Disclaimer: I am signing up for this for a project of mine. I like this concept.

However, the operative phrase is "smart webmaster".

I say this only as a heads up:
Cheryl is quite the sales person. She has the ability to put the right disclaimers in just the right spots in every post. This is not a bad thing or to say what Cheryl is posting is wrong. Just that, if your a webmaster, I'd read the fine print and understand completely what your doing before you start applying this concept in some of the ways that have been suggested.

I've read serveral posts on here and other boards about this concept. Considering the various ways that this concept can be applied, I think a trip to a copyright lawyer would be money well spent.


On another note,

In a perfect world, there are a couple of kinks in the scenario where the surfer pays to see links. If, and this is a big if, the link list or tgp requires payment from the webmaster to get listed AND the link list or tgp requires payment from the surfer, then I want to get paid also.

Imagine this, I pay for my hosting, I paid for the content, I spent my time developing/creating the listing and I get nothing? I think this is a wrinkle that woud need to be worked out.

Even if I didnt have to pay the listing, if someone is making money off my work, I want a piece of the action.

Getting free porn off the net is a very very good idea. Getting the surfer to pay, even for the right to see the links is a good idea. I think this should be the topic on every board for next two or three weeks so smarter people than me can come up with ways that everybody can make money off the idea of charging the surfer to see links.

(sending cc holding surfers might make a difference.) .... Cheryl

I like that phrase "might make", I think this reasoning was tried with AVS sites. Not as many people made money as was expected. Caveat: I know I know, lots of people made, and are making, really good money.

P.S. Cheryl, if you ever need a job, look me up, your really good
