Lets talk Trades [Business Thread]
 

For those TGP/MGP owners
whats a good trade.
Out of these to which would you keep


150% Prod but a 200% return
80% Prod but a 30% return

The frist trade has a better prod but the ratio of clicks to hits out is bellow 100%
The second has a poor prod, but you arent sending much of a return back.


If you had both on your TGP which would you dump?
Or would you keep both

Do you mesaure the quality of trades by thier prod or by the ratio of prod to return ?

A good trade is going up by the hour. Needless to say a trade should be over minimum 100%. I dump a trade with I can't stand looking at the stats anymore or it looks fishy :)

Oh btw... quality ALWAYS matters.

You have an ICQ
I have to talk to you about a site in your sig

sad, biz thread gets no action... :(

I hold a top 100 on my site, and all trades stay. If they don't send me jack, my script doesnt send jack back.... I'm not a standard TGP/MGP though.... :2 cents:

I prefer a trade like 150% Prod but a 200% return, but I' might keep a trade like 80% Prod but a 30% return. As long as it doesn't have a bunch of crappy categories that don't do my site any good. I'm not knocking category sites, I just don't want to see any beast or incest shit when I go to a trade.

Most of your sites bite comes from bookmarkers. And like DaLord said (hi Mike), quality does matter. If you want good traffic, you have to trade with good sites.

:2 cents: I couldnt agree with this more.... I typically also look for a site that at least has some kind of toplist....
