link list
 

How long does it take for a link list to make money,or if its really going to make money. i dont like to hear the bs stories some webmasters give ya i want the straight up truth.Thanks a million

I've seen it work around 3 to 6 months - be patient

Depends on how willing you are to do what it takes to build it up, how well you advertise your sponsors and most of all how you feed it

About 2-4 months, maybe a little longer.

IMO, if you're turning profit on anything within 3-6 months you should be happy. When I weigh my investments I usually use 6 months as a goal.

How many categories are you using?

2-3 months :glugglug

should be no longer than 3 months

Thank you all i appreciate all the responses.Its been up since february and has a pr4 ranking and making no money at all.So i may have to try something else

takes time but you wont make money

because there is no money in this business

yea, you might wanna play around with it a little more.

barter never give up.. keep trying new shit and different angles.. think outside the box

bater can you hit me up on icq#121747195 ?

I know how frustrating it could be. I would suggest the same thing babagirls said....switch things up a bit. You should be doing that anyway. Try switching were you place ads, try different niches of ads. You can try replacing a banner or something with a very well written text link. A lot of surfers are immune to banners so a text link just might catch their eye.

I use every category in the link list and tried different things its just not working maybe i should sell the domain.

how much traffic are you getting a day, how many sales?

dude leave your contact info I might have an idea for you....

I get about 5000 hits a day and no sales ever

give it up, dude ;) i am doing same since 1.5 years now... earned maybe 50 bucks and spend about 500.
there is no money in this biz anymore, as long you dont have a name ;)
now i do it just for fun. cos i like the business. and my daytime job gives me the money i need to live.

I started a Link List about Oct. of last year and it is going to be a year now and I do allright but nothing to big. I think it takes time, with Link List your biggest hope is to get into the SE and then you can really do well. I base it on how many pages I have on my site. I build new ones all the time, SE rich text to get listed on good keywords. I also started out doing Free Sites and getting those listed all over. It all takes work and time.

Why don't you post a link to your link list?
I've run them before in the past and will offer some suggestions.

Which link list is yours? I'll start submitting if I don't already.

I'm just now building up my own link list and one of the main reasons I'm doing so is to use the traffic in whatever way I want. For example, I can send the traffic to my own free sites and review pages.

3 months

I see if your not already a name in the business you dont have a chance cause the business is already flooded

thats the point. and dont give a cent on the words in all the webmaster boards. everybody just want to sell his own things. i am not sure, but i bet at least 80% of all gfy users are same like you and me. dont earn really much in this busines. how can you write more than 3000 posts here??? you must have a lot of free time. and if you are working professional i think you need to spend at least 14 hours/day to your job.
sure... everybody says i earn $3000 and up per month. but is it true? only words to make themselves important. there is really no money in link lists, tgp/mgp´s galleries or whatever. maybe in paysites. but thats too expencive for me.

so forget all the guys here. they dont make anything different then we both. stop... one difference there is. they tear up their mouthes and shout. but thats all.

people earn 3k in a week no prob.. even easier to earn it in a month..

you just gotta push what makes you the most profit..

there's people that do mailers and make that much in a day - that's one of the reason how you can post 100+ posts on gfy daily..

do you do so, sake? if yes... send me a pm and explain me how to do. i lost the trust in all words here.
:1orglaugh easy to write. but hard to do.

I think you guys are all jsut sulking in your own failures, trying to think up an excuse or two is to why you can't make decent money.

nothing's hard to accomplish you just gotta have goals and most importantly reach them, surpass them..

nothing can be taught/learned overnight.. takes time, patience, hardwork..

ok... i will show you the stats of one of my sponsors now. it is just an example... so i think it isn´t so hard to get traffic. this example shows WEGCash. but all other sponsors have the same ratio. i really dont know what i am doing wrong, if you earn money. i dont earn. and i accepted it. what i do now is to continue. cos i like to play. thats all.
here the stats:

all traffic is generated thrue TGP (bannerclicks) and galleries. so do you think there is still money in this biz?

give us a link to your site, we can help point out things that we think can help.

Thank you all for the help.
