:-) do you sugest me to change it ?????????

B40 · 07-08-2002, 10:55 AM

Yeah change it to something like this "Hey Cocksucker, pull out your VISA and sign up for this site"

Gutterboy · 07-08-2002, 10:57 AM

Its real easy to judge the effectiveness of your own TGP gallery. After you've not looked at it for a while, punch in the URL and take a glance. Notice what your eyes are drawn to first.

If its the ads/links you are on the scoreboard. If its the pictures, or the white squares around them, you are sunk from the beginning. There are other factors too, like the text itself, but there is absolutely no substitute for a color scheme which pulls the attention towards the ads.

Your links are monochrome, no rollover action, and the text itself is about as uninspiring as it gets. I can get free indian pics from the damn TGP, why click on your link?

Your text links are the problem. They're in one color, no rollover action, they don't give me any incentive to click at all. I can get free indian pics from the damn TGP, why click on your link?

thanks boy will do the changes in my next gallery :-)

any more sugestions?????

That's gotta be one of the funniest text links I've seen in a while. No wonder CTR is so low.

Mind you I'm still sulking. Got a Hun listing and a good position and some fucker DOS'd a site on the server and the hun removed it before I got the htaccess up

That'll teach me to forget.

Hi tipsy can you tell me about that fucker DOS'd a site on the server

i didnot understand that

thanks

eru · 07-08-2002, 11:04 AM

1% is not-so-good for TGP's. I pull around 10% and I hear 3% is the average.

roseyrid · 07-08-2002, 11:07 AM

to be honest, your gallery is boring...try using some graphics, or make it more appealing to the eye. Do some cropping on the thumbs, and use some nice colors.
check out the biggest tgps, and look at the top 10 gallerys in each. Notice that most of them look good. sorry, but the days of 15 pics and text link are outdated.
do something unique!

A site on the server the gallery was on got hit hard by some kind of dos attack. Still trying to find out how the fuck they were doing it - logs are downloading. htaccess cured it but not for about 36 hours when I finally relaised. Hun removed the gallery from his list as I presume it wasn't loading too well most of the time.

Moral of the story is don't forget your htaccess when you put a site up/move it.

One more.

The first 10 or so links on the big TGP's are paid listings. Look at them every day and figure out why these people, despite the bandwidth costs, are able to make money while paying for listings. I'm not suggesting copying, I'm suggesting developing an intuitive feel for what sells TGP traffic.

That is how I learned to TGP. Its not like SE optimization where the pro's can hide their sucessful tricks through cloaking.

You summed it up. The top10 usually pay for the BW AND the listing. They have to convert to make any dollars at all. Don't copy them but do look and learn.

srikanth79 · 07-08-2002, 11:19 AM

thanks tipsy and boy(i don't want to ad gutter after you helped me

)
