Then why will your "link list" list galleries?

The bottom line is that Link Lists link to Free Sites & Pay Sites and sometimes AVS Sites & other similar lists/pages. Some have other sections like galleries & blogs & POTD & whatnot, but the main focus is the Free & Pay Sites.

What you are building is NOT a Link List in my eyes & based on that, I can endorse this as a "how to" for building a Link List from scratch.

I have no experience in building or maintaining the type of site that you are building, so I will wish you luck with it & keep my mouth shut

My site will list ... links.

Links to free sites.

Links to galleries.

Links to blogs.

Links to paysites.

Links.

You've described some link lists, not all of them. The model is not so restricted.

Your call. But I have trouble believing this is your reason.
