New Site - What can I improve on?

[Sodo]

Hi NY Jester,

Actually I have already submitted this site to all of those linklists, But I will do what you say for the rest of the domains, since what you say makes great sense, I have bought around 20 domains so far and do not plan on spending all my money on that.

So the logic of what you're saying is that keep the top level domains as hubs because some of the surfers going to the free sites in the sub directories will probably try out the top level domain?

or is the reason another one?

Another thing am I overdoing the site designs for the free sites? should I make them uglier, would that decrease chances of getting listid at the link lists?

I appreciate your comments that was very good input, if you got any other tips or tricks you want to share or if you want to take me under your wings and teach me the best way to generate traffic or any other useful tips I would be more than happy!

There must be loads of other ways to generate traffic than the way I am doing it now.
I am working on my first blog as well to see if that can generate some traffic!

PM me or contact me on sodo@live.dk on msn - everyone who wants to give me a little help would be appreciated and valued!

I know I might not have too much to give in return now, but I hope I will be able to pay back traffic wise in the future!

Kind regards
Sodo

Well, the thought is two-fold really. Some surfers will of course back track to your top level domain as just being curious or trying to find "free stash" so yes having a place for all the sites to be easily clicked on is a plus in your favor. Second, you can use it as a portal type site..where you build pages for, in this case, Bi Lovers web sites. If you use a top level domain to submit you in theory lose that site for any other good.

I myself build my free sites and galleries as I would any other project. Meaning I put thought and effort into it. Maybe not as in depth as full sized sites or projects but with the idea of I want to put my best work out there. Does that matter? I'd like to hope so..but to be honest I dont know if it really does. What it does do though is show the Link List or TGP owner that I put real effort into it, that I dont rip hosted free sites or galleries and if that helps get me listed every time over someone who just squeaks by or doesn't use imagination than Im ok with spending an extra bit of time to do it right.

As for the other traffic ways or getting advice - this site is 90% business and 10% bullshit. I had been in the business for 8 years prior to joining as a member here...and within the last 18 months I have learned so much more than I all ready knew. The key is to keep learning, keep reading and keep doing. That's the real way to get ahead. This is not a "get rich quick" business any longer. It takes real time and real effort. Reading this board daily and going back searching for subjects that you need help with will greatly increase your understanding of how things work.
