Every 2 years it seems I get a new idea on how to squeeze more out from my adult portfolio and it works so good I forget about the idea of selling it all and moving forward. It's been like that for the past 8 years. I kind of cannot get rid of all this money coming from adult industry.

Some things that worked 10 years ago still work just fine. Others don't, of course. If I didn't adapt I would have little to show, that's for sure.

But still it's funny how when you are playing in your little pond and hear stories how this and that doesn't work anymore while you know it still works just fine it makes you realize how you always have to read between the lines, take everything with a grain of salt, use common sense, read selectively, etc to get any useful info out of what is posted on the forums. It's funny how many people spread the wrong info and how many others believe them.

They send their traffic where the money is for them. And now that piracy is in full effect and entire members areas are ripped for free...the money isn't there for them to send to paysites.

The true "whales" that Nick refers to are pushing other things in adult: dating, cams, pills, etc.

And the ones that work with Nick are doing it all with mailing. He's the king.

So I'm afraid that guys like you and I are never going to have our wings to fly in that area. We will remain caterpillars crawling on the ground and never even get to have a cocoon, much less emerge as butterflies! lol
