Members msclelovr Posted May 26, 2019 Members Posted May 26, 2019 This is a serious question. I’m not criticizing what others post in the forums. I imagine that a lot of the threads and the various forums must take up considerable space on the servers. And I have no idea what income the site might generate. I’m simply curious about the running costs - as to how much approximately this site costs to run - and whether this is sustainable by the owners. My interest in this has been piqued by the ‘other site’ where the owner seems very regularly to solicit donations and to complain about the low level of his ‘reserves’. Quote
AdamSmith Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 The ‘other’ site owner is a terrible businessman whose other income streams are from (attempting to) offer web hosting services that have by today become completely mooted by AWS, Azure et al. OZ by contrast subsidizes this site by profitable sales of online porn on various other sites. And also gets revenue from others’ live-action porn sites he redistributes here, if I understand. OZ can correct any of the above if not right. Quote
Popular Post TotallyOz Posted May 26, 2019 Popular Post Posted May 26, 2019 Happy to help. The site does not make enough income to support the cost of running it. Donations are accepted at any time. jk Sites ebb and flow and money comes and goes. It is never enough to pay programmers, keep up with new code, upgrades, security, etc the way I like to do it. This site is a passion of love for me. I love hookers. I love people who love hookers. I love gay sex and I love people who love gay site. But, I mostly love gay hooker sex. So, I am OK with not making ends meet on the site. However, the costs of running the site is VERY low. Unless I decide to pay myself a salary. Then, the costs go up. My understanding is that Daddy needs money for his lifelihood from his site. I don't begrudge him that. And, I hope he finds what he needs to life his life happy.

Members smoothpubes Posted June 2, 2019 Members Posted June 2, 2019 It's very hard to make money on a nich webforum. It certainly looks like TotallyOz has the right idea here. Quote
TotallyOz Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 There was a time (Hooboy's time) when one could make a great living off of a small niche site. Now, it is harder unless you are the topdog. And, when the market becomes saturated, it is harder. Ex: Rentboy was a great money maker but a big site. One very successfully place is a site that dedicates itself to bears. AdamSmith 1 Quote

Members Lucky Posted April 7, 2020 Members Posted April 7, 2020 Ebb and flow, ebb and flow. I know that I am not the only member here who likes to see new content when I visit, especially now that we are getting bored staying at home. I encourage everyone to come up with something to say.We don't want the same old guys (like me!) to keep the content flowing. Let's have some fresh blood! Now, let's see. How can I decorate this post...hmm... TotallyOz 1 Quote
