    How does Greenguy's Link-O-Rama get its traffic?

    How do sites like Greenguy's Link-o-Rama get its traffic?

    Since they don't do forced traffic on their outgoing links, how do receive traffic other than SE traffic?

    I see that some TGPs link to Greenguy's site, but Greenguy doesn't link back. Yet this counts for a couple hundred hits, are people just being generous?

      Its called surfer retention, bookmarkers, name recognition, strong hard link trade partners, tons of newbies who think if they put up a link and send traffic, that he'll send back too.. You get in early and build a following, its pretty much certain that your going to succeed..

          hehe I feel the same way

          If you don't know how sites like green guy, pk, tommy, thehun, ect get traffic, then, well, I don't know what to say.
          blah blah blah...

            Well, the reason why I asked was because I'm in the process of starting up a new freesite directory just like GreenGuy's, etc.

            And because I don't have the visitor loyalty and branding like the ones created back in the 90's, how am I going to obtain traffic?

              The obvious is always overlooked.

                Green Guy is one of the oldest, along with Persian Kitty. I cannot tell you how many times I have seen his url mentioned in mainstream articles. Same with Kitty. I even heard a rumor once that Playboy wanted to buy Persian Kitty and turn it into a brand, but she turned them down because she was making too much money on her own..

                Also, the Wetlands is a good example of people who got major press for years and years and don't have to worry about it anymore.

                          ok
                          here is a tip that will save you a lot of money
                          i dont know you or your skills but based on your question i can tell you.. if you try to follow greenguys or hoes or whatever fucking linklists way you will fail from day 1!
                          i can tell you that already... you can quote me on that in a couple of months....

                          believe me... with no connections... no foundation and (sorry) no real clue this will have the same effect like opening tgp #2893562935

                          it will die and the project fails
                          save your money...

                          i am honest and serious about the above said...

                          anyone can correct me at any time

                            Not to mention GG has like 30,000 sites in his link listings (just a wild guess), all of whom are linking to him. There are likely 5 times that in sites linking to him that AREN'T in his database, some old forgotten sites that still get traffic, freehosted pages etc. It all adds up.


                            One would imagine the search engine traffic would be pretty good for a long-established site with that kind of popularity.

                                heres a question i've always wondered. how the fuck is he allowed to use the hitchiker guide to the galaxy guy? havent they sued his ass yet or did he actually pay for a license?
                                SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR.
                                Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
                                Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                                  That's what I want to know too. Maybe they just don't know about it yet but I think I'll notify the owners of that image just to make sure.

                                    In terms of traffic, the traffic that the popular TGPs send to GreenGuy is very close to the SE traffic that GreenGuy receives. I believe it's a little more than the SE traffic, but I'll have to check.

                                    The thing someone has to explain to me is that why are there sites like mmm100, teeniesxxx, etc. send traffic to GreenGuy, and yet, he doesn't send any back from his site?

                                        Check out his top referrer list on the main page.

                                        And how would you know how much SE traffic he gets? Puhleeze.

                                          True, I don't know how to find out the stats of the SE traffic. Forget about it.

                                          Now... Why do TGPs send GreenGuy traffic with no return traffic?

                                            people often rememeber those that helped them early in the game with a link for life.

                                                Now... Why do TGPs send GreenGuy traffic with no return traffic?

                                                      I know i don't put his link up and i don't badder with his site anymore...since there is no return. Not that i don't think GG isn't a good place or a good webmaster, but what's the point ? I don't put sites for their reputation alone, unless it gives me a head up in the SE placement.

                                                          The thing someone has to explain to me is that why are there sites like mmm100, teeniesxxx, etc. send traffic to GreenGuy, and yet, he doesn't send any back from his site?
                                                          You almost hit the nail on the head -

                                                          The true fact is 200X or even more, link to GG than he links to them.

                                                          When he started back in 96 or 97, he was writing and linking to anybody and everybody - I took a link exchange but noticed the return link disappeared very quickly.

                                                          Having said that - The guy is working a great programme and has worked his butt off to get where he is today - Nice guy!

                                                              bump. no one knows the answer to this?
                                                              SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR.
                                                              Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
                                                              Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                                                                Since they don't do forced traffic on their outgoing links, how do receive traffic other than SE traffic?

                                                                I see that some TGPs link to Greenguy's site, but Greenguy doesn't link back. Yet this counts for a couple hundred hits, are people just being generous?

                                                                progex, sometimes it is hard to get a straight answer to a simple question on GFY.

                                                                a few people here gave you the right answer.

                                                                building long-term traffic with staying power takes a methodical plan and some time.
