Looking on the web and at dvd releases i was wondering who really makes the serious money in the UK porn industry???

Can anyone point out the serious players????

EMPEROR

At a guess I'd say Omar probably makes the most, but just because he's the most well known. I'd assume that however much the UK producers make it pales in comparison to how much the yanks make.

I saw a pole recently that had disanto topping it...

I would say Disanto is doing the most at minute, have you seen how many web updates and dvds they are knocking out...

Disanto/Anjali have to be very high on the list i would have thought, not just due to the amount of content they put out, but due to the quality of it, which must keep people returning for more. I mean out of the last years subscriptions to there sites, i have probably seen 1-2 scenes i havent enjoyed (out of 100's)........just look at the quality of the girls in each scene, every one is a stunner.

I think it's fairly well known that Lady Sonia's site earns more than everyone else and not just a bit more either - she's well out in front.

You say so Alex but how reliable is your information? 'It's fairly well known...' can you say such a thing without access to re turnover etc from Lady Sonia and from other websites ?

Anyway, I don't think a discussion about who is making the most money is particularly useful..... I would think that most people just get on with their own 'gig' and are delighted if they can make some kind of living from it. Yes, there may be people who are more ambitious than that, but they're probably in a minority.... I don't claim to be an expert... what do others think ?

Whoever owns the ADULTWORK Site Must be absolutely coining it in the amount of money swilling about on it - if anyone had a half a brain they would copy it and start a US version.

And no Tax to pay either being a Belize registered company.......

Think I read it on this board once by someone who seemed to know what he was talking about. Said it was no contest - Lady Sonia utterly trounces everyone else.

This won't tell you who makes the most money, but if you visit this site and type in a domain name it will give you an overall web popularity ranking. The most popular site on the web would be number 1 in the rankings for example, and then the ratings go down from there. The lower the number the better, and out of literally billions of current websites I think this site indexes the top 5 million or so, overall. The rankings change every few days, but if you are a site developer (or just interested in general) this is a useful tool.

Visit and then click the tab that says "Traffic Rankings" at the top of the page. Then type in the domain name you are curious about and see where it currently stands.

If you have a site that sells advertising or offers an affiliate program a high Alexa rating is obviously desireable.

I agree with "Curious" - AdultWork.co.uk is probably doing very very well. It has an Alexa rating of under 6,000 which is quite impressive! I would start a similar site here in the US in a second, but the laws are different here with regards to escorting. A similar site would raise legal flags here in the states, and the owner would be probably be charged with "aiding and abetting prostitution" which is (unfortunately) a crime here.

Thanks,
