Choose who you help... I barely have time to do biz w/ the people that I already know -- let alone the newbies... I've decided to cut back on my newbie time ;) I'm looking to more scripts to handle most of the tedium...
I was sending tons of traffic to a newbie -- Miguel at sexy-photos.net -- he was me #1 referrer -- but I had to delete him... My experience told me that he was using a bot (or one of his referrers was -- I'm suspecting
http://www.xxxvogue.net/ for several reasons) there's no way in hell sexy-photos.net -- his site that just started out just a short time ago is sending out 5000/day to a site like freeones.com... He told me he hardly has much SE traffic and I know he doesn't have many bookmarkers -- Miguel lacks the experience of knowing what sort of traffic behavior is "unusual" -- anyway I'm a little pissed... I confronted him about his traffic -- but he hasn't defended himself...
Besides the people that have been around a little longer have more search engine and word-of-mouth traffic...
Another thing that's cool is webmasters that I traded traffic with 3 years ago have offfered me salaried jobs ;)
