Latest reason that I've been declining a lot
Been seeing this a lot lately.
Right below the recips and above the enter link "CLICK HERE TO TAKE THE FREE TOUR!" Like on this site http://www.cutewildgirls.com/freesit...sex/index.html I was letting it slide but I've been getting a lot of feedback lately from my surfers off of my Report Bad Link with reason given as free site just leads to a paysite. |

Wheither you think you can or you think you can't, Your right.
|
That is kinda on the deceptive side, dont blame the surfers. Or they have like three links after the recip, not always easy to figure out which is the right one.

Yeah the same thing here.
I've been deleting a lot of partner accounts lately. I have a handful of submitters that submit very nice sites and that with the sponsor hosted sites is really all I need these days. |

i also found out a new group of names are submitting, i would say 2 or 3 new submitters start on one day ...oke but then about 15 to 20 new names who start to submit on the same day...no way

This is my freesite and really don't understand why You would define that as a blind link. The "Free Tour" link is in a table of it's own and the Enter link is the same size as the Enter link below. Maybe I should have mentioned the paysite a bit more. How should I do it diffrently to get it accepted?

As far as "CLICK HERE TO TAKE THE FREE TOUR!" link located in separate table and text above says - "...TAKE THE FREE TOUR OF LESBIAN TRAINING!..." it looks like average adv block

Took the hint.
|
I am border line on this. The tour is free. There are free trailers on the page. Clicking certain images gets you a signup page, but if you click the "view trailer" links. you get videos (more than 20 seconds long each).
The link is inside an ad area: Quote:
If "CLICK HERE TO TAKE THE FREE TOUR" was sitting by itself without any ad text around it, I might not like it. But in this context, it is clearly and obviously (to me anyway) an ad. Alex |

Ok, as this seem to be a borderline case and all of You seem to be seeing things diffrently it might not be something I should continue doing. I've just been trying diffrent approches lately and this might not be the way to go as it seems right now. I just don't want to risk anything as freesites are my main source of income.
Would You see things diffrently if it was above the recips area and without the "Click Here" in the link? Maybe something like "Take the free tour of <sponsor site>"? Would it be ok to have "Click here to take the free tour" link on main and gallery pages? |

It is a combo of where it is placed and the fact that it stands out much more then the enter link.
I probably would not have a problem with it above the recips or down under the enter link. I clicked on it myself by mistake. You pretty much grow to expect the enter link to be right under the recips. |

Ok Cleo, I'll avoid this in the future and I hope this hasn't hurt my partner relationship with Cleo's Links. It's early morning here in Bangkok and I need to get my beautysleep now.

It's blind..
100% blind... People need to wake up to the fact that:- "something that could be blind" or "you have to ask if it's blind" or "if ONE person says its blind" then its BLIND! Using links like that will only give you bad ratios and piss surfers off That site would never get listed at any place I review DD

Checking it, it did get listed on LOR, so I guess it's just a personal taste call. It seemed obviously like an ad to me, seperate box, the actual enter link for the freesite did have the freesite name in it, "Enter Girl on Girl Sex"

I only do the reviews for sites that have been reported bad, but I've been deleting a lot of them for the same reason Cleo cited. If the design/wording/layout is such that a visitor is likely to click on the sponsor link by mistake, thinking it's the link to the free content before he finds the real link, it's gone.

Very good thread.
Being a freesite builder, I will definitely take ALL this information and refer to it - after all, trusted reviewers are like GOLD - if they tell you a freesite is good, it will generate you income. If it sucks learn from it - its as simple as that. I won't profess to know everything but whenever I listen to reviewers like MML, MrYum, Cleo, DareuTwo and all the others I definitely SEE the difference.

every linksite has his own rules, now i have 3 bosses i review for...yeah yeah i am sucha whore, but all have different rules, one dont like this the other dont like that......(drives me nuts sometimes) i would say as an free site builder, keep track on which linksites you get listed and with what site and how you have your sponsor adds there, you dont have to change always how you make your site to please everyone, it just depends on what sites you want your free sites to get listed

Hi Cleo
I create sites for Women and I don't have a submitters account with you, but I would like to be able to submit to Cleo's Links. I did go to your register link and it said it's by invitation only now. What do I have to do to be invited. Jessthecat |
