Since when after you started in adult, did it start paying your bills?
 
After you started in adult, since when did it start paying your bills?

I'd have to say day 1 because I was into mainstream and got into adult because of a good job offer (didn't know it was adult until I signed NDAs, lol)

What about you?

We were already doing porn before we got onto the the Net, just thought it would be an extra source of income for our content. The stores became our biggest source of income about 1 year to 18 months after open the first content store. The other sources had not declined. :thumbsup

First week, but it was a little easier to make bank from a free site in 98.

Maybe 8-12 months after I started in adult it was paying a respectable percentage of my total bills.

6 months, started Oct 2006

Worked my ass off though. Its even tougher to grow now, but still possible :)

Had 37 members within 4 hours of taking my site online in 98. Has paid all my bills since and is the only thing I do.

took me about six months to go from zero to 10k a month but like others said, this was in 99. Though I was only 20 and didn't take it very seriously. I Should be retired by now.

From the time when I went into adult full time?

Nine months.

That includes paying for the models, photo shoots, all associated costs, plus my monthly recurring personal bills. Housing, food, electric, truck, etc. 100%.

We were making sales within 24 hours, but that was almost 10 years ago now.

I started making enough to pay my bills once the first check arrived, so with in a couple weeks after I started. I countinued to work a job, so i could save my porn money to invest into my own site, which took a couple months, kicked off the new site and quit the job, that was Oct 1999. Never worked for anyone else since then other than doing consulting like work.

Started learning html in late '97 after a career ending back injury. Started earning money by early '98 while on worker's comp and later working another job at the same place as before. By late '99 I had dropped the job thing completely and became a fulltimer working from home.... and have never looked back. Don't miss having a jay oh bee and working for someone else either.
