When did Sindbad Bookmarks go all AVS?
Or is it just my mis interpretation of the submit page
notice that says
"A free gallery site cannot be registered"
The only free gallery (non AVS) sites I am seeing on their
are in a section of FHG's tied to sponsors.
Did I miss something along the way? I thought Sindbad took free sites
as well as AVS and Pay sites.
Does sound about right, last time I checked they sent me traffic on free sites, but how knows now. Free traffic itself is on the way out, so not really shocked by about anything now days. I guess like everyone we should see what they are doing now, god I hate losing yet another traffic source. :vanish:
Their page has been the same ever since I've been submitting to them. And that's been a couple of years now.

Yeah but if you look at their site in the individual categories all I am seeing now is AVS sites, no free sites. I am seeing some paysites in thereQuote:

Even in the FREE sites area, it is all FHG's now.
This has not always been the case here....or have i just missed something all along?
Hmm I'm going to have to look at that myself and see if the few sites that I've submitted to them are still in.
Sinbad has been cock blocking traffic like that for years now, personally I think they would have a more profitable site now if they did not do all that crap. If you look real hard you can find your “new” links and on pages 3 or something for that week+, from what I remember. This is nothing new for them or many other directories that are doing about the same with links. That is making it really hard for viewers to get you to out-side links (our links that is) , and replacing links in the directories with their own sites, or sites they make 50% of.
All this does remind me of what happened to AVS, and maybe this was just another contributing factor, but now looks like they will go down with each other. That is these free gay links lists, and the AVS programs they use now so much as nothing more than door stops, to force traffic on their own affiliate programs. All this will not end well for them, sites will become static, corporate, safe, boring, and dead. Viewers in the end will flock someplace else
I've been submitting a free site a week to SindbadBookmarks for a long time. They list the free sites in the "new" area by week, but do not seem to store them in the archive by niche. I never got much traffic back other than from the new area, anyhow.
