Anime Streaming site

Hello everyone,
i always worked wit online businesses, ecommerce, site building, agency services and all this kind of stuff, but never done black hat stuff, i want to build an anime streaming website, but i really don't know where to start :

- In my country like in almost countries it's illegal, so first of all, what kind of hosting i should use and how i setup everything to not have problems
- once i got a wordpress site with a premade template for streaming, where i got the sources for anime? i hope all people who is doing this stuff is not manually downloading and uploading anime on their site
- how a streaming site like this can reach traffic if it's new
- what happen if the site will go off cause of reporting? i see a lot of streaming site getting down and next day online again with similar domain
- what kind of advertiser platforms let you put their ads on your site and pay well?
- is realistic to reach 1/2k a month in 3 month of net income?

I'm looking for someone experienced who can answer to all these question and maybe guide me till monetization in exchange for 30% of the revenue, only serious person.

Thank you!

Anyone? Please contact me

To start an anime streaming site, use offshore hosting and a VPN for privacy. For anime content, you can use APIs like Kitsu or Jikan, or work with third-party providers to avoid manual uploads. To drive traffic, focus on SEO, social media, and collaborations with anime influencers. If your site gets taken down, you can easily swap domains and servers to relaunch. For monetization, consider ad networks like PopAds or ExoClick, and also explore affiliate marketing for anime-related products. Earning $1-2k in three months is possible if you get enough traffic, but it will take time and effort. Be cautious, as this business can be risky.

@Rosarock How is going your process? Also i'm interested with this in another country.

hello i own multiple anime streaming sites

1. it doesnt matter if its illegal in your country because you'll most likely use an offshore hosting anyways, i would highly recommend dedicated vps for this rather than wordpress hosting, this way you have full control of your site, you can hide behind cloudflare which will hide your vps ip

also you need massive storage for this, currently anime at 1080p is taking me around ~30tb of storage, and thats ONLY 1080p alone for animes from 1980-2026 and counting, what about 720p and 360p? how about jp and en languages? you need to set this up, personally i have nvme NAS on my home

when choosing a dedicated vps get one that has at least 1gbps, lower than that woll slow you down in the long run, my bandwidth even reaches beyond 10gbps on peak hours

2. this is the hardest part: scraping
most sites are resistant against this but personally i wrote a torrent scraper right from the main sources ocer at nyaa.si while keeping sources from sites like hianime but 3rd party sources are not reliable (downtimes, rate limits you etc.), there are other sites you can steal embeds and m3u8s from but goodluck with that

3. google or tiktok or fb ads its your choice

4. depends how good your opsec is, my site is behind 3 layers of vpn that information costs money of which setup is the best, but thats on you how creative and skilled you are technically

5. this depends on you, ad services vary a lot and from time to time their cpms fluctuate there is no good answer to this unless you first test each out

6. yeah if you have good capital and have aggressive advertising

Does anyone know how I can buy this theme? Has anyone else bought it before, and how is this theme?
