Hello, Newbie With A Few Questions

giamann · 2006-07-31, 08:33 PM

I'm not exactly sure but I think I just got a bashing...
My impression of a TGP was that it is a site with actual thumbnails of galleries posted on the main page. The thumbnail URL leads to the galleries. A link list to me is just that, a list of URL's in text form. So now I have to ask the question:

Does Joe Smut Surfer really care who the galleries are submitted by or who put them there? Just curious.

Thanks in advance!

Chris

Not even close to a bashing, just friendly advice.

Couple of definitions you need to learn: A TGP (Thumbnail Gallery Post) can also come in the form (quite counter-intuively) of text only TGP. Either way they list galleries (single page, 15-20 pics).

A Linklist lists freesites consisting of 4 pages (warning/main/2 gallery pages).

Joe Smut Surfer doesn't care who made/listed the sites, but the owners of TGPs/Linklists do.

giamann, you came in honestly. You didn't get bashed. You got honest answers.

A TGP links to galleries. That's pretty much it.

As far as what Joe Smut Surfer wants, TGP's care less about sales then a true link list. TGP's are about traffic. Link Lists are about selling porn.

Submitting to a TGP is about getting traffic.

Accepting submissions from a submitter is about listing galleries to keep the surfer coming back (keeping traffic) and getting traffic from other TGP's listing that gallery.

A true Link List, like Link O Rama, funnels traffic into niches. The surfer is given options, choices, to figure out what they're looking for. This makes sales much easier. Submitters are encouraged to be more sales savvy, and this makes sales much easier. Also, there are search engine bonuses to doing things that way.

EDIT: I did the tags wrong for linking to LOR. Had to fix it.
