Generally, as a simple low down, and rules on most link list require these.

1. 30 images (some now run up to a min. of 50)

2. index/warning page (place your recips, warning, enter button, and an ad (gaydmeon stopped allowing Ads on this page as maxpower stated)

2. "main page" another add, some text, and link to your 2,3 gallery pages

3. your gallery pages,

Dont bother trying to blinklink anyone, the link lists are pretty up on it and will just blacklist you.

Another important one is the "name" of your free site. Dont try doing it as a H1, needs to be an image as some LLs dont accept text titles.

erm ? there really isnt a lot to it. Like anything, the more effort you put into the free site, text ads, page presentation, SEO ect the better it will perform, more places will accept and it, and ofcorse get the SEO right and it could prove to have great longterm results.

Oh a final note. Be careful on how many recieps you put on your index page, most LLs restrict to 8. This is where you can make "mirrors" of your free sites, but IF you do make mirrors target them to different keywords for SEO perposes

Hope that helps, just a bit of knowledge i gained over the years.
