How long do you think it took for sex.com to make back that $13mil?
I really don't care about this subject at all. LOL

It has nothing to do with profit.

If sex.com makes profit on a month to month basis, then they are profitable.

I matters not how much money they initially invested into it.

That's his point. How long it takes them to recoup the initial investment has no bearing on their profit. It's accounting 101 and you don't seem to understand the basics.

Well that's why I have a high priced accountant. LOL
The only thing I really know anything about is sex, drugs and rock and roll!

interesting bump..

The sordid history of that domain could make an interesting documentary.

Domain names are sure expensive-- aren't they?

Sex.com theft level between 1-10 - give it a theft level score :warning

someone from sex.com here? I am DMCA for many of my movies and gifs there stolen

50?.....

2 pages :mad:

I'll sell interracialsex.com for 1m, today only! :)

Crazy love . . .

The user-generated content-based site is a thing, OP is f**king dumb.

OP probably meant 400 million Mexican Pesos, which would be about $20 million. While it's still not accurate, it's a lot closer to 13 million US Dollars than 400 million US Dollars. The Porn Nerd is too gullible and should have known better than taking OP's post at face value. Anyone have a bridge to sell him?

It's easy to get a picture of what it makes. Take the US and EU traffic per day estimate the CTR on ads, the price they're paid for clicks and a rough guess can be made. Of course you have to deduct the costs, servers, staff, location, etc.

Which illustrates the falling value of this industry, prices would be increasing for domains if we made more money. They are in fact falling dramatically.

Not for many many years

Made a fortune in the early days when type ins were premium

Paul, I love you like a crazy uncle at Thanksgiving complaining that things have never been they same since the railroaded Nixon, BUT

The industry is not dropping in value, the old methods of making money are disappearing.

User generated = Mostly stolen....

thieves rule the Internet :2 cents:

I have a vague memory of that domain being stolen via the registry. Emails were posted and letters, too. A lawsuit against the thief eventually got the domain returned. I read it all here so if you search back to the mid-nineties I think you’ll find it.

I thought it was sold back then for one million dollars which was obscene to most people.

rich people are cheap

What do you base that on?

it made around 2.5 million per year before it was changed to this look.

the site now IS probably profitable but could make much more if they would not try to selfmarket it.

400m 😂😂😂😂😂😂
