paid gay traffic can be a bitch you never know where it is really coming from unless you are doing ppc traffic. I have not found paid traffic to be worth a shit in most cases. I have built good traffic with gallery submission and a nice banner to my tgp at the bottom I lose an ad spot but get traffic and the galleries are still making sales. A couple banner exchanges have not done that bad for me either niche exchange only though and nothing less than a 1/1. I am running about 40%+ bookmarks. The traffic is there if you work at it. Most webmasters dont realize that gay traffic makes up about only what 20% of the market and expect to see the same numbers that the straight niches bring in. Those numbers will never be there but even at 20% that is a hell of a lot of traffic and they do buy.
