New here...question about recips to link lists

[Preacher]

Yeah you can put 18, as long as it doesn't look like crap.

My suggestion is to build your own custom recip table -- matching fonts and colors -- and you'll have very little trouble getting 18 of them to look good.

Good luck.

There have been a few threads on the subject...the consensus seems to be up to 20 recips is acceptable.

As Preacher mentioned...be sure to keep them neat and tidy if you're going to delve into those larger recip tables though

Believe it or not, I've seen a four recip table that looked like crap before. Sometimes it's not about the numbers, but more about common sense in design and aesthetics.

Hi And thanks for the quick reply
When you say a custom recip table i am not sure i know what you mean
It is true that most link lists i have seen want a different recip button depending on the niche you are submitting to right? So If i am building a different niche every day of the week (for example) i need to get all the recips buttons for each niche and then make a custom table for each niche??
Sorry to sound crazy but i am pretty new to the free site thing so i am trying to do it right and keep everyone happy and get listed
Thanks again for your help and your time

You're kinda asking two different questions here.

1) If you are building in different niches, most linklists require a category recip (like teen or oral) to be used. Therefore using custom or standard recips you will need to build different recip tables for each niche you are going to submit. But once you have them built you can re-use them.

2) In a custom recip table, you go through the recips we offer, and you strip out all the tables and font settings until you just have the url, anchor text and title text left. Then you give each recip the same font and general layout. The easiest way to do that is with css. You'd still need to build multiple tables to handle multiple categories.

I hope this help explains it, if not, send me a pm and I can send you an example of a custom recip table versus a generic one.
