Building a website to share adult images.

[Missink]

Hey everyone,


I’m thinking about making a website for a specific type of images, but I’m not sure how to set up the backend.


Does anyone know how to do it? Should I use something like WordPress or build it from the ground up? I feel like WordPress can be a bit too complicated, but it helps manage the content easily.


I don’t want to spend too much on the project, just the cost of the domain name.


Thanks for reading!

Take a look at KVS, which stands for Kernel Video Sharing. It’s a really good tool for running video websites.

You could use a Booru-style system that you host yourself. It works kind of like Gelbooru or Danbooru and is easy to set up and use right away.

You can make a website without writing code and link it to an API using a tool like Make.com. This lets you use AI image tools in an easy way.

Yeah you can use AI tools pretty easy if you will listen to Suruct, there are plenty nice Ai tools which can be connected to your site, thanks to the good API

From what I know, they have not been letting any new people join, and it has been that way for some time. Is that correct?

Sadly, WordPress or other website builders probably aren’t the right choice for this. If it were me, I would think about making the site from the ground up instead.

Did you take a look at WP Script yet?

It may have most of the features you need, but I don’t really like WordPress sites with a very large number of pages, especially if you are thinking about growing the site later. Yes, you can make small improvements to help it run better. But I would rather build a cleaner solution myself instead of adding 90+ plugins. I would only use that many plugins if I was in a rush and needed to launch the site fast.

For a small adult photo site, using something like WordPress with a few helpful add-ons can save you lots of time and work, especially if you don’t want to spend much money. It may feel a little stiff at times, but it makes posting and managing content much simpler, and it can grow as your site grows.


If you know a lot about coding and want total control, building it from scratch could be a good choice. Just remember, it will take more time in the beginning. Starting with WordPress can be a smart way to try out your idea first before putting in too much time or cash.
