Jaycuzzi,

Welcome to Oprano....I think AEBN rocks! They have provided me with great theaters to compliment many of our sites and we are very new. We have had success despite all the free porn out there - people still pay. AEBN has been a really honest and safe affiliate program no scams or games going on behind the scenes and the traffic and clicks I have sent really end up there and convert.

I am very new but have seen some success and some failures as well - and without starting another thread on the negative I can tell you be careful who you do business with and whom you choose to affiliate yourself with. Search the affiliate programs for the complaints and check this board for some of the proof about those that skim and redirect and have so called "technical errors" that take your traffic and sales.

The terminology webmaster can be defined broadly and the TOS (terms of service) of most of the affiliate programs do not list credentials you must have to use the title. But to be successful at driving traffic and converting sales there is a lot to learn and some is trial and error. Keep asking questions and check cozyfrog they have some useful information to help get you started.

Good luck!

Gonzo: You're right, sorry, I forgot. You don't appreciate my advice so I'll refrain from offering it to you again.

Shellee: Well said! It might also be good advice for newbies to look at companies who have built something, that have real products out there, and who have been in this business for years before considering anything they have to say. And moreso, Beware of those who are "experts on everything" but have nothing more than a string of domain names with placeholder pages as "proof" of their "expertise". There are lots of posers out there.

Cheers all!

Im still not ashamed.
How are you a webmaster if you dont have a website?

Its not a matter of being rude or protective. Its a simple quetion like how can you call yourself a driver if you dont have a car?

I will be in San Fran as well. Maybe you can explain it there.

You have 2 of the best reps in the company willing to give you some assistance as well. And Liz was honest in telling you that you will be disapoiinted if you are looking to be succesful with using Xpeeps as a promo tool.

I guess they could link from blogger, myspace, wordpress.com, etc at least until they got shut down.

it's bad, cost of entry is already too low and now they dont even wanna have a website.

I didnt think of that.
Mailing came to my mind too quick.

Those still would be considered websites of sorts...remember how I had that free host way back and grew that guys blowjob pay site out of it?

He started with a free host and tapped the bj market right in the beginning.

I never understood how he just shut everything down once Visa wanted the $750. I saw those checks.... hell those checks were coming to me.

It could be done way back then but I have my doubts of starting any site that could turn lucrative using any sort of free host.

Hes welcome to try though. Everyone here can have a free blog!

If AEBN supports CNAME, in theory you could buy a domain and just point it at that them. You'd need a GOOD domain to see any real returns though.
