One of these days when it all thins out - the only ones of those thumb-TGPs left are going to be the one run like HUN, PK etc. - Clean and with respect to the surfers. Shemp's ShempLand is a good example - HotSexSeries.com also does it pretty well even with their trade links.

First off, I gotta say that in a message board that's 99% bullshit, I appreciate real discussion.

And, I think that you're on the right track... that's what I've been leaning towards (and what I'm doing now). The tough part is that unless you get at least 75% of surfers returning, ever a 125% link trade still results in a net loss, so if you go this way, you have to have a quality site. As far as thinning out, I think that it's happening already. The get rich quick kids are quickly dropping out since they spend a lot of money, hoping for a 300% return on their money, and of course, they don't get it. But long term is where the payout is. I *know* that the real big sites (Hun, PK, RR, etc.) have the inertia so that they relaly don't ever have to work again. That's what I'm looking for. Maybe I'll keep being nice to surfers.
