1:350 isn't magic. A high converting paysite should average below 1:200.

I sort of understand your scepticism though. When I first started, I didn't even believe I'd get a check, and when I got my first check, I wasn't sure if it was real or fake.

My first free sites were pretty horrible. I remember checking my sponsor stats every day and seeing no sales day after day. One paysite I remember I sent 4000 clicks and no sales. My sites looked good, the thumbs weren't over compressed, I used horny text, I used different gallery layouts, etc etc... but the sales just weren't coming.

I asked people about stats, and when people said I should be getting 1:500 at least I was "like how?"

Well, after a few good advice from other webmasters, I changed my approach, and I started seeing some amazing numbers that makes 1:350 look like shit.

So here's my advice...people here are not steering you wrong, re-read this thread and start building better sites.

Thanks for taking the time to explain Linkster, and for making perfect sense!
The idea is to tempt the surfer into looking for a bit more and then let the tour do it's job, rather than trick the surfer onto the tour and create another pissed off porn-hunter. I understand.

So much great advice here. It's amazing.
