porn traffic is up this year, but also porn *sales*. the key to all of us eating :)

that's a nice size VPS.

Me neither.
I was talking about competition.

You are going to compete with companies which have been doing this for 15 years, some of them have MILLIONS of videos and THOUSANDS of servers, setting up the correct technical architecture took them several years, etc etc
these are big big big businesses and I would not start a tube in 2023 unless I have a big chunk of money to get things started properly and professionaly

that's all I'm saying :2 cents:

You can feed yourself with a smaller spoon too, man. You dont need to be the biggest, you can make a very comfortable income with a small tube still.

:thumbsup

yea gar said below he nets $4-5k. nice easy income to pay the mortgage and cards.

the "be #1 or don't do it" mentality isn't relevant in porn. there's too many niches and fetishes - and not enough good webmasters.

we've all seen some tiny niche with a simple landing page blow up. i have a client making a killing on diaper videos.

15-25 years in the industry is not required. you just need good ideas and figure out how to implement them.

this is a marketing business. :2 cents:

ive done dev work for so many customers using your platform, although i dont need support since i manage my own servers, everytime they need to contact support to get a db backup or a ssh account or ftp account made, its quick, and you dont see that from a lot of other vps hosts, digitalocean it could be days and even a week for a reply from them.

i really have only 1 new wp site on it currently (5 months old), the other sites are just dev environments, its at about 750k uniques a month so far and its fast. no issues so far

But what if he wants to "get into the adult industry"??

Another interesting new feature I enabled last week is up to 4TB of NVMe storage in our VPS lineup. Originally, this was limited to 500GB then I changed it to 1TB, 2TB and now it's at 4TB. I'm trying to be a little more disruptive with our approach here. So much free bandwidth in addition to tremendous volume size capabilities really differentiates our VPS product from the whole spectrum of competitively available offers.

So, for example, someone could now develop a site going really narrow on CPU and RAM requirements but wide on storage. Conversely, could go very high on CPU and RAM and not have to pay for storage they don't want, which is very often the option people are otherwise left with.

These plans start at $29.99 and include 300 Megabit of unmetered bandwidth. In the coming months, all of the VPS plans will be changed to gigabit unmetered.

Sincerely,

Brad

can't tell if serious...
