Jel, as we discussed it on previous occasions, I use a software that bulk-multiplies the indexes, at the same time creating folders for each of them. Start making these by hand isn't a option for me right now. Nor is start coding a new script for this task worthwile atm. Also, I like treating everybody the same, no matter how big or small they are. I mostly appreciate those which are willing to discuss any problem/question you might have. If he's got time for me, hell yeah I'm gonna have time to create my sites the way he'd like them. Even if they're not that great and have a minimal set of rules, I'll treat them just the way I tread everyone else. It's just a personal oppinion about life I have in general, not only about the .net stuff. Not to mention in this case that they might and some of them will grow, (but even if they don't) the upstanding owners WILL appreciate your attitude towards their linklist and WILL return the same proffessional curtesy to you. And to me, a friend gained or a good business associate is way more important then 1, 10, or 100 signups.

Now Jel, let me pick your post apart, cuz I didn't get most of it *sad* (btw, you should be receiving an email too shortly)

1. warning page the same as the true index - meaning the warning page doesn't have to be called index.htm, but could be called warning.htm or smth like that, right?

2. I don't really grasp the concept of dorway pages in this case. Is it the thing I mentioned in my last post?

3. make 40 sets of unique pages would need too much time. Once I have a list of about 5-8 indexes (around 60-100 LLs I'll be submiting to) that'll work.

4. for you scheme, didn't you mean keyphrase1 keyphrase 2 etc? do you have the same keyphrase on the index/main/galleries on each folder or not? do you have the same keyphrase for the index in one folder and the index in the other one? And so on, same for main, galleries?

5. keyphrase.html x however many I need which serve as the warning page to those LLs that accept them, all leading to the mainpage in folder 1 - I'm clueless on what you mean by this.

Some more questions:

Are 16 recips/index too many? Are there any LL owners that would mind?

Moving on, some more questions:

Would making all the recips look the same upset anyone? Of course, keeping the original text / links. I know everybody's saying it's ok, but has any of you had an experience where the LL owner said ok, but suddenly stopped listing your sites after you did that? I would hope not... but you never know.

And one final VERY IMPORTANT question: I understand some of the smaller ll's traffic is just not worth it. But they do list me, and so giving that precious backlink. And they are spidered by se bots just like every other LL out there, so my question is: won't the SE traffic be worthwile, even if they don't send you noticeable traffic from their own source?

Dammit, I really need some good SE tutorials, but the ones I've been able to find were yapping about how importent meta keywords was, and I wouldn't want spending time learning out of date stuff. Any good SEO tutorials/links from anyone? Anyone at all?

I'm also hoping some more people will jump in this thread, and let us know their oppinion on these matters. I really dislike those who are like "hehe, I know, but I ain't telling" guys, tho it's their right to be like that. Anywaaaays, let's hope some helpfull folks will see this thread and let us know what's their take on it.
