It is your responsibility to read each site's rules, surf them a bit and figure out what they actually list instead of ignoring it all because you think that your page is special or different or somehow better even though you are fully aware of your own inexperience. What you don't realize is that the current rules (no quotes necessary), whether you agree with them or not, actually give you a ton of advertising area before you hand-away the free porn.

Out of the links I posted, does one make you want to visit the sponsor more than the other? If I'm getting unique visits, I would think eventually that person will tire of the preview. If I wanted to give porn away, then I would just buy a membership myself and start posting a bunch of free movies which is kind of what spankwire does... but I don't think the guy running spankwire is giving it away even though it sort of seems like he is.... I don't know... I don't really understand sites like spankwire.

Am feeling a bit beat on right now... I'm nice. Please don't beat on me....

I am not beating on you and I have no intention of beating on you. I don't beat on newbies or other people for making honest mistakes or even blatantly disagreeing with me. I'm nice too - most people here are. My purpose here is to teach you how to do this correctly. That way, you make sales and you don't get yourself banned from link lists because you are submitting pages that they'd never list.

The thumbs on your galleries don't even make me want to watch the movies, let alone check out the tour. They're crap, and quite possibly make the surfer assume that the clips - and perhaps all of that sponsor's content - are crap too.

But you also look at it every single day. I'm also still testing different sponsors but I've been digging through the freepages and maybe we're the lowest of the low but there's far worse crap than mine. There are the sponsors free pages which I can duplicate but I thought the idea was to not duplicate their pages? Am not arguing. Only trying to understand...

I do read the rules. Not everyone says your freesite should have one, two, three pages. Some do. Some don't. Some say that but then they decided they like mine. C'mon. I hardly think mine is better. It's just mine. I wouldn't even say it's different. It's a free page, with porn and recips. That's it. It's a link that can or cannot be given to someone's patrons. That's all. And as far as advertising goes, I'd have to see hard numbers on those extra pages. My own, lame experience in the world of advertising would say the ROI is very low for those.... and I'm not being sarcastic... People still advertise in newspapers but the numbers aren't there. It's a waste but people still do it.... I would tell people, don't do it. If you're not going to buy TV time, then do direct mail. NO- that's stupid they would say. whatever. I go by the numbers and the numbers always always won out. Direct always stomped on newspaper but newspaper was the norm, so some just thought they had to stick with it.
