How long to wait before shitcanning a trade? - GoFuckYourself.com

I'm new to the TGP biz, well fairly new to the biz in general, i've been setting up some trades for my tgp site, I specifically chose ones that have no bottom limit so that I could maximize what traffic I have without wasting it (i found them on findtraffic.com), I'm just wondering how long I should send out hits without getting any back before I get concerned that they have decided not to trade with me.

Also I noticed I had a good one going for awhile and now i'm still sending traffic to this site but they're not sending any back, i never got an email saying they deleted the trade or anything.. should I delete it?

Don't start any trades with out talking to the webmasters first, you will just lose hits, contact them and ask how much the can trade per hour, agree to force like 100 hits per hour, keep looking at all your new trades the first hour, because there are allways some there say the can trade xxxxx but when you check the have set like 5 hits.

But if you need help with tgp just contact me on my icq, have been running tgp sites for 4 years now.

I normally try for couple days (weeks if it's a really huge site) .

Thanks for the hint, although i just found out today that someone had deleted my trade and they didnt notify me, i guess UCJ cant send a 2 line email to the webmaster_addy to tell the person the trade was deleted?

If you've sent over a hundred already freeze the trade. Check tomorrow if they've sent you anything back... if they have continue the trade. If not just delete it.

For your other question... if they've stopped sending traffic back. Check if there sites down or not. If not check to see when they stopped sending. If its for over a day just delete them.

Also make sure you read the rules on the traders pages. Some of them want you to contact them before they even activate the trade.
