What else are you doing?

mark6188 · 2009-12-02, 08:16 PM

So I'm planning out my next steps for December. I have a few open threads here and there to get some feedback. I greatly appreciate all the help I'm getting.

My early threads were questions on tgp and LL submits. Many times an established forum member would start their answer with something like "Well, I don't do submits..." or "I haven't done tgp in a while..." or "Tgp and LL are a waste of time..." etc...

So if established members are not doing submits, then what are they doing to make money in the online adult business? Besides blogs (which I'm trying to make time for), I really can only think of a few things.

Buying traffic like ppc or cpm from adult traffic companies or google, leasing content and selling their own memberships, or maybe producing and selling content.

I'm still working my plan A with submits, plan B for blogs, then maybe plan C for tgp/LL site of my own. But these are all very finite plans and interconnected.

I really would like to know what you're doing in addition to, if not exclusive of the above?

Thanks.

I submit galleries everyday, 7 days a week. its the first thing on my to do list each morning. Since it is my main source of income, its the first thing on my to do list each morning.

After that I run TengaCash.com.

Then after that I look for more feeds and update my blog network.

Then I work on non porn stuff like adwords, and other seo stuff, just so I can keep some eggs in another basket.

If there is any time left in my day, I like to prepare for the next day.

Thats pretty much "a day in life" for me.

Thanks, Terry!

And that tenga device...gotta get me one of those! I'm definitely going to promote that once I get a feel for it, lol. I know where some of my profits are going.

I keep forgetting about adult products. I got so into membership stuff, just didn't see anything else.

I would suggest subscribing to AVN and XBIZ. Not only will you find a wealth of information, but you'll see lots of sponsor ads and get a better feel of how to make money in the different areas of the adult business.

@infoguy

Thanks for pointing those sites out to me. I've run across them before, but never got around to going through them. I've been pretty much hanging around the forums for all my info. The "authority" sites are a little intimidating. Still, I really need a bigger picture of what's going on. It's hard to see anything when you're in the "forest", these sites give a little higher perspective so I can see where I'm going.
