Anyone getting listed at Hoes.com lately?

I've been saying for a while that fixed and required recip text is a big mistake for google, and I've suggested we should figure out a new system that changes that requirement.

I'm back!!!

And I'm glad to see this thread. It means alot to me that people are "wondering" about hoes.com. At least it hasn't been forgotten.

The main issue here has been letting go of two employees. The problem is that these were the employees handling the day to day with free site submissions and reviews. This was a sudden firing of these guys for crazy reasons and I was unprepared to handle their work. I made a decision to take a break from free sites while I sorted this all out. My apologies for not posting a thread about it. I've just been crazy out of my mind as you can imagine.

Anyway, rest assured that all of the backlogged submissions are still in the system. I will catch up with them day by day as I've been able to better prioritize my workload.

As one of you mentioned, I began sending out an email today related to the niche category recip links. Yes, those are a HUGE mistake these days. The surest way to get nailed by Google is to keep pounding away at the same anchor text link day after day. It's affected many linklists over the last 6 months and the best way to improve our situation is to either not use them or randomize the links pointing to our sites.

Because older linklists like hoes.com have 100k+ free sites pointed at them, it's not an easy task to get those links changed. The email I sent out today is an effort to at least get "some" of them changed. Basically, if you have a way of going through your backlog of free sites and randomizing or changing the anchor text, then I am offering a permanent link to a site of your choice as a thank you for your efforts.

I do have new recip links available and I wish for everyone to start using them as they are different than before. As of today, there are 2000 sites in the queue. I''m hoping some of those can be changed before I get to them. If not, I'll send out that email letting you know of the issue.

I know it's a pain to change things, but the old way of forcing anchor text recips is dead. Natural linking is king, but impossible to imitate for free sites. So random anchor text is a step in the right direction.

Random meaning "Great Porn Site" or "Check This Porn" or "Hoes.com Links" or whatever really... it needs to look natural. Linking with "Blowjobs" isn't going to work anymore!

thanks everyone

I also understand your concerns about movieroom and agree with everything. My 2011 strategy is to get back to my roots. Hoes and movieroom are my roots. The new mainstream projects have taken me away from all of this.

I'll make announcements here as I am able to provide more things for Movieroom. I also plan to revamp the tour a bit to improve conversions.

Make it known though that the tube sites have hurt DVD pay sites alot so 2008 conversion don't seem possible. But I can improve it.

Glad to hear you are working on submits. And I will start submitting to you again.

I just purchased a TGP from a guy today and created a link list/TGP site from it.

Reading your post, I put 5 or 6 choices that had other words in them, to make them seem more natural (yet not blind). Thanks for the tip...something I would not have thought of.

And would love to see you get better conversions for MovieRoom. I know none of us has as good of conversions in this economy as we did a few years ago, but improvement would be good.
