Bump for the lunch crowd that eat in front of their computers.

Right and it is all 404 traffic from jpg's and gif's...

Totally useless!

Had a conversation with Fris on ICQ...

He does indeed run high quality, large numbers blogs...

I retract my quoted statement.

It was made out of a newbs disbelief... like most retracted statements are...

bump for those who don't update regular enough

I am sure he is a cool guy but this is GFY and drama is cool.

That is what I am talking about...

Update you damn blogs.

What do I need to do to get

http://www.busty-amateurs2.com/blog/
and http://www.995boobs.com/blogs/ listed on your blog?

G

I will open up trades next week.

[QUOTE=TheSenator]I am removing blog trades that haven't updated their blogs in over a month.
If you trade with me already and update consistently, please bump this thread. If I removed you by accident just ICQ me.

Your blog seems very slow to load... I'm on a fast connection but it took over 30 seconds..

Also I had a thought that it seems pretty shit that you are removing trades that haven't updated for 1 month. Even if that website is linking back to you, I could understand it if the site is offline or dead but if the owner is still paying for hosting then who are you to judge how often they update their sites.. Providing you gain some sort of boost either by potential visitors or PR what does it matter. I understand webspace matters so just move the slow sites around and give the bigger sites a greater slice of the pie..

fidy dead blogs

Are you serious? Do you know anything about blogging or how search engines work?
For the most part, you need an active(adding content) adult site so that you can place better in search engines.

Just take a look at Google. Search for "porn" and you will find sites that are updated daily.

Everybody that I traded with knows that I check to see if they have an active blog. Static blogs produce crap.

If they can't afford to update their blogs because of hosting fees then they are in the wrong business.

Oh and BTW is this your site.... http://www.naked-exhibitionist.com/

lol

Wow, I should start a thread like this... I could make my post count go up by 100 and not even be saying anything. LOL

Is it that hard to post a post once in a while?

Damn, a blog is a not a blog if it is not updated.

Wow.. This is one of the stupidist things I've read in a long time.. The reason all those sites rank so high is because they've got a shitload of inbound links and their PR is high, not because they update often. Any site with a high PR and a shitload of inbound links will almost always outrank a lower PR site that updates every day. Don't buy into the misinformation that PR doesn't matter anymore...

Don't miss quote me. I said "for the most part".

I am sure updating everyday has a positive effect on placement.

Of course inbound links have a positive effect too.

The PR thing is tricky because you can have a high PR and your site may be listed at the bottom or 2nd page results.

Take "anal sex" for instance on Google.

The first listing is a PR4 site and the 6th listing is a PR6 site.

The 10th listing has a PR0 http://eteamz.active.com/doanalsex/ WTF???

Well my point was that you were making it seem like you can't get a high ranking unless you update all the time and that's simply not true otherwise all those static pages that rank high wouldn't be there. There are pages that haven't changed for years and rank #1 for some terms simply because they have the right text on them and they have a shitload of inbound links, with a ton of them using the proper anchor text.

Take the search term MILFs on google.. The guy who has that milf.com site is apparently an SEO guy and has a shit load of those types of pages out there... his site is a 4 and it rarely changes. Having said that, it has changed a little since the last time I looked at it. A couple half hidden links have been added etc. But, it ranks higher than the hoes page which is a PR 6 and updates every couple days. Why? The page is about MILFs. It links to predominately milf sites. The majority of inbound links will probably use milfs in the anchor text. Probably a lot of the inbound links are also from milf related sites.. and it has the term in the domain. Thus, it ranks higher than a PR 6 site. Note that the current recip links on hoes for that page use the term MILF and not MILFs. hoes does rank higher than the milf.com site for the term MILF.

Yes, updating every day can have a positive effect on your ranking, but it's only 1 of about 6-7 things that affect your rank. I have yet to see a lower PR site that updates every day dominate the serps simply because it updates every day.. but I have seen pages that dominate almost strictly because of their PR even if the page isn't about the search phrase but happens to contain the words from the phrase. In order to get that PR, you need inbound links. Who cares if those inbound links are from blogs that never change. It's an inbound link that is positive for your PR.

As opposed to deleting those trades, a smarter thing would be to "penalize" them by moving them way down on the page so that they don't get as much traffic (since they probably won't be sending as much due to not updating). Keep the active blogs up top. That way you continue to get the benifit of the inbound link. Of course replacing them with better PR and incoming traffic sites is always the best option.

Bump ........ still listed :thumbsup

while the "shitload of links" method works in yahoo/msn, google is an entirely different creature. it's all about relavancy.

Deleting the blogs, imho isn't the right thing to do, he should penilize them like you said, but newsflash! it's his site and he can chose to remove shit if he wants. at least he's letting people know.
