Would you like to look over my shoulder?
I've been approached by several people that want me to teach them how to make money in the adult industry.
Generally, I have 100 jokes ready when asked that question, but the last request actually got me thinking.
I left that business in 2003 for very personal reasons, but I still keep up on what's going on in the business side of that industry. Last night, I ran an idea by my wife that may be a win-win for everyone. Now I'm going to see what you think and what your interest level is in this.
I'm willing to take 100 people under my wing and look over my shoulder as I create a new revenue stream with adult affiliate programs.
I'm not jumping back into the industry as a force to be reckoned with, but rather as an affiliate that plans on making a few programs a lot of money.
If you would like to see how I will do this AS I do it, then please enter your name and email address in the box below.
This won't be free. I will charge $197 one time via Paypal.com.
The content will be delivered through a password protected blog with 2-3 updates per week… starting at ground zero.
The content is NOT suitable or ANYONE under the age of 18, nor is it suitable or anyone easily offended.
I will break this down to an easily understandable level so you can replicate what I'm doing with ease.
The program will last 2-3 months (maybe more).
If the response is big enough, I will proceed forward.
Enjoy,
Woody

Are you not able to do the same thing with some other affliate program or product? I think most people are drawn to your site because they want to make that type of income and not have to deal with the porn. I know I was.
It's just a social thing much like all the goody too shoes that are complaining about the RJ Charity at the Playboy mansion—-stats say 65% of born again Christians look at porn on the web yet they are some of the loudest to condemn others.
Your newsletter is as close as we get to looking over your shoulder.
I'm in. But I want you to teach us so WE can be a force to be reckoned with
I can (and do) do the same thing in non-adult markets. The demand from readers is to learn it in the adult industry.
I'm simply listening to the market… there's a lesson there
Woody
I was drawn to the site for the same reasons Chuck.
I'm definitely not interested but know the the folks that partake in the training will get ton of value. $197 is pretty affordable.
I'm more interested in learning techniques that will help my non-adult online business.
Alejandro
Smart people will tune in just to learn the process, then apply it to their non-porn niche. That's what I'll be doing.
"stats say 65% of born again Christians look at porn on the web yet they are some of the loudest to condemn others."
And 95% of stats are made up on the spot. In other words, your stat is bogus. I'm not very religious, by the way, I just know a BS stat when I see one.
I'm with Alejandro, and I think this could be done just as easily for Woody's readers interested in the non-adult industry.
Woody, you say the same techniques can be used in non-adult markets, so why not reverse things and focus on non-adult industries and let the adult guys use the techniques in their industry? I think if you announced this same opportunity for non-adult markets, you'd get the same demand, if not more.
In fact, why not ask your readers? "Are you interested in this program for adult or non-adult markets?" I think you'll be surprised by the results.
You could even turn this into a case study. 50 non-adult marketers vs 50 adult marketers. If you decide to include some non-adult market guys/ladies, count me in.
Sounds good to me. I would suspect without knowing for sure that some of the strategies Woody would teach would be applicable in any industry.
yeah. i totally agree with you, Alejandro.
Point taken. Lesson learned. Thanks
Good luck to those who participate—you have a tremendous opportunity. Grab it and go!
I would be in favor of the NON Adult training. I would love to start from the beginning and work my way up! The idea of 50-50 case study could be very interesting.
As far as I'm concerned, the the porn industry is a twisted industry that graphically preys on one of our strongest most addictive hotpoints. 1000's of free videos and pics almost hypnotize people into buying monthly memberships or movies.
I admit that I have consumed my fair share of internet porn. What started as normal horny curiosity quickly turned into hours of wasted time and money browsing porn sites which left me feeling guilty yet also wanting more. Its easy to see how this can suck in addictive personalities. I was lucky enough to see the danger in this after some reflection on my actions. I learned how to kill the cravings before things got out of control.
I read all the time of people being fired from their jobs over feeding their addiction at work. I have a friend who is divorced over being caught using and meeting women from adult dating sites. This guys life is in pieces.
We wont learn any sales skills here from Woody. What we will learn is how to get our offer in front of hungry customers in whatever competitive niche we tackle. The only ethical dilemma I had about watching over Woody's shoulder is, I know people will use it to profit from the Porn industry. Fueling this monster even more.
I concluded that I shouldn't feel responsible for what people do with Woody's info. Thats their own business and I believe the past will come back to haunt them If they pursue this path.
Woody, I did you consider doing this experiment another highly competitive saturated niche such as "Make Money Online"?
Whatever you decide, I will be looking over your shoulder as you do know your stuff, you are open an honest in all you do and I've got great results from what you teach here.
I will use that info in my own niches.
To Woody's readers, have you considered using this info against the porn industry? Fire up your keyword research tool and put input terms such as "Sex addiction", "Porn addiction" etc. There is alot of people out there that are victims of this industry. Why not use your skills to help these people? I know I will.
Woody, what about a combined effort from your readers and colleagues to knock some highly searched porn terms off of google, replacing them with info on the dangers of the insustry and products and services to help out victims? With the participation of your massive audience schemes like social booking, social networking, PRWeb, link bait etc, I think we could create some fantastic results and a massive buzz.

Since this starts to look like an impromptu vote here is mine: Yes to looking over your shoulder at a non-adult affiliate program revenue stream setup.
Look over your shoulder, Woody?
I'd be mad not to.
Count me in!
And Count me in too–I can't wait to learn the traffic generating techniques of the ADULT ( not porn:) ) industry!
Some of you miss the point here that Woody is willing to share with us something that NO ONE ELSE out there is doing. We can sign up for tons of other newsletters and programs to learn how to be a super affiliate in the NON-Adult world, but were the hell are you going to have this opportunity?
Let me share the point—I happen to own 3 Paris Hilton domain names. I have for 4 years, but didn't know what the hell to do with them till I found an affiliate program for her video. Not being a real programer ( know enough to be dangerous) I just cut and pasted their affiliate page onto the index page of the domain with my code in it. Set up a small adwords campaign ( my first ) and in a month had 10 sales and earned $30/each. Spent just as much on the adwords, and didn't have enough time to tweak it so just stopped! ( STUPID I know ) But the site sits there and made me $90 last month just due to searches for Paris! NOw–my point is–The Adult affiliate programs pay out quite well and most also have revenue share programs today as well.
If you subscribe to WordTracker and get their list of most searched terms on the internet each month—it isn't nutrisystem!! Or " how to make money on the internet"!! The most searched terms/words are ALL Adult/sex related!!
I want to know how to get more of that pie, and monetize the 100 adult domain names that i currantly own.
Hope you choose to follow through with this program, woody.

EXACTLY. Well said Jeff. I only hope people see your point of view and sign up for it. This is the kinda' stuff 'guru's' just don't do. Good on you Woody for listening to the market.
I hope you do this… and I'm ready to learn and implement to make a killing in the adult market.
I'm also looking forward to learning the techniques for non adult markets.

Hello Woody and everyone,
My two cents on this is this - most of you are missing the point, except for a couple of people. Here is the point, people… Woody is trying to teach the approach, techniques, step by step method on HOW TO drive insane amount of TRAFFIC to a affiliate program/website. So, LEARN this knowledge and apply to WHATEVER niche/industry that you want. Instead, you guys are starting a debate about ADULT vs NON ADULT. Who cares?? The value is in the knowledge NOT the industry…
Here's the kicker.. that post about "some guy got divorced and his life is in pieces"… Jeez, cry me a river!! He is an ADULT. Nobody put a gun to his head and said.."type this http://www.F*CKPU**S**.com or whatever in your browser and go ape sh*t!!" Take RESPONSIBILITY for your own action!! You got caught cheating on your wife, she divorces your sorry a*s and your blaming the industry/website?? Be an ADULT and own up!! If I screw up my life by doing stupid s*it, it's nobody faults but my own!!
Sorry… I just get worked up by people who refuse to own up to their RESPONSIBILITY and want to pass it on the environment that they were "trapped" in.
Lastly, Woody and everyone. I did not come here to offend anyone, as I said, that's just my two cents.
Cheers.
Andrew
Why not offer both? And let the customers decide. 2 different blogs with different customers.
I'm sure the strategies differ..
I second that. If woody is willing to spill the beans on his adult-related business techniques, by all means please do. These are just techniques, people. We just have to tweak it for non-related business. Go for it, Woody.
I think the correct poll should be:
1. Adult
2. Non-Adult
3. Both

I'm just thinking about the adult affiliate program stuff… and wondering that maybe some of the techniques aren't fully effective for non-adult niches.
For example, Woody, you posted a entry about traffic trading, but traffic trading is very difficult to implement to say, a 'how to grow the biggest tomatoes in the world' market
So I guess the question here would be, are the traffic/conversion techniques used in non-adult niches significantly different to them in adult niches?
Shamir
John,
Cant argue with that being an Adult. I personally would put it down to my pathetic weakness if I F**k up at anything and would take full RESPONSIBILITY. I shouldnt have quoted the cases in my comment as Its not relevent to Woody's post. Sorry, realised that after pressing submit.
Final note. Its not the adults I worry about. Have a chat on this topic with any school teacher. See if that doesnt scare the sh**t out of you. Better yet have a look at the clips some teenagers phones. Call me old fashioned, but Im damn glad I wasn't having sex at 12 years of age and (at that age I didnt know the first thing about it).
Who do you blame for this John? Dont even try blaming parents or the likes of Playboy. They were also around 20 years ago.
Im not a parent and if I was I would be freaked out.
Innocence in no longer part of society.
Go ahead and promote your porn and while you are at it tell your local cocaine dealer its ok to sell his merchandise as his teenage customers should take RESPONSIBILITY for their actions when they become adults.
End of rant, email me on cranleyirl@gmail.com if you want to argue some more.
Sorry Woody and readers.
Making money is not about scruples and morals, If you take a sabbatical to the heights of Mount Kilamanjaro, you will certainly have access to cleaner air that will make your blood a lot more richer in oxygen (go figure).
Woody is offering his knowledge and experience on how he did business in the most lucrative niche on the planet.
If you were damn good at something, made sh!+loads of money from the marketing techniques you improvised and implemented and having pooled the "workables" together to have them delivered as a training package at a measly fee of $197.00 what more could the aspiring affiliate marketer ask for?
What difference does it make teaching it from either perspective?
Substance over moral standards, you getting a Jumbo Whopper for the price of a mini kids meal, The techniques you are about to learn I believe are not restrictive to any one niche, it's simply a stragey on how to generate income without wasting your valuable time and money.
If the niche your about to learn about is one of the most complicated to break into and the most fiercely competitive and now to have access to the quality information that can elevate you to the top percentile of income earners, can you imagine applying these strategies in a less competitive and less volatile niche?
Woody is offering to teach us how to make money strajght from the heart and to show you the very same techniques that he used to dominate a particular niche, so why not learn it the way he did it?
Most Honorebel
