Whats holding you back in the industry?
 

For me its a lack of content. If i could get my hands on some good quality content i would be laughing all the way to the bank. I see so many new programs come out with great content
but either the support sucks,they don't pay or they think there shit don't stink.

Half of these programs you see going under is mostly do to there own fault. There is nothing more that burns my balls more when i see this happen. Affiliates get fucked,account reps get fucked and so on. How fucking hard is it to pay people on time,provide good promo materials for affiliates and have a ear in place when there is a issue. This is not fucking rocket science. If you can manage to put all those SIMPLE pieces together then you will have a successful and very profitable business .

Ok thats the end of my rant :1orglaugh

Well, I used to have a lot of excuses. Now I'm legally blind. :D

It slows me down a little. I'm dealing with it, learning a new career...

You know i was just thinking about you the other day. Glad to see you still hanging in there man :)

For me it's getting paid faster to create more content to make more money to create more content..............Did that make sense:helpme

Well let me be the first to say that you type extraordinarily well for a blind person! :thumbsup:thumbsup

lol it did. Man oh man i have tried many times to shoot content and it looks like crap. 4 years ago i would of said traffic is king now its the other way around. Shooting content is a lot harder then it looks:)

Best part of my life is still ahead. :thumbsup

the lack of time

Are you still selling rickrolled.com man ?

:thumbsup

yes it is. It can take 4 hours to get that 35 min. scene with matching hi rez stills. And when the male and the female dont like each other it can even be worse. Every good scene has a back story, they just dont happen.lol


its easier when you have a system down.:2 cents:

You know this year i turned a new leaf. I have always been one to let things slide and to turn a deaf ear. Well this year things are different from now on. I have seen the multiple times you contacted me about this. with you truth is i just flat out have been ignoring you. From all the stuff i seen posted about issues you having with owning money and so on i do not have the time or interest of doing any business with you. Just calling it as i see it sorry :2 cents:

Being held down by the man

I just simply do not have an excuse for whats held me back.

Trust me it ain't easy.... I don't post too much stuff here because you know people will ripe it apart, "yeah I know if you can't take the heat thing", but it's not easy and what it dose to your back isn't pretty either :Oh crap

Time. Never enough hours in the day for what I wanna do.

ditto, if it wasnt for sleep and fatigue i could just keep going

Time... for sure.

And also traffic, no one visits my sites except me and the google bot.

Don't let the join date fool you, I still have no clue what the fuck I'm doing :2 cents:

Fear and loathing...

Time and the economy.
Economy: No matter what some people will insist (and a *few* may be telling the truth), revenue DID take a big hit in the second half of 2008; blaming it on the economy is not a guess or a feeling, that's from talking and emailing with many long-time members and customers, a number of whom I've known personally for 5-15 years.
Time: I moved from "committed relationship" to "family," and while I wouldn't give up my wife and precious baby daughter for anything, trying to do the family thing the right way has cut down drastically on my working hours and productivity.

I guess it's me being too lazy...

my mom only let's me use teh internets until 8pm :(

A good programmer, and designer.

I have two dozen killer ideas sitting on the shelf because, at the moment, I do not have the time or patience to go digging through an endless list of portfolios on coders who may, or may not, be ready to work.

:disgust

We doing ok, but we could be doing better with more traffic from Affiliates.
We get about 150K Uniques per month and have to work too hard to get them on our own :(

Even thought we convert extraordinarly well is joust hard to get affiliates to sign up in a new program, for the reasons somebody allready named in this thread "Too many Skumbacks cheating on Webmasters"

Lack of hours in a day.

Time, and a lack of good sponsors that payperminute/sms for dutch users.

pretty much everything but my gfy nick.. lol

Spending a lot of time getting to know people on this side after being strictly DVD guys for years. There are some tight knit fraternities that are hard to party crash:(

I am the laziest person I know.
