Buying a porn site is a profitable opportunity for those looking to be successful in the adult industry. 

But how do you buy a porn site? In this article, Adult Site Broker will walk you through the process, from choosing your niche and picking a business model that suits you to the process of making an offer and buying a porn site. 

Why Buy a Porn Site 

With the adult industry estimated at $97 billion, and the majority of that coming from the revenue generated from porn sites, buying a porn site opens up the opportunity to generate income quickly and via multiple avenues, such as ad-zones, memberships and even commission from models and affiliate programs alike. 

However, knowing where to start can be tricky; whether you have been in the industry for a while or are new to the industry, identifying the porn site you want to buy can be a tricky endeavor when you do it alone. The following section will discuss where to start and why working with an adult site broker can make the process easier.  

Where To Start? 

So where do you start when buying a porn site? Firstly, understanding the legal requirements of your country is crucial; certain countries may have specific legislation prohibiting certain types of content, so making sure you know what you can and can’t do legally is beneficial. 

Secondly, choosing a niche can help to set you apart from the thousands of porn websites that are already in operation. From free porn sites offering thousands of clips from different genres to niche porn sites that focus on specific types of sex acts, ethnicities, sexualities, and even body types. Thinking about the content you want to focus on will help you to find the perfect porn site for you. And choose something you enjoy. It will make your work a lot more fun and more likely lead to success.

Once you have chosen your niche,  you must decide on your business model, which can help you determine how you wish to earn revenue. Some of the popular business models for porn sites are: 

Porn Tube Sites: These allow you to export clips from affiliate partners, making it cost-effective; there is also the opportunity to generate revenue from multiple income streams, including affiliate commissions, selling links, premium memberships, and ads. 

Adult Webcam Sites: Unlike adult tube sites, adult webcam sites show live models performing for an audience. These sites allow you to generate revenue via commission from the live models performing on your site. 

Fan Sites: Subscription-based porn sites like OnlyFans, allows you to earn revenue from the commissions of content creators who upload and monetize their content.  

Membership Sites (or paysites): This is the oldest model in the business, but still very successful. Paysites have different niches and many sub-niches. It allows you to specialize in a niche to give your customers exactly what they want.

To do this, invest in market research and look at what the current market trends are, what types of porn has become the most popular or have become in demand, what your competitors are doing, and monetization opportunities. This will allow you to narrow down your search and find a porn site that suits your needs. 

What To Do When You Find a Porn Site to Buy? 

Once you have found a porn site that you would like to make an offer on, doing your due diligence should always be a priority, this allows you to verify if the site meets legal requirements as well as determining its financial health and the website’s health including revenue, traffic, and user engagement, intellectual property and even a technical assessment. This allows you to understand the overall health, marketplace, and revenue opportunities for your potential new porn site.

If you find that your due diligence comes back positive, you can start the process of buying your new porn site and make an offer. 

The Adult Site Broker Process of Buying A Porn Site

At Adult Site Broker, we can help you with the buying process, overseeing the search, offer, and even drawing up the letters of internet, as well as the escrow process and the transfer of funds and property.  

We start by assessing your business’s needs and working to find an established website in your price range that will attract visitors and earn you money, no matter what type of porn site you’re looking for. We then present opportunities to you based on your budget. Once you have found the site you want to buy, we will send out your offer, and if a seller accepts it, we will draw up the Letter of Intent (LOI) and negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get the most out of your money. 

Once that has been done, and the attorneys have drawn up the sales agreement and signed it, an escrow will be opened. After escrow receives the funds and the domains involved in the sale, the deal is consummated, and the escrow closes. The seller gets their funds, and you, the buyer, will be the owner of a porn site.

Conclusion

The process of buying a porn website should be one you take with care instead of rushing into the decision. For those new to the industry, finding and contacting potential sellers can be frustrating, as many websites do not offer the owners’ contact information, nor is there a directory you can quickly skim through. 

Although many sellers use marketplaces, working with a certified adult site broker can simplify this process; simply tell them what you are looking for and your budget, and let them do all the work, helping you find the perfect porn site for you and your business model needs. 

Working with Adult Site Broker offers you over 20 years of experience, a database of over 9000 industry professionals, and a dedicated team who will find you the porn website of your dreams. Contact us today or check out our listings page to see what porn sites we currently have available.
