Hey guys...and ladies...I have a friend from college that I've known for 20 years or so. She has some beautiful feet and I have had the pleasure of..."Playing' with over the years. She knows that I belong to a foot fetish website and that I'm kind of involved in the foot fetish seen. We had talked a few years ago about starting our own site. But, I never really looked into it. I suffer with a slight case of O.C.D. and doing so would probably consume too much of my life being that I work anywhere from 75-85 hours per week already...

So today she texted me and asked me how much money can be made from a foot fetish website. I told her that I didn't have a clue and that I would bring it to my "Foot Crew" to see what you guys had to say about it. Here are the questions that I have and thanks in advance family....

#1. How much money can be made
#2. How should she get started?
#3. Does anyone shoot in the Detroit area?

I would really like her to shoot a set with an established photographer and site first. I think the best part is that she is very pretty mixed race girl with some perfect feet AND SHE LOVES HER OWN FEET...I love that...

I have a few pics in my phone and I will upload a few shots to let you see what she is working with as soon as I upload them to my notebook. I'm not a computer wiz and I always have trouble when trying to size my pictures (as you can tell by my big ass avatar)

Same idea here. I could use some hardware suggestions too, right now not much video gear. Also need some suggestions for video software editing without being an IT tech!

1. If money is the only reason to do it don't bother as its not going to let allow you to quit your day job unless you are ddash. [Big Grin]

2. Shoot lots of pictures with a quality camera and share them for free on a few forums to get a good following and make friends with people there.

3. Don't know anything about Detroit photographers. However, there are a few in Chicago but that's close to 300 miles from you.

1) Depending on how hot she is, AND how nice her feet are; profits could extend at the opening of a site to between $500-800/month if it's popular and enough content is shared initially. If you were to branch out to add more models to the site and not have it exclusively HER..there's of course more potential.

2)Start taking pics, lots of them...in different scenes, outfits, shoes indoor and outdoor. Build your product and mold it to what YOU want to see, not necessarily what the standard is for websites. If you add different girls on there, make sure you have them sign releases for their photos and check for valid I.D.

3)Not that I know of..I am out west. But Detroit mild yield some hot girls, who knows. [Cheers]

Thanks guys...I will post some pics very soon...I don't think she is trying to live off of it but I guess any money is better than no money......Well, she actually texted me and said that its a hobby but she would love to get paid to do what she loves..Thanks for the tips...
She's hot...She always was not sure of her exact mixture of races...But she was always super hot and her feet are very nice AND MY STANDARDS ARE PRETTY HIGH...I used to call them..THE FLAWLESS ONES..She's fun

Ok guys, i've been out of town for a week or so and my mobile hotspot was inoperable...Here are a few pics of my friend from college...

I know the shots are boring because she's taking them herself AND IT'S A DAMNED CAMERA PHONE...So that's why we don't have sole shots...But I tried to give you "Sole Lovers" a lil peek with the instep side shot...I've had some wonderful times with these beauties...lmao


And please, chime in with a comment, one of those icons (Instant Graemlin) or anything if you like her feet...I'm sure that will inspire her to provide more "Manual" material for you guys...Lmmfao...

She does have some pretty feet man,,, But your question is kinda like asking "how much money can be made if I open a pizzeria"?

There's so many variables. Starting with what are your goals and how much time and effort are you willing to commit?

My cheap opinion is with all the free stuff out there these days it's probably tough sledding to start a site and expect to see "significant" returns.
Now if you want to produce some content and market a little C4S site, perhaps you can make a little side coin, and have a shit load of fun with her feet in the meantime.

This is actually a very common thread starting question on here. I think sometimes people don't realize how much work and dedication goes into operating and maintaining a successful site.

Good luck though my man and thanks for sharing her pics.

Love her toes. That Pedi she's rockin' there is increadable. I think in terms of a site, if you've got a college age beauty at your disposal you would have more success with full body shots. I think it sort of allows the viewer to kind of "connect" with the woman a little bit and become a fan of her, not just her feet. I love browsing feet pics only on here and online and whatnot but I've only ever joined sites or bought clips of women I became a "fan" of so to speak. Although I haven't joined any sites or bought any clips since I got married a couple of years ago with a 2nd child on the go now, there's not as much disposable income for that kind of stuff as there was like 5 and especially 10 years ago. (Oh I'm lying, I did buy like 2 clips in the last 3 years, Mommie Dearest ballbusting Andy and Sweet Cherry Feet and Twisted Toes tramling some dude.) I used to by a shit ton of clips and joined a few sites but in each instance, I had become a fan of the girl first through free content or personal interaction and/or conversation.

If I were going to join a site today it would likely be lala's site because she's not only got extremely hot feet but she's so cool and right on, that I would really love to support what she's doing and I know that I'd be getting my money's worth because I'm familiar with her work. If I were to buy clips, they'd likely be Sassafras's clips for the very same reasons. I think the more you can get her involved from head to toes, into the conversations and interaction, the easier it is to build fans and create buzz. I may be wrong, but that's always what would make me take the next step in going from enjoying a preview clip to paying for the full version.

Drunk_24-7 is on point. There have been sites of patronized due in part because I liked the photog or the model! Tell her to hang out and post pics. Chat and interact.

I've gotten a taste of what it's like to produce content and make some of it available for sale. It's a lot of work, but fun work. We aren't doing it for the money really but a little extra coin on the side to offset pedicure costs and whatnot is nice. The real money seems to be in footjobs and other adult material. Like someone else said, there is so much free material out there that most people won't consider paying for clips, or especially image sets, if they are PG13.

Having said that, my advice would be to be patient and slowly build up a fan base. Give away a bunch of free material and get some followers. Then when you make some items available for sale there is a better chance one of those fans will be intrigued and throw you a few bones for the premium stuff. That's how I see it.

But get ready for some work. Unless you half ass it, making quality videos and photo sets takes time. You gotta have a passion for it. If I could quit my day job and make a living doing it I would! That'll never happen.
