RE:"but will the Ultra program of AdultVerifier survive the AVS shakeup?" I hope so, I have several sites with them, but you can never be certain about anything. However the alternative is to do nothing, and just do a 9-5 for the man (& even then you cannot be secure as I have found a couple of times in the past).
Myself I work on the "never put all your eggs in one basket" principle, I have free sites, AVS sites (with several different AVS companies), a pay site, token sites, a content store, a webmaster site, and even some non-porn sites, plus I do a lot of TGP posting. If one dies on it's ass or even if several die on their asses, I have fall backs, and in case my pay site and all my AVS sites die at once I also push other people's sites.
And I don't just run this "spread" rule to business ideas, but also on sources. If you look at my WM site you will see that I speak highly of my host, although I do get a percentage of sales I push at them I do genuinely mean it when I say they are the best I have ever tried, but if you track down all my sites you will find that they are only one of five hosts I use. The other four are inferior, but I stay with them suffering a poorer service and paying more money because there is always the possibility that my main host will go tits up, however good they are, so I keep back ups.
It is the only way to go, if you avoid doing something because of the risks you will miss out your one big chance, but if it is the only thing you do then you risk ending up with nothing.
My philosophy is work hard, sleep little. As someone famous once said "I'll sleep plenty when I'm dead".
