Can you make $100k a year making avs sites, if you started today?
 

like if you started now and busted your ass?

why not just start a paysite?

I know at least one person who has....

One tip... think gay!

nooooo, there is Noooo money in porn

Juicy does AVS?

i doubt 100k, maybe 30k tops. but that is a shitload of work.

you can make an avs site everyday but cant make a paysite everyday

thats it? no way that cant be right.

Do you want all your eggs in one basket ?

Sure... if you dropped about $100k in advertising for them. I did AVS for 5 years... the traffic to links pages has gone to shit so unless you have your own... fuhgetaboutit

Too much work involved, but I'm sure someone somewhere could do it. Not so long ago you could make ten avs sites every day, submit them, and rake in loads of cash on upsells. Don't think you can do that anymore. :drinkup

If TopBucks thinks its not worth the effort anymore, neither do I.

the eggs in my other basket are slowing down and I'm looking for a way to make $100k this year and want to know the income potential of avs

The whole biz is based totally on marketing. Avs? The same - Once you get seriously involved with avs and start bulding and driving traffic to your sites, you have chances to make cash from sales, and then upsells to "gold" (etc) and affiliate sales - (These chances increase once your sites are in the system and getting traffic from aother sites also in the system)
100k should be a benchmark, rather than, Can you make - Look at the possibilities and the probabilities become certainties.
But - I hope you are also looking at other methods of marketing - Stick with one and for sure, the bubble will burst sooner or later -
A nice earner I got involved with a few months back was pay per click - It took some time to get profitable, but, the surfers I sent into the system are recurring really well and every DAY my take is better than the previous day. Both sending traffic and site building works very well - Check out the system of pay per click in my sig. -

TopBucks did avs in the past and dropped it?

in short: no

avs is so 1998

Sounds like you want to depend on the small AVS sites for traffic. Don't think it will work.

Build one good, solid premium AVS site and then market it every way possible. Free sites, small AVS sites, TGP and MGP galleries, build TGPs of your own, link lists, etc.

still pays a lot of my bills though..it is all in how you do it and what you promote.

If you have your own sources of traffic, maybe. If you plan on relying on AVS' own traffic, I would doubt it UNLESS you spend a lot of time building filters that can convert the networks' traffic. It takes time cuz you only have 1 chance a day to make a guess re what elements/text items would convert to get to your goal.

Here's a source of other FREE adult traffic: http://justtraffic.blogspot.com

AVS ? I don't think so...
But if work with PPC SE (PaySE or UmaxSearch) - then my answer is YES, it's possible. :winkwink:

AVS no way....... adwords/se listings/paysite yes.

AVS is dieing....

yeah right lol

lol :1orglaugh

well yeah thats what I meant by working my ass off. I wouldnt just mke an avs site and leave it there, id be working to send traffic to them

I think AVS are so of the past. You can make a lot more with TGPs and mainly with Link Lists.

AVS is dying. Just look at the linklists, which were a major part of AVS traffic.

There are hardly any AVS listings anymore.

Not sure I agree. I think AVS hit a low awhile back and is on a rebound of sorts. If things get crazy with government regulation, AVS will sky rocket. Building your own site is easy to say, harder to do. Content that keeps surfers cost $$$.

Either way, everything is about traffic. No traffic no sales. Got it sell it, need it, buy it! Luv to say "see sig"

Much hassles & time wasted... small to medicore $$

There won't be much to filter. Can't make gold from shit read 5 hits per week.

learn how to generate traffic first.
then you can sell them anything you want.
without the traffic you ain't shit.

build it and they will come is a fucking lie.

OK.... I have had a few large vodkas so listen up.....

Get some good GAY niche (Old v Young is great) content from a SMALL sponsor.... Build a nice AVS site - Use UGAS and GMP

Build a couple of free sites pushing to the AVS and submit to -

Manpics
HunkHunter
SinbadsBookmarks
LinkMeAllOver

Repeat daily...... I dont do it any more, it gets fucking tedious after a while, so I dont mind sharing

Forgive my AVS ignorance, but are you saying that you get sponsor content and use that for an AVS?

Isn't that against the sponsor's ToS?

Just upsell the sponsor inside the AVS

Trust me they wont complain! :winkwink:

YARGH! *Chio goes below deck and waits for the scallywaggers to leave* HAHA avs is dying. YARGH! keep thinkin' it! post it everywhere "There is no money in AVS"

If you're concerned about it ask the sponsor first. I have yet to have one say no. Just make sure you upsell them.

Incidentally I started with AVS in October and am close to the 100K level now.

Also, do a search baddog had a good thread a while back.

Nice stats;) How long is a period?

YARGH! From the capper, it looks to be 2 weeks ya scallywaggin' fruit!

You can do anything if you have the skills, experience, talent money and time to back it up.

It's not all about traffic, it's all about converting traffic.

This will take the skill to put together something that the traffic wants to buy. So you need to know what you are buying for content, able to design the best way to display the content, experience on how to generate the traffic. And in that order.

The idea that you can throw as site together and send traffic to it to make money is SO 1998!!!!

I think you could for sure. I would suggest some high end deluxe pass sites and some paid gallery spots to get going. Good luck.

PS I do not think just submitting sites to the avs directory and counting on the upsells will work like it used to in the old days.

spoken like a content guy...traffic is king though.

You have no idea what you are talking about

More important than building a new site every day, is promoting the one you have. Your thought process is so 1999. Learn to AVS in 2005. There is a difference.

good memory

Don't ask people that have no clue.

Welcome to the 21st Century. Promote your AVs just like you would promote your paysite and you will rake in the bucks. Wait for the AVS to send you the traffic and you will likely starve.
