SCUSE ME for asking!!

Is that enough for an AVS site?

try 50 gigs for starters

Amputate Your Head 12-17-2001 01:35 AM

Dude.... we run NO LESS than 2 and a half gigs for a paysite.... and that is WAAAAAY short.... should be a minimum of ten gigs. G-I-G-S!

Amputate Your Head 12-17-2001 01:36 AM

SNOW said it best.... gather yourself about 30 or 40 gigs worth.... then think about it.

I said to START a paysite...obviously I'd have to get more AFTER I get going..How would I keep members without updates..


50 gigs..FUCK that's alot of smut..
Shit..If I had a website boasting 50 GIGS of images I'd make a fucking killing.. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/biggrin.gif

FreeNetPass Steve 12-17-2001 01:40 AM

I think it's enough. For an FNP Premium you need only 300 images. Imagine... if you were to use 500 images with your 10K that's a total of 20 Premium sites. 33 if you use 300 images. Now if you build a PaySite it could be enough content. You can always try it and see!

Keep dreamin' spacey.... who do you think you're competing with out there? "Joe Schmuck" with ten pics? This ain't the TGP world kid. You better have a fucking WAREHOUSE of porn if you think you are gonna get members that could just as easily sign up with people like AP, or Cybererotica, or Kara's, or any other major pay behemoth of porn. 500 megs? I wouldn't join that if they sent ME $5 bucks.

However.... if you want a damn fine paysite design for your new venture.... check the sig.... http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/biggrin.gif

Guys, Amp, Snow ask him about hosting first.
Remember this is spacedog.

Just last week he was looking for script coders for a prdoduct that would revolutionize the porn world as we know it, but he dosn't even have paid hosting.

I know he's been through a lot of shit, but there are steps to opening a paysite. It's like a ladder. At least that's the way I see it.

Spacedog -- don't worry about these guys. I know guys that do very well with just a few dozen galleries behind an AVS.

I am by no means a pro on paysites -- but I know at least a couple of programs that focus on quality/originality rather than quantity... easier said than done though :p

it depends on your content.. 10000 dwarf images? yeah for sure.... but i wouldn't go making a paysite with 500 meg of non-niche freebie sponsor images.. im assuming you didn't pay right?

titmowse 12-17-2001 01:57 AM

you could lease some plug-in content like some games and a live cam feed, maybe a webchat. that could flesh it out for you if you want a paysite. if it's an avs, you've got enuff.

spacedog 12-17-2001 02:12 AM

Hey..
First off...I never said I was going to compete with the BIG paysites..
Second..Unlike most of you all..I have yet to create any paysite? So, due to no experience with it, I thought I'd ask the ones that know..I've seen quite a few paysites with not so many images...Besides..I don't plan on a mega site..just a small site..I planned on making the site free..(To an extent)..

My idea was to choose 2 sponsors to discuss my plan with about an idea..

Surfer joins my site for FREE for one year & get's 3 days free pass to several sites of 2 sponsors..THEN..if surfer does not cancel the 3 day pass, it would in theory recur at $signup rate X # of sites in package x 2 sponsors....
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

theoretically..the surfer will be so damn fucking busy surfing 50 ARS sites that he'll forget to cancel his membership..
SO, I'd get $35 per signup X 50 sites OR recurring...(But with 50 sites I'm doubtful of recurring..) This is just hypothetical..
Is it so much trouble to ask questions here..
It is a webmasters FORUM after all isnt it?

Now, if I don't ask, I'll never find out..AND, if I don't do it..I'll never learn experience...
And about the quip about free hosting...
Yep..for the galleries of my free site's..For this project NOPE!!!

Checks will be in the mail soon...that means extra $$$ for hosting & domain, etc..(hopeful/wishful thinking..)

And about the script thing..I never said I could write such a thing..just an idea because I thought it would work if someone was able to create such a thing...BRAINSTORMING!!!
& it is NOT sponsor content..
It is licensed content..

Quite a few pics..a dozen or so mpegs..
I can add some plug ins & add to this...

I finished opening a hundred or so zip files..& discovered that it's not 10,000 images...more closer to 4000 to 5000 with several CRAP which'll likely leave me with 2500 to 3000 useable images & the movies which are HQ w/sound & 1 to 3 min clips..

I just have motivation to try things..to experiment..to challenge things..to take on tasks & see where it can go...After all, if you can't have fun with it..then you can't make money with it... http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/biggrin.gif

I just made the first page for a tour..

Start by learning how to make a profit on paid hosting with free or AVS sites before you start with the paysite stuff.

If you can't do that, then there's no point in even moving up the next level.

I had it the other way around..
For an avs or paysite use pay host..for free sites & tgp galleries use free hosts...

The point I was making about that reply was that I WANTED to do the design....that's the whole point of being a webmaster..

You came in here asking for advice... ask a few people around here... I DO fuck around... and quite a bit... but there's almost always something to be learned behind it. Design is what I DO... it's what Hungryman does... you think the paysite owners out there that actually MAKE money got it from whipping up some homegrown bullshit? Why do you think people pay us? Is it because they need to give away their money?

Learn the hard way space... I don't really care. I'm fuckin' busy anyway.


quiet 12-17-2001 02:36 AM

a paysite that retains with 500 mb of content? on updates alone, we add like 4 - 6 times that, per month, per site. and you'll need more than that if you aren't shooting exclusive.

but if you are talking an avs site, that's a very different thing. you are not selling a stand alone site, you are selling access to a whole shit load of little sites.

That's not the only thing I was referring to. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/smile.gif You ignored an entire thread of people telling you that the content you have is not enough for a paysite. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/smile.gif It's not enough for a bi-monthly *update* on a general hardcore paysite, much less the main member's area.

Then you ignored someone telling you in all seriousness to get a professional designer for your tour. Regardless of whether you use his service or someone else's.

I give up. I tried.

Best of luck. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/smile.gif

I can't type my thoughts clearly...
I'll try to make it simpler...
I'm trying to LEARN how to DESIGN sites..like you & hungryman..I could give a rats ass if it flops..as long as it;
Functions & Operates properly..
Looks Great with nice layout & graphics..
and is perfectly scripted & coded..
I'm trying to learn to design AND make money..
That's why the no to hiring a designer..
I am constantly striving to LEARN & better my webmaster skills & knowledge..
There's WAY too much information for a human brain to absorb all at once in a self taught crash course..html/xml/dhtml/javascript/cgi/perl/php/MysQL/activex/flash/asp/htaccess/w3accessability/LAW/business/ Plain put..ALOT of shit out there & I am trying to absorb as much of it as possible on my own..No school..No diploma from 4 years of study in webmaster 404..(Though photo/video courses gave me a visual perspective)...

Beside's...Eventually I'll think of something unique enough in my own time..
Just brainstorming for all the information..
And I did'nt mean to imply your design skills were a joke..On the ccontrary, the opposite..Where your at..is where I'm trying to get...

Forgot to mention this..

Did I say START a paysite..
Yep..START..
Not once did I mention or imply or say that this content would be the whole of the site..
START..that's the key word here..

You figure, by the time I finish creating the tour, aquire the billing processor, code the pages, build the graphics, build the interfaces, aquire the domain name, set up an affilliate program, aquire an adequate host..aquire all necesarry records & legal doc's..(Were looking at least 2 to 3 weeks here..)..Well, that's a start..Kay..now after this..it's time to get MORE content because my surface is prepped so I can apply the finish...

NOW, I'll ask again..is this enough to work with to START a paysite..Not complete & make a whole..START OUT..Granted it will probably be a few weeks before any major traffic comes in..you know how much could be added in that time?
Maybe I don't type out the way I think in my head..

So..how much content did you all buy when you started your paysites or avs sites..
You go out & buy 50 gigs for the first start then 2 weeks later add another 50 gigs for your bi-monthly update..
In a year you must've added 1200 gigs of images....
Maybe this biz is only for those that got a fat wallet to begin with..

See..I can live with the free hosts & free content..because I make $$$ with it at this level...so, who knows what'll happen at the next level...
I aint no $100,000 a month webmaster like boneprone & hungryman & amp..(I'd like to..)
But My goals are realistic with realistic approach...
I aim at 200 week from 10 sponsors each to net $2000 a week..hey, if i make more..GREAT....
So, what's wrong with wanting to try & expiriment & learn how to make a paysite...

Jees..I only asked a question...
Like I was supposed to know..
I ask a question..i get ridiculed...

I'll just go over to netpond..they're not such wise asses.... http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/biggrin.gif

It took AMP nearly 4000 posts before I realized, "oh shit, this guy knows his shit, he's not just fucking around."

No wait... I mean, he fucks around a lot, but he knows his shit.

"NOW, I'll ask again..is this enough to work with to START a paysite..Not complete & make a whole..START OUT..Granted it will probably be a few weeks before any major traffic comes in.."

maybe try reading the thread again. several people have mentioned that for a stand alone pay site, you'll need several gigs per month of content for updates. this doesn't include your 'base' content which should *much* larger volume than your updates. and unless you are shooting exclusive content only, your milage will vary.

500 mb is not even close to being enough to start a pay site, let alone retain members. avs is a different story. completely different things.
