I hesitate to mention this, but I've already created an auto-gallery generator (Complete with a proper thumbnail generator), which allows me to make 3 galleries in less then 2 minutes, without breaking a sweat.
I'd be willing to sign up under any sponsors, offer any scripts the mentor needs, etc... As long as they are willing to take me under their wing, and get me to a point where I understand the scene, and what I need to do to make this profitable.
That aside, I have a few questions: - 1) Should I buy more domains? Currently I have a partner, I make the galleries, he submits them using chameleon submitter*, and we're starting to realize that we can only successfully do 3 galleries a day on this domain.
- 2) Going off #1, could I just use some random domain I have lying around? The names aren't really porn related, but they're not being used for anything and I'd like to finally get a sale. I've only had about a combined total of 120 clicks on a total of 3 sponsors, with 6 galleries submitted (Three of them last night)
- *3) Would it be worth it to buy myself a chameleon submitter license? So both my partner and I have one, and we can knock out more galleries per day (Assuming I get more domains)
- 4) Is chameleon confirmer worth it? I was thinking about just writing something on my own, but I've noticed there are at least 6 distinct types of confirmation emails, two of which would still require some kind of human interaction, and I just hate reinventing the wheel when the wheel is cheap :P
- 5) Should I bother with partner accounts yet? Seeing as I haven't made a sale, I wouldn't think it'd be worth the risk... However I don't know how many sales/clicks I'd get out of it.
Sorry for so many questions, but I tend to hold back til they all build up so I'm not making multiple threads a day  |
Hey Athanx, welcome to the pond...
I'll try to answer your questions, if someone disagrees, correct me...
1) Not the domain is logged but the IP from the submitter, so If you have multile IP's you could submit more. But be carefull with that. TGP owners could blacklist you if you break their rules. Make sure you submit to the bigger sites like thehun and/or buy submit account, you could buy 1 at shemp.com. I hear that shemp gives great traffic...
2) You could use any domainame you like, but for SEO a domainname with some keywords is more valuable.
3)Yeah off course, submitting from 2 different IP's and 2 or more different domains would do the trick... But take the previous warming into account!!
4)Sorry, don't use it yet...
5)see answer on Q1. Paid partner account could be worth it if well choosen.
Next to gallery submitting I'm building my own TGP filled with sponsor galleries and have some splogs running. And I'm working on hubpages for my submitted galleries.
Hopefully you can do something with this...
