Sex Talk with Sue - Let's Talk About Sex, Baby!

“Let’s talk about sex baby, Let’s talk about you and me
Let’s talk about all the good things, And the bad things that may be
Let’s talk about sex!”

Sex is BIG business - both for the promotions of and for the campaigns against. And it really doesn’t matter which ever side of the fence you live on; you are supported. A necessity of life, a solution for an occupation, and a recipe for disaster.

I have toyed with the concept of sex for financial gain, and even own Sexulations.com (now an AdSense site). But never made anything out of - up until now. Now I am constructing the first of several adult cam websites, My Asian Cam Girl, for a client I just secured. An eccentric gentleman, embarking into his later years (yet younger than me); ambitious, conservative, and resourceful. And I met with him again today. We talked about functions of the project as well as his ambition for a more comfortable life style. The details were intriguing, to say the least.

This could be the beginning of something big. And I’m not talking about the bulge in my pants. My infatuation is driven, but my chickens are not hatched, only fertilized.

In this business I’ve discovered that there are many little men with socks stuffed inside of their pants. And their wet dreams of grandeur illuminate my world - or so they groom this conception. But I will still collect my fee as I supply their product. To whatever extent of services they covet, I will always put forth every effort to satisfy my customer.

Satisfaction, gratification, and fulfillment - it’s a tall order for any Tom, Dick or Harry - for any Sally come lately - for any internet conception. Is it a reality? Can it be done? Will it appease our appetite? It can and it will, but only if our obsessions are under control.

10 things a web designer would never tell you

Don’t know just why I am sharing this, could it lead to my own downfall? So sad to see a fellow of the trade disclosing all our secrets! But like I said, don’t read this article unless you also read the comments - at least the first two.

Back in 1998 when I first discovered the internet, I met with several claims of people making a living through online profit programs. I did a bunch of research, but didn’t come up with anything to make a living at… could have been that I didn’t have cash to invest in some of these programs; just as well, I didn’t loose anything either.

Today I have noticed that people have a different attitude about internet profit, work-at-home programs. Today we have an economy that is limiting our conventional earning methods. Big companies are going out of business, laying off employees, and forcing workers to take a cut in pay. And our government hasn’t been helping us much lately, either. Security in the work force is vanishing, and people are searching for alternatives. This brings to the BIG question: “Which method, program, or route will lead us into successful endeavors?”

There are MANY methods, programs, and routes that have the possibility of helping us towards a better future, working online - at home. I’m including a list of the more lucrative of these here.

  1. Affiliate marketing: the marketing other people’s services and goods. This can be done through email marketing, by having links on your own website or blog, through posting at web communities and forums, as well as all types of off-line advertising.
  2. Selling ebooks: actually, this is just another form of affiliate marketing, but it takes on a different flavor. Marketers have come up with many creative ways to sell ebooks - get this one, Stacked Income, for $5.00! Popular methods include: offering OTO’s - one time offers, give-aways and low ticket bargains that lead to bigger ticket items, and ebook subscription clubs. The biggest referral outlet for ebooks is ClickBank. They make reselling goods easy for anyone who wants to be an affiliate.
  3. Selling and/or making web templates, scripts, and programmed applications: this is one of the most profitable, as once the goods or service is made/purchased, 100% profit is usually achieved. But still, some companies offer affiliate-style marketing. One such big template company is Template Monster. I own this membership site, My Template Package,  where you can get ALL of these for a ONE TIME PRICE of $24.95!
  4. Online auctions: this will remain be a popular alternative. Of course, the best place for this is at eBay. Seems that if you can come up with a product or service to sell, most likely it can be sold here.
  5. Online stores and shopping malls: very high competition niche, as this market is literally owned by such companies as: Amazon.com, PriceGrabber.com, BizRate, Smarter.com, RoboShopper, ConsumerClub.com, and hundreds more will like beat any deal you could offer. Many of these offer referral programs. WIth that, you may have a feasable opportunity.
  6. Niche products and information: once you get a website up for highly specialized goods, tutorials, programs, and/or services, an easy residual income can almost be guaranteed. The only maintenance for this is in advertising and keeping up to date.
  7. Pay-per-click: Google has definitely cornered the market here with the ever so popular AdSense. Although there have risen many others, none bring the results that AdSense does. For this, you’ll need to have a website or blog that has high traffic - at least 500 page views per day to make a few bucks.
  8. Domain flipping: this all depends upon buying and/or registering popular domains for a bargain, and then selling them to highly interested parties. There are two major forums on the internet that can enable you to easily run this type of program: Digital Point Forums and Sitepoint Forums.
  9. Buying and selling websites: similar to domain flipping - can easily be done using the same two forums.This is especially easy to do with high page ranking blogs, game sites, entertainment websites, or any website that has proven profits of $100 plus per month. Often you can find a desperate seller and realize a great bargain.
  10. Content writing: many people would rather pay for this service as most of them cannot write readable or interesting writings. From $1.00 to $5.00 per 100 words, people purchasing content for websites, blog posts, article submissions, ebooks, journals, technical instructions and facts, academic materials, cookbooks… the list is endless.
  11. Backlink acquisitions: this is one of the necessary things that websites and blogs need to acquire high search engine rankings from search companies - especially from Google and Yahoo!. A backlink is simply a link back to to your website. The most popular sites to get these from is website directories, forums (links inside of a member’s signature), blogs, and social web communities such as DIGG, Del.icio.us and Stumbleupon. Webmaster forums make the best place for advertising services with Digital Point Forums leading the pack.
  12. Selling computer skills: industries include website design, programming, search engine optimization, computer repair, computer forensics and security, website maintenance, and the instruction of these. A couple of websites for freelance jobs and services are Guru.com, Get a Freelancer, oDesk, and Elance.
  13. Forex trading: another way to earn money is with money, investing in different currencies. FOREX, which is Foreign Exchange, gives you the opportunity to earn money if you invest wisely in currency trading. But this needs a bit of practice as well as exceptional documentation.
  14. Online traffic builders: with the most common, being traffic exchanges, you can earn from 10% to 75% of your referral’s credit purchases. My favorite TE’s include Traffic Witch (earn 75%), I Love Hits, and Web Biz Insider. Not only can you earn with traffic exchanges, you also get visitors to your website, and can build a good downline. Other great traffic builders include LinkReferral, Free Traffic Bar, and safelists.
  15. Internet profit programs: from downline builders and internet marketing clubs to multi-level marketing and matrix’s, to high yield investment programs (HYIP’s) and autosurf advertising (the last 2 likely to be Ponzis), this area of earning alternatives can be expensive to start and are generally high risk alternatives. Most of these require a developed system obtained through research, study, and trial & error. I have seen and am involved is a few, one which required no out-of-pocket costs, Zero2Riches, which is gaining wide popularity. They also have a friendly web community.
  16. Online betting, lotteries and gambling: another high risk alternative requiring systems and strategies. Can easily lead to obsession and debt.
  17. Online surveys: this depends a lot on your living habits, shopping preferences, and consumer style. Profiles who fit the hiring company’s demographics can actually make some good cash.
  18. Pay per action:pay per click, pay per read (emails), pay per install (usually adware & malware), pay to play, pay per play, and pay to be online. Could be a big waste of time unless you’re in it for fun; your per-hour pay is usually null to non-significant.

Informative sites and blogs:

I think that about covers it all, and if this topic did not get saturated, at least my mind did. Likely I’ll be back to add to this post, so you best subscribe to this blog NOW (please).

digitalpoint.com logoGotta admit, I’m TOTALLY addicted to this web forum!!

Digital Point Forums is by far the best place to get free help and low prices for all webmaster needs. I just purchase a web directory for $40 BIN (buy it now). And it’s a PR1 with about 200 websites already listed. I had my eye on 2 others before I grabbed this one; probably best to start with a super low priced site. The other one was a smackin’ deal, too: a PR4 directory with 4,000 listings, AdSense, and a small revenue for $249 BIN. You can’t make a website for that let alone market it to be grow to this size!

Right now, as I write this post, I’m downloading 28,000 Wallpapers I purchased for seven bucks. Total file size is 2.84GB, downloaded from 3 800MB zip files.

And if you have a problem with coding, HTML, CSS, SEO, or anything related to webmastering, you’re likely to get help within the hour. They also feature a “Review Websites” spot where you can get members advice on your own website. All members have to post 10 times there before being able to use the better features of this forum.

Need to buy/sell web services? Go here 1st! You can find super prices (and freebies!) for programming, web design (Web Design by Steve included), link and traffic purchasing, content creation, and more.

But can these member services be trusted?? This is up to you; there is no control on quality. But you can get a good evaluation of the goods/service providers/buyers by viewing the feedback from other customers/sellers. Just click on their iTrader link.

Now for the super addictive function of this web forum: on the top navigation is a link, “Fun Stuff.” On the drop-down click on “Spy.” This takes you to a page that continuously loads with all new postings and listings. You can be the 1st one there to grab the deal you’re looking for.

… but maybe this is bad advice: you’ll likely get as addicted to this as I am!
