Honestly SBM...it 'may' have to do with your incessant quest for free hosting. See, most of the folks here are quite serious about their business and probably don't want to waste resources (time), submitting to a site that very likely will either be unstable or not last.

I know you're new, but as was discussed in your other thread...free hosting is a recipe for disaster. Either your site will be down frequently...or redirected...or worse...or, you'll simply get tired of your hobby and pull the site entirely. All of which result in a waste of time and effort for those that have submitted to your site. The words you were getting in the other thread were voices of experience...not just trying to trash your idea.

If you really want submissions...and you really want to make a go of your site, you're going to need to get a bit more serious about it...that includes a real paid host...among other things. Of course, I could be wrong about all this...it is after all...jmho

There are some sites I've seen hosted on free hosts that have been around for years, nothing is etched in stone.
And I do plane on geting a domain name in time so even if I change hosts people will find my site.

I'm sure you folks mean well, though it does seem like a class issue, the same terms are used, trust me on this one, I grew up kinda a snob(until I grew up moved out and my parents money did not come along with me), A paid host would be great but what happens if I dont get a following right off the bat? I hate spending hard earned money and not getting a return, it has a way of turning the focus from providing a niche i believe in into doing what it takes to make money, and I dont want money to be the focus, I want trading REAL amateur Exotics to be the focus.

I take no offence, all have their opinion and mine is not etched in stone, time changes all things, but I am a man of princable, I dont like getting ripped off, and i would hate to pay for the best hosting I can find only to find 2 months later someone else offering a better deal.
so every move I make I plan for evry thing.

and now for a little tail.

Well back in 96 I had a free site at eros village, it was based on latinaz, I took most of the photos myself (i was a bouncer at a strip club at the time) and I got abit of a following, my chatroom was always full and my message board was always buzzin.
after awhile I got my own domain and linked it to my old free site, I still posted on my free site even after I had the paysite up and running the only diff was my paysite had around 100 pics per gallery while do to space restrictions I only had 10 pics per gallery on my free site.
Well just counting profit I was making close to 5 grand a month within 4 months.
And it all started from message boards like the one at redsnake dot com, whitch was a hangout for guys who spent their weekends driving to tijuana & juarez, now not all of that was from memberships, alot of it was from affiliate but I did it once.
Infact I did not go under I just closed it down do to divorce I did not want it factored into my child/spousal support.

And how did it start?
Well I told a few people in the alt.prostitution.tijuana newsgroup and they told everyone who would listen.
now what I told them about was the free site cause thats all that I back then but it gave me a following and a ready made userbase for when I started my paysite.

Let me bottom line it. If you're not committed enough to your project to risk $10 to $20 a month for paid hosting, then why should you be taken seriously by people who do this for a living?

It is a shame that there arent many people who do this because they like doing it, meaning porn first money and if I make money cool.

I did the same thing back in 96 that I am trying to do now and it worked very well but I think its mostly because I had a passion for what I did, infact I only expected( and was happy with) to make enough to pay for the host, but I ended up making much more, and thats because I did it in steps and each step being a safety net for the next.
This is for enjoyment both for me and the visiters to my sites.
You might not understand that but it is the way I feel.

PS: I'm not attacking anyone, I'm just giving my P.O.V .

I don't know anyone doing this for fun. All the people I know who work in porn do it for the money. You might find someone on another board?

It's not 1996 anymore. I wish it were, this biz was alot simpler then.

The places listed below are where i used to go to get the REAL stuff, not the paid models, and pro-am crap thats all there is today, but even in my old hangouts there is nothing but spam. People just out to make a buck, I often wonder what happened to all those people who used to do this for fun.

alt.sex.prostitution.tijuana
alt.culture.fil-am.relationships
alt.binaries.pictures.erotica.latina
alt.binaries.pictures.erotica.asian-indian

I agree, it seems this biz changed and not for the better.
infact we spend alot of time fighting amongt ourselves in the arena of self intrest, when money is the main focus the visitor gets screwed.
I am not alone in my opinion, many people I have talked to say there is no good amateur porn out there .
Now part of it may be the fact that many women know the web is out there, so its harder to get a girlfriend to pose for you(which is why most REAL amateur stuff looks like it was taken in the 80's).
Heck 15 years ago if a woman posed for pics by her boyfriend the worst that could happen was 5-10 of his buddies will see the pics, but now he can show it to 50 million people.
I just want to have fun view good REAL amateur exotics and share with those who like the same thing.

Actually, I do understand what you're saying SBM...but as Toby mentioned...the times have indeed changed. Not sure I would agree with your assertion that the changes aren't for the better. Like most things, some of the changes are certainly worse...but there are some upsides too.

A lot of the changes to your niche of love...'true amateurs' can be attributed to the govt. The kind of things that you made your hit on all those years ago...you most likely couldn't legally get away with these days. Or, at the very least...you'd have a lot of legal exposure.

Let's face it...the adult business IS a business...and it's still maturing. It HAD to get tighter in some ways...that's the nature of things.

Myself, I got into this business because I do enjoy it...I enjoy the work...I enjoy the people...I really enjoy the FREEDOM this business offers me. And I work my freakin ass of to achieve, nuture and grow those things. Today's online adult world is no easy road...by a long shot.

All that said, yea...I still like looking at hot girls. I do love da ladies

But, the money helps too!

Of course, you can try what worked for you in 96...that's your call. We're just trying to give you the insights of what works today.

[sbm4latinaz]

and believe it or not I actually listen to your insights, I weigh them with past success and failings, my beliefs, and try to come up with what works for me.
Who knows, one of you might come up with something I have never thought of, that would work for me.
hell, it could be a combo of many ideas that i put together from many sources.

And yah its a shame that we all suffer because some bitches got mad because they regognised there panties online. I never was into that but they shouldnt make us all pay for the actions of a few.
