I always considered "webmaster" to be the operator of a website.

"I'm the webmaster of xxxxxxxx" Meaning I'm the operator of the xxxxxxx website.
"Contact the webmaster of xxxxxxxx" Contact the person who is running xxxxxxxx.
"I need a webmaster" I need someone to run a website.

So an Adult Webmaster was seemingly just someone who ran adult industry website(s).

I always found it amusing how many webmasters promoting the amateur niche would spell it incorrectly.

Let me see if my assistant wants to come, I don't feel like going solo.

So did my brother D$-
So much in fact that once owned Busty-Amatuers.com

It was so funny... my bro would laugh his way all the way to the bank with his $20,000 a month + checks he'd make on his referrals.

That lasted about 5 years or so...until it all went south.

Airek can verify this 100%

i think "adult webmaster" and "webmaster" (for those in mainstream) is an out-dated term that goes along the same lines as "baud", web 1.0, and 8 sided dice.

It takes many different skill sets to run/operate a website. Granted, all of this can exist in one person (As well as using things like blogs, themes, managed vhosts, etc), if that is the case, then i believe "webmaster" is the right term (though still dated).

probably back in the days around 1994, when the first websites started popping up, the geek who understood html and http ran the website and as businesses started to experiment with this digital realm, it was the one person who ran the show, (i should know, i was that one person for early websites back then).

Today, it takes these skill sets:

- web designer for the graphical interface
- web developer for programming
- sysadmin for technical webserver operations
- traffic/seo/marketing for traffic from SE to affiliate to buy
- financial/accounting
- customer service
- product development
- business development
- etc


i think anyone who calls themselves an "adult webmaster" is essentially a one-man show.

those that have people who work for them that do the different skill sets, i would say is a "Web entrepreneur".


Fight the webmaster is dead, long live the webmaster!
