i remember you writing that you should do porn site reviews. here you claim to know how to fix every paysite. you write on gfy for hours every day but you aren't proving anything. like the college professor who teaches you how to run a business but could never do it himself. worthless chatter
Clearly a not very bright reply.

The paysite was based on the content store and magazine content. It was impossible to go back and re-shoot it and we weren't going to start shooting all content just for the site. We did shoot a few scenes for the site and they did very well. Judging me on something we had earnt money on by selling offline, then selling online and then selling in a members site isn't the brightest thing.

To of started a paysite the way I would want it would of meant going back to the UK and giving up an extremely lucrative business in Czech. something you wouldn't gamble your families future on, neither would I.

However let's look at your marketing advice and how to build a successful site.

1. Get Social
The most important element of running a s solo model website is connecting with your fans. This is called ?getting social?. Regardless of your niche, you have fans that want to talk to you. So give them easy ways to do it! Make sure you are on as many social networks as possible and promote your social profile links on your website.
Here?s a minimum list of sites you MUST b be on:

Facebook (http://www.faceook.com/)
YouTube (https://youtube.com/)
Twitter (http://twitter.com/)
X-Peeps (http://www.xpeeps.com/)
Daily Motion (http://www.dailymotion.com/)
Live Video (http://www.livevideo.com/)
Deviant Art (http://www.deviantart.com/)
uStream (http://www.ustream.tv/)

Signing up to each of these sites is an easy first step. Keep your presence active by regularly posting updates to each site (and be sure you read the terms of service on each site! Some don?t allow nudity). Post daily to Facebook and post videos on YouTube at least once a week. You can even embed the YouTube videos right on your Porn CMS homepage to help promote both your website and your YouTube profile.

This as far as marketing advice is pretty basic. It's like me saying if you want to shoot porn, get a camera and find a model. Basic and misleading. I could write a far better marketing document than that. It just tells people to go to sites.

Maybe if you had watched more than a minute of my scene you would have a better idea on how to advise people, how to make more money.

your marketing advice is basically go to sites and post. Post what, create what, what can you do to make it work?

traffic is just a very small part of the game. Building tons and tons of traffic to watch boring porn isn't working now. It's 2011. Get with the program.

Can I tell you how to advise people better? For sure I can, I've survived 34 years and had to adapt more time than most here.

You'll keep flaming rather than sitting back and thinking "What if he's saying something I should think about?" That's the way a real businessman works.

I looked long and hard at starting a paysite and came to the conclusion that throwing up another site based on girls who couldn't string together a simple sentence in English would require major traffic work. Because it had little to sell itself on. Moving back to the UK meant going from shooting over 200 sets a year back to shooting 40. Because of the quality and quantity of good girls. That's 160+ sets which sold for $3,000 a time on average. Would you had risked an income of size on a gamble?
