As far as I can tell, nothing like that is even on the horizon. Which is too bad.

Context links would be a labor-intensive content strategy, rather than an easier to create structure strategy.

What I infer from your comment is that you think link structure strategies (small linklists being an example) are pretty much doomed in the new google. Which is close to my conclusion too, altho I wonder about combination linklists, small linklists with more content pages - which could out-profit a conventional small linklist.

Personally, I've been thinking that adult in general will be forced to return to a pre-google traffic-trading environment.

Trustrank and "the rich get richer" have hard implications for the small adult webmaster.

I agree, and I think it would be in everyone's best interest to just close down their submits.

Me, oh I'll keep mine open in protest, but I'm with the rest of you in principle!

My long-term strategy is to maintain a healthy diet and rigorous excercise and outlive Kit and Greenie!

One mainstream broker is automating it.

Small linklist owners will never win the catch up game by relying on old tactics, but they're far from doomed. In fact, newbies have an edge over older webmasters now because newbies are more open to change and thus quicker to adapt.

You see "studio.montserrat.edu/gd/old/lesbian-porn.html" ranking 5th for "lesbian porn", outranking LOR, smutgremlins, and hoes?

You think that url nailed 5th position for "lesbian porn" by collecting thousands of free site recips?
