Using bought content for freesites

[tigermom]

I went ahead and bought a bunch of sets to your for AVS and freesites. While I have made freesites using "my" content in the past, I think I could use some tips

When you are not committed to a particular sponsor, how would you go about making the most of your outgoing links?

So far, using the three outbound links on a page was fairly simple - I would either send all of them to the paysite, or sometimes use one for one of my hubs. Recently, I tried dedicating one outgoing link to a cam service provided by the same sponsor as the paysite (even okayed it with them).

Now with my own content, should I still focus on just one sponsor per page? Maybe trying two would be better? maybe one of them a full priced tour and the other a "free sign up" sponsor? or would that confuse the surfer and I should just stick to repeating the same paysite in three outgoing links?

Other than that, what I can think of is watermarking the images to one of my hubs/sites for some additional traffic and branding effect.

Tips and advice most welcome

Well I would think definatly to watermark your pics if thats allowed with the license.

I think multiple sponsors might be confusing, but could be done in such a way as to make it clear, like "sponsor #1 vs sponsor #2 who has the best creampies....you decide!" Something along those lines might be able to work.

Maybe just send every link to a review site or hub for the particular niche and then let the surfer decide from there.

Maybe put an email sponsor somewhere in there too.

Just my thoughts, but Im not an LL owner and havent submitted in awhile so I could be totally wrong

Make sure the license says you can watermark the images.

In the past on my story sites i'll also include links to picture and movie sites in the past which worked out well.

Also, theres so many variations on each niche that you could use two sponsors and just seperate the niche even further in to the two.

Like a cumshot site in to cum swallowing sponsor and a facial site, or a lesbian site in to lesbians with strap on site and then an interracial lesbian site.

As long as they are two relatively seperate parts of the same niche i don't think the surfer would be confused. If both were to swallowing sites then they might wonder why your saying two similar sites are both the best.

Possibly use one link to a movie site in the same niche as well.

I'd keep one going to a hub if you can.

I think sheepguy and Tommy could tell you which might work best in an avs set up though. I've yet to make one.

I've found it works a lot better to pick your target sponsor, and then sell that sponsor hard.

Sometimes I add smaller links to sponsors I want to test, just to see if the surfers seem at all interested in it.

But If I'm fairly certain of the niche and the sponsor, on the gallery pages, I only try to sell one sponsor.

Giving the surfer too many choices, when you have him inside your site, both confuses the surfer, and makes your sponsor look less desireable.

But, when you are uncertain about the niche and teh sponsor, you can use it to test sponsors - you just won't make quite as many sales as when you really focus the surfers attention on possibly joining your ideal sponsor.

Everybody sells differently so I say play around. Sometimes as Bill stated hard selling of just one sponsor works and can work very well.

But if its not working for you sales wise then try cross selling. I started doing this awhile back and it actually helped my sales. Not "move up the hill sales" but more like I can take my wife out to dinner this week

I think with AVS it's easier, in the sense that you're usually not allowed three outgoing links, but only one (at most two).
