So basically you can make more money out of a 20K tgp than 200k tgp, if all galleries are yours. + you can have your own spots/links to paysites.
I had many listings on thehun, but my shitty sites made more money. The galleries were the same, only more to choose from

Exactly care about making money.

If you got 1,000,000 hits to galleries but all generated from 5 tgps with a total of 100,000 unique surfers... I bet you'd make a lot less than if you have 1,000,000 hits to galleries generated from 100 tgps with a total of 1,000,000 unique surfers.

While a paying surfer, on average, buys more than one membership, I don't think they do it all at once. I'm of the belief that sign ups are generated from galleries (it's different from other methods) with the surfer's "cock-in-hand". That's to say he found something that really did it for him and he wants to see more of that right now. If this is true, it clearly supports the theory that more unique hits = more sales. Who knows, maybe I don't know shit.
