There is so much traffic out there that it is better to share it. If i cant make the sale i'll pass the surfer to you so you can try, and vice versa.
I've only been building sites for 5 months now so i still have a lot to learn. Getting traffic in adult is almost too easy (not that i have made a big commitment to it yet)
pm's being sent to those that responded so far.

Good points!
Since we run both mainstream and adult programs, I had to miss Cybernet to attend an 'expo' in Vegas for mainstream... I sooooo would've rather been at Cybernet for the exact reason you mentioned. At the mainstream expo, people seemed to network with more of a "What Can You Do For ME?" or "What Can I Sell to YOU" attitude as opposed to the attitude I find at adult shows which seems to be "How can we make money TOGETHER".
Mainstream marketing seems to be very lonely and disjointed. imho, anyway. lol
