My suggestion would actually be to work with only one niche for the time being with your site design. Focus on that niche, there is always something to be done to it. You'll get to know traffic streams better and determine what works and what doesn't before you have multiple niches to play with. Even if you keep all the other niche pages up, I'd still put most of your effort into the niche you know best or would like to market first.

Actually that's not bad for a new fake tgp, but I don't even look at hits. Look at visits, hits are not a valid indicator of how many people are visiting your site, because one visit to my site can rack up like 40 or more hits.

Don't look at my linklist for an example, it's a completely different beast. This is a fake tgp: http://www.depravedcumplay.com/

I can pick on it because it is my own. Why a fake tgp, because it's easy for me to set up on ther root of a domain and just sit there until I have the time to make it into something worthwhile. When I do upgrade it, the root will already be indexed by the search engines and I will already have an existing traffic flow to the new property I place on it.

A fake TGP just means that it is a thumbnail gallery but only filled with sponsor galleries. A real tgp would take submissions.

As for a thumbnail linklist, well I've heard that idea a couple of times. I have some personal issues with the idea so I don't think I would ever run one, but I don't want to step on other peoples toes.

Depends. Some traffic I get from hardlink trades, some from search engines and for the linklist in particular some from the reciprical links on the freesites. Each porn medium is a different beast. My blog traffic is different then my linklist traffic which is different then my fake tgp traffic.

As for numbers, you'll find most webmasters aren't really open about their traffic numbers, it's just part of the game we play. Stick around, gain some reputation as a trustable partner/submitter/webmaster and you'll find people will open up about things like traffic numbers and income a little more.

If you really want to do this, then great. It has to be something you love and will stick with. Honestly, there's a ton of competition out their right now, some legitimate and some scammers. It will take some time to get a large enough network to see a good income. So if you are just in this for the money, that's why I would recommend mainstream. But if you are in this for the love of it, then by all means stick with it and give it a go.

Read EVERYTHING you can. Learn how to acquire traffic, make sales, and what the different mediums are for all of those things. No one wants to just hand you the knowledge of any of those things, they'd prefer you had enough interest to do the research yourself. And there is nothing I can tell you that can't be found somewhere on this board in one thread or another.

Good luck, and when you get things rock solid, no broken pages, clean links and a steady (not huge) traffic, hit me up and maybe we can trade some links.

Good luck,

Preacher
