OMG this link-o-rama.com guy goes nuts on the rules LOL It's like reading a book, most are commonsense, but some over a bit over the line if you ask me.
You must link back to us - instructions are over here. This link MUST be visible & accessible to the surfer thru your site. A link on a page that no one will ever visit is of no use to us.
Do not submit sites with your IP numbers in the address. Example: http://123.45.67.89/whatever/ These sites, for some reason unknown to me, seem to die after about a week or so. Do yourself a favor, spend the $15 & register a domain name.
If you have any of those annoying pop-up consoles/windows. I only need 1 browser to surf, not 3 or 4 others popping up with nice little spam & top 500 messages & whatever the latest fad is. NO POP-UP CONSOLES OR WINDOWS AT ALL! This does include those target="new" things.
Pay & AVS sites are more than welcome, however we ask that you do 2 things - link to us from outside the protected area (yes, I know this is a shit thing to ask, but past experiences have soured us on this & it is now a requirement) The 2nd thing is that you submit us a temporary password/username so that we may have a look around the protected area. (these will be kept private & shall not be given out for any reason - and it'll probably get you a better description than "Nice samples over here")
No blind or misleading links what-so-ever (especially back to us) No one benefits from crap traffic!
You must be trading traffic with at least 5 other Link Lists. I've been getting way too may sites that have just my link on them & no one else's. I send you traffic, you send me traffic
If you link to us from the page we are linking to, do not put the link under your "enter" button - no one looks down there. The link back DOES NOT have to be on the 1st page, but if it is, it has to be above the enter link.
No links to sites that have masked pictures as their main pictures - I see no point in these at all.
The name that you submit to us as the name of the site must actually appear on the site - this may seem like an easy enough concept, but some people have little or no idea what they are doing.
If your site has clickable thumbs, the thumbnail images have to actually be thumbnails & NOT the actual picture loading at a smaller width & height.
The content must be on the same domain as the site.
No more Full Page Ads (FPA) of any kind - that means AVS FPA's (Full Page Ad: anything that takes up more then 3/4 of my screen - I have a 17 in. monitor & am set at 1024x768, so now you know my limits)
20 pic minimum.
No more than 1 link request per webmaster per day.
No pre-set-up pay sites - if you want a pay site, build the damn thing yourself.
Pics that open on html pages are allowed, but you are not allowed to have more then 1 banner/text link on the html page.
No Free or Revshare Hosted sites - go buy a domain & some hosting or find a new hobby.
No free email address - we all have an real legit email address - use it.
No sites promoting the Ultra Cash or Epic Cash programs will be listed.
No autosubmitters - we review each site by hand, you can submit it by hand
Free sites with movies must have a minimum of 120 seconds worth of movies & the movies must be at least 10 seconds in length.
If your submitting a site that has 2 or more pages from the same set of content, the pics MUST be in order. I'm sick of seeing sites where page 1 has the girl ending up completely nude but page 2 has her stripping all over again.
Your site has to look decent at 800x600 - if I have to scroll to the right to see the entire page or things just look "off", it will be declined.
No sites with 3rd party counters will be listed. Get some stats on your server.
No more crappy vid caps for your pics - video camera's take movies, not still images.
No more sites with broken English.
If we just plain do not like the site (this happens when I'm in a bad mood)
Rules I don’t like
(1) The link back DOES NOT have to be on the 1st page, but if it is, it has to be above the enter link. (only sites that are desperate for viewers do that)
(2) No more than 1 link request per webmaster per day (OMG I have a life I can not send you one site a day, if you don’t want to list them all at the same time that’s up to you)
(3) No sites with 3rd party counters will be listed. Get some stats on your server. (sounds like he dose not want people to know how many viewers each site is sending)
(4) You must be trading traffic with at least 5 other Link Lists. I've been getting way too may sites that have just my link on them & no one else's. I send you traffic, you send me traffic (LOL well I bet if you had less than 50 listed rules that would not happen)
I guess I am a bit rebellious when I see a list of rules like this it kinda pisses me off.
