I've evaluated and re-evaluated my reciprocal setup 3-4 times now...and its always painful. Making sites that meet the requirements of 20-30 link lists is difficult hehe...However, for the most part, you'll find you end up with something like this:
- no pics on html pages and no more than 3 outgoing links per page
- no blind links, consoles, illegal shite, misleading ENTER links on index page, including banners
- clean navigation through 1 index page, 1 main page and 2 gallery pages, each having at least 10 pics on it, but likely no more than 16
- no massive amounts of 20 lines of text links, no banners that look like thumbs
- LL owner can access your site by omitting anything after the final slash...ie:
http://dom1.com/porn-site/ is the same page as the one you submitted as
http://dom1.com/porn-site/index.html.
I *always* check google and yahoo to see who is up there in the rankings...because they are gonna have the best quality traffic. Every now and then you'll see a link list that SUCKS, but it is first page google for a niche that you do a lot of work on - great...have an interchange slot on a recip table...I have a specific site for chubby/granny/anime for these reasons.
Another thing I like is link lists that ROTATE their links each build....I dont care if its a random sort, alpha sort starting at a variable letter or rev alpha sort starting at a sepcific letter - so long as you get CONTINUING traffic. Because the alternative....
Oh yeah, great...I get listed on huge-link-listA.com who doesn't rotate their links...wow look at all those hits from bookmarkers who have huge-link-listA.com/new.html bookmarked with the title "
Why buy porn?"....and inside 4 weeks my site will NEVER see the light of day, because its on mature-porn12.html - yes, page 12 - fuck that
The only peeps who make it that far in are those TRAWLING for free porn...yep, great traffic there.
Hope this helps a lil
