I know this is an Adult Webmaster board, but...
 
I was just curious if anyone here also does mainstream sites.

I do recipe, gardening, and metaphysical sites in addition to doing my adult sites.

I find it to be a welcome deversion...sometimes I just get tired of looking at naked people ;)

I've been toying with the idea myself.

How about posting a link to one your sites, I would be interested in seeing one.

Adult webmasters have a pretty "Liberal" view of mainstream. This question gets asked frequently, and the responses are both predictable and questionable at best. My definition of mainstream is something you can discuss at the dinner table with aunt Edna. I believe you will find this is not the case around here. It is the holy grail of porn to get out of it and become "accepted". Kind of like Joe Kennedy. But the fact is that we are purveyors of dirty pictures and if you even use the term "mainstream", you are not.

Yes, and I'll leave it at that. For obvious reasons I keep them separate from my adult sites.

Thanks for the replies everyone....

Rcourt,
If I stayed off the boards, you'd miss me. :rolleyes:

sarettah,
Yes, I know you & your lovely have mainstream sites. Duh.

bluemoney,
If you need any encouragement, hit me up, I'd be glad to help in any way I can.

rhetorical,
I agree with your Aunt Edna scenerio. I have never said I was getting out of porn, it's just a welcome deversion for me to do something else. As for the "we are purveyors of dirty pictures" I don't think everyone that does porn is. The pics never did much for me to be honest, but I do like a good story.

Toby,
I understand, I'm the same way, that's why I didn't post any links to mine.

gonzo,
I would like to hear more about those panels if you have a mind to share.

Again, I thank everyone for their replies, I was just curious :)

not sure where you get your facts from, but myself and the other adult industry people I work with have tons of sites in various niches of the mainstream world

I do a lot of travel/vacation and insurance news/resource sites, and a few electronics deals sites...and I would venture to say at least 25% of my income comes from mainstream

my dad and I also work together on a lot of online travel stuff....we do quite well with it actually

Once again you make an issue of sematics rather than substance.

That was not a matter of semantics my pedantic friend. But if it was, why is that a problem? You are also entitled to argue thuis. It is the English language we use to communicate and sell our products, no? So WTF is wrong with using it when confronted by moronic posts?

T'is no different than attacking the messenger rather than the message. It's something you do consistantly. I'm not sure if you do it to delierately side track the discussion, or if you're just that bloody obsessive.

Nope. It is neither. I actually don't do "it". That is your opinion. The sentence can hardly be construed as the messenger. The messenger delivers the message. I was responding to what I consider verbage. No more no less. Do you consider that semantics? I don't.

Yes, I certainly do consider that to be sematics. It most certainly has little or nothing to do with the topic du jour, and criticizing the grammar/verbage is indeed attacking the messenger.

The only reason to nitpick the message is to attempt to discredit the messenger, because the argument against the message is weak.

Since we're all English professors here, I believe you meant "bell just rang", or "bell was just rung".

I disagree. When the argument is lame, as so many of Sarettah's are, then you need to point that out. Language is like a tapestry, woven with care. Or woven with care. Get the difference? Sarettah, bless his heart, does his best but falls very short. He fires broadsides from the hip with little substance, but most never question it. I do.

You can never win a argument with a woman, they just keep changing the subject of the argument until the opponent surrenders.

If that's what you consider a victory, then congrats, you won.

Of course you didn't. That was my point. As for the shit stirring, you play the game and when you fuck up, you always post something like this. It just takes a few posts till you realize the corner you have painted yourself into, then you step in wet paint and Robert would be your father's brother. Toby, this is getting boring. You need a new schtick.

You seem to need something to occupy your time if you are so bored that what you've been up to on the board today is your idea of fun.

I have another name for it, annoying.

Toby, you don't seem to get it. Dude, I am retired. I do this whole fucking thing for amusement and a shit pot of money. But it is not real work. That is over for me. Now I travel. Shoot pictures of girls. Walk in the mountains four times a week. Drive my Porsche. And............here is the kicker, argue with guys like you. You cannot win. And if you think this is bullshit, you are very, very wrong.
Oh yeah, and I have a lot of sex...but that is just a diversion.
