Do you consider these blind links?

I personally don't think the last two are blind links, as they suggest spending some money or at least some kind of sign up is necessary. Yes, even if the paysite name isn't part of the text.

'continue here' and 'continue tour' I never really liked, I think of the paysite's front end as the tour, not the freesite. But it may depend on the context too, what words are used with them. I really hate seeing a big huge 'continue tour' at the bottom of a freesite page.

But that's just my opinion

Nope, all of those are fine with me. "Continue tour" may be a tad iffy, but "tour" is one of those magic words that to me suggests I'm being taken to a paysite. "Continue" by itself is a no-no, but I'd let this slide.

I dont like continue tour under a pic gallery cause it gives the impression there are more pictures or movies from the same series

so it's iffy, the other two words are obviously ok
