Well, in general, the more popular the sponsor, the more likely that the free sponsor content has been seen so many times by the linklist reviewers that they don't want any more sites built with it.

One way to try to figure out if your content is overexposed is to go to the appropriate category at greenguys, and just go down the list of freesites checking to see what content they are using. If you see the same content you are using more than once, maybe twice, you should consider picking some other content.

Especially if they have a "NEW" site listed with that content.

And especially if you are a new submitter.

Looking at the other freesites you'll be competing with for sales can teach you a lot, so you get double benefit by looking at the existing freesites and content in your chosen category.

If you are just starting out, it can be a good idea to pick a smaller, less-often-seen sponsor - the content is fresher, the sponsor is fresher, you get listed a bit easier.

But, popular sponsors are usually popular because they make decent sales - less-common sponsors sometimes just don't make the sales you'd like to see. Then again, sometimes they do better, because you're not competing with 20 other people for the sale.
