For the past three days I've being getting 3-5G of bandwith per day ($9-$15 per day in charges) from Tommy's link list and no one single signup.
I've never gotten so many hits from him before for any of my other free sites. What the hell happen http://bbs.adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/mad.gif

Did Tommy become a TGP or what? He is sucking my bandwith dry.

I submitted to the pornstar category. The site consits of softcore Jenna Jameson pictures. Nothing special or worth getting that many hits from him or any other link lists.

Check your stats and see if you are being hotlinked by one of those site sucker programs that are out now. If so set up a .htaccess file or drop me a line on icq and I will give you a copy of mine. Nothing special about it but those damn site suckers are everyplace and I have found over 30 of them to date. 103573845

My stats show I got 16,062 visits from http://www.tommys-bookmarks.com/pornstars.shtm yesterday. and a bit more for the previous 2 days. I think I'm protected against people you try to hotlink my images, I got a srcitp installed for that.

16k from the pornstar page? You must be near the bottom of the update, or have a tame description. I've seen over 30k/day from a link on his pornstars page.

Than I must be lucky for not being listed at the top. I pride myself on running low traffic (1,000-1,500 hits per day) but high conversion free sites and I get hit with this shit. How much longer will my site remains on tommy's update?

i never tried the pornstar category
it might be along the same lines as hardcore and teen
i was refering to the niche categories like
uniform, voyuer...ect
well, you live and learn
hope you figure something out qoutealex
also, once again....thanks for the submissions at http://quickjerkoff.com hope my listings are making you some bank
Peace!
I got listed for the first time yesterday on Tommy's and I hadn't even submitted to him. The site doesnt have a recip to him either, his database probly conked out or something maybe and he's picking up sites? Anyway, I got a lot of sales today, and its probly from his site.

I don't know, I have always had great success with Tommy's traffic. At least in the catagories I submit under. Since I suck at selling Asians, I can'tsay how that page does for me. But I have always enjoyed getting listed in the pornstar update.
You'll probably be pushed down a good bit by tomorrow. Tom and his staff are reviewing and updating like mad, most of the catagories are updated daily now. He told me he's getting over 1500 submissions/day.

Steve, you'll see that most of the listings at the pornstar section are for Tommy's own sites and thundersex.com and equis.ya.com, in which I found some VERY WEIRD shit. I hope Tommy's is not related to these suckers, but I think he'd be warned about that
Peace

This could be why I'm getting all these worthless traffic from Tommy. Btw, I'm still getting Yesterday should I got 12K visit from him. At this decrease rate, I'll probable go bankrupt by the end of this month. Lol.

Why not just ask him to kindly remove the site from his list?

I didn't think of that. If by this thursday his traffic doesn't drop to less than 1,000 hits per day, I'll e-mail Tommy and ask him to remove the pornstar feeder site from his list. But I don't want to offend him and get my other 50+ feeder sites also rejected from his lists.

you might wanna upload your galleries on a freehost?
quotealex
08-28-2001, 03:23 PM
I could do that, but all my other free would then be blacklisted by 200+ link sites for violation of their rules. I don't think that would be a wise move!
