what's up gfy

this is a first for me, to read some negativity on link dumps. with the large number out there, the majority seems to think differently about the benefits of using them.

i personally use them, and have off-and-on ran a few. it's a double-edged sword in my opinion. you will have some individuals that do operate in a shady manner and some that don't. it's a crap-shoot.

if a linkdump is "claiming" that it can send you so many uniques and decides to use frames, then that's a problem.. but most linkdumps don't claim to guarantee any amount of traffic.

most submitters should know that you're just dropping your links into a bucket that gets emptied and filled again and again.. yes, some linkdumps have archives, but do the surfers usually go that deep? i don't think so.

back to frames, as a webmaster.. i would love to present the galleries/content to my surfers and still have some link to them via the frame, is that a bad thing? no.

it's no worse than all of those traffic tradiing scripts that send users to different galleries than the one they clicked on, all so traffic trades can be filed, hmmm..

long live linkdumps!

peace
