Hi I am new here
 

I am new to creating freesites,
Is it ok if I ask questions here
and when I have them ready post
some samples of what I am planning
to submit?

That would be recommended - helps prevent some mistakes starting out - and welcome

Sure alterego, welcome.

Welcome to the board alterego! |waves|

I am just wondering is it allowed to
put a counter on the warning page
and / or can I link to my tgp sites
assuming I would hardlink to the linksites
on the warning pages from my tgp sites?
Any positive feedback is welcome.

hi, alterego

i think counters are not very welcome on free sites :( everyone suggests to watch server stats.

you can put links to your tgps and other sites, all such links are counted as a link to sponser and you should keep its number 3 or 4 (depends on a ll rules you submit to, i suggest you have 3 links per page max this way you will get listed everywhere) per page.

Your pages have very few sales text and links to sponsors on them (an average of 1 link on each page).

Example 1: on the index of this page http://www.sinnerscorner.com/freesit...le_submissive/ you've got 0 links to your sponsor, the index page is by far the most important sales page of your site because you have to try to get every surfer asap to your sponsor and the index page is the first opportunity to do so. Try to use your allowed 3 links per page to it's fullest potential on each page.

Example 2: on this page http://www.sinnerscorner.com/freesit...es1/index.html you got 10 images wrapped around 1 simple banner. Again, try to add some more text (links) poinyting to your sponsor. The clickthrough ratio on that page will be very low as it is now.

Just my $0.02

I would have to agree with Fonz. Most link lists allow you up to 3 ads per page. You should utilize that to sell your sponsor. Also would be nice to see a description of the site on the warning page which would help in targeting keywords for your niche or sponsor you are promoting and for SE and this gives the surfer a clue on what lies inside the site. SE loves text. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks for the usefull responses I will add
some more links to the next sites I make.

Question: does the whole block with linksite
links has to be visible on screen assuming
800 x 600 resolution?

Some of the bigger LL's will decline your site if it doesn't fits a 800x600 resolution

I made a new one and tried to use the
tips I got here.

why would you link a logo somewhere ?

you linked a picture on your main page to your paysite too.. uhmm

i think you can get a hard time getting
this site listed on most of link lists...

other then that your site looks good :)

Thanks for your comments. I did not submit it yet. I removed the
links on the logos ( I thought maybe
some surfrs would click on the text .... gallery 1 etc) and the one that
linked the big picture.


Is the link to my tgp on the index page
under the enter allowed on most LL's?

link on the logo is still there.. you should double check it.

next thing i would work on advertising.. you're not using all 3 allowed ad spots per page..

browse some other people free sites and what how they do it :)

Ah ok I removed the link on the
header and put a banner beneath it.

I know I can use 3 spots on each page
probably I will experiment with that more
on my new freesites.

I have been reading and "learning" a bit by browsing the board I have one burning question at the moment I see a lot of
topics like "why was my gallery rejected"
and answer like "it was rejected because of (some reason" do resubmit though after making the modifications.

I am just wondering as tgp owner what the other (LL owners / link check bots) which that freesite who is changing the warning page think thus changing a checksum (important for link bots maybe)
do to it will they blacklist it (automagically though the link bot)
review the *marked changed* listed galleries manually?

Tgps have link checking bots in order to make life simpler for owners they detect
changed source code and other nasty stufff and act automagically.

I know I am new to this but just wondering in this context like ok you have a banner up remove it and i will aprove you at MY LL what will the other LL
owners to which that freesite links to at its warning page do then?

My bots work automagically.

So most submitters will create a new
page call it indeximproved.html or
something like that and resubmit it
to the link list who rejected it but gave
instructions on how to improve it, in order
to escape being banned?


The LL site will then probably not receive traffic from the other sites listed on the
warning page as this is a one time adjustment or do I see it wrong here?

Hi alterego and welcome to GG&Jim's :)

Most places you can alter sites and not get kicked by a bot, as long as you stay within the rules. Hence you seeing those threads, adjustments being made, and everyone being happy :)
