This is the blog written by ro89 administrator. Ro89 is a site started with 7$ almost 3 years ago.
Since then it was a collection of youtube music videos, sexy youtube music videos and after a clip with some huge tits got some traffic I began hosting some sexy/porno clips. 100+ shared hosting accounts later my hosting provider finally had enought with me and the 3TB/day bandwidth my site consumed and gave me 2 weeks to pack the shit and go. I then moved to dedicated unmetered servers… costing two times more then what the site produced I moved fast to secure a loan and then quit my job :).
Very old softcore search @2007
I spent the next couple of weeks working on the new ro89 – a porn search engine. The new site was ready 2 weeks after I ran out of money to pay the bills but just in time to not lose all the people. The search index was running from a AMD x2 and my personal laptop (I literally had my laptop installed as a server till I managed to buy all the hardware needed).
ro89 V2 was a back-end rewrite for scalability, the site scales wery good now and is already using more then 10 cores/query to process your request.
now – the site expenses are bigger then the income but I am determined to keep it clean of intrusive ads and to try to get the index a lot bigger.
