OK this thread has certainly inspired me if nothing else. I started building my site first because I wanted to create something different something that I myself would enjoy. I get tired of looking for good sites and getting bombarded with BS. So that is what got me started. I wasn't seriously considering it as a business until I started visiting forums like this which have given me hope that eventually I will be able to make a living at this.
I have lyme disease and have been ill since July. I had to quit my job which has really hurt us. My hubby does construction which barely covers the bills and in the winter time it doesn't even cover them all. I have been doing some web design work for other people to help make ends meet but that is a lot of work for little pay and certainly no residual income. So I got to thinking maybe I should be building for myself but what to build then the idea for the adult site popped into my mind and well that's where I started. I just started though so I don't know if its going to work out but you all give me hope. If I could just make 400.00 a month with my site I would be happy because that would be close to what I was making at my part time job before I got sick and besides I really would rather work from home so that I can be here with my toddler. These years fly by so quickly and I don't want to miss a thing.
So thats my reasons.
