I need to do something also.

I have about 150 of them. Members are trickling in, but not in huge numbers.

I would really like to hear from someone who is having success converting anything with them.

i'll take them off your hands .. if you have to ask "what good are these" then you'll probably waste them as you say ...

Tell me what you would do to convert mine and I'll think about giving them to you.

Just kidding.

Im seeing many members signup on a few of them... what would a group called say "gay videos" be worth with 100 members? how many members would a "large" group have?

I would have to know about the interaction in the group. The "post count".

For example, I would think a group with 50 active members creating nice keyword text conversation to be more valuable than a group with 200 registered members who are not active.

Just my opinon.

Mercury · 03-20-2005, 10:57 PM

Big groups on yahoo has about 5000-6000 members,my group has 900.Google groups wont be much different. Good thing about it, new members coming all the time, the bad thing about it most of them are leachers, that just want to see your promotion content. I see it as one more additional way to advertise your site, not sure about convertion rate, will be more wise in few months time, so I'll post my statistics.

if they are like yahoo groups its free loader central

Babaganoosh · 03-21-2005, 12:19 AM

I have a couple of really decent ones but no members yet. I guess I should do something with them but really know nothing about groups.

Steen2 · 03-21-2005, 12:20 AM

I have a few good named groups but don't know how ot get members.

Forkbeard · 03-21-2005, 01:11 AM

I have one group with about 500 members. I don't do much with it, but I've spammed it a few times with sponsor photo-and-affiliate-link. Got a sale today, so it can't be totally worthless.

wargames · 03-21-2005, 01:14 AM

I guess so.

acctman · 03-21-2005, 01:33 AM

and you wonder why some webmasters only make less than $1k a month. cause, they waste there time on this board posting every little advertising area they find.

p.s. if you find an advertising spot keep it to yourself

zentz · 03-21-2005, 02:42 AM

sell me those gay groups

jamesonxx · 03-21-2005, 02:44 AM

reynold · 03-21-2005, 04:33 AM

yeah, but the good thing about that is, there are those few and far between people that love buying shit...I get about 1-2 a day on my yahoo groups...

I have one yahoo group that consistantly makes $200-300 a month...on freeloader traffic...now I am trying to emulate that x50

JoeA · 03-21-2005, 08:06 AM

I have 3 Yahoo groups...

One is 4.5 years old and is called "Hardcore India" which has over 3000 members. I started one for Sahara last Aug/Sep which now has over 1000. These both have posts made now and again but are really handy for me to spam my various sites to surfers legally

I never touch my third group and this still has over 600 members and I only post there to promote my sites once every few months.

Most members of Yahoo groups are free loaders and only want to see the sample images I add to folders rather than pay to join the sites my groups promote but... there are the odd one or two I'm sure who do eventually pay out some cash

I also have my groups fully moderated to keep out other spammers. I have a few surfers who try to post a few pics with an invitation to join their group. I edit out their invitation and just allow the pics... LOL.

I started a Google group last year and it's done zilch... So stick to Yahoo is my advise

Damian_Maxcash · 03-21-2005, 08:13 AM

I have

gaychat
sexchat
lesbianchat
Free Sex Video
Nude Teens
ukpersonals

Never really tried with them though - Perhaps I will have a play later

i have 50 or so groups dedicated to porn stars....they are the porn stars name only, not pornstarfans or lovepornstar etc just /pornstar...and these seem to do REALLY well.....lots of fans think they are the actual porn stars official group..and I try and get the actual porn star into them when I can find them, that does even better...i always keep the front page updated with the latest stuff on the net of that pornstar, and I make pretty nice sales from it..mediumpimpin and nscash are awesome for that shit
