From 2003-2007 I always felt left behind, everyone seemed to be making a ton of sales and I had no idea where to start. I was still building freesites, trying to submit galleries, and couldn't figure how to get good partner passes or how to grow an MGP. Paid spots and paid submit passes seemed unaffordable. I spent years trying everything and couldn't generate any significant revenue. I was supplementing affiliate commissions with programming gigs and it was pretty discouraging.
Starting my own paysites in 2008 finally changed everything for me, now I was making 2x per sale, getting more recurring revenue, and at the same time figured out how to scale what worked for me (clip dumps and blogs at the time).
For a more recent story, I started a new site last summer on paid traffic, and it took me about 9 months to become profitable.
