($earned)/($hosting fee + etc...) ratio

[terraxxxcom]

I am a little newbie in adult business and would like to ask everybody about ratio beetween
how much you earn and how much you investing in business. I am curently running free hosting project - and my ratio is about 1.2/1

This mean if I will earn $120 - I should pay $100 for bandwidth.

Also if you have a better ratio (I am sure you have) please tell you type of business - CJ/TGP/AVS etc...

Thanks in advance...

Thanks Sandy,

You are going better then me ;)
But I am expected about 5 to 1.
So 2/1 results like in real biz.

Looks like hosting fees is very critical...
So I probably should work about lowering my bandwidth usage...

I use free hosting, stollen content, scripts and programs

my ratio 0:everything

tgp, FS, AVS

say 1:10 if using licensed content, pay hosting and my own PHP scripts.

And I am saved from headaches when being redirected from free hosting or kicked off due to using stolen content ;)

This is for TGP gallery buiding.

I'd say your ratio sucks big time, but it's still better than putting the money in bank account...

Of course I meant 10/1 ratio, from 1 buck invested 10 bucks made, if it was reversed I would already hang from some ceiling :D
