Best advice I've seen as a relative newbie is to email EVERYONE you have submitted that has an ars link on it.
I know I don't want my traffic redirected without my consent...so I am removing all ARS links, though replacing many where I can with the new ARS RI
I've had several galleries listed on Persian Kitty and World Sex for example that I had forgotten about...several months after I submitted them.
I had figured those gone for I've had more recent pages on both of them...but sure as hell all of a sudden I get an email from one and heavy traffic from both...I'm heavily in the rotation system at XNXX also...and many of my real old pages are still getting archive hits many places, but I don't think that would matter, just new listings.
I really think this is a major shakeup in the industry...I know it is for lil ole me..lol....hell ARS was overall one of GG&J's top sponsors last year
and it has made me a nice piece of change....but I think all the players in the industry realize what is happening and will let a lot slide.
But it doesn't hurt to email them b4 you change anything.
I know it sucks for me with all my niches, most were based on ARS sites and filled in with my other sponsers....Hurry up John with those Gay, Tranny, and Anal niches you are hinting at...lol
I'm scrambling in some of my niches for sponsers as it is
Personaly, I think I can make some money with the new ARS...but they are in no way going to be again my main sponsor...as it was I've found some of the smaller guys convert much better..tho 1 400 average is not bad...I'm Really Going to miss Mature is Better and Old N Naughty as they have been converting my first and largest niche at under 1/250...sigh...No one I have tried has come close in the mature niche...tho ExploitedMoms is close.
Plus I'm finding a lot of the "gay network" sites convert well
Well now to look for other ways to make money
