Is the game a game I can play?
 

About last week I decided to pull the trigger on an idea which has been floating around my head for the past several years, which is to create a TGP. I've built normal everyday websites, but this would be my first venture into the adult industry, besides being a porn addict.

I don't have a harem of slutty chicks to get in front of a camera, so TGP is appealing to me since it promotes other people's content. But before I invest my time, effort, and money, I want to make sure I'm not barking up the wrong tree. Assuming that I can put in enough time and effort, is TGP a game that an outsider can successfully play or is it basically reserved for players who are already established in the adult business? I'm sensing a barrier of entry.

From what I understand, to play TGP you create some galleries and then submit them to TGP sites. But to create those galleries, do you need original pictures of your own? I'm confused by the term "free site," as the only "free" sites I'm aware of are TGP (or text, like Freeones) and the rest have paid memberships. If I need my own original pictures to play the game, I guess I'm out of luck.

No, not really

dude, gallery posting - that's what it's called, when you are making the galleries, as opposed to running a TGP, which is a website that posts links to galleries made by gallery posters - is a business model in decline.

but, almost all of the small business models in adult are in decline.

Anyway, typically a gallery poster either buys content from a content supplier (less common these days, tho it used to be the way everybody did it), or gets content from a sponsor.

it's a hard time to be trying to enter the biz.
