      lol there are millions of SPLOGS..many less real, original content blogs.

      Plus the adult webmaster has a totally distorted concept of what a blog is...most just use it as a private tgp/mgp with sponsor provided RSS feeds.

      There are some very interesting mainstream blogs out there, I read several every day...why do I go back every day?..fresh, original, well written content and relevant, targeted information on the subjects I am interested in.

        Most blogs that have quality content are actually promoted and have real personality plus they superserve the audience. The rest are splogs that just gamble on getting some SE traffic. Surfers can smell the difference.

        Take Rochard's blog vs most others for instance. It looks fucking good and he doesn't just add random pics. http://www.rochardsbunnyranch.com/blog/

        There's a few others but it's late and I can't think straight right now.
        I've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

        Webair, bitches.

          The purpose of splogs isn't necessarily just getting traffic themselves, they can be used for various other purposes.

          Gambling ? If you know what you are doing, it certainly isn't. Search engine rankings should never be based on luck...if you have to gamble, you don't know how the game is played.

            (Speaking from experience with mainstream)

            Most are SPLOGs. The others are online "diaries" that get abandoned almost as soon as they are put up. Then there's blogs that are sporadically updated.Then there's some with some mild traction and decent link impact. And, finally, at the extreme right of the curve, are blogs with a) personality b) tight connections to a network of other bloggers with their own following c) established fan base d) extensive link network, etc etc you get the picture.

              Ok Mr. Literal. Thanks for the clarification. ;)

              The vast majority of splogs are crapshoots at SE traffic.

                      Yeah lots of adult blogs are just variations on gallery posting... i use our LCN Girls Blog to keep members and bookmark-surfers up to date on new girls, events, and attract traffic on a SE basis, but I do it manually.

                      Think of a blog as a diary or journal, too, because that's what most personal blogs are or have become.

                      There's political blogs too which allow armchair pundits to vent on what they see on Meet The Press.

                      It's a tool. You can use it to bang or saw or screw lol or come up with something new. Check out a software and think how you could use it...

                        People come to mine everyday because I tend to target fetishes and make it feel like the one place where they are safe to have their fetish and express it. Then I push them to my Cyberage based fetish sites

                                Just think of them as freesites. That's all they are. Just easier to make because now people don't even need basic html knowledge to make up. Most sponsors offer 1 click Wordpress installs, so the bar for entry has been siginifcantly lowered.

                                Spend you some brain.

                                  I guess if you keep it updated daily and they like what you have to offer, they will keeping coming back to the same one. Sorry, I've been out of the blog world.

                                    Thanks man. That made my day.

                                    Just keep in mind when reading my blog that it's pretty much all fake. Except for the recent post where my car got blown away by a Mercedes - that part was real.

                                    I don't get the RSS thing. What's the point of having a blog that has everyone else content on it?

                                      It would be interesting to know how well splogs convert in comparision to handwritten ones. And also, how much traffic the splogs get in comparision to handwritten after a year of going live.

                                                    I saw many blogs of blondies with lots of stupid things in there, and they are soooo popular! So, there is the key to success!
                                                    These things are good

                                                        Thank about that.
                                                        Well, AVS sites are kind of like TGP sites but without all the free stuff, they like what they see, and they are in. Then they get access to over 300K sites and all the extra bonuses we give them.

                                                        Someone's personal site has stories about them, with a new picture here and there. It just looks like a lot of work to update every day. And I think as soon as you try to upsell something on your personal blog, that may scare off your visitor that comes to your blog daily to read your stories.

                                                          It's for affiliates. If you can generate an RSS feed that contains the affiliate's referral code in each link to the blog or whatever source, galleries, site tour, etc..., you're effectively syndicating a content feed that lets a lot of otherwise lazy or busy affiliates populate pages with content without having to pay too much attention since the RSS feed is, say, updated everytime the blog is.
