I've googled and searched the forum, so I apologize if this is already posted somewhere.
First of all, I'm in the US. I want to just set up a blog with affiliate links and pics.
Since it's not my content, do I need to worry much about 2257 compliance?
Also, I see a lot of similar blogs doing what I want to do. I'm wondering if I need a disclaimer or a static page to keep minors out?
From experience in other fields, I realize I probably can't jump on the bandwagon and promote teens or any other hugely saturated niche. I've settled on bondage/bdsm because there seems to be a demand for it but not as much competition, and I think I've got some creative promotional ideas. There aren't any laws that I'm aware of in the US against promoting this stuff, but I could be wrong.
Any help is greatly appreciated, and if I can answer any affiliate marketing related questions I'd be more than happy to.
Thanks,
-Scott

Re 2257 - just include a note in your footer stating the models are 2257 compliant, if you then are linking to galleries they should have the link to the where that info is stored.
As for keeping out build your blog though have a waring page as the index with the disclaimer then link to your blog home page.
BDSM is a great niche though one of the niches that is always facing new rulings and laws, billers are less likely to work with these sites. However for some reason Fem Dom (in the UK) is viewed as 'ok' where as Male Dom is way more risky. By all accounts ladies are less likely to go beat a bloke up after viewing such content.
A couple of good niches I have been tapping into are Japanese NOT asian & Indian - these are both well searched and people seem to stay loyal to the sites they join.
BTW if you are new my advice to you is get an Epassporte account and card
I have a question for you - you say you are from a mainstream background do you mind if I ask what you sold? I also sell product from my sites and would like to find more though its hard to find a decent trusted programme as most of the people I know sell memberships.
