Hey Shap,
As you've heard a Million times, Congrats on your 9 years. That is a long time to grow and sustain in this business. I haven't had the pleasure of working for your company as of yet but maybe that will change in your 10th year. I've only been in a short time (3 years) and I've had my official website for the past 2 years. (Kellydivine.com).
To reiterate this is a huge thread for the "small guy". Getting inside from those who have "made it. You never see the owners of brazzers, bang bros, RK, Naughty America, etc on here giving up "trade secrets" on how to become successful in our field.
As Barbi lightly touched on, your speaking more of a Multi-girl Model site and for myself which is a Solo Model format I would really like to hear what you think would be the best way to grow and keep growing will working with limited budget and minimal staff.
Im 2 years in the business with my site and I do well. Its just myself and my partner pounding the pavement making our mistakes and trying to learn from them.
Organic traffic is always great but what do you think its worth it to go through the process of building and populating your own Blogs, TGP's to get niche traffic for a 2 man staff with limited resources? Buying traffic is always and option but its a crap shoot so how do I maximize on the traffic that I buy? How do I know if my tour needs improving verses me not having enough traffic coming through to triple, quadruple my sales? Would adding niche sites as part of my program be a help or hindrance to the success of my site/brand? How much time should I spend and how often should I do gallery submissions? How do I know what sites are "worth" Submitting to?
I'd appreciate your feedback.
