Celebrity Fake Sites - Legal Risks
 

Hi,

I've been running 2 celebrity fake sites for a while now and the last couple of months my traffic and profits have increased consistently. So far this month I've made $700, which might not seem like a lot for some of you running larger sites, but considering I only do 15 min of work on the sites a day, I'm pretty happy with the earnings :) Obviously I want to continue my sites and earn even more :winkwink:

But, to get to my problem... Yesterday I accidentally stumbled across a post where the general consensus was that running celebrity fake sites is extremely risky due to the risks of getting sued. I never really took that into consideration as the pictures are fake... I understand you would get sued if they were real leaked pictures, but its fakes so obviously it's not real pictures of the celeb. So now I'm not sure if I should continue my sites...

Here's my questions:

1) What's the risk of actually getting sued in court? Do they tell you to remove the content first before actually taking any legal steps?

2) Would I be at less risk if I moved my sites to a host overseas? (My sites are currently hosted at hostgator since I live in US).

3) Where can I find more info on how to make my sites compliant the US adult laws? (Info that I'll actually understand :P ).

Thanks for your help!

move ur site and domain offshore.,
state on ur site that all pics are photoshoped/fake, something like that,,

my 2 cents.

Thanks for your input. 90% of my traffic is from the US so will there be a significant decrease in risk when moving the site offshore? Where should I host it? Netherlands?

Also, anyone running a fake site here?

Thanks :)

domain to internet.bs
host idk u can keep there but when start getting complaint then make sure u have backup host with all ur files ready.
then just change dns and bam, u have ur site :pimp
