on the free site side of things quality won over quantity in the end though as my free sites kinda died out. while others soared. Karups is a good example of quality winning out, in the pay site side of things and I think Shap also does a wonderful job in this area. Nowdays I try to offer a quality service to my surfers and keep them happy. I think AFF also does this and does it very veyr well. I look forward to the next few years its gonna be fun !
I've been saying it for 7.5 years. Considering our age difference, I'd say I meet the handicap for the course.

You've got your quality based brand marketers: Karups, ATK (my most recent alma mater), Scoreland (my very close friend and much admired big bad billiards man David Uwate), Shap (no introduction needed), FarL (Homegrown), MET Art, Hegre, FTV, Simon Scans, Abby Winters, Explicite, etc, etc, etc......

vs.

Your QUANTITY based marketers: Xpics (the oldskool I graduated from along with Shap and even AlienQ... where we learned right from wrong very explicitly), Click Cash (which I still make an ASSLOAD of money with... sorry CAMS.COM), CE (another skool I attended - my hat still goes off to Ron. Regardless of what the haters say, this is one of the most intelligent men in this industry), MAX Cash, TCG, etc, etc, etc...

In the end it's a wash. One marketing strategy is no more profitable than the other, However, given my personal experience, I tend to stick with quality over the quantity because there is a greater chance of longevity based on factors such as consumer satisfaction, personal referrals, loyalty, and brand preference.

But to each their own. The industry is certainly as open to both schools of thought as it ever has been.

All I want to know is this: When is Shap and Choker gonna GET IT ON!!!!!!!
