The Real Amateurs Project
Webmaster Resources
General Advice and Resources... Here are some pearls of wisdom I've collected over the last five years. This is certainly not all you need to know, but it's a good start.

First - Solve Your Hosting Problems!
Enough cannot be said for good hosting. Real Amateurs sees a new guest every 45 seconds, and the average visit is ~ 35 minutes. And it NEVER gets sluggish! Visit ChiliHost and contact Luke - he is the very best!

Unless you're getting into this as a "paying hobby" - a situation where you'd like to see some return on your effort but a lack thereof doesn't mean foreclosure, reposessions and starvation - then do the smart thing and resolve your host before you depend on it. You can build the spiffiest website in the world, and it will do you no good if people can't access it quickly and reliably.

Next - Find Quality Traffic!
There are literally a zillion places you can get adult traffic from. My faves are listed at the left.
|
|
** Virtually every directory demands a reciprocal link, although some directory managers think it's fine to wait up to a month before sending you traffic - in the mean time, they're getting traffic from the recip link. Other directories have a "tiered" traffic policy; they buy premium quality traffic for use internally, and "junk" traffic to make it seem as if they're sending you a lot of hits... They are, but unfortunately most of them are non-English-speaking surfers from 3rd-world countries not noted for their online purchasing power.

Then - Choose Your Partners Wisely!
As US government regulations become more pervasive (and make less sense) you will need to consider what company you're putting yourself into when you input your name, address and other personal information into somebody's affiliate signup form and press the button.
|
|
While the debate continues about what actually constitutes a "producer" or "secondary producer," you can go a long way in keeping your ass out of hot water if you promote organizations who are compliant. This means avoiding "barely legal" content, especially if it's offshore stuff which might not have the required records.

My Favorite Affiliate Programs! Great programs by folks who treat us, our surfers and their models with respect.

Lastly - Label Your Pages!
A visit to the Internet Content Rating Association is free, fast, and painless. And it will help assure that your naughty pages don't show up on public school terminals or in other locations that do you no good and might cause problems!

About...
The Real Amateurs Project - This place started out life as a small, private site where I'd share pictures with my friends. Word got out, and - after some initial pains - it has grown into what you see at present.
Your Host - Most of the folks who know me well call me Rotten Ray. This is for a variety of reasons. I'm the webmaster for a few premium sites, a job I truly enjoy since it keeps me involved with the flesh... If you know what I mean!
|
|
My What You See Is What You Get Philosophy - I do my best to accurately describe what you'll find in any site I link to. I don't link to crappy sites - it's nothing but headaches and heartaches. I truly enjoy this little adventure, and I hope you enjoy what you find here...
Your Host, Rotten Ray
