Hi guys.

I am interested in setting up some affiliate material. My questions are:

1. How much shall I spend to get started?
2. Is it worth it after all?
3. Where to get started?
4. Any friendly tips? Very Happy

I am ready to invest of course and have a very good web designer who can come up with something really nice.

Thanks Wink

Yes, you can do it, but it takes allot more work and money than most people think. I have the connections here, and in Russia. But, the question is, are you really ready for the tab? Are you ready to put i the ammount of time, and work to make this happen, and really make it a sucess. This will be more than a full time job! Here is the answer I gave some one else here in this forum.

I have already looked into this. I speak read and write Russian fluently, but am 100% American. I actualy traveled there to meet some friends in the business. It is some what cheaper there than here to do this work, but not as cheap as you may think.
I can tell you that there are many people all over the world trying to break into the business. I have a friend in the business down in LA that receives hundreds of movies and photos per year of people with poor to well made stuff hoping to find an outlet to market their material.
The magazines are dead. There is no money to be made there. Selling your video with no big name behind you is almost impossible. The only way is to have your own site, and promote the heck out of it.
To have your own site, you need $$$ to get enough material, and the right kind of it..... then to build a first class web site. Then you must market it all the time..... and hope you make it, and some one likes your stuff. You must constantly add new material, or you loose customers as fast as you get them.
I would say about $300,000 to begin would be a good number. With out this, you are nothing. Look at ATK and many others. They have Millions invested.
Teen Funs was the best in my opinion for the < << CENSORED >> > looking girls. No one had such perfect girls, taste in sceens and great photography, and the photos for it's time were pretty good resolution. The ease of finding the girls once in the site, navigating around, and so much more were done very well. The people who put this orginazation togeather were quite frankly...... some of the best in the business! That is why I keep comming back to this forum. Hoping to see they have began a new site.
For some one to be able to produce the kind of site that Teen Funs was, will be extreemly tough. I really don't think we will ever see one again. You would not only have to have some really sharp minds, web designers, and photographers, but a couple of million dollars too. To get the quality of girls they had...... that ain't gonna be cheap any where, andy time.
