What do you do when you know things are going bad?

Most of you know I disapeared for some time and the reason was a number of things including epass going down the pan Well it came to a point where I had to make a decision to sink or swim . I was getting to the stage where I was going to loose all of my sites and not only that but also loose a lot of webmasters trust whom I have done biz with.

I know a lot of webmasters are going through some tough times now and a lot have just simply disapeared taking webmasters money with them.

To cut as long story short I got off my ass and got a job outside of adult so that I did not let the people down who I had done biz with.

I will continue working in my job and also work on my sites and I am now in a much better situation with regular money coming in which in turn also gives me more money to pump into my sites.

So in short if you are going through a bad patch with adult ..get off your ass and do something about it. Dont just sit around and hope things will get better all of a sudden cause they wont.... To often I see posts on here where webmasters just give up... there is always a way forward no matter how hard it gets ..


Would love to hear some of the other webmasters struggles and what you did about it

pep talk over

Nice to hear you are back on your feet. Like my wise old grandfather once told me, "It's not how hard you fall that matters, it's how fast you get back up..." and was 110% right!

Glad to hear you're doing better, and that you did something to improve your situation, instead of pout and point your finger at others. Things will only continue to get better for you, I'm sure.

I admire what you've done halfpint! Respect

My situation was the other way around, I needed to get out of the day job in order to have enough time to make decent money as a webmaster.

I was earning great money a few years ago but one thing I have learned in running adult sites is that if you do not have a specific niche or keep up with current trendz that money stream very quickly drys up

All the best and hope you do well now and in the future
