This is pretty good too and goes along with what Ive said on this board for YEARS....

How much respect the competitors the German porn mogul, but fear can be seen in the end of January, "Hard Rock Hotel" in Las Vegas. The industry exhibition "Internext" has Thylmann invited to a lecture. The room is packed. The key figures of the U.S. porn industry have come. It's a rare public appearance of Manwin leaders. On the Internet there is a video recording.

In hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans Thylmann sitting next to a laptop on the table and dangling their legs. Obviously he's Zuckerberg and others as a model. But the innocent impression is deceptive. It speaks of the wolf, and listen to the lambs.

Thylmann strikes a familiar tone. He says he wants to do away with the conspiracy theories. He was not the "bad person", as some believe. Then he tells his version of the rise. Even with 18 years he had company, was once went bankrupt, learned from it. End of the 90s he developed as a freelance programmer with two partners, a software for the porn industry: "Next-Generation Affiliate Tracking Software", or "NATS".

Thylmann was software for "ultimate insider"

Even then, established the business model works on the Manwin: porn producers offer their goods on payment sites. To attract as many customers as they give free preview galleries and videos of appetite. Any site owner can use that content in its sole discretion on their own pages. The site owners put in return a link back to porn paysite. The deal: porn producers to pay the website owner a bonus for every new subscription customers, via its link takes their payment page.

Quite anarchic creates a huge network of sites, the operators want cash up only by forwarding. They are called affiliates. Thylmanns new software "NATS" helps to measure the pay site operators, flush back which clips and which affiliates the most traffic. The software determines what the customer is selling well and what is not.

The program was a huge success. It is the standard in the online adult industry. Thylmann simultaneously learns how the industry works, because he not only sells the software, but also waits. "He was the ultimate insider," says a German porn entrepreneur.

Thylmann 2006 sold his shares in the company for a seven-figure sum, as industry insiders estimate. So he comes to his starting capital. Instead of writing programs, Fabian Thylmann now rising even into the business with the sites. He buys the German Amateursexportale My Dirty Hobby and Privatamateure and assumes apparently also loans.
