On The Bench Live Saturday! 3PM EDT! Topic: Revisiting Hubs (aka Free Site v2.0)

[Greenguy]

Come on folks! Come and shoot the breeze with MrMaryLou at Greenguy and Jim's On The Bench every Saturday at 3pm EDT :) Come on and find out what's going on in the wonderful world of webmastering :)

This Week's Topic Is: Revisiting Hubs (aka Free Site v2.0)!

With all this talk about Kit's groundbreaking new Free Site v1.5 (http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/showthread.php?t=46266) as well as the Earth shattering Free Site v2.0 (http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/showthread.php?p=396327#post396327) concept (part of marc from hoes.com's thread (http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/showthread.php?t=46326)) we have decided that now is a GREAT time to revisit this very popular & time tested marketing method!

When asked about Free Site v2.0, Kit said:
...Yes, it's a HUB in your terms...

So come join MrMaryLou as he revisits a topic that he's covered on many past On The Bench shows as well as at last year's XBiz Summer Forum (http://www.xbizsummerforum.com/), where he was a speaker on the Traffic Panel. His topic was, oddly enough, HUBS!

Hubs what a concept :D

[T Pat]

I remember the very first OTB
MML started it with the question "how many of you have hubs"
and I remember saying out loud "what the fuck is a hub" :D

[SheepGuy]

My link list started out as a hub, never heard the term before I started it, but that's what it was and it pretty much stayed as a hub for about 7 or 8 years ;)

Hubs are likely the least used tool that give the greatest benefit to not just freesite submitters, but AVS site submitters and I would think TGP submitters as well, though I'm not too familiar with the TGP part of the biz.

What's with all the jack-assery?

I was just thinking today, I need to build more hubs for trade and traffic. I was thinking about doing a free site too (I haven't done one in years) and was wondering if dedicating a domain to a (more meaty) free site was something LLs like (I remember that being discussed years ago here, but I haven't done a FS in a long time.)

I'll try to log on to the bench tomorrow (but chances are I'll forget.) And I do miss that radio show.
