Bit I wonder is it possible for a man to successfully run a transsexual Porn site if he is not versatile and only tops?

Re: what does it take to run a porn studio/site?
considering the barrier to entry (cost, and distribution) are so shallow i'm amazed there are not a plethora of providers?
Every year at the exxotica festival there is always a new hot young company that seems to pop up....some times they last but most often they don't.
The one that was really amazing was BangBros....i have no idea how the hell those guys ever got off the ground and stayed up?
I remember in the early 2000's their web page security was such shit that a simple pass word generator would bust their sight wide open!
But let's be honest a stop at costco can pick you up a nice camera....for a lot less you can shoot it and edit via the GoPro app....fuck if you want strap two your head and insto presto you have 3D HD porn!
I use to think that the late 90's and early 2000's were the wild wild west of porn....until i started seeing the numbers fly with things like chatterbate and cam4.
If some of the women are making $1k a month then the take of the SP must be $2k+ a month....per girl.....shit pimps don't even make that much!
"How you doin!"

Re: what does it take to run a porn studio/site?
Entry cost of creating the content can be fairly low and some low-budget houses have done very well (it's how we started) but production is the easy part, the distribution and marketing is complicated and unless you have direct channels into the market (like Hungangels) then it's difficult to make a return. We aim at 3 yrs horizon for a return on each website, some have taken a lot longer but go in the right direction. If you consider how much it costs to set up and then continuously produce for 18+ months (break even point) then it's not as attractive as one may think.
Your numbers on cams are a bit off. Cam performers get paid 30-40% of the sale, so yes for every $1000 the model has brought in, the company is bringing in $1600-2200. Most of them rely on affiliates or bought traffic. Affiliates can make over 20-50% of the sale (total sale), then you have to look at hosting/bandwidth costs which are huge for cams, a minimum of 4-5% right off the top for billing/banking. Then you have staff fees, offices, etc. It's profitable but not as much as you may think, it's done by having a massive amount of cam performers so it's a numbers game.
