The Summer Slowdown is Over
Written By Titmowse
Hooray kids! That real/not real time referred to in the adult webmaster world as the SUMMER SLOWDOWN is almost over! The horny college boys are packing up their laptops, slipping their brand-new credit cards into their wallets and heading off to college where there's no parents and free Internet connections for everyone!
Whether or not you believe there is such a thing as a slow down in online porn memberships during the months of June-Aug, or that male American College students are the backbone of our business doesn't matter. That summer break interval is winding to a close and there's no better time than now to clean house, realign your mind and get down to some serious selling.
I've been looking around at the offerings of the sponsors, content providers, hosting companies and various adult webmaster-related services. Let me tell you, it just keeps getting better and better for the beginner online porn mogul.
Yes, it's true. There is an overabundance of sex webmasters. There is an overabundance free adult content flowing through modem and broadband connections. There are kajillions of gallery makers, AVS designers and dialer-pushing pimps all competing with you for the almighty dollar. The adult Internet is more competitive and more populous with competitors than it's ever been. The smut pushing newbie has to dance faster, shine brighter and think smarter to get ahead.
In spite of that, the newbie adult webmaster has never had more opportunities to get things rolling than they do today:
Hosting
Face it. If you're a new adult webmaster, then you probably don't have enough traffic to warrant leasing or buying your own server. You have modest needs and nothing is more modest than the flat, starter packages offered by adult payd hosting companies. You could have a site on the net, on your own domain for less per month than you spend on a night's entertainment.
If you're a super-broke newbie adult webmaster then there are tons of free hosts for you. Naysayers have been predicting the demise of the free adult host for at least three years now. Predict as they might, free adult hosts are still in operation and waiting for you to open an account. Look around and you'll even find one or two bannerless free hosts. If you've not put a site on the adult web yet, you've got no excuse to wait when it comes to hosting!
Content
Content is king and there's plenty to go around! You can download tons of images and video clips for practically little or no money. Whatever kind of content you need, you can find it from a reliable, licensed provider. From straight to gay, from hardcore to softcore, from fetish to niche, whatever content you imagine, someone has it for sale. There's cartoons, games, pre-edited magazines, plug-in adult toy stores and more just for the buying. On top of that, there are more and more free content sources becoming available each day. For simple link trades, you can get images, pre-made galleries and video clips galore! Surfers love fresh content and today's providers are pumping it out like water!
Sponsor Programs
Adult affiliate sponsors are rewarding their webmasters with amazing benefits these days. Sponsors need you and they are competing for you with each other in truly beneficial ways. Many have multiple payout programs for their affiliates which means you can by sell clicks, memberships, dialers and even through referrals to other webmasters. Sponsors are offering awesome incentive programs to their productive affiliates. Some give you free goods with points you acquire from selling, others treat you to higher payouts when you peddle well. You will also find that adult affiliate sponsors are working overtime to try to bring you promotional tools such as full page ads, web space for galleries and AVS pages, free content galore and site building wizards. Adult sponsors are striving to give you the easiest, no-hassle way to free your time so you can sell, sell, sell!
The summer slowdown -true or not- is almost over! Rejoice little Cozies! Shake off the doldrums and get to cracking! Now is the time to get going! Read your Cozy Academy lessons. Go find a host. Go get some content. Get you a sponsor and start selling!
