What to do when your surfers become smart?
 

I have many searches for terms like "www domain com" site:www.domain.com " on my tgp galleries domains obviously from surfers looking to find all my galleries and not looking to pay any $...

any ideas on what to do about it? i can't really think of any...

I play on thier stupidity even more.

Give them less free porn!

you could block SE traffic :1orglaugh

kill them all and get new surfers.

I will find their #, call them up and say "i will double anal you if you dont sign up...biatchhhh".

get smarter

bro did you break ur pact?

haha yeah good idea

Nail them with more pop ups and toolbar installs and some spyware :Oh crap

Make a hub page with links to your different galleries + more advertising... as long as you aren't giving away the money shot in each one eventually some of those surfers will signup. Or you could do a fake tgp type setup, same idea.

yes... :(
several times

yeah but how do i only nail the freeloaders? that's the only problem :)

404 is one way

you can setup a mod rewrite for google traffic coming from a referrer like

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...oogle+S earch

and nail them to a dialer page, as it was previously suggested.

Are they browsing into your galleries from your main page, or directly from the SE?

from the se...
they're serching for like: 'site:domain.com/galleries'

OK then, well it's pretty easy to pare that down. You create an .htaccess file that says "if they come from one of these se's, and if they go directly into this gallery directory, use mod_rewrite to send them to my signup/tour page starting point". If you want I can post you a template here.

bah how long did u go atleast?

that'd be great

umm couple of days.. i decided i'll just try to lower the times per day for now lol

that cracked me up hehe

This works in Apache. You might need to tinker a bit depending on your circumstances. "---" are comments meant for you, don't include them in the file. Obviously, you want to put the correct domain names in. PUT THIS IN THE DIRECTORIES YOU WANT TO PROTECT, NOT ABOVE THEM.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://SE-domain.com/ [NC] [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://www.SE-domain.com/ [NC] [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://some-other-SE-domain.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://www.some-other-SE-domain.com/ [NC] ---and so forth...---
RewriteRule /* http://www.mydomain.com/payupfreeloader.html [R,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^Mozilla.* [NC] ---this helps keep the autodownloader traffic to a minimum---
RewriteRule /* http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/agent.html [R,L]

thanks..
i'll try this and i'll also talk to my hosting support about this..
