Some People Know How To Run A TGP and MGP
 

It never ceases to amaze me how you can actually run into someone who knows what they're doing.

Sometimes you can get listed in a big name TGP and all you get is burned bandwidth. Then all of a sudden you listen to the gallery makers and get listed with a not so big named TGP and miracles occur.

Quality is the keyword here. Quality traffic and quality niche traffic.

Some guys know how to maximize their TGPs so when you submit a gallery and it get's in YOU win as well.

Yep that is true. Bit most dont.

i got some smaller quality tgps if u want to submit or trade traffic . Some of my sites send more than the big guys with 1/10th of the traffic beleive it or not .

Contact me on icq i would like to trade with you.

Yes. Some 'smaller' TGPs can even make more money than the bigger ones. Or at least when you sum up the traffic, they make more together.

The key is not to list a bunch of galleries every day and skim hard, only to get bad quality traffic out/in. It's much better to list fewer galleries, but for longer period of time; most surfers are not daily returners, and a productive ratio of 1:200 is always better than a TGP with twice the traffic but 1:500. Shame the new TGP "generation" don't realize that. Try it :)

Yes! I listened to the pros and submitted galleries to a select few. All my stuff is unique so the competition is nil. What I'm noticing after several months of this is that there is consistency and expansion.

You KNOW from your stats who's got the good traffic and that's what you focus for. When you have a program like CyberAge that I use the surfer sees the value of more sites for their buck. If you have a real kick ass affiliate program that's an extra kick too. Aren't too many in my niche but when I do get one that actually pulls in the sale it's great. Sometimes an affiliate and TGP gallery will snag like $200 in signups. It don't sound like alot but when you compound that and it's consistant then you see the value.

I add serialized toons to my galleries. That is the most successful trick for me. People love em.

So I'm learning the fine tuning needed. I also often trade a free logo for a TGP site in exchange for links. Believe it or not I have gotten high praise for some of these logos.

Trading fairly is always a win win situation.

a couple of my favs are XPIRIN and Bangthumbs. Bangthumbs is pay, but good conversions. My best convetring big TGP is Pinkworld. good shit there.

:-) yeah some bigger site's traffic can be usefull

Cool, what affiliates do you use or recommend?
