Yep. Amazon changed Kindle Unlimited to focus on Page READS instead of BOOK BORROWS.

That's why my company produces ebooks a certain way to MAXIMIZE page reads. Gotta stay two steps ahead of Amazon :)

Let's put it this way, one client who bought several dozen books makes $900 a month like clockwork JUST OFF ONE of those books. I don't have figures for the other books. This is PASSIVE INCOME.

However, there are many PARTS of the Kindle income puzzle and I'd be glad to explain and help you guys walk though these different hurdles so you can have a Kindle income stream.

I agree! I bit the bullet the other day and paid a lot for a high end programmer to bridge a technological gap I was having on my new project . So far so good :thumbsup He got the grasp of every aspect of what the end result will be. Very refreshing.

That's really good advice - I honestly don't know how to attract them. Would you feel the same if the choice was between cheap and mediocre?

Well, cheap (affordable) and good aren't necessarily mutually exclusive. Keep in mind that there are 3 factors that are always at play: CHEAP, GOOD, and FAST. You can only pick 2 at a time.

Ask away. I'd be glad to help.

If you need other mainstream business ideas like FLIPPA-based income methods, ask questions about that as well.

Knowing how to run an adult biz (either as an affiliate or program operator) gives you all the skills you need to transition to mainstream. You just need to make SOME ADJUSTMENTS.

The rules are the same: RETURN ON INVESTMENT (ROI) and RETURN ON EFFORT (ROE)

When I'm in the area I can knock on the door, but there is a far bigger market to reach, so working on the email approach. Struggling to find the tone atm.

I think it's a lot easier to send an email first, or make a phone call. You'll cover a lot more ground that way and just set up appointments with interested parties.

Cold calling is a one call close, and if someone says no to your face it's a lot harder to get them the next time?.versus an online or phone no.

Well so much for that. Is Freelancer.com a source for quality programmers?

What are you struggling with right now? Where do you need help? Let me know :thumbsup

Lets say you are starting from zero, and you try to make money from porn sites... What type of websites would you recommend working on, and why? What would be a good business model for this? Traffic trading / live cams / dating, something else? The more info, the better (if possible).

Thanks.

I paid the programmer on the 7th. it's been 11 days. It worked out. I just need that part of the project tailored so my API is sending/receiving/processing authorization tokens integrated with a form and a client request page.

Enlightenment is my biggest struggle right now :banana

Your best bet is probably to go after a niche you like and you can spot an opening in. If you like it and you have experience with the sites in that niche there is probably a good chance you can find an opening in the market to make your mark.

Cams and Dating are probably your best long term bets.

Lack of capital and private time. I've been spinning my wheels for years and just making it because I lack the money for advertising and a new machine plus I have people around me 24/7 where I can't just end up with a bunch of porn sites on my desktop. September is looking bright! It's the most wonderful time of the year! Oh and I don't think I give things enough time. I start something, get frustrated that it doesn't work in a week and move on to something else.

Thanks for the previous answer. As a second question, are you familiar with traffic trading / SmartCj.com sites? How would I get this to work, as a network, and with a goal of 100,000 daily traffic, and everything done correctly / very good?

I probably wouldn't start a CJ or traffic trading site. I believe you'd be working your ass off to acquire garbage traffic. If you want to start cheap maybe start with a tumblr site (maybe check out crak media tutorial on tumblr) and build a following there. Good soft way to get into the biz and learning about it.

Good luck with that. Carving out the free time is probably the key for you. Carve out a little more each day and you may have a nice boost in business.
