Since I’m targeting a different segment in the blogging market which many have left out, primarily on sex, I thought of writing this article to list a few affiliate programs which you can use to monetize your adult traffic.
NOTE: If your country has laws prohibiting you to monetize this sort of trade or if you are BELOW 18 – STOP reading this article.
I got my inspiration from Mike through his blog on Mike’s Money Making Mission for quite sometime now as I have always been a loyal reader of his blog. Mike, if you are reading this, I sorta ‘borrowed’ the list from you! The bottom line is – sex sells. If you have read my other article on whether sexy picture increases web hits – you bet it did!
I believe that it is wise to diversify your online income into several different money making programs. Trend changes pretty quickly when it comes to the Internet age and if you fail to adapt to these changes – it’s your loss. If you are thinking of diversifying your online income into adult traffic here are several programs which you can use:
Monetization Method 1: FriendFinder.com or AdultFriendFinder.com
They have one of the largest selections of money making programs where once you have signed up for their affiliate program, you have access to all these programs. FriendFinder.com is an online dating site while Adult FriendFinder caters ‘adult traffic’.
FriendFinder – Earn $25 for every order regardless of purchase amount or up to 100% of the membership fees ($19.94 and $139.95 plus bonus) or $2.00 for every woman and $1.00 for every man who signs up for free.
Adult FriendFinder – Earn $30 per order, up to $1.00 per unique traffic or up to 75% of initial membership fees plus bonus.
Also available: Passion.com, ALT.com, Bondage.com, OutPersonals.com, Cams.com, GayFriendFinder.com, SeniorFriendFinder.com, AsiaFriendFinder.com, FilipinoFriendFinder.com, FrenchFrendFinder.com, KoreanFriendFinder.com, ItalianFriendFinder.com, IndianFriendFinder.com, Amigos.com, GermanFriendFinder.com, JewishFriendFinder.com, LesbianPersonals.com, MillionaireMate.com, BigChurch.com, GuanXi.com, Slim.com, GradFinder.com, Breakthru.com, ShareRent.com, Dine.com and NiceCards.com.
Generally you can earn through 4 options for each of the programs listed above:
1. Per Member Payout – $2/woman or $1/man who signs up for free, plus bonus
2. Percentage Program – receive a percentage of initial and reorders or membership orders ($9.95 to $149.95), plus free signup bonus of $0.10 a woman and $0.05 per man
3. Per Order Payout – Earn a flat rate of $25 for every order.
4. Broker Programs – Earn 10% of whatever the webmasters referred by you made from the program
You will receive your payments by checks with minimum cash out of $50.
To monetize this program effectively, you’ll need to analyze your site’s web traffic. Sites that promote affiliate programs or money making programs such as mine would be more effective in promoting the Broker Programs.
If you have a site which promotes something like an online dating site and encourages signups I believe the Per Member Payout works much better.
On the other hand, if your site excels in selling things online you should definitely promote the percentage or per order payout program.
Monetization Method 2: SexToySex.com/Convergence
Earn 20% commission on all your sales and 7% from affiliates who signed up under you.
Here are several programs which you can promote:
Adult Product Store Video on Demand Theater Webcam Network DVD Store Lingerie Store Viagra, Cialis, Levitra pharmacy
Monetization Method 3: DIY-Dating.com
Create a 100% free dating site and earn from 50% to up to 88% commission whenever an account you referred chooses to upgrade their account. You get to earn another 82% on recurring subscriptions. Upgrade fees may vary from £10 to £120.
You also get to earn 10% affiliate commission whenever the account that you have referred below you has referred more accounts in the second level – this is applicable for a lifetime!
Monetization Method 4: ExoClick.com
This is a PayPerClick network whereby there have adult ads available on their network (you can toggle ON/OFF at the adult filter option)
Cost per click can range from $0.01 up to $2 (you share 50/50 profit). You can also make 5% for a lifetime from the referrals referred under you.
You can cash out the money from your account with a minimum payout of $10 into your PayPal, ePassporte, checks by mail ($30 fees) or wire transfer ($20 fees).
Do check out this page constantly as I will be updating it frequently with the latest sex monetization methods.
Credits should be given equally to Mike from Mike’s Money Making Mission.

It seems Google is run by incompetent fools – at least in the web spam department (or are they?). Their recent PR update is outrages! Although their aim is to reduce web spam – I believe they have a different agenda when they pushed the ‘update PR’ button on their PC.
What difference could they possibly make apart from reducing global PR stats?
Advertisers would still have cash to burn, to buy links from sites and to exploit SEO further using many other ‘unethical’ ways deemed by Google in order to get their search engine ranking up.
Publishers would still seek ways/methods to monetize their sites and there would be a never ending supply of new websites which would be added into the pool of sites participating in link sales and paid posts.
Google can penalize these sites one-by-one or rather manually but how far can they go? Google commented that their recent update uses some form of manual assessment on whether the site ‘deserves’ to be demoted in terms of their PR.
But I find it laughable that they don’t even dare to ‘touch’ a few high profile sites which still trade links or rather sponsored posts, one way or another. Do they fear these ‘high profile’ sites, which someday might repel and launch a massive anti-Google campaign and indirectly cause Google’s stocks on NASDAQ to come crashing down? (That’s what happened on E*Trade)
You can interpret paid posts and sponsored links two ways – Your way or Google’s way.
Sponsored posts/paid links (interpreted my way) – advertisers just want some buzz from you and pay you money so that their business can gain exposure from the paid post that you wrote or simply to divert some of your traffic back to their website through the paid link.
Sponsored posts/paid links (interpreted Google’s way) – either way, it infringes their TOS as it screws up their algorithm when it comes to search engine ranking (or does it?) Either way, you are not allowed to write any paid reviews or put any sponsored links on your site or your PR would be demoted, you loose web traffic and advertisers wouldn’t want to advertise on your site anymore.
The online advertisement industry yields billions of dollars in revenue every year and the big three namely Microsoft, Yahoo and Google are seizing every opportunity to increase their market share.
The main question remained unanswered – did Google’s recent move to penalize sites that published sponsored posts and paid link have anything to do with their main agenda of securing a much larger market share in the online advertising arena?
I felt the recent PR update was pretty biased and although they say PR is dead – is it really dead? The answer lies within you! (and Google)
You Comment I Follow!
Do you think that the recent PR update was fair or controversial? |
Google is watching – each time you update your blog with paid postings, your PR gets demoted. I didn’t update one of my blogs and it remained PR4 until end of October – after I have updated it with paid posts, Google demoted my PR from 4 to 2 and now 0.
I believe Google has changed their algorithm to update any site’s PR once a paid post is detected. For example, if you use words such as
1. sponsored
2. brought to you by
3. this is a paid post
4. PayPerPost
OR
5. Text Link Ads
Google will know that you are posting a paid post and subsequently demote your PR. Getting penalized by Google doesn’t mean that paid blogging is dead. You can still write paid posts provided you take necessary steps to prevent Google from detecting it – by not using any of the words mentioned above and writing paid opportunities that is similar to your blog’s category.
On the other hand, you can use paid posting alternatives such as
1.SponsoredReviews – you don’t need to disclose anything and you can even earn up to $175 per referral using their new referral system
2. Smorty/ReviewMe/PayU2Blog – you can use these but there are limited opportunities available
3. AssociatedContent – Write articles and get paid for each of your articles! I made close to $500 bucks from writing articles for AssociatedContent alone
Read my Free Make Money Online Guide here.
However, if you have yet to diversify your online earnings, you should try diversifying into
1. Traffic exchange sites
2. Link directories
3. Affiliate Marketing
I just bought a domain yesterday and will be developing it into an affiliate center. The domain is BestBuyout.com and I hope to capture traffic from Best Buy. I believe that I will be spending most of my time developing this site.
On the other hand, I’m also shopping for good domain names with PR on GoDaddy. Who knows I might land myself with a nice PR6 domain name – that would surely brighten up my day :) AndrewOoi bought a PR4 for only $18.99 from GoDaddy.
What other online ventures are you aware of?
