Yep, I agree.

When you become full time then I would call that successful for sure. I see alot of people become happy with their spot and quit pushing forward though. Such a waste and in times like this you will be going out of business.

Well 1 sale a day average is less than a minimum wage job in the developed World, so I guess that would make you a webmaster but just not a successful one. On the other hand, 1 sale a day is somewhere around twice the average family income in Costa Rica, so I guess that would me you a successful webmaster in the third world.

1 sale a day is nowhere near success in my book. Not saying making sales are easy, but in reality it is. You work hard enough you can do better.

That's a good point. Leave it to WC to bring the international flavor.

I was thinking mainly in the USD, American standards but you're right. What it takes for US/UK to be considered 'successful' will be completely different in developing, or third world.

I think a person is "successful" when they can afford to live off of their money webmaster income. Once you achieve this, you should set levels you want to reach and then call that being successful. Or sustain an income you want.

1 sale per day * $30 on average sale would be $900 a month. - expenses (- tax money you set aside) = profit.

So basically....
1 sale a day = $10,800 a year
2 sales a day = $21,600 a year
3 sales a day = $32,400 a year

... and so on... but don't forget taxes , hosting , and other expenses.

or if ya own your site with SEO traffic...

1 sale a day = 35K
2 " = 70K
3 " = 105K

That's personal experience...

Well, if you send your traffic to revshare sites that update regularly, keep the members for a long time you can make decent money with one signup per day as it's 1 sale + x recurring after a few months - but that's just my opinion

5-10 sales a day can easily make you $100K+ a year if you pick your sponsors right.

Even in a big American city, $100k and working from home is pretty good and I would call someone like that successful. Heck, someone who makes $50K a year and gets to work from home is doing better than 90% of the population. They won't be anywhere close to being rich but not having to work for the man......you can't put a price on that.

Well if you can live of off 1 sale a day I guess It atleast makes you a full time webmaster. The successful part is more hard to determine. I don't consider my self successful and I do more than 1 sale a day.

Being a "webmaster" has nothing to do with sales.

An "an affiliate in the adult online industry" and a "webmaster" are two very different things.

technically yes, but these terms mean the same in this biz

if you're an affiliate actively sending traffic to paysites and making a living from it, you're considered an adult webmaster


just like 'hits' mean 'unique visitors'

No it doesn't. There are plenty of site maintainers, programmers, designers, etc ... that don't really care about sales.

These are just as much (or more) a webmaster than someone who hires people to make galleries for them and submits them to some sites.

(yes I know most affiliates go way beyond that, especially these days, but you get the idea)
