I've been out of the TGP business for a long time but I've started dabbling in it again for promoting CuteCouples. It seems nearly impossible to get a significant amount of traffic to a gallery, anymore. I've applied for partner accounts all over the place and 75% of the sites never get back to me. I had one or two rejections which is a fucking laugh since I have only high-quality movie galleries with exclusive content. In short, I seriously don't see how any one makes any noticable amount of money in TGPs these days without being connected from the inside.
Is it still possible for a newbie to make, say, $2K/month with gallery submissions? $1K/month? I don't see how. I know a lot of people in this business but since I haven't dealt with TGPs in a while, I don't know the right people in that portion of the industry. I can't see how someone could just come in off the streets and make money doing this anymore. I remember when you could start from scratch with submissions and be making money in a week.
I'm just surprised at how useless gallery building seems to have become as a way of earning money. Everyone likes to sneer at gallery submitters but that's like the entry-level job in this industry and it seems to have almost completely dried up. Am I way off base on this? I mean, I make decent galleries with exclusive content, I don't cheat, I don't redirect, I don't fuck with surfers and I don't change galleries after they've been listed but even I can't seem to build up any traffic with galleries these days. Thank goodness CuteCouples doesn't depend on my ability to get galleries listed.
There seems to be a small core of site owners who control all the TGP traffic and if you don't know them personally, you're fucked. I seriously doubt anyone could make a living with gallery submitting these days if they had to start from scratch.
I wish I had kept in touch after I stopped operating TGPs. I don't even know who to talk to in the TGP business these days. Someone put me in touch with the right people so I can stop spinning my wheels. I'd forgotten how much gallery submitting sucks.
