Biz Thread - blog posts
 

I'm looking for opinions on doing blog posts. What do you think converts best from SE traffic?

1. Text + photo link to a hosted gallery.
2. Text + photo link to the paysite.
3. Something else.

I'm doing both on my blogs and am getting about the same conversion ratio, but I've only just started and don't have enough information to pick one or the other.

Anybody got any opinions?

You'll do better if you qualify them, so sending them to some form of advertising before they hit the paysite will give you your best results. If you're going to use photos, ensure they're named in a keyword rich fashion.

linking to a gallery of sorts is the best way imo. gives the post content. linking straight to the tour/join page is fine but have at least 1 gallery/video in the post

I agree... Send them to the FHG before. ;)

linking to the gallery is by far the best. If you link right to the paysite it won't work well, and you wont have many visitors returning to your site. It's best to just give away some free porn to your surfers so they keep coming back, then throw an ad in like once a week or so
