I find it kind of sad that you can generate 500% more hit by simply retitling your gallery to include the word "Sex". I have created two galleries, Containg the same photos, on titled as "Most Popular" and the other "Sex, Sluts and Loose Women" . This make me want to retitle all my galleries!

    Sad indeed. Be careful, you might not want your name plastered over every search engine and tied to Sex, Sluts and Loose Women.:):

    It used to that just adding the word "FREE" to your meta tags and keywords was all you needed...but that doesn't seem to help anymore.

    I can do you one better:

    My blog (http://www.downwithtables.org) came up as the number one result on MSN UK for the search term "girls who love to strap and chain you down on to a table."

    I found this out by looking at my traffic logs.

    And no, my blog isn't about "girls who love to strap and chain you down on to a table," just so you know ;)

    Yeah, ok, isn't that the same as saying "but officer I swear I my speedometer said I was doing the speed limit. Something must be wrong with my car"

    Why?

    Surely it's useless traffic, if your goal is to sell photos.

    Useless traffic is a waste of time and resources. One is better off targeting traffic from qualified visitors if your interests lay beyond the impressiviness of server logs mwink.gif

    Sounds like a great way to waste your bandwidth on viewers who truely aren't looking for what you have to offer. Hey its your bandwidth.
