great investment. don't listen to the haters.

Good luck with the domain, let us know if you need any help (you've got Dave's email address).
I didn't read the whole thread, but a word of advice: You might want to reconsider the "50% profit" in addition to some of the other figures in your equation and projection.

pure comedy right??

he clearly doesn't have the maturity or simple common sense that would come from actually building a company and making 350k. i'm guessing he inherited money or his family bought it for him or something similar. his logical deductions as to why domain A will logically generate more revenue than domain B are quite funny.

sold the old cam stuff... but, i am very close to getting back into it in a very big way. have a few very good mainstream domains in development and ready to launch.

still married ... going on year 9 now.

how have you been? :)

50% profit? haha

so... how much traffic will that require? where will that traffic come from? assume girls you have only private 1 on 1 sessions and no other type of chat/business model and the girls need to be in private 20% of the time to be worth their time... how many users does that require? how much traffic would it require to get to that level where you have that many users?

you're very funny.

i'm still curious where you got 350k from. it might be hard to talk about... but seriously, which one of your parents died and left you the money? was it more than 350K or did you blow your whole inheritance on a single domain name?

i thought cams was 750k? lensman to lars

About 150,000 hits a day. In 10 years that is.

But cam traffic pays well, so 10,000 hits a day would pay for the domain
in a few months.

Awesome domain with great potential however it seems you know nothing about adult and did not do research prior. I guess 350k isn't that big of a deal to you? Either way, I'm sure you'll do fine with it. If you don't need to make money back instantly you have time to learn.

I've read this whole thread and all I can say is that you are heavily delusional

I don't even think you realize what your profit margin will be once you are open...
Your profit will be.. at most, 17ish% percent.. 20% will be pushing it... 10% is more realistic..

by the time you've paid for bandwidth, girls, affiliates, hosting, tech support people 24/7... not to mention the initial big ass investment of getting started..

those calculations are under the assumption that EVERY cam girl you would have is busy with a viewer 24/7/365.. That's where your calculations are flawed. Sure, you can have 100 cam girls, but how much traffic does the site get? Do you think any cam girls will stick around if they get 1 or 2 viewers every few days?

Also, who's to say that the traffic that you do get will actually spend money? What if you only get 2000 uniques per day and out of that only 10 actually spend money? You would have to work your ass off to grow the traffic and drastically increase your member base in order to make it worth it for everyone involved.

Than you have your expenses, hosting, design etc.. etc.. There are many factors here. It's not just a simple XX + XX * XX = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX calculation.

The key here is hard work.

good luck ..

It's OK...I know you're just playing...so am I :) I just drop it into the threads because it makes me laugh to do it...I know it's no camgirls.com :winkwink:

It's only down temporarily, I'm re-working what I'm doing with it, wasn't happy with its performance under its previous incarnation.

The price would be the best reasonable offer :winkwink:

wow, this guy is retarded LOL

I doubt he will start out with a 1:200 revshare spending ratio. More like he will be lucky if 3-4 people spend money out of 2000.

Wow, this guy is clueless.

I wish you good luck though. I'm sure you'll learn a lot about the business and eventually succeed in a couple of years.

Do you think the traffic to camgirlslive.com is type-in traffic? Where do you think it came from and how much do you think it costs? Where are your estimates for traffic expenses? What's your marketing plan? Have you even tested what you're doing with the site now to ensure the best ROI from your current traffic? Have you considered building something on your site instead of redirecting the traffic to start working on your search engine rankings? Why are you wasting your time posting on boards when you don't yet have a product to sell to anyone?

Agreed its in the top of cam domains - however $50K is that enough to get it going? I know we are sitting on one of the other top cam domains out there, and its has not been money holding us back, but rather not ending up spending money on "another cam site" in the ocean of cam sites :)

This thread is just too funny, really.

That cam_girls guy is just hilarious. He can't be for real.

I'm confused by your post, my example said spend 50k on the name and the other 300k on getting it going. I think you could get something going with 50k, but that will probably run out soon. So if I hear you correctly, you've invested in a premium cam domain but aren't sure you want to proceed with development because the current market is saturated? Any chance you'd want to tell us your domain, is it webcam.com ? Is your domain strictly adult cam related or could it go mainstream, I have some ideas how you could develop it without entering the saturated adult pay per min market.

you should look into teaming up with a guy named jon clark. togther you could revolutionize the cam world.

jc + lc + cg = gold

Its idiotic to throw that out there, there's too many variables. I've seen you say a few times that "cam traffic pays well". I know affiliates who send 10k hits a day and only make $100-$200/day. Cam traffic is just like other adult traffic, there's good and bad. The majority of cam traffic will be looky loos, those that are just on the site to browse the cams and eat up the bandwidth without paying a dime.

Sorry, I made a mistake... you are correct, makes alot more sense with $300k on traffic :)

Here's an earlier thread that will also make your jaw drop.

Not webcam.com, and its strictly adult... better just watch how this thread plays out, before driving away attention :1orglaugh But feel free to hit me up, if anyone who wish to talk more cam sex opportunities :winkwink:

This thread is LOLtastic!! :thumbsup

I've rubbed your guys faces in it too long HAHA, didn't know I'd snag so many suckers.

We'll see in 12 months who's earning more, all your $30 per month memberships or
my $5 a minute at CAMGIRLS.

I can't wait to grab it on snapnames for $800 in a year when you can't afford to re-register it and it expires.

I'll be sure to bump this thread in a year when your domain will be still forwarded to another cam site and not your own. Oh, and out of that $5 min, you'll be profiting only about 50 cents.

That's after a year or two of promo, if you know what you're doing...

I find it hard to believe somebody would shell out $350k on a domain without a definite game plan regardless of how the postings are coming over.

How do we know the guy posting as cam_girls is the actual owner btw?

I'll sell you a site that sends 3000 hits to cam site per day. Only $100k. Your traffic problem is solved :)

Do you give every new poster the "don't even try to make an adult website,
it's just too hard" treatment?

For such a tough industry I've never seen a bigger crowd of pussies.

The only companies advertising here are cam sites, that should be a clue, you
naysayers have blinkers on, live sex is the future. And the monopolies (olygopolies)
will be the new telecom giants. Video conferencing will be 90% camgirls, what else?

Unless teleco see how's big the industry is and install video phones into every home,
but that's 50 years away.

xedoc didn't buy the name, that tell's it all

you are a fucking idiot man - people are responding to the shit you are dribbling and fuck me you are dribbling a lot of it :1orglaugh

Millions in the making :)

You talk a lot but you can't actually refute anything I say.

Yea..... I wish it were though :(
