I won't make my money back, but that comes with any advertising... you have to try things out first then go with what works the best. When I first bought the spots the original screenshot showed, teen, hardcore, mature, etc and that they were forsale. When they were being sold, I thought it was those links exactly that were being sold. At that time there were just 2 lines of links there and it was easy to read. Now it's almost 5 full lines or 2-3 word descriptions that are all screaming for attention and that has definitely affected the amount of click-throughs.

Maybe I read the original thread wrong about the spots but it seemed clear that they were 1 word links to a particular niche being sold and now there are links in the niche I thought I bought exclusively going to sites I compete with.

that's exactly what I thought as well! it came to be tripled :(

I got you all beat, I'm at $0 so far.. way too many links were sold. I thought i was going to be one of 5-6 links at the top. I blame it partly on myself since the site wasn't fine tuned to an mpg audience.. but the deal seemed way too good at the time to pass up, I figured if I converted at 1:2,000 I'd still make a profit, but just haven't gotten many hits and no signups thus far. Live and learn.

What we have decided to do for next month is only offer 25-30 paid text links on Video-Post. This will significantly improve the amount of traffic each paid text link receives. This is down from the 41 paid text links we currently have on the site. Just one thing to note is that the 41 text links we have on the video-post site right now are the same amount that was on the page before we added these paid text links. It seems that some people have 3 word long descriptions which makes it seem that there are more text links now then what there was before. In reality it is the same amount of text links.

The price will be reduced also to $400 for an entire month versus the $500 which is currently charged now.

We want everyone to make money plain and simple and I hate hearing about anyone losing money with us. Again I would be happy to suggest alternate promoting ideas for those of you who are not doing so well with their text links.

Hit me up on ICQ 5191566 anytime.

Thanks,
DH

Sorry for the bump, been in Florida past few days. Been pretty happy with Cam's stuff, converting well and will likely renew once I get more galleries. Definitely not renewing on Videopost stuff. Disasterous results before and after all the tweaks we went through. Call it a learning experience I guess.

I have been extremely happy with the results from my campaigns with GTS. One site was not selling in a top spot I purchased and DH bent over backwards to get it to work. Now I am ranking sales off of that spot thanks to him.

:thumbsup

Are you 90% sold out? If so, do you really need this publicity?

ldinternet 02-16-2004 07:59 PM

wtf... does DH have a fur cap on backwards or is it just my imagination?

I've bought alot from GTS and I've been happy with most of the results.. I did not do well on Video-Post either, i bought a month gallery listing on videpost which only brought in a sale every 3 or so days, When I list them on my own Site which has less traffic then videopost, I can do 7 to 10 in a 24 hour period

thats very strange, video-post used to give me some high listings a while back and I would always convert on those spots. His traffic is pretty solid I wonder if things have changed.
Im gonna have test them out soon as i have had good luck in the past with this site

I've made some profit, my partner broke even+:2 cents: , no complains here, will be definetely buying some more :thumbsup

The only detail is that in the thumb package, traffic from cowlist was extremely poor, but i guess that one comes more like a bonus other than an important part of the full mad/teeniefiles/sublimepie package.

oh and different sites work with different niches, say, i had better results with some type of galleries at madthumbs, bad at teenies and so on, it would rock if you could choose to buy at 1 site only where you know you're going to convert better.

Take the new teeniesxxx/hardhut package, if you have a hardcore site to push it will work at hardhut, and suck at teeniesxxx, and viceversa if you use a softcore site. so, a shopping cart kind of thing for spots at any site in GTS would be awesome instead of the pre made packages :2 cents:

53 happy customers!

Brad Xtremepay 02-16-2004 08:33 PM

I had listings on teeniesxxx when it was free. I have to say that was the BEST traffic I have ever seen.
I bugged poor xap forever to make it paid so I could secure a listing every day. :1orglaugh
Now I don't submit. Poor guy.
