How's TGP2 Doing nowadays? Any of you guys use it? - GoFuckYourself.com

Greg B · 03-15-2004, 12:34 PM

I remember when TGP2 started and someone contacted me about it. To tell you the truth it worked like a charm.

Then things got shakey and I guess the industry debugged itself.

As for consistency, I have old TGP2 galleries that still go strong and I had submitted them years ago. Every now and then they'll pop up and send good traffic.

I don't do it often but will make some new TGP2 galleries to submit.

Pound for pound I have to admit in the short and long run it was worth the time and effort. So if the TGP2 industry has finally gotten on course I would check it out for sure.

Jimmer · 03-15-2004, 01:09 PM

Greg, check us out because we love your galleries.

You'll find that Tgp2 is 99% rock solid.

4Pics · 03-16-2004, 01:24 AM

you'll also find it is 99% without any real traffic.

Maybe - but who gives a stuff when you can still get sales.

Besides who said TGP traffic was any better - a few people I talk to suggest that 50% of TGP traffic is hitbot generated.

Think again. Yeah we don't have the traffic that tgp does but it is not 99% less either.

Tgp2 can convert 30 times better then tgp. Plus 17% to 20% clickthru's with Tgp2 as compared to the 2% to 4% with tgps.

I am considering starting a tgp2 but there are only a few sponsors with hosted tgp2 galleries.

sorry, but from what i've read it is not like you said.
yes, it can convert 30 times better, but only when you consider traffic sent to gallery.
so, in other words, it may convert 3 times better than tgp traffic and the ctr is 10 tims better --> it converts 30 times better

I know you are the tgp2 guy but I think you made a wrong statement

polish_aristocrat · 03-16-2004, 02:44 PM

What should I say if I have nothing to add to this thread, but I'd like to see others to respond...

hmmm....

BUMP

Steve · 03-16-2004, 03:15 PM

TGP2 galleries do generate sales, but it is hard to get enough traffic to them.

I loved TGP2 - I think it is a great idea

But I make more money, faster, with TGP/MGP.

Sorry but there is nothing wrong with my statement.. This wasn't anything I dreamed up. This was research done by other well know webmasters.

Yes, it can convert as high as 30 times better.
I don't know about you or anyone else but I would rather have one or two sales from 1k of traffic Tgp2 then one or two sales from 30k of tgp traffic..

Ash@phpFX · 03-16-2004, 06:43 PM

ill have to do some more investiagtion into this, who else has some experience with TGP2?

hoe_vender · 03-16-2004, 06:53 PM

sorry I am no help

Fletch XXX · 03-16-2004, 06:56 PM

I have TGP2 style galleries set up for affiliates.

Either the full 15 pic version with pics on html pages, or I have 5 pic versions with pics on pages.

Using ccbill link codes variable &HTML=http://www.url.com

you can link them

plenty more on the way.

Jimmer · 03-16-2004, 10:53 PM

You can ask Voltar from Cloudcash about the results of his test.
Some of these people who are giving up on thier TGPs could easily connvert them to TGP2 and not have to do any reviewing using the rotator from tgp2traffic.com.

rowan · 03-16-2004, 10:58 PM

How about galleries with only one full sized pic?

http://www.prettynetgirls.com/main.php

(yes, I know it's really just a picpost... but it skims and it's also a thumb preview)

Jimmer · 03-16-2004, 11:13 PM

I like it ^

Paul · 03-16-2004, 11:14 PM

Anyone have a good updated list of TGP2 websites ?

Lycanthrope · 03-17-2004, 01:58 AM

Right, I don't have many posts, so who gives a fuck what I have to say. Yes, I'm fairly new to this board, but not to the industry and have made just as many mistakes as the rest of you...

It is too bad I don't have a log from our TGP2 workshop chat last week because it contained a lot of good ideas and answers to a lot of these questions. The best place to start digging up infor on TGP2 is http://www.tgp2.net.

Anyhell - no, you won't see the amount of traffic with tgp2 that you will with tgp, but you don't need to! The quality of traffic is between that of se and tgp traffic, with a push closer toward se traffic, which everyone knows converts a hell of alot better than tgp galleries. TGP2 galleries, especially those that have the big images on html are also quite se friendly and will be found down the road...

I've played w/ TGP2 off and on for a couple of years now with mixed results. However, like most of you, am sick of all the free porn out there and dwindling sales so a few months ago I did a few of my own tests to compare tgp / tgp2 conversions. With the same content and same basic designs (I made 10 galleries, in various niches, with various sponsors) I was 1 / 1000+ with tgp and 1 /127 with the tgp2 versions. I was 1 / 47 with one tgp2 gallery (a gallery that I'm still getting sales on) that did 1 / 800 with its tgp equivalent. Maybe not 30 times better in this instance, but significant none the less. The fact you can advertise more and show less is a no brainer as to why conversions are better.

The basic theory that less is more is what tgp2 is about, and is what is proven, at least to tgp2 ers, day in and day out.

As a result of these tests and the fact that I had 2 near ten k a day and some smaller tgps generating only a few sales each week pushed me all the way over to TGP2. I've also changed other things like ditched my trade scripts and am now concentrating on quality of traffic, not quantity. I'm getting that many sales on pics of the day right now...

Like tgp, hosted tgp2 galleries do NOT do as well as made galleries, and no there isn't a lot of them, but, like Jimmer said, use the rotator till you make enough of your own. Use what is available as filler. Spend your time building and submitting galleries instead of babysitting your site. Submitting to the tgp2 gallery pool alone will make you money over time - but no, it won't be overnight. Once you have enough of your own, rotate them in, create a "hall of fame" section, whatever...

Everyone that builds free sites and / or galleries owes it to themselves to at least try it out, (in only takes a few more minutes to make a tgp2 gallery - which is nothing more than a small free site w/ out the entrance page and traffic sucking recips) but like I said, give it some time - it can take 2 weeks to a month to have your galleries cycle through the rotator - but when it does, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
