link lists a thing of the past?
 

Are link lists a thing of the past? It seems everyone wants to start a tgp instead of a link list, and link lists get much better conversions and click through ratios then tgps

TGPs are just really trendy right now. Every newbie and their momma has a TGP with 100% hosted galleries these days. Link lists would be more popular if sponsors provided "hosted link list galleries". They do not, and that is part of the reason why you dont see as many newbies building link list sites.

There's some that do.

There's a list of them on my site if you're interested. Check the column that says "hosted free sites?"

If I remember correctly at one time everyone and their brother had link list at one time.

I think it changes from year to year.

:winkwink:

it's much easier to build up traffic for a tgp/mgp. as well as put up links in it. link lists just take too much time to build.

but still, this just means their traffic is better because it's not full of blind hits.

It's the evolution of a competitive industry
