But like you I often feel like just walking away and trying something else. Heck, I'm no where near making minimum wage for my adult blogging work so I might as well get a job at McDonalds.

I feel your pain brother. Porn is a fun niche, and I dream about having a network like the pornhub network.
But these people above saying "you need do SEO better" etc are sending you false dreams.
Yea the statistics of online porn is insane, I think we have all seen those info graphics on porn.
The fact is though this business is the most competitive business on the earth and it's being dominated by a few large companies that will eat up any competition in their path.
The business is also destroying itself. These porn tubes show all this content for free, paysites no longer advertise because they're not getting sales which means the porn tubes don't make much money either and it's a full circle.
Just recently a fairly large website with millions of viistors called YobT.com shut down. I imagine it's because it's just not profitable/worth wasting time doing this.
There's a GFY post about it here:

My recommendation. Don't quit completely, just dedicate less time to the porn sites and try to branch out into mainstream.
that's what i'm doing. I'm running UpVoat.com and a few other mainstream sites I do not want to name on here.
But the bottom line is branch out.
There's money in mainstream, that's for sure.
I read about a site called ViralNova.com which made millions of dollars with clickbait syle articles and facebook.
Here's the articles on it, they're worth reading:

It's what made me start UpVoat. The niche is a bit competitive now but i'm going to try it and see how it goes.
