http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showth...hreadid=341327

and give the remaining $2k to me for the idea :thumbsup
