Should galleries drive traffic to your affiliate site, or direct to sponsors?
 

Hi,

I wanted get some webmasters' opinions on the following. I have recently been submitting some galleries to a fairly large TGP service that attracts quite a few visitors.

At the top of each gallery, I have my logo (that logo leads to a similar-themed blog that I run - the blog doesn't contain galleries, but text and image based blog posts with affiliate links. My blogs perform well using organic traffic - my conversation rate is quite good. But my galleries alot of traffic and I'm thinking if I could use the galleries to drive traffic to my blogs. Though the more direct way of making sales would be placing a bunch of links to the join pages of my sponsors.

Here is a sample gallery: http://www.tonsilwhores.com/gallerie...-throated.html

My question is the following: In a situation like this - is it better to use my galleries to drive traffic directly to my sponsors, which seems like the first choice instinctively and would bring more sponsor join hits - or should I also try to use my gallery traffic to gain some loyal visitors to my blogs - even though the chances of a sale are reduced in the short term?


I appreciate any input, thanks.

to sponsor my opinion.. however you'll find that most good TGPs will not accept your gallery as is. Read again their rules...
