In April 2003, I started with five picture sets from Ounique, a domain name, and a $50 host, which I quickly changed to a $25 host. So I think my initial investment was $250-300.

If you wanted to and you can produce websites your self, you really could get started in this business with nothing more than a domain name and a host. (Assuming you have Dreamweaver, Photoshop, or whatever software you need.) Put up a page called Big Cocks are Fun, fill it full of free hosted galleries and text links and build some free sites to start sending traffic to it.

If you can't build sites yourself, you'd better learn or you'll go broke paying people. And you'll be frustrated at the lack of control you have over your site. Everything you will want to do will be "hurry up and wait."
