I just spent a few minutes playing surfer and checking out a few tgps that I see in my referral links from time to time. I'm kicking around the idea of starting a TGP, so as much as anything else I was surfing the potential competition.

I've gotta say, if I were genuinely looking for free porn I would have ended up more pissed off than anything else. I kept clicking on galleries and getting redirected to other TGP sites through their traffic trading scripts...and I'm not talking about once or twice either. This was the surfing experience:

go to tgp
click on gallery chosen at random
redirected to another tgp
click on gallery chosen at random
redirected to another tgp
click on gallery chosen at random
redirected to YET ANOTHER tgp
click on gallery chosen at random
FINALLY SAW AN ACTUAL FREAKIN' GALLERY

This process was more or less repeated at multiple TGPs, who shall remain nameless. My question is, what kind of skimming percentage do these people have to be running for me to encounter this repeatedly? I mean, if I was a genuine porn surfer with cc in hand, these guys weren't even letting me get to the sales pitch.

Is this kind of Circle Jerk situation common with TGPs nowadays? If so, I'd be wary of trading any traffic at all, knowing that I was dumping my hard earned surfers into a piss-you-off situation like this.

Thoughts?
