Some Additional Tips or Q&A:

About Content Licensing:
1. You want to have licensed content, with 2257 docs.
2. Not all content providers will provide descriptions for scenes. I do, most do not.
3. Typically content is delivered by FTP, and you have to download it. HDrive costs more.
4. You do not need exclusive/semi exclusive/HD to make money. Especially on clip stores.
5. You can re-run the content over and over for years and make money.
6. Not all content providers allow clip store, or tube site, use. Check restrictions.
7. Most licenses are non-transferable.
8. You cannot license purchased content to others. But can sell to customers.
9. Not all content comes with images. Or vice versa.
10. Bit rate, and size or dimension of videos will vary with different providers.

Clips.Com:
1. They are another clip store type of site you can use. Hardcore will typically do better.
2. They default charge .25/50ct per minute versus C4S charging $1.00 per min.
3. They typically do not sell as well as C4S, but you can still make money with them.
4. Their interface, the approval process, and admin is a bit different.

Additional Quick Points:
1. You want to watermark all clips. Point domain to your clip store.
2. Schedule your updates once per day, and have them run through the day.
3. You can increase traffic with minimal promotion using TGP and other submits.
4. Use short clips or trailers in promotion (if allowed).
5. Clip stores pay once per month. Check/Wire/ACH.
6. You can start a clip store as an individual. I recommend long term you form company.
7. I would recommend you have at least three hundred, 5-10+ minute, clips to start.
8. Maximize your content. Pay sites, clip stores, DVD (if allowed), mobile, free sites, etc..

The clip store should be your first baby steps to making money with minimal risk in adult. Once you learn the ropes in a few months, and start understanding the how's and why's, you would want to either launch more stores. Or start upselling your pay site. At those point you would then point the domain to your pay site, instead of the clip store. Some people will want to pay on a per month basis, instead of on a per clip. So you would want to cater to both segments.

If you have minimal time, and simply want to do 2/5/+ clip stores alone, that's fine. Some people never open a pay site or sell DVD's etc.. It comes down to your time commitments and what you can ultimately do on a CONSISTENT basis. However, ultimately, you would want to provide these other revenue streams to get more business and sales.

This is a starting point for low risk, and R.O.I.. Not the end all, be all, to adult.
