Sponsor usage for LL

bluemoney · 2006-12-06, 12:55 PM

Prolly been asked before so forgive me. Is it better to limit the amount of sponsor links I use on my LL or is it better to offer a wide variety in all the niche categories? Any thoughts and advice would be greatly appreciated

I've tried both - or I should say, I was trying the "wide variety" theory & right now, I'm trying what I'd call the "top performers only" option, where I'm pulling a shitload of poor performing sites so that I can get the listings at a manageable amount while still pushing sites that have consistently performed.

The one problem I am currently having is with less popular niches, where there's only a handful of sites to promote anyway - I sorta have to leave the duds on the pages

I've tried both as well.

TDW lists a bunch on the paysite pages and prior to the new template I listed 10 on a page above the free-site listings.

Depraved Pornsites only lists 2 sponsor sites on a category page and those links rotate, but I doubt any of my categories have more than 10 actual sites that it can rotate between and some have only 3.

As far as results...I have no idea. I don't really see any big difference.

I think it really depends on your traffic type and what sponsors you choose to use, not to mention how you list them on your site or pages. I think it'll be different with each person.

I used to have mine mixed in with the free sites but decided to separate them allowing a complete categorized solution, giving the surfers a clear option. The method I used before didn't do too well....but again I limited the selection. **by the way, I am referring to 69toplinks.com forgot I changed my sig banner...hehe. But anyways, it will be interesting to see how this new method works.

Thanks for the feedback guys

I think I will combine Greenies "top performers only" model while instituting Preacher's "rotation" method for new and low performing sites to see if anything "hits". Over all I think maybe I just have too much clutter.

Out of interest what are these niches maybe we can show you something new

It also depends on your traffic amount, if you spread the hits out too much or to thin between many sponsors, less chance of making a sale with any.
