    "Tell a friend" scripts - worth it?

    Anyone use a "Tell a friend" script on your site? Do any surfers actually do it? Any chance of getting accused of spamming - even though the message "comes" from whomever submitted the address?

    Thanks

    Interesting question I don't think there is anything wrong with it actually since you didn't initate it

      I have never experienced any problems with that kind of script, but then I have never seen that big a return on them.. With my traffic it is probably 1 in 2000 that send one and then 1 in 100 of the recipients that actually come to my sites..
      thats just my experience..

            It is very worth it. It's just a snippet of code you can put in your Php sripts for replication so the one time effort is definitely outweighed by the recurring traffic opportunities

                      Waste of time.

                      Depending on the site though.

                      If its a TGP maybe 1 in 5000 will use it.
                      Thats one more hit IF the "friend" decides to click.
                      Care about me?
                      Who?
                      Me!
                      Who?

                              I have one on a humor site and it's used like crazy, but that's also because they're sharing pics. I thought about using one on a tgp, but porn is relatively private, so I don't know how well it would work.

                                i think it will work if you have something special on your site that is worth telling a friend about, but since buddies share info about porn sites they visit?

                                    I don't think it really works but what the hell.. it's not taking up alot of space anyway so try it out.
