My MILF Porn Blog Results So Far ...

People are always curious about the results of others in this business. I am not shy so I thought I would share mine. I don't think they are amazing so please don't take any of this as bragging. In reailty, I simply don't think I am overly good at marketing porn!

First of all, the only site I run is my blog. It has been up since the end of August. So I've been in business 2 1/2 months. The focus of the blog is on the MILF, mature, housewife and single woman niches. These are the types of porn I like. I've decided that I will commit to the blog for 1 year, after which, I will evaluate it's success and at that point decided whether to continue or not.

I rely on trades, directory listings and mostly Google traffic to get people to my site. I have not yet built any freesites or the like. That will come soon. I do write a blog entry EVERYDAY without fail though I usually write them 2 days a week and post date them. I don't splog. I write a real entry that always features a gallery of some sort along with my ramblings. I spend about 5 hours a week writing the blog and then about the same amount of time upgrading, researching. getting trades, etc.

So, traffic ... I've had over 15,000 unique visitors of which 6,500 have come through this month. Most days now I get 400-500 people. 95% of the searches I get come from Google. My Alexa ranking started at 2 million+ but I am now down to close to 500,000. It took 2 months to go from PR 0 to PR 1 for whatever that is worth.

The search engine traffic in a blog is as good as they say. I featured a single woman site with her name liberally sprinkled in the text. Next thing you know I ranked high in Google for her name -- it was actually a slight misspelling -- and then I got two sign ups. When I've done galleries and freesites before I just never saw a good volume of targeted SE traffic. Sure I would get Google traffic but often with a freesite but it would take months to occur. With a blog you write about say a pornstar one day and a couple of days later you get SE traffic using those search terms. I think that is because with daily updates to my site, Google is visiting me about 18-20 times a day.

Having said that some of the traffic appears next to impossible to convert. There are two step-sisters "Rhylee and Rhyse Richardson" who are new to the business. Despite good SE ranking and mounds of traffic, I did not get a single sale from the three blog entries I made featuring them. I think that this may be a case of trying to make a sale of something [someone?] that is too popular.

Now the money, I've made 6 sales of which 1 has been PPS (Pay Per Signup) and 5 have been RevShare (Revenue Sharing). I prefer RevShare because I think over the longterm you can do better. The total revenue is just over $142 but that does not include about 2 bucks in PPC (Pay Per Click). Three of my sales have come from single women sites. These are what you might consider a little bit off the "beaten track" of the Internet.

I've been on and off doing some porn sites in the last couple of years but this is my first attempt where I've put in some real effort. I am hoping that the growth of the site continues to be exponential and not linear. If so, I might make some money in a while. I hope!

Those are my efforts. If anyone has any questions, I would be happy to answer them!

Regards,

P.S. Yet, another thought -- about RevShare. I personally knew a woman who was a porn chat host. She had a few regular customers who would come to her site. One guy, a single farmer from the mid-west would spend $500 a month on time with her. It went on for months and months. I know it sounds amazing but it is true. Well, imagine the RevShare from that commission alone vs. what you would get with PPS. I want a BIG FISH like that!
