I do not think your conversion is low at all. In fact I think it pretty much the norm. It not like it use to be people are pretty much extremely selective in the present ( Also we are faced with a world economic situation currently? So people are more interested in providing for their families) This is temporary though all apart of life.

But I do agree building your own galleries is much better?since in this way you can try out new ideas in marketing the video or the pictures. Just remember building galleries and free sites, blog, landing pages?etc? is a need in this industry for much of the advertising if you are not buying off the search engines and ad space?.( generic pages are good to submit to the search engines under various select key words?and other forms of optimizing and marketing techniques)

MPG/TPG gallery submitting use to do well for people ( ratio 1 :200 - 1:500? Now more Like 1: 5000 or more) In the present economy?even two years ago they started to bring in less sales?.Now many are selling their traffic in an effort to make money?fill the gape so to speak.

The only time I buy traffic off a broker or seller is if I want to temporary fill a gape for a few days? feeder stuff nothing more!

Seasoned search engine users will look up exactly what they want on the search engines. New search engines users will usually search out what they want in guess and click into most sites advertising the adult stuff they want or think they are looking for.

Free site traffic on link list for me? although low is still my favorite traffic. Seem they do convert much better over time.

The truth in this economy everyone is seeing a decrease in sales?.some more than others?we just got to wave the storm?and hope many people start cleaning up their act with all these pop ups, pop under, redirect and other form of stupid shit that pushes surfers away?. After all who wants to go into a site and find there browser seizing up because someone is so stressed and will do anything to get a sale!
