If those spots were worth that much why wouldn't the tgp owner make a gallery themselves and just use that spot? Right...that's what I thought.

TGP's make their money off their traffic. It’s a numbers game. We all know that they don't convert or if they do they convert at such a high ratio. I've been surfing for about 6 years now and have never had to buy a membership to anything. Even when I was in college the word around campus was thehun or jjj's. Just think about it, there is so much free porn why would you ever want to pay for it. Even the exclusive sites like teen kelly, little april raven riley and so on.. give away to much. There are galleries out there where you can get the whole picture series or full length movie just by changing numbers in the URL for example:
http://mysite.com/11/milf.html
http://mysite.com/12/milf.html
http://mysite.com/13/milf.html

If the porn community as a whole would like to increase there revenue then just quite giving it away. If you walked into McDonald's and they gave you half of a big mac for free at the door..would you honestly go into the restaurant to the counter and buy the rest of it....odds are no.... (There is a term for this that I studied in college in my economics class but, I can't remember what it is)

Think about it…. why do you think the largest traffic porn sites out there are free ones.... Many tpg's brag about bookmark traffic... well hell yes, the surfers not stupid they are going to bookmark something where they get something for free. A surfer doesn't go to a free site thinking....what site can i join today...the surfer will find the free samples that will get him off and he is done..it's that simple.. with the number and quality of pics out there why pay for it.

Cyberdream I admit when I surf I have that same exact mentality. One time I signed up to porn dvd's 7 day free program to decide whether I promote them or not, and ended up downloading gigs (probably about 30+ gigs) worth of nicely encoded DVDs and cancelling on the 6th day.

Still, putting all the surfers into one box is equivalent to not filtering traffic at all, and as everyone keeps telling me, filtering is big in this biz.

Using hubs is a great way to do this. You can add links to toplists on your niche specific hubs.
