Okay I want my own ladyboy/tranny webcam site (^.o)

I know that this is a long shot as making my own might take away a tiny weenie itsy bitsy bit of business from a netpond sponsor but here goes.

I now have 45 shemale hosts who work directly for me under 5 different sites and connections to about 20 or so agents who work with 10 or so each themselves. This means I can get about 200 to 400 hosts for my cam site straight off the bat without any trouble.

I can personally grantee my 45 at the very least will have a consistent online presence during the buildup of this site.

I’ve got a bunch of questions id like intelligent people to comment on but I also realize it’s not in the interest of many to help with the answers. I’m going to understand if nobody has any ideas cause if you do have ideas there is a good chance your already in the business and don’t want competition and if you aren’t you might not know anything to comment.

Here goes

1) What hardware do I need to host it and where should that hosting be? Would it make more sense to put the server close to the hosts or to the customers or does it make no difference.

2) Who or where can I get a php guy or software to run this. Out of the 5 sites I currently work on Imlive is by FAR the best for the simple reason it doesn’t tie up the webcam 100% of the time and I'm able to run 3 or 4 hosts accounts from one pc. This is what I will need as my hosts intend on maintaining their current sites and just running mine in the background like they do now with imlive. This is the only way it can work really apart from separate webcams as I cannot ask hosts to work my site alone for the first 2 years when the traffic is so low they cannot make any money.

3) Will the payment company and data costs bleed me dry so much so that I would actually be far better to stick to using other peoples existing sites rather then my own. This also applies for traffic to I guess in that 95% of profit would go to getting the traffic in the first place making my own site a moot point.


One way or another I’ve decided to do this but all that remains to be seen is if I lose just a little bit of money or a whole lot. I must profess the webcams biz is just a hobby for me atm that seemed to be more fun and earn way more then low yield municipal bonds. This and the fact I’ve still got a day job means I can really pour its own money back into itself to fund ideas such as this. My other hobby is square wave pulse ICU’s into varying plate designs trying to see if I can break the laws of Thermodynamics and produce lots more hydrogen from smaller amounts of power then others have using solar cells. (Had really interesting results with interlocking CPU cooler heat sinks spaced just right). Faced with these odds and the chance that if I succeed I will be whacked by an oil company anyways, I’m much more liking the webcams idea.
I’m not lazy when it comes to research and I have and will source good information from many places but due to the cleverness of the ponds inhabitants I though this would be a logical place to start.

To those who commented on my avatar I thank you for your comments but I was ashamed to say anything about it for 2 reasons. 1) Some might have though I was female and thus been less likely to give advice to a guy with a girl avatar. 2) That I saw the avatar on a free download site and ruthlessly copied it for my own making me a low down dirty unoriginal avatar thief…..but I liked it so much I just had to have it.

Thanks again for all whom have been so nice to me. There are some truly wonderful helpful people in this place.
