Those looking to build a good TGP submission list: here you go
You're looking to fire up a good tgp list then? Great. Instead of asking guys like me if I'd be willing to hand over my list to you, why not try building your own? You may THINK that by getting someone else's list it will save you time... it won't. My list works for me, not you. My list has partner account codes that are mine, not yours. The TGP owners are expecting galleries from me under those accounts, not you.
So here you go, step by step. If you're smart, you'll read it. If you're intelligent, you'll do it. *Be advised, the following is for a good hand-submit list, so focus on the largest tgp's out there for this one. For the rest, buy an auto-submitter, I'm sure someone can recommend you a good one.
- Start scoping out TGPs. Open up a browser, type in oh, say... w w w dot worldsex dot com..... and go there. Find the submission or webmasters link, and click that. Now bookmark that submit page. Up top in your browser, find "favorites" and click it, then click "add to favorites".... you may want to also create a new folder in your bookmarks called "TGP Submits".
- Now that you have your first tgp bookmarked, go back to the worldsex main page, and find out who he's trading with. See those textlinks to other sites? Those are TGP's!! Click on them, and repeat the above first step on each of them. Also check out who those sites are ttrading with, and keep on adding tgp after tgp to your list. Remember to add their SUBMIT pages only.
- Add in thehun.net's submit page as well. He doesn't trade with anyone, so you'll have to do it separate.
- OPTIONAL: make up a special html page, and put links to all of the tgp submit pages on it. Upload it to one of your sites, and bookmark the page so you don't forget where it is. Also, on that page, group the TGP submit links so they match up with your recip pages. That is, if you always put Worldsex on the same recip page as Shemp and Snakesworld, then group those three together on your new submission list page.
- Once you have a sizeable list of TGP's (50 to 100 is plenty), fire up a gallery, make sure it's a good one, make sure it is clean and within standard tgp rules. No fancy scripts on it, no bullshit delayed popups or timed redirects etc etc. Then, create your recip pages for it, and submit it to each and every tgp you bookmarked. Tomorrow, do the same, most of the larger tgp's only accept one gallery per day. Some only accept one gallery every 3-4 days. Follow the rules.
- Repeat: Follow the rules.
- Keep an eye on which TGP's list you. One way to do this is be checking your server logs, another way is to have a 3rd party counter at the bottom of your gallery, so you can tell who is listing you and who isn't. This is not an instantaneous process people..... have some fucking patience. Submit a gallery a day to your list for a few months, and keep tabs on who isn't listing you at all.
- If you feel your galleries are exceptional, try looking on the submit pages of those tgp's that aren't listing you, for a way to request a partner account, or else email the tgp owner. Say something like "I've been submitting good galleries to you for a few months now but haven't had much luck getting listed, I was wondering if you could take a look at a few and let me know what I might be doing wrong"..... and provide links to 3 or 4 of your galleries. If you don't hear back, maybe it's time to drop those ones and find other tgp's to fill those gaps.
- After submitting for months and months, and dropping TGP's that won't list you and adding in new ones that will..... you will find that eventually you have a good working list that will generate from 50k to 300k+ uniques per day to your gallery pages.
Of course you can supplement this in a number of ways, like buying a tgp auto-submitter, and you can shorten your submission worktime by paying someone like $5submissions to do it for you. You can even hire a designer to make up your galleries for you if you're really pressed for time.
And lastly, is it worth it to submit? The answer to that is.... yes, IF the person answering knows what they're doing. All others will say no it's a waste of time or only for newbs. Remember, most paysite owners would love (kill) to have several good gallery submitting affiliates working on their behalf. A 100K uniques per day times 10 webmasters = a million uniques a day to the galleries, which WILL translate into many thousands of clicks through to the paysite itself. If the site is converting on average at only 1:800, that can mean anywhere from 10 to 30 or 40 signups a day (or more), depending. Trust me, there are paysite owners salivating over this as you read it.
Try it, and decide for yourself if it is worth it or not. Don't submit for a week and then quit, you can't gather an informed opinion by that. Do it full-bore for six months or don't do it at all.
