I dont understand how The hun, pk, al4a, book-mark keep their surfers and traffic up - GoFuckYourself.com

clickhappy · 02-12-2005, 08:08 PM

Im just using those as examples of successful sites.
How do those sites keep their bookmark traffic up and growing?

I had a site that had over 10k bookmarked viewers a day and now a few years later im down to 4k a day. But I do basically the same thing as the top sites, just add new links and switch out banners every once in a while.
But the surfers dropped off for me. How do they stick around for the big guys?

Im just looking for advice so I can do things better for myself, thanks

Did you update daily with quality content? Those guys update every day with new, fresh stuff. Though sometimes I wonder if they wouldn't be growing better if they put limits on how long their advertisers could promote the same site.

nice clean site / galleries and *hot* content

critical mass

Undisputed1 · 02-12-2005, 08:13 PM

did you redesign the site? if so they will leave, sufers dont like change....

And name recognition.

Them and Persian Kitty were the two sites I found when I first started seeing online porn. *everyone* knows what thehun.com is.

Nail those freeloaders with chained popups and dialers and toolbar installs

yes and being early in the game helps as well. Moreover, caring for their surfer (as in the case of the Hun) Im sure helped a whole lot in building surfer loyalty and viral references.

Caring for the surfers, clean, and asskicking content will do it.

Fukeneh · 02-13-2005, 01:05 AM

because they dont fuck around. if its not broke, dont fix it.

Jamie · 02-13-2005, 02:06 AM

It's an interesting question you bring up

My friend and I were just talking about this very thing. Let me know when you have the answer

V_RocKs · 02-13-2005, 03:19 AM

Let me put it to you this way, you didn't get into the net back in 96 or 97 when you could have been one of only 10 sites of quality, updated content. So your only choice now is to go the non-bookmarker route and do the shit with skimmed trades. So start cracking.

Vitasoy · 02-13-2005, 03:20 AM

They don't fuck around and their sufers know what to get every day.
