We also had high-profile guest galleries on Red's Realm, EveEllis...and a bunch of other larger bdsm/fetish sites at the time.

So we switched to paid hosting and converted the site to a paysite. If memory serves, our first sale came through overnight while we slept. Within a week or two the sales were constant and we couldn't believe the signups pouring in.

Those were the days (sigh)...

Blast from the past. I went over to Eve Ellis after reading your post and the tour is teensy and the join doesn't work. Wonder what happened.

Stacy Burke. :)

She's a great gal. I remember meeting her the first time at 2001 Bondcon in NY. One of my favorite pics I took that weekend was of her frolicking like a cat at our display booth.

Always wanted to shoot with her, but never had the opportunity.

(nice pics, btw)

Roald?

I think both of you misread. If I'm not mistaken Roald is saying she should have stayed with Freeones.

I put up fake personals ads on a now global postings site that started in San Francisco. In the ad I pretended to be a young woman of about 19 who had just posed nude and regretted it. I asked people to check out the site (I was promoting, teenrevenue) and tell me if I had been a good girl or bad girl. I would get 1,000 hits to the site (and some joins now and then) before the posting would get flagged.

THOSE WERE THE DAYS my friend, we thought they'd never end...

In 1992 when I was a sophomore in high school, I removed the label from a VHS tape of Ginger & Spice by Vivid and applied to where there was typically a label on the cartridge of some random Nintendo game. I told this kid at school that it was a special bootleg XXX Nintendo game that required a special cheat code and sold it to him for $20. Remember, those cheat codes could get pretty complicated. So I just made one up and then every day when he would come back to complain and tell me that it didn't work, I would just tell him that he got the code wrong or that I must have made a mistake and then would give him a new one with a slight adjustment. This guy was pretty much like the DV Times or Gary of my class, so I was able to keep it up for about 2 weeks. I gave him the $20 back but all those laughs my friends and I had about it were priceless. Haha!

If memory serves, it was from Cybererotica.

Made my first buck when someone hired me for a monthly contract in 2003. That was like the best thing that happened. High times lasted for almost 10 years. And then it slowly went down.. And now under.. lol Still surviving though. :thumbsup

NaughtyRob 07-22-2015 01:37 PM

Setting up models on ifriends. They didnt have tech knowledge so I'd go to their house and set them up and charge them $200. This is in 2000.

RyuLion 07-23-2015 12:58 AM

iBill, Epass, and Naughty America affiliate checks..

Calico Jack 07-23-2015 04:00 AM

Trafficcash Gold (or whatever they were originally called). 25 cents per click to begin but they moved me over to $35 per sale. Then the checks started to roll in.
I then signed up with ARS (great program in the day), MaxCash and DDF Productions (still with them) plus any others in the niche I specialised in and couldn't believe how easy it was making money off a few banners.
I started making my own galleries and started making ten times as much.
Made a couple of websites behind adult verification programs and made even more.
Making money was never so easy during 1998 - 2007.

I do remember how i spent my first dollars on adult..

natkejs 10-07-2015 01:16 AM

Adult Check here as well.

Had a celebrity site on onewebstreet.com, not for making money but because I enjoyed playing with HTML. One day some dude emails me about protecting it with AVS and I decided to try it out. Had no idea what I was doing or what to expect but a few days later I had already started to accumulate sales and before I knew it there was a check in the mail.

The banks here had no idea what to do with it though lol it was a bit of a process to get everything running smoothly :)

Magnetron 10-07-2015 06:21 AM

Started a personal website back in 2001. Nude art appreciation. No attempt at SEO. Didn't even have stats, so I couldn't say how many surfers it had ( but I doubt it was more than 100 daily ). Figured I could make a few affiliate sales to cover hosting. Signed up to Met-Art. Made my first sale within a week.

czarina 10-07-2015 06:26 AM

Adult Check for us too! Back in 1999... wow, those were the days!
