Free VS Paid

what are the advantages of paid TGP/MGP listings over free spots or vice versa. The cost thing is obvious but what makes people buy a spot when they can get it for free?

discuss

Guaranteed. I guess that is the appeal. But I am curious on link buying too. Most people say it's not worth it, but then I see spots bought all the time.

I find it humorous that TGP's raped submitters for years, built their sites on their collective work, then turns around and charges em for listings.

Paid either has a guarenteed placement or a better chance of placement.
Paid is listed higher up on the list than free.

most sales on a TGP come in the the top 1/3 of the page...
its not just a matter of getting listed, placement is important..

very few are worth the cost, some tgp's are built for the sole reason of collecting $ from submitters because the owners know it's not worth trying to make $ from the traffic themselves

there are some exceptions of course, and the prices on those are usually quite reasonable
