Soooo I have been on holidays for a couple of weeks and had to slow down everything. Also I am working on other projects so I can't spend as much time as I was hoping.
But I'm still going and the numbers are growing!

I was getting 6-12 visits per day with instagram, with 4,3 mins avg spent on site and a bounce rate of only 25/30% But unfortunally it got banned and I am not planning to create a new one.
So I started a new Twitter and it is bringing more visitors per day (17-21) but the bounce rate sadly increased to 40/55% and avg time 1/2 mins :(

But the best thing is that we got our first sales!!
Earnings: 24$ It is not much, but I wasn't expecting anything before 4/6 months.

What's the plan now?
Keep posting videos
Keep growing twitter
Working again on SEO
Finding some damn backlinks

Stats:
Videos uploaded: 110
Instagram Followers: 1691 BANNED
Pages indexed on Google: 173
Twitter New account: 368 followers so far

Nice! How are you building backlinks?
All clicks are organic from social medias. So far I got only 42 total web search clicks.
I am monetizing through an affiliate program. I earn a % whenever I refer a paying customer.

Can you tell us what is the name of the affiliate program that you use ?
It's amazing fact that you earned 24$ with less viewer :eek:

Anyway new update coming soon!

Little update even though not much has changed from last time.

I started getting some direct and organic traffic, but nothing special. My main traffic source is still Twitter.
Finally managed to build some backlinks.
Website is almost 4 months old
DA is now 16

New Earnings: 0$
Total Earnings: 24$
Total spent: 92$ (Domain + 1 year hosting)

Stats:
Videos uploaded: 153
Instagram Followers: 1691 BANNED
Pages indexed on Google: 201
Twitter account: 2026 followers

Here are the stats since launch:

Instagram was way better traffic than twitter (With IG my bounce rate was only 32% and avg. session duration 5 mins (+ got me 24$). But there's no poing of growing a new account since it would just get banned in a few weeks).

Bounce rate from organic search seems fine, this means Twitter traffic is kinda trash, so growing my SEO should help a lot.

I will keep adding videos and maybe I'll try to get some no-follow links now. Any tips?

The only way is getting plenty of keywords in title and comment of the videos to get a load of traffic-free from google.

Many ppl hammer social and spam the shit out of existing adult posts.

You can use scrape box get billions of adult backlinks .

So you think quantity over quality would be better when talking about adult backlinks?
Because I've been trying to get high quality non-spammy backlinks.

Working for 1 quality BL is worth more than billions of shit links.

Sometimes you don’t get any and sometimes you get a bunch. Just last week I finally got maybe 5 solid BLs from porn lists/directories and tube sites. They’re driving maybe only 50-150 daily views. But it took weeks of searching and emailing.

But they will help for years to come.

It may be worth it to buy hard links from larger tubes to get that traffic and try to convert it on can offers or some shit. A $500/ year link could get you at least that in ad revenue and CPA offers.

Yes true, I willl try to earn better backlinks once my traffic increases.
But for the moment I'm not going to invest money into expensive hardlinks.

Hey, how is your journey? It was good to see that someone else has that hard start, after reading through several other journeys with very fast growing earnings in just some months. I would like to know where/what you use to monetize your tube site? I have better stats but way lesser earnings atm.

Hey everyone! Small update.
Organic traffic has surpassed social traffic, but unfortunately we are still talking about low numbers.
During the last few months I have been working on other projects, so the time left for this tube was only about 16/8 hours per week. Hopefully I will have more time in the future.

New Earnings: 1$
Total Earnings: 25$
Total spent: 92$ (Domain + 1 year hosting)

Stats:
Videos uploaded
: 192
Instagram Followers:
1691 BANNED
Twitter account: 3890 followers

Here are the stats since launch:

One good thing is that 90% of traffic comes from T1 countries.

Hey! I am monetizing through some networks who pay per signup/money spent by referred user. Had some luck with a guy but then I didn't get any other sales. I am now thinking about embedding some videos from pornhub because I don't have much time left to write video titles/descriptions. I got less than 200 videos uploaded... and this tube is 7 months old already, lol

How/Where are you finding Quality Backlinks?
I don't really have many HQ backlinks atm:

These are from Linkspun and adult realted forums, but I haven't spent much time on finding good ones yet.
I'd love to contact mrporngeek or theporndude, but I think I should have more content first.

theporndude has these minimum requirements:
- A minimum stable Alexa ranking of 100.000
- Minimum 35.000 visitors /day
- A balance between direct and search engine traffic
- Minimum 35 % direct traffic

Hey, not much to update unfortunally.
I am working on bigger project atm so I set this one aside.
I'm uploading only a couple of videos per week :(

The only good thing is that organic search clicks started going up!
