FFA Sites - Do they work?

I had began last weekend, 1 week ago today, posting to the SE's either direct or through free submission sites. This was phase one, and so far generated the most traffic, unfortunately all crawlers versus visits. Wednesday I became aware of FFA portals that submit your ad to millions of sites, and I tried Blastomatic, supposedly they submit to 12 million supposedly. So far I have seen very little traffic, but most suggest that it can take time for the ad to be posted. 1 week into it, and pending.....Today I also submitted to a viral traffic site, this should be more immediate, but we will see on this as well.



I had not added to this in a while, but I thought I would answer this. Apparently they can generate a little traffic, but not enough to be considered worth the efforts to maintain. I have done more research on the traffic, and raising rank in the engines which I think will prove more fruitfull. So for those of you considering FFA sites, perhaps they will work for you, for me they created work trying to sort through all the spam they generated.

Flop Donkey Casino Portal

I Just released my new casino portal Flop Donkey, http://www.flopdonkey.com, a collection of online casinos, poker rooms, slots, bingo, and sportsbook sites. It was an interesting series of events that lead to the site release, but over all many hours put into getting it operational as quickly as possible. While the content is static, I am working on the MySQL backend that will eventually produce dynamic content throughout the site. A week ago I submitted the contents to the SE's, and that has been one issue after another, and what I intend to post about. Anyone considering some form of affiliate portal should be prepared to deal with either spending countless hours dealing with trying to get traffic to their site, or a lot of money!
