Settle this argument for me!!
 
My wife is getting bullshit at me for making porn websites! I told her I was in it for the money! She says I wont make any $$$..
I explained to her about sponsors & such..She dont think I could make $$$ with xxx sites!
Please post an answer to how much $$$ you make per month as a xxx webmaster!!

I also told her that it would be a fulltime job, that I'd have to work 8 hours a day to maintain sites & traffic etc..she bitches at me for spending so much time on computer...Tell me, was I right..or should I only spend 1 day a week working on my sites, etc..
Thanks..

I'm fuckin' broke man. I actually have less money now than before I started.

The Truth 11-26-2001 04:05 PM

I assume you are relatively new at this if you are asking this question so....

Assume you work 12 hours a day for the next 6 months. By the sixth month you should be making 500 to 1,000 bucks a month.

Now assume that the following six months you work 12 hours a day and at the end of that period you should be making 1 or 2k a month.

Working one day a week will net you 5 or 10 bucks a month.

These numbers are of course pulled from thin air and mean nothing but my point is that this business takes a LONG time to figure out and a LOT of work EVERY day. There is no quick or easy ride anymore. Get out while you still can !!!!

funkmaster 11-26-2001 04:13 PM

... to the wife of spacedog.

there is no money to be made in porn, your husband is a perverted pig, he loves to purve at porn pics all day long, donīt believe that he actually wants to make money of it ... nobody does ... they are all just purving !!!

Amputate Your Head 11-26-2001 04:14 PM

Rule #1:
Never ever tell passers-by that there's even a dime to be made in this biz. Because you might as well just empty your wallet out in the toilet right now and get it over with. If they're serious about it, they will find out in due time whether or not there's money to be made.

Rule #2:
Disregard rule number one if you're able to spam a resource site for new webmasters and make some coin off it. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/biggrin.gif

Rule #3:
Never ever listen to Amp.

spacedog 11-26-2001 04:23 PM

Geez Guys..
You all make it seem so promising!!
Actually, Yeah I'm new to this board, but as far as being a newbie webmaster, on the contrary, I've been a webmaster for over 2 years now!....I just want to go full time 40 hours a week and work at home to make my dough rather than go the regular job routine..I just need to convince my wife that in the end it'll pay off!!!
And yes I'm damn serious..It appears that few of the above replys arent so serious themselves!!! If all these webmasters arent making $$$ then why does every one do it!!

Amputate Your Head 11-26-2001 04:25 PM

I'm hoping one day to make enough money to replace the 12-volt battery I used to keep clamped to my nipples. I sure miss that fiery pain, and getting gallery after gallery rejected by Mr. TheHun is as close to that kind of pain as I can get nowadays.

spacedog 11-26-2001 04:27 PM

Oh, & yes I am making $$$ so I know it works, I just wanna do it full time to INCREASE my check amount!!
Im making around $50 to $150 a month right now with only 8 hours a week work, so I figure if i do 8 hours a day, I should make more $$$..
And as far as asking question, I dont need to prove anything to myself..I'm committed already..I just needed help convincing the wife so she'll stop bitching!

Za Ha 11-26-2001 04:29 PM

Your wife is right
you will not make any cash from porn

Amputate Your Head 11-26-2001 04:30 PM

Just smack her upside the head a few times. Then tell her when she gets back fro the liquor store with your order, to get naked cuz you're gonna shoot some new content.

spacedog 11-26-2001 04:32 PM

Then why are there so many pornsites out there!! Geez,, why do I even bother asking!!

Exxxotica 11-26-2001 04:35 PM

There is money to be made...you just have to work at it. It's not a get rich quick sort of market anymore. (not sure if it ever was)

Ive only been doing it a little over 2 years. During that time, Ive see more people try and quit than actually make it.

If ya work hard and network well, you can catch on quite easily.

I do it fulltime, but it took a while for me to figure out what works for me. There are people that can make money almost right away doing it and people that will never make money at it no matter how long and hard they try.

You need to be able to get traffic to your site(s) and you have to make more off of that than you do on content and bandwidth.

If you can't do that now part time - there is no reason to believe you will be able to full-time. I know some adult webmasters who make some serious cash. I think - on average, most people lose money.

Most important of all, if you are looking for any real advice - disregard everything you read on this board.

I see things on TV with the Internet Toolkit and what not - what a joke. Many people think if you put up a few sites that you will make money. I tried to talk this one woman out of spending money on a lease at an "internet mall".

My advice - don't quit your dayjob until you can see a profit that you can scale up. If you can make a PROFIT doing TGPs (I don't, but some do) one day a week - figure out what it would cost you for bandwidth and content to do it 7 days a week. You should be able to figure out if you would make a profit, even if you are not now.

If you don't know what you are going to do that day to make money, don't quit your job. I have a plan, and so do most people that make a profit.

To answer your question as to why people do it if they aren't making money:

1) Some people are under 18 and have no need for income - this is a hobby/business for them. You will find many children on this board.

2) Some hate their job and want to give it a try.

3) Some think it will be easy money.

4) Some do actually make money doing it.

To me it is the perfect job. I love it. I don't do the normal TGP/FreeSite stuff to make money, but have used those techniques. I can work my ass off at three in the morning if I want - or do nothing the next day if I have somewhere to go.

I have no employees - and no real boss. I probably "work" more than 40 hours a week, but it doesn't seem like work. I know of no other job in the world where I can make $35-40 per sale of a $2.95-$4.95 trial. As far as expenses go - they are very low for a small business. If I have one bad month - I still will be ok.

Good luck.

don't let others influence you on your business decisions at all when it comes to internet. Why? Because most probably you'll be more familiar on the subject than them. But again if you want to be serious on ANY business you're gonna work alone you must not set 8hours/day schedule, but tasks that must be completed. Work smart and hard and you'll do better than many people can imagine.

Amputate Your Head 11-26-2001 04:53 PM

No doubt.... if you think 8 hours a day is gonna do it.... forget it. I push 18 - 20 hours here and if I didn't pass out with my face on the fucking keyboard every night for a few hours, I'd probably get more done.

If you're serious about full-time.... prepare to work the most unholy hours you've ever worked in your life.

spacedog 11-26-2001 05:54 PM

Unholy hours is right..that's for sure..
With my wife & daughters around I never get anything done..I gotta wait til LATE night and early am to get anything done..

spacedog 11-26-2001 05:58 PM

Almost forgot..
Those that ARE making $$$
Roghly how much, with how many hours of effort!

playa 11-26-2001 06:12 PM

spacedog man,, seriously brugh working 8 hours a week and only making 150 a month isn't gonna cut it,,, if you been doing this for 2 years then you still ain't mastered webmastering 101,,,


seems like you got to many responsibilties,,,
always remember your family first and going full time is a VERY BIG STEP,,

if you do choose you need to at least save 6 months of income just in case something goes wrong and you have enough liquid money,,


just keep it as a hobby man,, don't plan on making 20k a month anytime soon

On The contrary..It's only the adult sites netting 150 month..
I have pretty much mastered webmastering 101 as far as mainstream goes..I got some mainstream sites that get pretty good traffic, I've won awards, & I am a member of alot of organizations & groups..Like, The international association of webmasters & designers!
As far as design & getting traffic goes..I dont have any problem with that..
And as far as making $$ goes, I just need to convince my wife that If I increase the amount of time I do it, I'll make alot more!!!

I even get some people around town to pay me to design their sites..

Dude, i got a wife just like yours, divorce her. I'm not joking, throw the bitch out because it will not matter how much money you make. Trust me, no amount of money ever made my wife happy, so she bitched all the time. Finally i just said fuck it and while driving to the store one day, she had an "accident".


SleazyDream 11-26-2001 08:21 PM

Every time I make a dollar I get excited, then I see that the bandwidth bill was $2 and I cry.

Nah, for some reason she was driving around with several containers of gasoline in the trunk at the time the brakes failed, the steering wheel fell off and some silly kid i guess threw a molotov cocktail through the window. Strange how those things happen. Oh well, i gotta move on.

Same thing happened to my wife, only somehow the driver seat got covered in crazy glue, what a coincidence!

Matt 11-27-2001 12:53 AM

Spacedog, If I told you that I certainly wouldn't be making it anymore, especially on this board. I bet there are more lurkers than there are registered users...

421Fill 11-27-2001 12:56 AM

dude, I still work my dayjob and I put in 8-10 hours a night on my sites and galleries. I'm making about $500-$1500 per month and the huge variances wreak havoc on my manic-depressive personality. I'm hoping to go fulltime within 6 months, by the summer. I'm lucky though, my g/f's very understanding and has convinced me not to quit a couple of times.

spacedog 11-28-2001 01:13 PM

I showed her my stats from ARS & a couple other sponsors & she still wont quit her bitchin!!
Now she says 'Yeah, so when the fuck is the money gonna get here'..I cant win...
She expects a damn miracle with little or no effort..she seems to think I can just put up one gallery & that'll be enough..
Next time I fuck her, I'll videotape it with one of them small wireless cams & I'll build an avs or paysite with the videos of her sucking my cock & getting fucked!!
'
Maybe then she'll shut the fuck up!!

eRock 11-28-2001 01:54 PM

I have a day job, work a few hours a night & on weekends. I do so-so, but not enough to quit my day job just yet. It takes a while to build up...
