Question
Hi,
I am thinking of starting up a porn video website for amateurs. I wanted to know how much do I have to pay the talents for any type of scene, be it solo, duo, 3some, orgy or even just erotic nude photoshoots.
What are the price range? Any difference if it's a male or female? I need to know how much capital I should start with in order to get talents for my website.


Answer
There is not a set fee for the type of website/porn you want to produce.  You would have to test the market - and see if you are able to get talent, and at what fee (start low and negotiate up if need be).  You might also want to check with other similar sites/producers and find out what they pay, as well as if they might be willing to buy your productions, because it might be more profitable for you to sell your productions to an already established distribution company/website.

Another option it to set-up a few "sets" with computers, high speed internet and webcams, and sell live adult webcam shows.  If you are interested in this type of business, you can send a request for information to hosts@thebabecams.com

Regarding finding talent, I recommend that you advertise in relevant forums/sections on craigslist.com, backpage.com and xpeeps.com
