There's a lot of almost classic threads popping up lately :thumbsup

Holly shit, you are bitching about a "PICTURE" gallery?? or Galleries.... :1orglaugh

Fuck that doesn't burn shit compared to a nice healthy "MOVIE" gallery. I would hate to see it if you got hotlinked to your movies from the Chinese like so many of us do.

Then come bitch about doing 300gigs a day.

:feels-hot

because he is getting nothing more than mooch surfers. TGP traffic in general is bad, but archive listings are the worst since the surfer already passed up 100's of chances to join something ... the odds of conversion are that much lower.


That just a silly theory,, you can find just as much people saying the total opposite,, The whole TGP traffic is an archive,, surfers get bounced around from TGP to TGP.


I could even say the main page the surfer just warms up, then he hits a categorized archive than find something he like.

LOL,,either stop complaining or send me your traffic

i get better results by not trying to filter. i find its best to get them sent directly to the site.

A listing in the archives gets you more targeted traffic AND traffic from people who have already gone through the main page. So I wouldn't say archives traffic is necessarily worse.
Anyway, enen though I might be wrong on what I have just said, if you submit a page to a tgp, I am assuming the tgp owner can do whatever he prefers with your gallery, that is, listing it on the main page, on the archives only or not listening at all.
If you are so picky about the kind of traffic you need to convert your galleries' traffic then buy some gallery spots at the hun or other big tgps.
There's no point in complaining for free traffic...

also,, getting listed in archive usually mean your gallery is listed on that domain a little longer,

so you might have a chance to get your gallery spidered and making more backlinks for your domain.


so is there any more complaints?

That guy actually sent me a big hate mail about how bad it is that I listed him in my archive .. kinda pissed me off etc.

However, for such a fucking flaming retard let me say one thing ..


MadThumbs, for instance, has all those niches .. lots of people don't like teen/babe/lesbian and the pretty shit on the front. They'd rather have 'just' mature, movies, or something else. If this dude can't get his finger out of his ass and realize that people actually DO bookmark archive pages and not just main pages he is a moron.

I get like 150-200k bookmarkers daily to my archives collectively. And also, just for the record. My main page sends around 800k-1,000k to galleries daily. However, the archive regularly (collectively as well) does around 1.2-1.5mil (more than mainpage).

So i mean, wtf, go suck a dick or something..


Latah.

How true..

Then again that traffic coming straight form the archives maybe you could run an independent counter on it and see if it actually does convert. Granted if it does it probably wont convert at as high a rate as getting listed on the main page, but then again who knows. With that many page views you might still see some sort of conversions that make it worth while.

If its happening I doubt you as a single gallery submitter would be able to do much to change it, so the more info you have on the situation the better informed your final decisions will be. I mean what are you left with, submit or not, obviously you need the submissions so just check and see exactly how bad that traffic is, maybe its not as horrible as you imagine.

Anyway thats just my thoughts on it.

But one of these pages was particularly bad:
· the sponsor has NO TRIAL at all, which normally is hard to convert with tgp traffic (I usually manage with limited submissions to hand-picked sites = not all my routine tgps get these galleries)
· I know I can sell this sponsor better with medium to high resolution pictures, so file sizes are almost twice that of a normal gallery
· and to top it of this template has 19 images plus a 30k header...
= all adds up in bw.

Oh, so you're pissed off because you posted a sub-par gallery pushing a sub-par sponsor?

I see. Next time you feel like bitching... bitch because YOU fucked up.

My God, George, one can never have too much traffic no matter what the source.

Traffic is what this game is all about.

Even the worst of the worst traffic can be sold to someone else for some amount of money.

Over the last few months I noticed several times that I had relatively high traffic from Teeniefiles' "archive", today Madthumbs' "archive" appears on the first page of my referrers on setracker (= top 25). I go and check: there are 2 (!!) galleries I submitted in the last 48 hours and they were never listed on the main page!
Gee - thanks :feels-hot ! Either my galleries are good enough to get listed or they're not!
But don't send me all these suckers who already went through hundreds of links and still need more free porn!
Particularly with one gallery where I use a sponsor with no trials - people have to fork out $30 bucks to get in. I manage to convert this sponsor on good traffic, but not with 'free-porn-suckers'. I'm seriously tempted to either 404 the page or replace the image links with an over-compressed set...
But then: do I really want to jeopardise my passwords and my reputation?

THIS SUCKS (my bandwidth, creativity, time)!:mad:

i've been around since day one on this board and only have 500 posts. I knew there was a reason I don't come here often. I hear the dumbest shit possible. :321GFY

Shaggy 07-01-2003 11:42 PM

if you were starving and someone gave you something to eat you'd bitch that it wasn't steak. :moon
