Success with a TGP

[Evil Chris]

Here's a question I'd like to throw out there for discussion.
How do you get success in the TGP area of our business?

Let's say that you decide to start one up. You have many options in front of you. You can either have it as a text link TGP all in one list, or text links that are categorized.

You could also decide to use thumbnails to link to the submitted galleries, which is what a lot of people starting out with their TGPs seem to be doing now.

Then there is the question of traffic. Do you make a big purchase of traffic to kick start your TGP and install a trade script? Or do you go it alone with your own traffic fed into the TGP?

Partner accounts are another option. Do you not take any chances and just accept submissions from partner accounts, ensuring your TGP has the highest possible quality submissions?

I would like to hear from you!

text links with a main page of mixed and archived categorized links. Text with some thumbs spread out, I use my own shit for the thumbed links. Partner accounts only and unless you still want problems only give them to peeps you know and can trust...lol As far as traffic goes you cant depend on any one single method. Purchased traffic is good but thats more money comming out of your pocket each month. Traded traffic is good for building but light on the quality. With TGP's you have the options of purchased, trades, recip, hardlink, SE traffic, those just being the main ones. You need a mix of them all if you want a TGP to stay live and productive in some way.

submit galleries to paid partner accounts with recips to your tgp and one of your trades, their trade script will send you traffic for the traffic that is getting clicked on.
Build a thumbnail gallery with archives in each niche, use your submitted galleries to fill these niches and trade with same niche sites!

Use comusthumbs and tradezilla!

paid partner accounts? Hmm, my jury is still out on that one.

Anyone here pay for their partner accounts, and how's it working out for you?
