I am new!!! I have a question
 

Hey hows it going. I am new to posting on GFY!!! please welcome me!!!


I have 25K to invest, what should I do with it.. if I want to get started in the adult business....

You're not new so.........:321GFY

Probably start off the same way someone with nothing to invest would, hold on to that money, do the things you would do if you had no money for 6 months and then and only then do you know what you should invest that money in. Otherwise you're going to be jumping in with lots of money in a fairly competitive field and if you don't know what sells you could just be losing all of that.

25k - spend it wisely

Welcome to GFY! Invest in traffic or content!

stick the money in the bank.

First rule of webmastering, if you can't get it by sweat you ain't gonna get it.

25k .... run and go into another venture. There is no $$ in porn. we'll I take that back there are many things you can throw your money at.

My advice is... Dont spend anymore then 300.00. Test the waters and dabble in a niche you like. If that fails you can chalk it up to some good fun work while looking at naked chicks.

A little more advice... Buy some cheap content and some traffic make some cheezy paysites and spam the fuck out of this board. We need someone to make fun of

Hold on to it for a while. Wait till you know what this is all about.

Welcome.

25K.. invest it in GOLD.. real gold in your hand, not certificates

Welcome back :)

who dat?

The minute you end up buying traffic with that 25K is the mniute you start losing your little nestegg... first and only warning you may ever get.

he will also need a domain like aswanasanwane.com

forget porn, buy stocks...the good ones...

Welcome.

If you're new to adult you will likely lose that 25K investment in most business models. For instance, you could buy a tgp / link list and yet know nothing about running them. Similarly you could quickly learn how to setup a paysite and do it for 25K with a few cents change and yet fail because of inexperience and a poorly-crafted / researched site. You could offer $$$ to a mentor or for someone to sell you a way to make money but who do you trust and will you get ripped off? You could buy traffic but which traffic source to use and how to craft a great landing page?

Truth is, before you invest money you need to invest time - and lots of it.

What would I do in your situation?

I would learn seo, buy hosting and all relevant software (something for keyword research being top of the list...there are a few to choose from), and practice each day. Personally I would choose to go after dating and cams (that's what I know) but if you want to promote porn I would target micro-niches and attempt to dominate them. This would be a fairly stable business model that would weather recession pretty well because all your eggs are not in one basket and you're targetting different demographics.

Stuff it under your mattress!

hello, i am prince of hahahahahaha, i need to claim 5 000 000 000 dollars, but i can not depost them in my country, please open a bank account with 25000 , and i will let you get 10% of my money!!!!!!!

Welcome! :thumbsup

welcome :)

don't get fooled by the big figures they give every year, there is simply no money in porn. you better invest it in stocks.

Welcome then...

Welcome to the board. Invest that money wisely and long term. Build up a good base in whatever it is you are doing. And try to do as much grunt work yourself to start so you save as much money as possible untill things are rolling

Hello and welcome

Hey, mate! Welcome to GFY! Good luck! :thumbsup

:thumbsup:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

anyway,

welcome, u dun look too new, but welcome anyway :) i'd suggest u spend the 100 on some coffee, take a break from work and start reading this board and a few other boards (google them) for info.. only then u will knwo what u wanna do


i like the other guy's tip. Invest in shares, not porn (as of now) but of course u must do ur homework first.

A lot of good advice here. I usually tell noobs to Go Fuck Yourself, but in this case I'll take a moment to say what all of us know:

We are in a consumer marketing business. While we don't sell subscriptions to Time, People, and TV Guide, the same rules apply to us. Our business is recession proof maybe only a little. The businesses we depend upon to advertise with us and pay our commissions are going to suffer a decline in sales just like Wal Mart and other retailers. A decline in sales means a decline in advertising. It's the first thing people cut. A lot of marginal webmasters are going to be shaken out, and the rest of us are in for a tough year.

There are going to be a lot of distressed assets for sale, and the owners are going to pretty them and come to you with a deal if you encourage them, only a little.

Bottom line: hang on to your money until you are positive you know what you're doing.

welcome!!!

not a very good time for adult...

Go to the casino / roulette and put it on red or black.
If you win, invest 25k for exclusive content, good hosting and a nice website design. But don't expect any earnings from it.

the best you can do is learn as much as you can before you invest a shit load of money into something. This way you will know what you're doing even if it's not 100%. Jumping into something just like that without knowing anything is a bad mistake. Sure, some will say do this, others will say do that, but do you have any experience or knowledge in any of the things people are suggesting?

Learn as much as you can while trying different things on a small scale without having to spend all of your money or most of it. Once you have things nailed down you can invest a little bit more and see how that works, but NEVER invest your entire nest egg into something without LEARNING 1st.

I'm not gonna tell you try this or try that. All I will say is like I said above. Learn, learn learn.. Anything that you do is not a guarantee so don't just throw your money away. Whatever info people give you take it, go learn more about it, test on a small scale and see how it pans out. Never start big without prior experience and knowledge.

start a tube site. they're hot right now.

Buy some domains, they retain value long after the sites are closed.

buy some land in costa Rica!

You can buy cheaper land in Iraq This would be a very sound investment compared to Costa Chica

Hookers and blow!
