Yes, you are offering a service but you are profiting from that service. You are able to profit from that service so don't try to tell me how hard it is to convert that traffic.

I do own my own sites, my own domains and pay for my own hosting. I do know how difficult it is to generate and convert traffic.

I'm just looking for some truth in advertising like I'll host your blog but I get 10% of the traffic for whatever I want. Or I don't want your money, I want your sweat.

Why not explain how someone who uses your service could lose everything they've worked to build because you decide you want out of the business, or to sell the domain or any other business decision you may make about YOUR site.

How many people lost years of work when blogger stopped allowing adult? How much money did people lose when thumbblogger was hacked?

Your service may not cost any out of pocket cash but it is a long way from being FREE.

First off, if anyone is using my service as the only way to TRY and make money in porn that is mistake number one.

Secondly, it's good that you own your own domains and pay for your own hosting, so why do you attack me for running my own site and doing my own thing. Do you get some sort of gratification out of attacking someone on a forum.

As far as advertising goes I have a very simple text link at the top of my site and at best I might get 10 hits on them a day. People do not go to porn sites to read the text at the top of the blog. Most people don't even see the link. People go to porn sites to look at pictures not read links.

Don't look now dude but every site you link to on your sites is stealing your traffic and you linked to them voluntarily. You think just because you get these visitors to your site they are going to stay on your site and generate you sales? I think not.

As far as my business decisions go, I know that there are people who use my service and much of what I decide to do takes them into account, so don't talk to me about MY business. I don't provide this service with any warranty or guaranty so anyone who uses it does so at their own risk. What I do expect is people to have the common decency to leave me alone about my site if they don't like it, or just not use it would be ok by me. I don't come to your job and throw rocks at you. All I want to do is make a service that other people can use. If you are so concerned about the people loosing everything they have done on my site go register www.donotusetriplexblogs.com and warn them that you have taken on the responsibility of getting the word out about using so called FREE blog services. Do the world a favor. (I've checked, the domain is available.)

When it comes to other services out there I don't care, I am not those services. All I want to do is make a service that other people can use. Blogger was never meant to have porn on it and as far as getting hacked goes...no one is immune to that.

If what you want to read me type is that my service is not provided free, your going to have a long wait. Any response you have to this is just going to be ignored so if you do respond it, your response will just be pandering to the public because I'm done with this I have better things to do.
