LL Submissions down due to 2257 at all?

[RawAlex]

Linkster, findpics has a limited submits per day, and in some cases, I am no longer hitting that number. I am seeing a higher concentration of submits coming from webmasters outside of the US at this point.

I think most people are in the same position I am. Even though I am not in the US and not bound directly by 2257 regulations, I am caught having to pull sponsor content, switch or remove banners, and basically clear up because some sponsors have had to pull sites.

Most of these sponsors sadly waited until the last minute to get going, so many programs right now have NO VALID BANNERS.

It's really a major fuckup all around.

I wish I was in the business of making banners, those people have got to be ROCKING now.

That's interesting... so many programs don't have banners right now, and they are worried about hosted free sites?

Makes me wonder about the priorities.

I'd guess that they're adding HFS's and FHG's to replace the sexually explicit downloadable affiliate content that they've removed.

Sometimes I really wonder if sponsors understand the the concept of site/gallery posting.

I have been a little busy trying to get my house in order also. Everything is SEOd, so I want to do as little damage as possible by changing things. On the bright side, Google seems OK with a test I put up, so once this 2257 clears up, I should be picking up a whole bunch more traffic.

Only a few sponsors that I didn't manage to convince that foreign WMs really shouldn't have to go through the exercise. Funny thing is that some I convinced still haven't changed their TOS to reflect it.

Yeah tell me about it I been going to softcore banners and text links on my LL and most programs dont have any right now LOL

then I replaced some content and fixed up and submitted some old sites and then its run the bot remove sites and review and then review parttime on another LL and then work a little on the banners again... I would just pull all the banners but I had alt tags and didnt want to risk fucking up some SE listings I have..

I am spent, all this worry over 2257 shit I am starting to really hate this whole fuckin BIZ If it wasnt for all the time I have in my LL I think I would delete everything - I think the only thing that is keep me going is that my LL is growing and giving me sales not a whole lot but some...
