Ok, I'm going to a 180 here, even though I commented in an earlier post about my efforts to shut the originator down (which was true).
I own my own paysite and pay for it's bandwidth in its entirety. When I first saw fusker.com pulling my pics, I was pissed (again)!!
But then I started giving this more thought. If my images are branded (which they are), then isn't this similar to a tgp or picpost?
People are seeing my pics, their quality, style and getting a generalized feel for the type of content I host. I started to question if this was not a third avenue of advertising, albeit without the convenient links to click on automatically.
For me personally, I now view fusker as a possible advertising mechanism. I only wish I could better determine how much traffic to my website and sales I make through it.
