For those saying it's about bandwidth and resources I say NO WAY. Unless I'm misunderstanding something you merely need to take down the ADVERTISEMENTS on the Blogs, or any way of monetizing the blog. Ads take up very little resources. The photos (and especially videos) that are using said resources can remain so I don't think it's about bandwidth, resources, etc.
I wonder if this includes TEXT links? You know, you write an article for a blog and pepper it with text links. Bad?

That's why tubes are all at the top.
Yeah, Pornhub can claim that they have SEO "geniuses" working for them.
But Google makes decisions about the relative importance of a site via the tags and text. We all use that...but then they look at how long a surfer stays on that particular site.
If they are only on your site a minute of two then you are ranked in that level of importance.
However if people are staying on a site for a long time then guess what? All things being equal...Google will go with the site that keeps the surfer longer.

Robbie: what about people who keep their windows open? You know, read a couple paragraphs, leave the window open (stll on site), grab some coffee, come back, read a little, take a shit, come back....LOL No?
I agree with tubes people will stay on site longer - but that's just because they're searching for something to jack it to. No one goes to a tube and spends an hour on there looking at all the videos, do they? When they find something they like they pull it out and whack it. Or bookmark it to whack it later.
But maybe some DO stay on tubes for an hour, fucking around....but how many losers like that are there in the world? Oh wait....LOL
