If I click that link & get a paysite tour, am I going to look for the free videos that are sometimes hard to find on a tour, or am I going to click back out feeling like I just got taken.
It's really all about trust, and for a LL, trust = return visitors which is very important. Every site I list is an extension of my site & I want everyone to be able to click on any link and not feel like they were manipulated onto a tour page.
Don't forget, we see it all a bit differently than surfers do, especially new surfers  |
Very nicely put Ponygirl
Regarding your site...actually, it's not a bad effort
Looks like you must have already fixed up blind links. For future reference, here's a great thread on the subject:
Blind links and how to avoid them
A couple comments on your site:
It's a very clean look...although you can dress it up a bit. Add some juicy text here and there...tease the surfer a bit. And you're allowed up to 3 outbound links per page, use them wisely...those links are how you make sales
You seem to have some alignment issues on the galleries. They do look ok at 1024, but anything wider, they slide left.
Lastly, that particular host is considered a free host and as such, is not acceptable at most link sites.
Other than that...a pretty good first effort
