Did Tommy just start charging

T Pat · 2004-10-21, 05:38 PM

So I went to submit to Tommy's Bookmarks and was asked to pay $50 for a partner account (I paid of course) I'm just surprised I hadn't seen it mentioned on the board

Mateusz · 2004-10-21, 05:42 PM

Uhm... where did you find that ?
I don't see anything like that at http://www.tommys-bookmarks.com/submit/

T Pat · 2004-10-21, 05:44 PM

I got it after I hit the submit button

Ramster · 2004-10-21, 05:46 PM

Yes he has started charging, $50 a year I believe (or one time fee).

T Pat · 2004-10-21, 06:00 PM

I've only been listed on Tommy's Bookmarks once. But judging by the amont of traffic the one listing is getting I would have paid more

I wonder if all the big boy's (and girls) are going to go to this route

swedguy · 2004-10-21, 06:03 PM

I guess that means I have to start submit more often than 1 site every third month

the New Shemp · 2004-10-21, 06:06 PM

$50.00 is a steal of a deal

kristian · 2004-10-21, 06:13 PM

$50.00 is a great price. Most places want several times that for only a month. And Tommy's traffic converts better than those sites.

Greenguy · 2004-10-21, 06:28 PM

I paid my $50

I'm also watching this closely to see how it goes.....

MrMaryLou · 2004-10-21, 06:30 PM

Cheap at twice the price

Tommy's gots some kick ass traffic

Alphawolf · 2004-10-21, 06:47 PM

With the amount of traffic I got from tommy $50 is nothing.

It would be cool if he added more specific categories...is the only request I have.

I bet this will cut down on the cheaters by 90%+.

Less crap for them to sort through and even quicker review times perhaps.

It's all good.

grzepa · 2004-10-21, 08:07 PM

For that amount of traffic that Tommy's providing $50/year is an ok price.

Tommy · 2004-10-21, 09:24 PM

Thank you everyone, I have to admit I was a little nervous about the change

I appriciate the kind words :-)

Keyser Soze · 2004-10-21, 09:33 PM

Its a great deal just got my account.
Some places I don´t have a problem paying for submits if its the right site and right price

Kezza · 2004-10-21, 09:38 PM

Tommy, I think I must have submitted a site milli-seconds before you started the fee... should I resubmit and pay the $50?

submitted under webmaster at link-fabulous.com

thanks
Kez

If you are willing to share I'd be curious how fewer submissions you get over the next week or so.

grzepa · 2004-10-22, 05:08 AM

@Tommy, I just submitted a gallery to you and all went the old way - ie no asking for paying anything - is it because I was a partner before or something's wrong on my side ?

Actually I just tried to submit another site and this also happened to me... it went through as normal and there wasnt a message to pay... just a thank you for submitting

Gee... didnt think the day would come that I could not give away money!!

Tommy... |help|

Pendo · 2004-10-22, 07:51 AM

looks like those who were partners doesn't need to pay 50 bucks
YEY!

I didn't want to be the 1st that came out & said I didn't have to pay

Useless · 2004-10-22, 09:25 AM

Sounds like the end is nigh for free traffic. (yes, I said nigh) As much as I hate to pay for anything, traffic, sex, whatever, it will probably be ultimately better for the industry, assuming the fees remain below the 'outrageous' level. Any token amount will drastically cut down on the cheaters and hobby-hour slip-slop. Tommy is charging just less than 14 cents a day. You can't even feed a third world kid a bowl of rice on that amount.

CelticTiger · 2004-10-22, 09:54 AM

I'm happy to pay to play. Tommy's traffic rocks.....tho it's a sad state of affairs when he's forced to do this. I'd like to know tho....does one pay the $50 with the application or do you have to apply, be approved and then pay?
