Setting Up A Directory: My Adventures

Xeno · 2006-04-18, 10:20 PM

Usually you will find most LL's will have the index with a selection of hard link trades with others and of course, the Warning details that the person is about to enter an adult site...a lot of times the extra text of categories and other things on the index page helps with onsite SEO efforts and again, everyone has their preferences to this.

As for the #3 one...many LL's I've seen have wild text all over the place and could frustrate the surfer and can be hard to find your way around. I think you will find more organized link sites in the form of "directories" but for LL's, some are very easy to use and others not so. I know Ultimate Warrior said before "Keep it Simple Sucker" is actually a valid point for most LL's to establish that mind-set. However, those who want to start a LL should also keep in mind the surfing habits of a Porn Surfer. There are many variables to think about when planning one. I sometimes like to say "dare to be different" but still use the basics. There is nothing wrong with being creative and design it as an encased structured Link list without borderless text all over the page, while keeping a simple clean user interface for the surfer in mind. Penisbot is a good LL...

I've been giving more and more thought about the excess galleries that I have felt burdened with for so long at WW and this thread has motivated me to remove much of them sooner than planned and to get the ball rolling on making it look much more like a real link list. My amateur links page is one that has been thinned pretty heavily within the last couple of days. The galleries you see left are pretty much gallery submissions from partners and a few old FHGs. Now, compare that to my big tits page and you'll see a ton more galleries there. I have a mountain of selecting and deleting to go, but killing most of the galleries shouold increase the amount of traffic going to the free sites, rather than the galleries, some of which are 3-4 years old. I'm trying to preserve the galleries that have been submitted by current parnter submitters, but will eventually prune them in the future rather than listing them indefinately. I stopped listing galleries on my main/new links page months ago and only list free sites there. That was all part of slowly getting my bookmarkers used to free sites after being a TGP for so long. Of course, it does reside in a directory named 'TGP' and that will not change. I'm not going to chance pissing off the SEs just so I can pretty-up my URL.
