I knew sooner or later the old "traffic leak" excuse would surface. Just like any debate there are some although few, and I happen to be one, who does not buy into the "traffic leak" excuse ... at the risk of massive attacks by you traffic gods,here's why...
#1 You tgp guys would not have traffic if people with content used your same logic. Why submit free content, when tgp guys have "Content Leaks" You are not soley promoting any one persons content, right? So is that person submitting galleries submitting to someone who leaks content. Its putting the shoe on the other foot.
#2 People who are not fortunate to have an alexa ranking below 10,000 have to scrape and get quality traffic from as many sources as possible. Often times that means paying for it, and if your main program does not convert every single surfer, then why not offer that same niche traffic to other similiar sites. It's perfectly logical and reasonable to give your targeted traffic a shot at converting in an identical niche. Many webmasters in this niche have figured this out and are doing well with this so called "traffic leakage"
#3 I am not trying to convince all of the experts and know it alls, I am simply saying that believing that myth thinking that a program must only rely on your traffic to convert for it is very arrogant and not practical anymore.
#4 How about all the programs out here who have no "traffic leaks" but they shave the shit out of your sales.
#5 In conclusion you can make up your own mind which is what we have done, and I am happy to say we are getting more and more people to join the program regardless of the "traffic leaks" because the strength of the program stands on its own. It converts, it retains, it has Free Hosted Galleries.
#6 Here is the kicker, maybe this is where we are smelling ourselves and thinking our shit does not stink, but we are confident enough in our content and site that we offer links to similiar sites because we welcome the surfer to compare our site with others. We do not treat the surfer like an object who cannot distinguish for him or herself quality sites of which they ultimately will join based on their appeal and not there clicking convienience.
So there is my feeble attempt to illustrate a different perspective on the issue of "traffic Leaks" What If no one submitted to the traffic gods because of "content Leaks" just apply the same standard across the board, try to look at both sides. Many Of these interracial amateur are following suit and it seems to be paying off!
Thats all I am saying before you say " later for that program they have traffic leaks"
