How Valuable Are Hosted Galleries?

Would a few webmasters minding sharing their thoughts as to how valuable or how important hosted galleries are? As a sponsor I kind of feel like we're obliged to provide them but I'm skeptical as to their worth?!

I think from a webmasters point of view they are more of a sweetner than anything, certinaly over the last 12 months i have noticed webmasters becoming more and more lazy so far as what they are wanting from affiliates.

From a program owners point of view, hosted galleries will be one thing that i wont be offering affiliates when i launch my program early next year.

Make us work for our money and we'll actually make more of it

There's still definitely a lot of space to innovate when it comes to SHGs. I posted a thread earlier about this there were about 10 or so differing ideas offered by webmasters that use SHGs for their TGPs that sponsors can use to differentiate themselves from their competition.

SHGs are fast becoming a requirement in this biz, new up and coming sponsors may yet win a large affiliate pool by coming up with solutions to webmasters' SHG-related concerns.

I'd be happy if all sponsors would just stop sequentially numbering their fhg's. I cry everytime I see freehostedgallery-175.html, knowing there are 174 other free galleries waiting for nosy surfers.

Actually, your reaction reveals many of the opportunities that newer sponsors can take advantage of in creating SHGs that will set them apart from existing SHG solutions. One of the key problems is the time and effort needed in presenting SHGs to the surfer. Currently, there are 3 ways to present gallery links in a TGP. Either category with pic # e.g. Teens (16) (like thumbzilla and similar sites) or Fine blonde fucks herself with dildo (like pinkworld) or hybrid text of 16 pics of teen blonde fucking herself

The first textual approach is the easiest. Obviously it does not give the user much info re what he will find. The second two are more labor intensive since these actually involve categorizing and describing the SHG link. (I provide a service that does this exclusively for your TGP for pennies each.)

A completely separate way of showing TGPs are thumbviews like in teeniefiles.com or jpeg4free.com where there are "face" shots or, in the case of thumberland.com, full action shots. Again, these take labor to resize, identify, and categorize.

A sponsor that can offer prelabelled, precut, and predata formatted SHG links that are easy to pick (due to text descriptions or keywords), gather, and load using a shopping cart type system can definitely gain a competitive advantage over other SHG provision systems that require webmasters to do heavy manual labor.

VERY good point, garce. Indeed, leacher sites like phatforums thrive on doing sequential leaching of MGP posts. A frequent victim is jp18 and Nasty dollars movie clip samples.

I agree!!! We use a sequential system for only the first four charaters of our directories. This method allows our webmasters to easily identify when new content is added and what content goes with what links. But we then use a couple of random characters at the end of the gallery name to throw off the leachers that would just go through each gallery if the entire gallery name were in sequence. See http://www.naughtyallie.com/affiliates/content.htm or take a look below:

Our webmasters seem to really like the hosted galleries we offer them. Some don't use them, but other use them, and use them very well. So I guess it is all personal choice.
It is just another tool for people to use.

didnt read the whole thread but I will say my opinion on hosted galleries..
Hosted galleries can be very good for biz but only if you know what your doing. If you don't you will burn bw and only lose money.
Hosted galleries should NEVER be on the program domain like gigacash.com do.... their urls are gigacash.com/blabla/gallery.html
How hard is it to buy a domain???
Second point hire a designer... and not just a designer, but a designer who knows wtf he is doing and knows how to convert and what works....
Third point is the content. Please use half decent content and not some cheap ass a dime a dozen content....

A sponsor should have at least 50 galleries per site on the program and always submit it to freehostedgalleris.com

thats all I wanted to say

That's SO true.
You really have to make sure you KNOW that your galleries will convert because you're in for a HUGE b/w bill.

Kewl thread

Giving webmasters the tools they need is the most important thing an affiliate program can do, and hosted galleries are definetly win/win when it comes to the program having max control of the sales pitch givin' to the affliates surfers.

Also don't forget FHG's make killer free sites to (i.e.; Warning Page, Hub Page with ads linked to 3 sponsor FHG's).

At SoulCash our roots are in TGP's and gallery submitting and it's reflected in our tour designs and FEW THOUSANDS FHG's that convert.

Here's some samples:
MelodyHart.com Sample Gallery
MyWhiteDicks.com Sample Gallery
TastyTranny.com Sample Gallery
ChickTrick.com Sample Gallery
JizzLickers.com Sample Gallery
Triple X Soul Sample Gallery

Plus a grip more for every site in our portfolio.

BTW good idea about random characters in the gallery url... gotta implement that one asap.

If you ever want to test my knowledge of the TGP game or slinging porn in general (or if you want to shoot the shit) hit me on ICQ 27263279

Any sponsor that does not have hosted galleries is getting left in the fucking dust and BIG TIME!!!

Webmasters with a lot of traffic need something to convert this traffic. A banner would do it but can I put 100 banners on my fucking page????? Hell no! But I can put 500 links to galleries that have two banners each. Hell yes.

I need to spend my time getting more traffic to my sites and not downloading content and building galleries for 50 sponsors.
Also maybe I suck at making galleries and make no sales for the sponsor. I definatley don't make galleries as good as the ones I get from blacksonblondes.com. Sometimes I think about not using BOB so much but those galleries keep them high on my list and I don't send traffic to other interracial sponsors because I don't have time to "Build their fucking business for them".


Sponsors: Make your own fucking galleries and let 1000 webmasters use them instead of waiting for 1000 webmaster to download the exact same content and do it for you.

Bandwidth???????
Give me a break.... How the fuck did I buy content, build galleries, submit to the hun, pay bandwidth and still make money off your 50/50 partnership and some how you cannot.
BULLSHIT!!!

You will make more money from hosted galleries because surfers don't always signup from the galleries but many type-in later and you get 100% of the sell. When I towed the bandwidth I never got 100% of the sale. Also TGPs are more liberal with the ads on hosted galleries because we get all the sales. So you can have more banners or bigger banners and then text links to your other sites that we get paid for. It's my money when I send hits to the gallery so you can load that "sum-bitch" up with ads that make me money.

If you don't have hosted galleries then you will not be considered a serious sponor for me.

I need simple shit like: I join your program, copy some links, send you hits and I get paid. Fuck spending all day downloading content and building galleries for you because I need many sponsors not just one sponsor. The easy to use sponsors get added to my site first and the download-and-do-everything-for-me-sponsor is put on the back burner. I'll get to them someday... maybe in the next two years.

I mean what could be easier... You build some galleries and everybody links them. No auto submit programs needed, no stupid posting rules and black listing, no confirmation email,
no recip bullshit. Refusing to make hosted galleries only means you never truly busted ass a TGP poster before because if you had then there is no way that you would think making hosted galleries is hard or not profitable. If someone like the hun drains the bandwidth with no conversions the just email them and ask them politley to back off the galleries a little. They've been around long enough to understand this.

Sponsors: Follow this guys lead.
I saw his sposnorship had hosted galleries; took a couple mins to signup; copied some links, pasted the links in my gallery database and now I'm cashing their fucking checks.
5 mins of work on my part and I'm getting paid a lot of money for that 5 mins. It ain't hard to figure out where the money is.
If I can find another sponsor like this every 5 mins then I should be rich in a week or too.
