Yea, I don't think the recip table would fly either. But, for different reasons. The few surfers who do hit the recips are looking for more porn...they're going to hit the FSC site and click back immediately. There's not really enough room in a recip table to give any idea of what the FSC is about. If we're going to do this...let's do it right...TARGET the traffic to the FSC...at least try to get them the folks that 'might' be interested.
Oh, and while it's rare...I disagree with UW on the exit links...already stated why
However, I am a supporter of the FSC...as is evidenced by the prominent spot I gave them on the root of FPP
So, let's try to send them some targetted traffic that might actually be useful. To do my part, I'm willing to ignore a link to the FSC on entry pages. That way you can have a bit of explanatory text as to what the FSC is about...and why it's important. Don't know how many other link list owners will jump on board with this option. So, another possibility would be for free site builders to give up one of their sponsor links on entry pages. Either of these options allows us to send the FSC not only linkage, but hopefully a few targetted surfers too.
A word of caution on some of the FSC banners. The first couple I checked were HUGE. The one I chose to use was over 80k for a standard sized banner. By removing half the frames, I got it down to about 40k. If anyone would like to use that banner, feel free to harvest it from the root of FPP
