What single individual veteran do you think made the most money in adult?
 

And got out. Started Pre 2005-06 as after that the corps really fucked with shit.

Deepak Agarwhal from Deecash. Pre-checked cross sales baby, woo!

Dee cash made tons of money but I don’t think he is close. I remember hearing when he wanted money to gamble he would just bang a few cards for the cash 😂

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

When I was promoting DeeCash with a domain I owned, someone found my registrar info and called me and screamed that I ripped him off for $300+ on his credit card in the middle of the night. It took me awhile to figure out what was going on, but that week DeeCash folded and and jig was up. I felt bad for the guy and told him to talk to the credit card company. He was so livid! I had to explain the affiliate marketing business to him because he wanted to press charges on me.

TheGeneral, Scott Pbits and Lasrado

First time they used that Epoch mail list they clocked more than 50,000 sales in 12 hours.

Greg Lasrado close second. https://www.smh.com.au/national/the-...11-gdsd7h.html

Kremen or Cohen.

MarkDe from ars for sure. Deepak made a lot but his overhead cost was crazy too.

Leo.

Mark made a boat load of cash. I remember his car collection was bad ass

He never left. :2 cents::1orglaugh

Your right, I read the title and missed the exit part.

ARS was the first program I made money on, and Mark made one of the BEST games of the 00's.... Savage!

I don't understand why Savage 2 was a flop, the original Savage was such a fun game.

His traffic jam queue photo on his yard was crazy. Classic.

I received (as did most here on GFY) one of his first games for S2 gaming. I looked him up the other day, he grew that gaming business pretty well, too.

Didn’t they both lose it all? Who ended up in jail? The Aussie porn maffia. Those guys were crazy

If we're talking affiliates, there were two massive SE spams in the early 2000s that would have made their owners millions.

First one, the fingerprints indicated it was done by someone who owned a fairly modest link list called hornyalien.com. He was using cloaked doorways pages and on the surfer versions he'd have one of those graphical full page ads that affiliate programs used to provide, and a multi niche "money bar" on the bottom, which was very progressive for the time. From memory it was the first big spam using thousands of interlinked .biz & .info domains, which had just come out and were treated differently from regular CNOs. He took over the serps for weeks.

Second one was also cloaked spam, and he sent all his traffic to Nastydollars which was fairly new at the time and must have converted like absolute crazy with the new style tours. It was by far the biggest and most comprehensive SE spam in history, ever. It didn't matter what you searched for, there were just pages and pages of his domains. He literally took every single adult hit available from Google, shutting out every other site, and spilled into the mainstream serps as well, for at least 6 weeks. We're talking at least hundreds of millions and probably billions of hits of golden 2000s search traffic. Converting at 1:500 back in those days. Research at the time indicated he managed to get about 6 billion pages in the index.

Hats off to those great SEOs, true inspirations.

Well... according to the pleas they did to the courts they lost everything, I think Dean did ok he'd disenfranchised from the other two fairly early on and went on to bigger and better things.

I always followed one golden rule.. never do business with Queensland based Aussies, however like a fool I broke that rule once.. and got fucking burned badly from it... idiot.

Math was simple back then. 1 server = 256 IP's

1 server with 256 dropped domains PR5-6 or more
Use that to juice 4 other 256 domain servers, 3 adult and 1 casino
Auto generated pages on the lot.

Greg hit me up in 2009 or 10 and wanted to partner with me on some project.

I’m glad I passed on it 😂 never trusted either of those guys.

For the win

The original Mansef guys?

Fabian?

;)

He made what? 300m on the buy out or something like that plus all the money he made while running it. Not bad for a few years work.

Didn’t he get fucked for German taxes?

I was one of those and we didn't make as much as you claim.

SEO traffic converts at 1:5 to 1:50 max (when searching for specific sites).

At one point I owned many of the porn domain names SEO traffic. ie, milfhunter, bignaturals, etc... Was a nice income while it lasted. Trademark issues closed that up rather quickly.

I also did pills and poker. Both converted nicely. Until the USA made it all go away.
