Do you know how to Pre-sell?

I remember when I first started out as an adultwebmaster I would build gallery pages for free sites and tgps without really knowing how to pre-sell my sponsor's sites.

What is pre-selling?

Pre-selling refers to informing and encouraging your surfers into visiting your sponsor sites so that by the time they hit the link with your linkcode in it they are excited to see the site you are sending them to. Most times surfers must feel like they are at a casino when they click on links... "Hmmm not sure what it means by More Amateurs HERE but lets just see..."

Recently I went through all the freesites I have built in the past and smiled to myself as I could see my progress from when I first started out (there was no preselling on my pages) to when I got really good at pre-selling.

Here is a page that does not do much pre-selling:
Example gallery with not much preselling

Here is a page I think is a great example of pre-selling:
Take a look at this great Pre-selling page HERE

How many adultwebmasters do you think will click on the links above? Did you? Are you going to? I bet you alot will, I did a great job preselling them! :D I am sure both pages get sales but which one do you think converts better?

Here is a another secret: When you spend the extra time preselling you are not only helping to increase your conversion ratio of people that visit that page but you are also creating text for search engines... and over time all that additional search engine traffic makes a HUGE difference in the amount of money you make. Believe me.

Your homework today is to think about how well you presell and concentrate on spending more time preselling instead of rushing to build your gallery pages.

Now all this assumes you are using sponsors with informative tours that convert... I like reality and amateur style tours because they have storylines that can make it irrestible for some surfers to join. An example of what I am talking about is the reality sites from topbucks. Those reality tours are awesome and updated often which is important when it comes to selling memberships.
