For Professionals only. How much money do you make out of porn?
 
Monthly, yearly...whatever. Doesn't matter where it comes from...cams, dating, whatever. Since I started in this business, I have bought 6 houses and a lot of world travel. No idea how much I make, but I assume most do.

...do you not pay taxes or something? How can you not know how much you make?

CurrentlySober 02-10-2023 06:46 AM

As I officially retired in 2013, what do I earn these days from porn? Pocket money.

From assets generated from porn? A healthy living by anyone's standards.

I'm not going to go into specifics of course - But if I gave just one example of the money I was generating back in the day, from just one single business interest - No one would believe me anyway...

& nobody like to hear someone boasting - Its just gauche...

For the longest of time companies and webmasters were fearful of posting what they made since government agencies do watch the webmaster boards. That's why you will never get an accurate amount as to how big the industry is. You get one person claiming $xxx amount of money and then that gets a warning flag - especially those who claim to have many homes - boats - travel etc. that webmaster/company may find themselves open to audit and can't figure out how it happened.

Be careful how you respond - not everyone who reads GFY is in the industry.

I'll post a purely HYPOTHETICAL figure here - Well, I'll let you lot do the math :1orglaugh

OK, first - Hypothetical Background info: So you have a basic membership site, couple of updates a week, 29.99 per month (well we shall say 30.00 for ease of maths)

Now you have a banner on a page that is visited by 3 and a half million people, over time period 'X'

Now, of those 3 and a half million people some HAVE to click your banner - Its the law of large numbers - Some will click it because they want to see your site - Some will click it because they just 'Liked the colour of the banner' - Some will click it by mistake - etc etc... Point being that a certain amount of people HAVE to click your banner - Again, law of large numbers...

So, lets say that less than 1% of the people who see your banner click on. Infact, lets half that - Half of One Percent of the people who see your banner are going to click it? How much is that?

3.5 million * 0.005 = 17,500 So, 17,500 people clicked on your banner...

Of that 17,500 how many people paid to join your site? Again, using the law of large numbers, lets say again that just half of 1 percent of those 17,500 people who clicked decide to go ahead and join up...

Of the 17,500 people who clicked the banner, 0.005 * 17,500 = 87.5 people actually paid you £30.00 each.

So, you earned 87.5 * £30.00 = £2,625.00

OK not bad... But what time period is period X? How long did it take for 3 and a half million people (already in the market for adult content) to be exposed to your banner?

6 Months? Congrats you've earned £5,250.00 a year! Whoop!

But what if I were to tell you that the time period of 'X' actually happened TWICE PER WEEK!

'X' Was from Monday Midday until the Start of Friday, and X period 2 was between the Start of Friday, over the weekend, until midday Monday...

So Congrats! You're now earning £5,250.00 a week! But thats still shit... And way off base... Why?

Because we are talking about the time period of the years 2001 / 2003... Not really early on in the game, but still in the internets golden years - Yeah, there's more competition - But also more people happy to use the credit card to PAY for porn... Kinda the sweet spot (imho)

And back then, fact is, it wasn't a case of 'Half Of One Percent' converting... It was a lot closer to 'One in Three' - So using the formulas above, you do the math...

During time period X 17,000 pre qualified leads arrive and ONE IN THREE converts to give you £30.00 - Period X happens TWICE a week...

Fucking scary! Especially when the sites running itself and you are free to give your attention to more lucrative matters... But like I said at the start.

THIS NEVER HAPPENED - EVER - ITS ALL HYPOTHETICAL...




coz remember...

i cunta4d2 tell the truth... :(

I was still in middle/high school building robots but not knowing how to make money with tech yet. :(
I didn't know about affiliate marketing until I was on Warez a few years later and someone said to sign up as an affiliate on Bang Bros to get free porn, then BB took down all of their promo videos/pics from the affiliate area... lol

I was hoping he'd pop in here. I need more pics of you all kilted up for my mental spank bank

you've inspired my kitten btw

but yeah, who else but Tube reveals their income in public (or in his case, the lack thereof)? tacky and a highly personal topic under nunya for all but relevant tax authorities

now I'm off to pop in my lambo to drive across the road to pick up some bananas and herb. it's like 50 feet away. I can't walk that in my LV's :upsidedow

A guy I know has been running one site for over 20 years. toon niche
He didn't update the site tour since it was made in the late 90's. He told me he makes over 10k/month with it and showed me his daily joins. I was shocked because it looked so old and outdated. He doesn't even have any real experience as an adult webmaster.. he was relying on a guy who built his site decades ago just to update it for him.. the guy recently died and he had me do it for him.. the site doesn't even have much content

He even had an A list mainstream celebrity get in touch with him through his site years back and offer him a business venture. He showed me pics and the contract ... still has her phone #.
it's really unbelievable shit.. never seen anything like it

this here is why there's not much innovation or disruptive designs in porn. its just not necessary lol. the demand for the niche/fetish (any!) and the rebills are enough for long term returns.

starting up a new paysite today is a bit harder. you have to get tapped into the traffic flow and most of the traffic is controlled by a few corporations. you have to make your own traffic, which takes time.

adult paysites are a long term play! :thumbsup

what's hard to believe? that she works hard and plays hard? she deserves all the well-earned joy she can get. not talking peeps possessions as that is a topic almost as boring as Tube's litany of 'file under no one cares' details of his appearance. just rather a peaceful, happy, lucrative existence

Nat and I go several years back..she knows me and if her life wasn't working for her she'd have multiple ways of contacting me off the board and I'd have her back 100% with every emotional and practical resource at my disposal. she knows this. she's happy. she's cool. lay off


btw Nat happy V day. totally sound like a curmudgeon in saying this but traditional western-euro holidays leave me cold

to break it down:

Christmas: "on earth peace, good will toward men" has no society ever practiced, ever

Thanksgiving: yay smallpox blankets! bring on the schools and sign our names with an 'X' on land treaties when the anglo lang wasn't even any of ours

Valentines Day: so one day to remind loved ones that they are loved? so basically Mother's Day :1orglaugh

(I still whatsapp my fav aunt every Mom's Day and I talk to my bio mom every day so it will be another [insert date here, fuck if I know])

@Nat so happy you had a wonderful one. I worked, worked out, cleaned the house, made some mental excuse to not do laundry that I'm sure was solid and logical at the time. right now I'm too high to care

mine is so criss times a zillion. I never felt truly at home in JA until I moved to my new town. just walking up to the street from the driveway I can start to feel the energy and everyone is just so fucking nice to me. this is not a tourist town, I'm a local, or so they deemed me pretty early on

so special

have a gorgeous and talented and intelligent man in my bed tonight (known him for over two years, he's a wonderful friend and we also enjoy each other all nekkid with zero complications) who has kinda been felled by the remnants of the hash I shared with a friend yesterday and he sent me home with a large portion

few puffs myself (I just got up to use the washroom and of course 'who has said crazy what' on gfy is an alluring attraction as I pass back to bed, if only momentarily)

I'm on my way back to semi-spoon him with the wicked book I'm reading for the first time (laugh if you want, just don't judge-both of us are cuddly) but I'll be lucky to get through a page and a half before the eyes shut the curtain

he's always down for minimum 2 rounds when he visits :upsidedow so the morning is young

keep rocking girl <3
