I'd like to preface that I'd be new to the industry, but am decently aware of the industry and its players. And I have experience creating, running, and maintaining complex sites used by millions of users from scratch. And running ads, getting extremely creative with monetization to squeeze money out of such projects, but all non-adult.

So when I came across and was able to nail down a very solid and continuous traffic source for a sort of "tube site", I needed to know if its worth the effort. Knowing that adult networks payout a fraction of traditional networks, can a site be sustained with adult ad networks (exoclick, trafficstars, adsterra, juicyads, whitelabeled cams, etc)? Given the dynamics, a realistic goal is to hit tens of millions in monthly impressions, almost entirely tier 1 (80%+). But that comes with server costs, storage costs, then potentially CDNs etc -but I have the experience to keep infra costs very low.

Would love to hear the experiences of other site owners working in a similar traffic range (x mil per mo) and others who have experience with these networks, and potentially some roundabout numbers. Feel free to ask for more reasonable details.
