This weekend i was setting up www.zenfolio.com for a friend of mine. He is planing on selling what he shoots to end users who he hope will buy the prints.

Can the same done in adult, its like Clips4Sale model but a bit more advance. I guss traffic is the big issue. You can have the best technology but if the site does not get traffic then you dont make much

Clips4Sale is just a stripped down website non-subscription service whereas selling prints requires physically mailing something which, to be honest, I don't trust the US postal system as far as I can throw them as far as their ability to entrap hard working folks just because they mail something to a certain location. But to each his own. If it's a viable business model then why not give it a shot?

Yep. Pixel pushing is problematic enough. Sending adult thru real life channels even more so.

We have sold some to surfers, mostly the archival content I shot in 1980/90s. With the new site going up soon I will be selling via that site.

I think it really depends on what you have. If you have content that is the same as lots of other content the surfer is not going to be that much in love with it and that sadly is the pigeon hole most content providers fit into.

Eva did well on clips4sale and will get back to it when she's well.

Yes I have.
It's called custom work.
