If you wanna make money in adult ...
 
Stay away from here, between the racist BS, posting of news articles on phoney sites and the overall anti adult vibe that comes from here is crazy. Good thing I dont manage this place or all these POS passing bullshit info about the business and its state would be banned.

You noobs, are being lied to so that the big boys can stay on top.



Rant over.

Thanks for the 'hot tip' top notch.

Appreciated.

Outside of YNOT, this is the best source of news for the adult industry.

signupdamnit 03-24-2014 06:55 AM

I always kind of see it much in the opposite way. If you listen to the people here you will get nowhere. But that's because it's mostly shills and sig whores. People will tell you to try a known 90% shaver and then three months later they are posting a testimonial for a different scumbag. It's been that way since about 2008 and it's only been getting worse.

Then some guy will be on here bragging and calling everyone else a loser and then six months later you'll see a post from him about getting a real job or going back to school. Either that or you'll see him selling everything for under $10,000 or begging for money or a loan.

Then of course you have the reps and the owners. Everybody scratches each others back for brownie points and the reps do it because well maybe that company will give them a job after their current company has to go out of business! :1orglaugh

If you're really still making a killing with TGPs good for you man. Keep it up! I really hope it's true. :)

This is the same post that has been made in one form or another every day since I first came here in 2001 - Of course its not the same as yesterday and it certainly isn't the same as it was last decade...

The whole business has moved on for better or for worse - GFY has done the same - It's not as busy and the trolls have different names (some of them anyway) - Like the rest of the biz, its harder but its possible to use GFY to your advantage.....

It is true, you get on my icq 204829316 ill show some screen shots, there isn't a website in adult with general traffic with the typical countries that I couldn't make bank. Unless your getting ripped off by your host. TGPs do take time to build now though, having your own hosted galleries and SE traffic is a must.

Paul 03-24-2014 07:48 AM

If GFY made a custom plugin for Vbulletin that hid the threads of the posters on my ignore list that's all I require!

That would filter out at least 90% of the bullshit

GFY would not be here if the BS wasn't here - GFY has been here longer than almost every other adult business - Affiliate progs, TGPs, Free Sites, Tubes etc...

Bitch all you want - GFY will be here when you are cashing in your welfare check.....

In fact, to say thank you properly I'll post up some conspiracies :pimp

GFY has always been a BSing board and as such has managed to stay alive while most other boards are long gone and dead. If this board was turned to business only, it would be dead within six months.

I have heard the same arguments why GFY will be dead by the end of the year since 2001 - 2014 - Still here...

Yup.

People cry out for business threads, but it was always the fucking around that kept everyone hooked in the first place.

A nice mixture of business and fucking around is ideal, but remember their aren't so many in adult now, and many people know mostly what they need to know for what they do by now. Unlike when i first joined way back and everyone was still learning from scratch almost.

Take it for what it is. Don't like it, the door is right in front of you...

It depend who much he sends to gallery/sponsor. Take 60% of 300,000 (180,000) and then CTR 5% (it is big) - 9,000. So 2-3 sales from 9,000 hits is OK i believe this days.

No man I believe you. 2-3 sales on a 300K network isn't that great though. I mean today it's great to have that much traffic but at $30 per sale average that is $60-$90 a day. It's an accomplishment for the times but if you were around in 2005 then you probably know you would have made $600 - $900 a day with that same traffic.

I don't disagree, I've only said that it would be nice to have an option to filter out the BS for anyone who wishes to use such a function.

Most of the people who post here wouldn't use a filter like that anyway because...

A) They're just surfers who spend all day posting on GFY
B) Still live at home with their parents, some of whom are in there 30s & 40s...
C) Bitch & whine about piracy over & over & over... "Tubes, File Lockers & Torrents Oh My!"

Anyway rant over :)

GFY can remain as it is for all I care, I'd just like the option to completely ignore about 80% of the posters.

ITraffic 03-24-2014 11:04 AM

2-3 sales a day, is that correct ...

What about posters like DVTimes who'll post literally anything from the BBC & Daily Mail on a daily basis? There is absolutely no purpose to that, it's completely and utterly irrelevant!

If it was one or two threads daily from mainstream sources that had some relevance to the adult industry I'd have no problems with that but it's verbal diarrhea most of the time :)

True enough, Ive been here for 15 years, my network is only 2 years old. But yeah, I miss the good old days, but there is also new ways to make money with tgps in these times.

Thats just average, I got sposnors doing 1:2k that is just overall, content is king so I must use sponsors nowadays that dont really convert, but I make up for it in otherways too, I get about 15+ sales a month using aff programs plus there are others Im not mentioning :)

But vs what it cost to run and what you earn, its still worth it, the numbers in $$$ vs the cost of hosting have made it so that the lost of rev since 2008 isnt as bad as one would think feeling out the atmosphere here.

It might have something to do with that most noobs dont have a hole lot of time I guess to build anything that they have to update them selfs.

If you're really still making a killing with TGPs good for you man. Keep it up! I really hope it's true. :)

then there's guys like you. Bitter that they can't figure out how to make money in todays market. Refusing to evolve along the way, as anyone should with any business. Talking about the good ol' days as if going back to such things is EVEN POSSIBLE. Instead of reaching out to people who remain successful, trying to learn how do the same you come up with excuses and scapegoats as to why you can't succeed. You blame everyone else but yourself and when you get made fun of for it you attempt to drag everyone through the mud like a child not getting what he wants.

Before you think i'm picking on you I don't get a long very well with the OP on most things either but it would be idiotic for me not to have anything but respect for the fact that he has been around this long and still gets by. Maybe instead of sharp shooting him on how 'little he is making' maybe you can learn something from him instead?

insulting reps? seriously? most of them aren't even aloud to respond to your bullshit so that's as about as cowardly as they come, congratulations.

You keep saying all these things about me yet as far as I know really you don't know who I am. I know you dislike me and you have for a long time ever since I called out Pimproll for having crappy ratios back in 2007 and then again numerous times since then:

https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=768975

But that's just the truth. While others were doing 1:1000 in those times you guys were always doing shitty for me. The 1:3681 back in 2007 became 1:6000 by 2011.

I keep saying it again and again. I don't think the industry is completely dead. Only that pay sites for affiliates are far in decline and that usually there are other things out there with better returns instead. Because I don't choose to promote pay sites as an affiliate doesn't mean I'm not making money in the industry. At the moment I'm doing well with Dating and growing. But guys like you don't listen. You only talk loudly. They always do.

Btw, It's "allowed", not "aloud".
