What happens when you use sponsor content?
 

I promote a niche and have about 65 sets of my own pics, and im almost out of them.

I could buy more, at my expense, or I could switch to a sponsor who gives out their content to promote their sites.

If I use their content, am I using the same content that a bunch of other people are using, and not get listed that often, or can you get pretty good results from using content that sponsor gives out?

Depends.

It's a big mixture.. Some webmasters that seem to be able to market well can get away with using old or new content. With so many different places to get traffic from it doesn't seem to really effect the ratios for most webmasters. Still, it would seem best to try and grab the newest released webmaster content first. :)

Depends on the newness of the content?

many years ago when I was doing TGP galleries, sponsors content got me listed all the time on many big TGPs and NOT listed on many big TGPs, so it depends on the TGP/LL owners, the freshness of the content, the sponsor (I'd suggest getting content form not so well known sponsor) etc
