depends on who, and what they are doing and for who. really, too many variables to just give a ball park.

some as low as around 500 a scene, add another hundred or 2 for anal. some girls is in the thousands a scene. contracts and such make things different. but generally, its by the scene.

how about these "pro-am" sites. Such as Haleywilde, Yummymama, Naughtyallie...etc...do they make a lot?

i know for a fact allie (a personal favourite of mine) has a day job. i dont think she makes as much as ud think.

For some reason, I see Allie doing the site because she enjoys it, not so much for income. She just comes across this way.
 
Lisa Ann made $3000 off of Who's Naylin' Paylin?, according to the ad listing. Violet Blue said that that amount was "a lot" compared to industry averages.

good for you seeing that. i totally agree. shes a swinger. a real one. this is just fun for her.
 
I would say big time starlets such as Lexi make 500 on up per pop... Nothing below that. Most pornstars are smart to sign a contract with a big company so they don't burn out.
 
For anybody to make any kind of money in it they either have to be the type of person that does a insane amount of scenes a year (And probably have very few limitations on what they are willing to do. That means they might have to do anal, d/p, gangbangs, interracial, or other dumb things if they want to or not. Most people can do only so many scenes before they get burnt out or oversaturated anyway.) or have a contract. Sometimes if a performer is in the very upper tier they can have their own website that is successful, but for every one of those there is countless others that don't even make that much money off of that. It's even worse in the industry right now as there is less money to go around and a lot of the performers have to accept payments that are only a fraction of what they were a few years ago. Most of the hardcore performers get most of their money either escorting on the side, or feature dancing at strip clubs. All of that is even worse considering staggering amount of people in the industry that blow their money almost as soon as they get it either because of drugs, or they just don't plan ahead. A career in the industry is also very short for all but a small percentage so it's not like they are making that money for decades. A lot of people don't even last 6 months. Like a lot of things in life, porn isn't really the pathway to riches for the performers like some people make it out to be unless your lucky.
 
Well the good thing about the current state of the industry is that the low budget people trying to make it in the businessaren't going to be able to make it with how the economy is going in America.
 
A woman makes $100,000 to $250,000 at the end of the year." and "Girls can easily make 100K-250K per year, plus stuff on the side like strip shows and appearances. actresses make: Blowjobs: $200-$400,Straight sex: $400-$1200, Anal sex: $900-$1500, Double Penetration: $1200-$1600, Double anal: $2000. -wikipedia

How Much Do Porn Stars Make?
In a comment on the last entry, blog-lover walken asked how much girls make for various types of scenes these days. To get the answer, I talked to Frank Lopez, the owner of various porn businesses and general in-the-know guy. He told me that the rates for new girls are as follows:

Blowjobs: $200-$400
Straight sex: $400-$1200
Anal sex: $900-$1500
Double Penetration: $1200-$1600
Double anal: $2000
For niche stuff like midgets or trannies, the girls generally get 15% extra.

Girls like Hillary Scott who’ve been in the business a while make about the same, but more toward the higher end of the scale. But according to Frank, Hillary in particular liked to work, so her rates probably went down. A bigger star like Amy Ried or Eva Angelina makes “way too much”. Frank said that “girls like that have inflated rates because they don’t like to work as much as, say, a Hillary who loved to get nasty 24-7″. I take that to mean that they make the high end or just above the high end of the scale laid out above.

There you have it. Straight from the horse’s mouth, so to speak.

Performer rates per scene (Men)

Men are paid based on performance abilities + appearance. Pay rates don't usually differ between anal + vaginal sex scenes.
Solo Masturbation (shot by gay companies mostly) = $100-300
Blowjob = $100-300
Boy/Girl = $200-800

I agree. I believe this girl really loves sex and enjoys fucking on film. You can just sense it when compared to paid models, hot, but not as genuine as Allie.
 
They make money????? I thought it was all about the sex :(
 
how much do you think a newbie like Alura Jenson with her huge tits does make?

This is pretty much the best answer you're going to get. It varies depending on who the girl is working for, whether it's amateur, whether it's for a bigger website like SexArt, and what her limitations are. It also depends on how often and how many scenes she shoots. But the rates shown in the above post are pretty much as accurate as you're gonna get.

As far as how big her boobs are, how attractive she is, how nice of an ass she has, etc. That doesn't really factor in like you think it does. Sure, if you're one of the most gorgeous women out there, like, say, if Megan Fox were to do a scene, she'd get paid thousands upon thousands. Because she's huge, she's a big deal. But someone who is your average looker, or a little above average, it doesn't make much of a difference.

Now, when I was doing b/g videos and whatnot, if I remember correctly, it was $250 for a g/g, $250 for blowjobs, $500 for standard b/g, and if I would happen to do anal (which I didn't at the time) it would have been close to $1,000, and I believe I got $750 for b/b/g. It's not as much as you'd think. I did try a little escorting on the side. The other girls who did escorting with the same company got I believe $250 for one hour. But because I was only available so often (once a month for a few days), I got $350 for one hour and the guy booking the appointments didn't take a cut from me like he did with the other girls. Now, all of this wasn't high end or anything, this was borderline amateur, so those were all rates for that level of work. If I had gone to LA and shot videos for a bigger company, I'd have been paid at least double what he was paying me for the websites we shot for.

So to put that all in perspective, say I were to shoot... 5 b/g scenes a month. I'd make roughly $2500 per month. That's not very much. Though that is a lot more than I make at my day job. That's more than twice the amount of money I make per month at my day job.

Oh and the guys who I shot with didn't get paid at all to shoot the scenes with me. They were just in it for the fun.
