Dude I'm a firm believer in going for your dream so keep at it. Based on what you've said so far, and how you've said it, you have many, many things against you.

The following is some advice that will save you a lot of time and money:

1) Define EXACTLY what your niche is. (I.E. BBW hairy anal. BBW shower sex. BBW food porn etc )

2) Research other amateur sites that are doing what you want to do, out of your state.

3) Document, shot for shot, the ones that connect with you most. Then change that formula to what you think people in that niche would also want to see.

4) Connect with those other content producers via their sites, their social media, and threads you create here. Tell them where you're located, that you're new, you have a passion for this niche & you love their site. Then ask them 2 important questions that you think you need answered to further your endeavors.

You are not at the point yet of paying models because you don't have a defined niche and you'll be wasting your money. The half a day rate Infected quoted was fair for where you're at, the extreme amateur level. But once you start making money, pay the models better, that's how it's done.

Also remember that you're on a business board and other advice you receive might be geared towards someone else's agenda and not necessarily yours, or in your best interest.
