How Much Do You Spend Per Month on Advertising?
 

1k? 5k? 10k? 50k? 100k? or more. Thanks for the feedback. :)

I heard some are around 2M :thumbsup

~$4,000...

250-300k....is this too much??....by the way...it is wonderful thread....I never had a thought like that.......good day.....

well, $25 last week... pretty impressive huh?

That question can answer itself.

If any of you guys need adult or mainstream ads (mainstream is killing it now) let me know.

I haven't done a lot of ads until now. I'm starting to ramp that up a little. Looking at some banner spots of $200 and $500 per month. I also do a little adwords here and there, but only a couple hundred a year.

In adult?

Nothing, ZERO...

In the old days I used to invest 5000 dollars per month buying spots or gallery listings that generated me 20,000 per month earnings... but nowadays it makes no sense, it will only make you lose money.

Unless you have a specific amount of money that you can afford to WASTE.

There is no place in adult TODAY where you have the quarantee to spend 1K in listings or ads, and make some decent money out of it, and make a profit...

In the past you had the quarantee to buy a 1K ad and get at least 3K at worst of profit...

Nowadays, FOR EXAMPLE, you can buy a 1K listing and then maybe make 100 bucks out of it.

PIRIOD.

around 1-2mm

about $3-4k a month and growing

you can't be serious.............:Oh crap

who wants to teach me some ad tactics? I am talking converting cams with ads and make a profit...

I am willing to pay for a good teacher (who can tell me more than the standard BS, so looking for insides, examples, result)

So many marketing geniuses

If you had any clue as to whatever the fuck it is you happen to be blathering about, you would not say something which sounds as stupid as 'mainstream' is really 'killing it' simply because it's generally only those who have ever worked in 'mainstream' who refer to mainstream as 'mainstream'. Make sense?

When you consider that adult sites make up ~12% of the internet, you might as well just say 'the internet is killing it' when referring to the other 88%. It's really not much less stupid to say 'mainstream is killing it'. And that's a mathematical fact.

Welcome back! :Oh crap:Oh crap:Oh crap:disgust:disgust:disgust:Oh crap:Oh crap:Oh crap

LOL...go flip burgers son.

We haven't spent $1 in 4 years. True story. Oddly enough, sick retention, a solid brand, quality content and great customer service does that. :thumbsup

True Story :2 cents:

You don't have an ID?

It's fairly easy to get a passport at a place called It's Easy on 41st and Lex and doing so requires less 'points' than what you would need for a NY State ID.

Oh, and also be sure to get the passport card as it's more convenient to use as ID on a day-to-day basis.

You just can't use it for international travel side from Canada/Mexico.

WHY?..

TELL ME, im all ears...

but tell me, ok?... Im waiting.

True dat... what's your view and opinion on CAMS+DATING?

since you seem to be of the OLD SCHOOL PAYSITE group, like me, I want to know your opinion about all this FAKE BUZZ in this board saying that they only make money with cams now and that paysites dont convert for them.

HAHA.. good one! :1orglaugh

The only ads I buy are on mainstream, I agree...

In mainstream I invested 1K in ADS and make 3-4 times that back in first month.

And im not talking about shitty adwords or shitty facebook ads, that dont make shit at all.

Just sayin...

Wouldn't a better question be what percentage of sales are spent?

.

I agree that would be a much better question.

Then quit wasting your time on this board trying to figure out how to make money and go to a mainstream board since you're so good at it. People have already told you how to make money.

I open my wallet and the money comes out

Well, I have never had success with cams or dating, however I don't know much about them and have never had a passion to succeed with them. Therefore I won't dismiss what I am ignorant about. I think many people have great success with both of them.

However I also think you can have great success with pay-sites. The logic is simple, yes you can get great quality pirated content and yes you can use tubes. But if the $30 doesn't mean too much for you (and it doesn't to a great many) you just search, find and buy what you want, good quality, no bs, easy POS, refreshes often.

That system won't go away. Great, easily accessible content will live on, as will tubes, as will pirate sites, as will cams and dating.

I think the industry as a whole has gone through a great purge and is becoming a maturing business. 2002 won't come back, this is true of the first many years of any fast growth biz. It doesn't mean it's not a valid model. :thumbsup

Makes sense.

FYI - The Karma Treasures link in your sig leads to a page that says "This offer is unavailable". Thought it would be worth checking out for a music related project I just started yesterday. If you have a new ref link for that or anything else which could ostensibly do well on a music site, feel free to send them my way - jimmycooper [at] starletsheet [dot] com

Excellent post. :thumbsup

bullshit!

I spend around $0.50 per customer on advertising each customer gets me average $3.60.

You are full of SHIT, since you are selling ADS in your SIG..

Of course you want clients for your WORTHLESS TRAFFIC.

Make it less obvious next time. IDIOT.

Nice ROI, i hope you can scale up this to the sky?

When i have the cash i buy as much as i can basicly everything i earn i put back in to it.

dont get FOOLED... come on guys, you cant be this NAIVE.

That BROKEN guy SELLS TRAFFIC in his SIG, he basically want people to buy that...

Most of you are still so NAIVE... You cant be this basic and obvious.

$0.00 month to date
