seems to me that the days of one girl running their own site are basically dead, and the ones that exist are typically faceless

today it seems like clip stores are in and maybe it's just me but finding the good ones feels like finding a needle in a hay sack, plus i don't really like paying 10 bucks or so for just 1 clip

It's a very different environment now. The most you'll usually see in the self-run sector is a college girl on tumblr posting some pics, noticing that people are enjoying the ones of her feet and starts focusing on that, and eventually taking off 2 or 3 months down the road when the anon hate and creepy questions become too much for them to bear.

This doesn't account for everyone, but it's a vicious cycle nonetheless. Dedicated foot models who get involved in the community are much less common than they were a decade ago. And when it's so much easier to be subject to abuse... I can't say I blame them.

I'm not sure if it's easier or not for foot models to get abused, but I will tell you that the burnout rate in this business is high, in my opinion.

I also think that a lot of one model sites tend to fall victim to the sheer number of other sites out there, and find it increasingly difficult to make any profits, so they fold.

And, I personally think that we're all "victims" of the triumph of the Internet. When I started my site, finding good feet shots on the net was still relatively rare, and now, there are so many sites to chose from, that it's increasingly hard for producers to make any money.

In my case, when I started, I made a conscious decision to keep penises and vaginas out of my site, and I'm OK with that, no regrets, but I know that a lot of guys will always chose some of the "pornier" content that other sites offer. I suppose the consumer will almost always want to get "more bang" for their buck.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a prude, and I don't resent other producers that offer harder content than I do, but to ignore that aspect of the biz is just naive.

i like foot jobs at all, i never had any interest in joining sites to see just foot modeling pics

you say that the models burn out, from what exactly? abuse? i remember seeing somebody complain about getting weird emails of guys posting pics of their cock or saying they want to cum all over their feet

if you're running a site that is designed to turn men on, shouldn't that be a flattering response? not that i would ever do that myself

Running a site that is reliable, with consistent material is just plain hard work, and I know some girls start sites to have fun and make a bit of money on the side, but then their sites become more of a job, and that can wear anyone down; I speak from personal experience.

As for models getting mistreated; it's relatively rare, but all it takes is one crazy knucklehead with an ax to grind, to make a model crazy. There is an individual who for some reason, likes to send me really abusive notes about Dee

I'm not sure what his beef is, but maybe he has no other way to communicate with her 'cause I get the most hostile emails from him, calling her every name in the book. Dee happens to be a good friend of mine, so it's hard not to take it personally. I can't imagine that she's the only Internet model that is the subject of such vile abuse.
