Michel Gingras claims to be the “president and janitor” of Human Communications, Inc. Since 1997, Michel, on a normal day, will cut massive video deals or lay out the design of a website, and then he’ll “empty the trash.” All joking aside, working in the online adult business since 1996 for Michel has taught him that “wearing many hats is the trademark of this new economy.”

According to Michel, his company is the world’s first adult site to push the use of full motion, full audio banners.Michel Gingras claims to be the “president and janitor” of Human Communications, Inc. Since 1997, Michel, on a normal day, will cut massive video deals or lay out the design of a website, and then he’ll “empty the trash.” All joking aside, working in the online adult business since 1996 for Michel has taught him that “wearing many hats is the trademark of this new economy.”

According to Michel, his company is the world’s first adult site to push the use of full motion, full audio banners. Michel says, “We believe that as people become more and more bored of ‘normal’ pictures and low quality video stream porn sites, they will seek more high quality video. UltraCash, with it’s flagship video centric site pornvillage.com , is poised to be the leader in this porn paradigm shift.”

Let’s read more about this jack of all trades:
YNOT: How did you get involved initially in the world of adult online?
Michel: I wanted to pay back my student loan, which I did rather quickly. I walked into the student bank with $30,000 cash and just slapped it down. I even felt compelled to say that I was not selling drugs. I didn’t mention that pictures of double penetrations on ultrahardcore.com paved the way for my success.

YNOT: What type of work were you doing, if any, before you started in the biz ?
Michel: I was fresh out of college with a Bachelor in Education. I had a major in Geography and I minored in Philosophy.

YNOT: Where did you begin gathering info about the business and when did you get your start?
Michel: When I was 8 years old, I found my father’s stash of Playboys. I never stopped learning about porn since then. Later, with two partners, I presided over the company that created Dirty Bird, one of the world’s first pay sites. I believe we were the third site to operate a per click system.

YNOT: Give us your thoughts on how easy or difficult it was for you to get started.
Michel: Well, I maxed my credit cards and worked up to 18 hours a day 7 days a week. Two years later, my company was taking in 10 million dollars a year.

YNOT: Where do you see yourself in one year? Five years?
Michel: In one year, I think the world will know that pornvillage.com and it’s individual sites are among the best. At a minimum, I truly hope that webmasters will come to understand that our 50% partnership is a full on partnership that, because of our experience running adult sites, will bring them more money than with any other other site. In five years? That’s like asking what will be my next reincarnation! Five years is more than a lifetime in this business for many. I’ll just say that I hope to be happy and I hope that I’ll have made a lot of people happy!

YNOT: If you had one bit advice you could offer new webmasters, what would it be?
Michel: Get in touch with me personally! We truly enter into one on one, long-term partnerships with our webmasters, and are here to do what’s necessary for both our success. We treat all our webmasters as equals, but also as unique business people that may have specific needs that we can satisfy just for them.
