riiiiiiigggggggghhhhhhht, the 18+ section is full of watermarked pics, I don't think by "advertasing" he meant dropping links left and right, do it smart and you might make a few $$

lol, no.

You just need to know their language, be prepared for a bit of abuse, and package the spam well. Get those things down, and they're not dangerous at all.

I'll admit I'm a bit of an oldfag (to use their "language") and perhaps if you hit up /s/ or /hc/ (both have WAY less traffic than /b/) with some watermarked pics sparingly you MAY get some extra traffic but odds are it will just end up on /r/ or /rs/ which is the most likely outcome, making you nothing but some brand awareness and a lot of stolen content with a ton of extra p2p seeders.

keep in mind these are young guys who are pretty tech savvy who are very very aware of tubes and more importantly p2p and rapidshare etc. So best case you could become a stronger brand with this experiment (suicide girls are pretty popular there). But I still wouldn't risk anything more overt less you get toasted.

As an experiment go ahead and submit this thread to /b/ and see what happens, bamp it a few times and troll yourself for good measure. hell i'll help and spread it to the other large chans. I can guess the outcome though and to be honest would be pretty lulzy but not advisable..

But as I said, knock yourself out DO IT FAGGOT (sound familiar?). There are waaaaay better ways to do this on social networks while avoiding the chans and the associated risk all together. Just giving my

to those looking for a quick buck. Bottom line IMHO spam chans at your own risk.

To be honest, I usually spam them far more openly. And on /b/, not the others.

The trick is to be somewhat honest. Don't pretend it's someone else's site, but instead make clear it's yours and ask for feedback/opinions/whatever.

Expect a fair amount of trolls and abuse - getting that is a given. But if you make it clear you're not a drive-by spammer but just a regular btard who happens to make sites, the reaction generally is fairly positive. Especially if you give something back - like a dump of your favorite images from a certain niche.

Gotcha! I figured that the average GFY spammer would do something like anontalk and trigger, well judging buy your comments, you know what happened with that

. Wasn't pretty.

But you are correct if you hit them straight up they are surprisingly reasonable. My comments weren't directed towards your approach but to those "enterprising" spammers who would just write a bot to flood comment spam, which is what I'm mainly advising against.

Yeah, that type of spam can have rather... destructive effects.

The anontalk thing was funny, though. I think at some point anontalk itself, 4chan, 7chan and ED all melted, iirc?

Yup they all went down hard. The funniest thing was just a few days ago when /b/ took down itself over boxxy. In any case, we are in total agreement and its nice to see some /b/ in muh GFY.

It's like being locked in a room with a bunch of 13-year-olds who are drinking Mountain Dew and eating Hershey Bars.

I did a drive by on /b/ last night and the first thing I saw was some idiot who had cut the head off a kitten and taken pictures of it. Then he apparently jacked-off on it, put out a cigarette on it, and then dumped it in the snow. All accompanied by pics, of course.

Yeah, this is how I've done it a few times... they are especially handy for my hentai sites if I can't immediately identify a movie or character that I want to post, I go to /b/ or the hentai board and ask them. Usually get the answer within moments, and usually ALSO get asked to post the gallery when I'm done, hah.

I also have a website based on one of the 4chan memes, and I've gone to the boards asking for feedback, etc, and have received maybe two negative comments and tons of support.

Basically, if you don't actually have anything to say or ask and just drive-by spam they'll probably jump on your ass, and rightly so. But I actually hang out on 4chan plenty and the generic spam annoys me to no end when it shows up in a thread I'm reading, so I would never do it myself.

Oh, and to whoever asked for his contact info, I'm pretty sure it's just moot at 4chan dot org.

Also I rarely see ads... unless they have sneaky deals with someone who is brokering brand awareness to Dial Soap (etc). I'd believe it.

Jayvis · 01-22-2009, 02:11 PM

See, the thing a lot of people do not understand about 4chan is that it is filled with some of the brightest internet programmers/designers/viral marketers/computer geniuses you'll ever find in one place. But it is hard to realize this when you can barely look past all of the bad publicity, the bad things that go on there, the reputation it has, etc. As smart as they are, they use the forum as a place to release teh funnayz and for trolling (most of the time).

Someone in this thread earlier mentioned that it is good to check on sites like this to see the swinging trends of the internet, much like digg, reddit, etc. A lot of people that use internet lingo probably don't even realize that it was originated from 4chan, which is a true testament to their viral marketing abilities.

As for advertising on there, I wouldn't waste my time. Advertising on 4chan is like pissing into a sea of piss. Like I said, they're too tech savvy and are the poster children and advocates of not paying for anything.

Not trying to defend them, there's a lot of insane stuff that goes on there, but more or less trying to educate those that may not be aware.

Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life · 01-22-2009, 02:29 PM

All I have to say is that if you can't find a way to monetize such a large flow of seemingly unmoderated traffic, you have no business calling yourself a marketer. 4chan is a great place to initiate a quick flow of viral traffic. Offer the tards something of value to their interests, work a viral aspect into your landing page, and watch the traffic roll the fuck in.

something repeatedly that he thinks is funny,
even though it's not, and is in fact, really
childish, irritating, and/or racist...

it came from 4chan.

its nice to see computer geeks
