How do you get your traffic?

By free(site) do you mean the standard warining page => main page => two gallery pages, and nothing more? Or something like a hub?

Freesites submitted to LL's bring in most of my traffic, though the search engines often favor me more than my top LL referrers.

It's hard to say which traffic sources are most productive, but the freesites that get the most SE exposure tend sell more than the rest for me.

I take a slow and steady strategy when it comes to hardlink trades. People often say this is a long-term business, so I treat is as such.

Freesites, and well managed hubs wich point to those freesites, make good long term cash producers.

Both actually. I am working on my hub page which will have list of all my free sites. I believe this is really good way to keep traffic flowing from one free site to another.

Can you give me a tip from your hardlink trade strategy?

Yeah, be paranoid.

I've been burned in the past, so I tend to just trade a few links here and there. Taking it low isn't so much about SEO tactics, it's more about making less work for me in the future. I don't want to have to check links every month to make sure everything is going smooth.

If it's a quality link, go for it. If it's questionable, be picky.

Also, I don't look at PR as much as compatabiliity. PR changes over time.
