So you may have a link that says "donkey loving" sending traffic to a leg fetish site -- which is totally a waste of traffic for many reasons which I don't have time to explain here. Blind links send out a lot of traffic which improve "productivity" -- which in essence gives everyone a false sense of security and reward. Most people that trade w/ scripted sites do get back what they put in -- but generally it's totally bullshit traffic like CD is saying.

Words taken right out off my mouth...
I wrote my script so my site would run as similar to how my site ran non-scripted as i could. I think for the most part it works. My top 10 do NOT send me crap traffic because i ignore unproductive hits. I have some content, and i wrote my script to update HTML. I use LARGE textlinks for larger trades.
Well i could go on but the bottom line is that i did for me what I thought was best and maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but at least i thought about what i was going to do for a long time. I think that most people( most new people ) come into the game and almost immediately get a script. They don't know how it works or how to design a site that can send good traffic... they just fill it up with tricks and blind links and if they make money then they're happy.
Hope you all have a nice day.
