Re: I like to promote “Indie Sites” but . . .
As an 'indie' when I started it was just me doing it for rlove of porn, exhibitionism, and certain fetishes. Indie = just me and my husband, trying to figure out huow to make our members and ourselves happy with the content and the site, no affiliate manager to tell us how a program needs to work, and no extra man-hours to design lots of versions of our sites.
Still we have learned and have leak-free versions of all our tours, but I will say affiliate sales have never been the majority of my sales and for many indies they may not know how important this is for affiliates, or it may just not be very high on their priority list. As a lady running my own site, I sometimes have to choose whether to spend my time supporting affiliates or members, and webmasters sometimes don't win. (sorry!)
