Osris, what is the URL to Gothic Links?

So long as you are linking to a hub type site that is only promoting your pay sites, you will be okay. Take a look of some of Outback Cash's HFS sites for a good example.

On the other hand, if you link to something like http://www.gothiclinks.com then you got a problem. In this thread - http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...ad.php?t=12047 - DangerDave said.

Another thing to consider in using an outside link. Even though the LL has a protential to earn money from listing your HFS, you will want to comply with the LL's rules. In so doing keep in mind that your link to a Gothic Links list will use up one of your three outgoing links.

Great thread Linkster. I like the informative threads.
This will help my designer to make better FHS

Sweet, I've only known of sponsor hosted TGPs. Didn't know there were any Sponsor Hosted Links Lists. Now I'm going to look like a copy cat..


Chop Smith, it wouldn't be on the free hosted sites themselves, those will be recip free. What we're thinking of doing, if my partner and I can come to an agreement on it, is place a small, non-intrusive text link at the bottom of our paysites.. Like how some sponsor have a big mailer box, instead of something like that which takes traffic/sales away from the webmaster it would include their linking code, as Greenguy mentioned in the post: linkslist.com/?2356 That way you'll get credit for everything listed..


I'm not associated with gothiclinks.com, I'll have to read the thread entirely to see what happened with them.

The domain I'm considering using for it is http://www.gothsociety.com
