AVS
(Adult Verification System):
An Adult Verification System (AVS) sets up a password protected entry
for web sites that do not want their web sites to be "publicly accessible"
to people under the age of 18. AVS systems benefit the webmasters by providing
them a free age verification service for their sites. AVS systems benefit
the surfer by issuing them an adult ID which allows them to access all
the participating sites with one password. By signing up with a age verification
system, you only have to verify your age once.
Banner

the page are normally blind links to sponsors and to other sites.

Dead Or Broken Link:

Dedicated Hosting:
Is when you host your site on a whole server, and you are the sole user
of this box, this is far superior to shared hosting of course because
then you know how much strain you are putting on the server. And most
importanly you don't own this server you lease it on a month to month
basis.

earn cash from exit traffic as well.

recurring fee they pay to remain a member.
Shaving:
Is where a sponsor pays you for less signups or hits then you actually
got. They basically change the info to read differently then what it should.
Semi-Dedicated
Hosting
An added twist, is when you share half a server or a quarter of a server,
generally the host limits the number of users on the server, some places
I have seen this as high as 6, and as low as 2. Of course this doesn't
mean that the server is going to perform any better
Sponsor Program:
A program that companies use in order to pay webmasters for sending signups
to their pay sites.
