    Smaller galleries for TGP owners?

    Was thinking how rather than adding hosted galleries to my TGP, it might be beneficial (in many ways) to host all of my own galleries spread onto several servers.

    Have maybe 100 or so on the same server and same domain as the TGP, this way the SE see's multiple pages and plenty of content, then have another 100 or so on a high ranked domain with a link back .. so the SE see's relavent linkbacks.

    I started wondering what the hosting charges could add up to if i did this, then i thought ... do i really need to give 15 free pics on a heavy graphics page? I mean, this is my own TGP ... i make my own rules, dont i?

    My question is this ...

    Has anyone ever tried converting a gallery that has maybe a title, 2 or 3 pictures, and a link saying "Click Here To Join" or something?

    Seems if alot of the TGP owners got into this habbit, it may help their pagerank since your adding 100 pages of content, and 100 linkbacks ..... as well as possibly crimping the free porn thats being given to the surfer (to a point)

    I dont know too much about it, but would this be concidered TGP2? Also, can you give any reason why this is a bad idea?

    Thanks.

            Yeah that's just TGP2 style galleries, 5 pics and some good text links like "Continue the free tour".

              I had a tgp2 site in late 2001. It did really well conversionwise, BUT there's barely not traffic in tgp2.

              IF there were I'd start another site in a heartbeat.. hmm.. might do that anyways.
              ..and I'm off.

                Well, considering i wont be submitting these galleries, and just listing them on my own 14 TGP's .... i wont need to rely on outside traffic for conversions.


                BTW, the gallery i had in mind actually only had 2 or 3 pictures, do you think it would be ok? or should i stick with 5 like the tgp2 standard?

                  Also, since right now all my hits are going to choker ... i cant expect ANY conversions, hopefully by doing this i add a sale now and then ....

                  Makes sense on paper, but i fuck that up quite often lol

                    another concern i had ...

                    lets say i make 300 of these bad boys ... 100 on the same server as tgp, 100 on another server, and 100 on yet another.

                    Is google going to realize that i have 300 pages with similar layouts and all of them linking to my tgp ....

                    isnt that "spamming" according to them?

                      I think you need like 5 pictures atleast to keep your trades alive. I doubt they'll click another gallery if they get a bannerfarm with 3 pictures on their first click
                      ..and I'm off.

                        ok let me do some rough math ...

                        50kb per pic x 5 = 250kb
                        9kb per thumb x 5 = 45kb
                        5kb for page (?)

                        total of 300kb per page load (assuming they click all the thumbs)

                        Lets say i send 30k/day to galleries.

                        30k x 300kb = 9,000,000kb


                        so im looking at roughly 9gig extra bandwith? Or diid i do that wrong

                            how the fuck did you pull a PR6 on an adult site?

                              You can get those pics and thumbs smaller but don't forget to add in the banner/graphic weights. On TGP2 style galleries you might want to go a bit FPAish which would mean fairly heavy usage on those.

                              Having said that, you then have a click thru machine so the increased sales should more than make up for gig spend.
                              BBW sales not up to scratch? try some tgp2 hosted galleries

                                Make sure the title and meta tags are different and don't use the exact same text on each page. I don't think there is a limit to the number of pages you can get listed on google.

                                    Ok .... now it all makes sense right? Seems to be an alternative to reviewing galleries or sending traffic to gallery programs.

                                    So why arent more people doing it? There must be a catch.

                                    Why did TGP2 drown so quickly?

                                      Because once they find a tgp(1) site they aren't coming back to yours.

                                        Well i guess that would illiminate bookmarkers to a point.

                                        But take into consideration, no offense to choker, but these (i)frame galleries suck so bad, lol

                                        yet so many TGP's are using them ... they are risking their bookmarkers also.

                                        Also, seeing as every single gallery is mine ... i can feel safe removing all advertising on the actual site. Surfers may appreciate that.


                                        Currently i send all hits to choker, and i run a high trade skim, i still manage to maintain a steady flow of heavy traffic. I cant see that changing due to galleries. Regardless of what the surfer is going to see, there is still a number of clicks that will go to trades and get me some new surfers .... granted that is a very unreliable way to keep traffic, but it seems to be working ok.

                                          yeah they'll always go for more,

                                          but assuming you don't rely on bookmarkers you can list all the tgp2's/fpas you like on your own tgps!

                                            If someone developed a program to create these files for you, in return for maybe a linkback or something ....

                                            Providing we get a good number of TGP's to use them, i think it can make a serious impact on the market. Less free porn, more paying surfers.

                                            Now after running all the numbers and scenerio's, i really wish TGP2 had not fell to a horrid death .... seems like someone was onto something that could have helped us all alot.

                                              how the fuck did we manage to have a somewhat logical conversation without a single flame?

                                                Yeah - I'm about to release a few hosted tgp2 galleries for a BYOT - I figure if they're only for listing on my own and affiliates tgps only its got to make more sense.

                                                As for the flames - had a share of that earlier today when someone thought I was a kid who knew nothing of basic geography LOL - a different story in a different thread - hell its all good fun though!

                                                    Why not just use lots of free hosting (sponsors and non sponsors) to acheive that at no cost to you? All you need is a script that will make galleries on the fly and ftp them into these servers!

                                                      Basically you're just talking about some type of free site. Why would you even call it a TGP? Use 5 pictures per page, 80-100 "galleries", and you're set. I built one the other day, just haven't sent in any traffic yet.

                                                        Assuming you have done it prior to the other day, how did you find conversions and/or CTR?

                                                        Did you go heavy with graphics? Or was it just plain 5 pics, and a enticing text link on bottom.

                                                          It doesn't convert worth shit and the CTR is terrible. It's hardly sent any clicks to its sponsor.





                                                          But that would probably because it's getting no traffic.

                                                            TGP2 is the way to go. My conversions are like 5 times better than regular TGP traffic. I don't make as much money with TGP2 as with TGP traffic because there isn't nearly as much total traffic, but it does convert.

                                                            TGP2 has not drowned. It is still alive and well and make people some pretty decent money.

                                                              Do you just submit to the pool or do you actually make galleries with recips and such for a TGP2 list?

                                                                I think many sites get thier submissions from the pool. An easy thing to do is if you are making a TGP gallery for submission, cut it down to 5 pics, add pics on html and submit it to the pool. How many minutes will this take out of your day?

                                                                  No offense taken, this is what so many "webmasters" think. you need to think like a surfer, not a webmaster. These hahahahahahad gallery spots are selling so well I will soon discontinue selling normal gallery spots and only sell hahahahahahad. Surfers love the movie galleries especially. I will not disclose the number of bookmarked hits my galleries get, but it is 7 figures a day. So somebody has to like these galleries a awfull lot.

                                                                  As far as loosing bookmarkers, I do not see this happening with TGPs using my galleries. If this were the case this program would have died 6 months ago. Wait until GS3 comes out in a month or so, it will gain you bookmarkers bigtime if done correctly.

                                                                      I changed my TGP2 to a TGP that took 5 pics and up including movie galleries. I tracked the bookmarkers. I changed back because the time it took to keep up with the cheaters was not worth it. I get the same number of bookmarkers and see no change in traffic growth with either format.
                                                                      Also I have always taken hardcore pics. Personally I don't think this makes a differance.
