How many LLs do you submit to?

If someone is worried about the duplicate content penalty they could always vary the other entrance pages so that they are more unique as well (changing a few words around might even do it). Or even use seperate templates entirely. It would be a little more work, but is doable.

Lordy, that's like doing 10 freesites a day, 9 of them for a tiny amount of traffic. Just because you happen to have the content cropped and ready, pretty much.

I currently submit to 10-14 lists. I go for the ones that send the most traffic + a couple that only require one link in the recip table. I don't want to submit to LL's that require 2 backlinks for a negligable amount of traffic. The way I see it, 2 links for 1 does not make good SEO sense, so a LL needs to compensate for that with enough traffic.

That said, I now have help in the freesite department from my brother-in-law. We may try the mirror sites to dozens of LL's approach with a few FS in the future, and see if that generates more sales. No way am I going to start tweaking text and creating different ones though. We'll just see if the cons outweigh the pros or the other way around. Might even make this into a proper experiment and post the results here.
