Tube8.com Theories (How did they?)
 

http://www.alexa.com/data/details/tr...ails/tube8.com

How... in 5 months do you figure they did such a significant jump from 0 to 918 on Alexa (No comments about faking your Alexa stats please), with 0 backlinks in Google? I see a # of links coming from Yahoo, but 0 in Google.

I'm curious about your theories on how this is done.

It seems shady.

Meta tags

Ok, that's one theory. Very brain dead and completely clueless, but a theory none the less.

I blame the bros.

interesting.

Maybe they wanted to piss off a real Asshole:disgust Look in the Mirror and all will be clear:321GFY

lots of money

Probably from 3pic and porn365 both legit sites do decent numbers, too bad tube8 wasnt legit.

Tube movies r slow for china surfers. They perfer porn movies can be downloaded. :winkwink:

They got what surfers want. Pretty simple.

Free porn = Word of Mouth

You could also call it viral marketing ;-)

Guess what feature 8tube.com offers :)

You can throw in AVN er blacklabel er whatever its called ads as well.

It's called backlink spamming for trash traffic..

And the list just goes on and on.. the more forums, embeds, ect the higher rankings, views, ect will be.

It's not all fake of course.

Yep, those tubes unfortunately don't need google kick off, and once they grow, they gain links at the speed of light. Same with youporn, redtube, etc.

Redtube has has many backlinks in yahoo as the hun, youporn almost double the ammount. Keeping in mind how long they are in business and how long the hun is, it shows how insane their growth is.

The people behind tube8 have a huge advertising budget, and buying advertising isnt normally done through hardlinks so its not a surprise they dont have a ton, although google link checker isnt updated in real time anyway.

they have over 30,000 backlinks:

put the space in there. :thumbsup

Hmmm Yahoo reports only 2,649 backlinks.
