I agree with all you say Toby. However there are a lot of newbies who are expecting "big" money from the web. They expect to get a site up and running and the money to flood in. Of course that is not the case.

The 4 Ps of marketing are just as relevant to the web as they are in the bricks and mortar world. Product, Price, Place and Promotion. If you make the best toothpaste in the world but it's overpriced, not on supermarket shelves, and no one knows it exists - you won't sell a lot of it! Just as important is understanding that this is a numbers game. I am not too sure how many newbies have even the basic understanding of how/where to get some stats and know even less about analysis and using the numbers for decision making!

I also agree that it's not a good idea to launch an affiliate program along with the launch of the site unless you're already experienced in building your own traffic and fine tuning tours. Having a substantial non-affiliate income is critical for an independent site to survive, otherwise the margins are just too tight to justify the time and effort needed to maintain the site.

Some friends of ours took a year and a half to shoot content, buy and set up NATS, buy a booth at internext, get their pictures taken with porn stars and refused to launch until they had the big cash programme...and, btw...a huge debt. They were convinced they were going to be rich. Here is the result:

exactly. They did everything but build traffic and they failed. Now sonar cash is an oops page.

It's a good bet they're amongst the people who spout the "there's no money in porn" line - I keep seeing it on forums dating up to a few years back.

My site's been steadly growing, particularly over the last few months. Can't afford to sit back though and I don't want to - promotion needs to be done constantly aswell as tweaking the site. Alot of people who start their own business don't realise how much work needs to be done. And, of course, there are no guarantees!

This was the affiliate program for Leggy Simone.

I know they didn't update their affiliate tools for a while.

Damn, it's getting harder to find sites to promote these days.

We have two new ones on the way with leak free tours (Toby take note :) ) and will post details as soon as they are live. They are both real goodies and I am sure your surfers will love them!

Sounds good, Geoff.

I prefer leak free tours as well ;)

Looking forward to promoting these new sites.

I have a links page for toplists and other sites that I promote with my affiliate program. I also offer my affiliates with a "non link" tour alternative
