about sponsor links on a gallery - GoFuckYourself.com

Tam · 02-05-2001, 03:30 PM

Ok, if I have 15 pics on a gallery...... and I have one banner on it for one sponsor....... then I put a text link to all the other sites this sponsor has, is this cool or a no-no? Like ars, maxcash.... any of those type sponsors that have a bunch of different sites..... is it cool with most tgps if you put links to all the other sites as long as they are all with the same sponsor? I have always wondered about this.......

Thanks,
Tam

Tam - I did that a while back (about a year ago) and didn't have any problems with it but I have since found that having no more than 2 different options for the surfer yields the best results.

Tam · 02-05-2001, 03:38 PM

well for the past year or more, I have given the asshole surfers no more than 2 choices and that didn't seem to work, so I thought I'd give this a shot..... I see ALOT of people doing very well with tgp traffic but I have yet to have more than maybe one or max 2 signups for one gallery.. so I am trying different things. LOL

Thanks for replying... I appreciate the feedback on this.

Tam, I know you already know this but, not everything works the same for everyone. It all depends on your traffic, the way you make your galleries, and like 20 other things.. So if you tried 1 method and it didnt do as well as you liked it to, try your new method and see what happens..
Well this didnt help you at all did it...

Well actually Lightning, it did help me...... my main concern was whether the TGPs would list the gallery if I did that or not......... At this point I suppose it doesn't hurt to try about anything as long as no rules are broken.....

I fear the answer is fairly basic .. TRAFFIC.
It doesn't matter if it's the best gallery on the planet, if nobody see's it you won't earn, the obverse obviously applies

fredicus...... sometimes the most basic of things gives me the hardest time... I always think of everything is complicated and look for that, and miss the simple and basic things......... LOL

Thanks, that made ALOT of sense.

I've always had best luck pushing just one sponser per gallery. If I'm making a gallery of a black woman, I put an ad for a black site, no need to mention the teen site the sponser has.

I also use the "personal testimony" style, talking about how I love this site and no other site is as good. Adding a "but here's some other stuff" would detract from it I think.

Instead of the 2nd banner that most TGP's allow I use a search box or email box. Down low on the page. Makes the gallery look nice and clean.

Make sure the sponsors and the pics compliment each other. Don't advertise a granny site with amateur pics or vice versa.

I think you actually get more sign-ups when you use the free content from a site you are advertising. If the surfer likes that content and wants to see more, they know they will find it at your sponsor link. For example, I advertise for Busty Amateurs. When I use non-BA amateur pics that I have the license to, I sell less memberships than when I use the BA content.

Rictor, I tend to agree with you for the fact you can promote them by saying this is a taste of what you get here, yada, yada, yada.... and all that. BUT alot of tgps won't list you if you use what they like to refer as "overused sponsor content" so that leaves us in a pickle, no?

As for one niche pics matching the same niche sponsor... I have done that too.... maybe it's not meant for me to make over one and at most 2 signups on one gallery........ Who knows. I have all but given up on galleries....... for the second time. LOL

Remember, you don't have to ACTUALLY get the content from the sponser to pretend you do. 15 pics from a David Lace cd could just as easily be from "Teen Steam" as anyone. Hell, the images are probably in there somewhere.

Also there's lots of sponser content that's just plain shitty, not a great testament to quality.

Tam · 02-08-2001, 02:35 PM

Warphead.... well yes I suppose you are right... I don't have my creative head on today.... Rude Bitch has been in a pissing match all damn day, so I am not and wasn't thinking..... DUH!!!!!

I have some great lesbian and teen content I got from that weird lpzip guy... LMAO I guess that could as easily be from some lezbo and teen sites huh? DUH!!! See? I told you the simplest things throw me for a loop.

Thanks babe,
Tam
