This is a link that my employee has on one of his AEN sites. He put it below the script. His reasoning went like this; surfer comes to site, goes through tour, hits the join page, sees the script, either clicks a link on the script, or scrolls down.

What? A surfer would scroll all the way down a page? Yeah, they do. The question is not IF they do, but what do you do about it? Simple. You send them somewhere. In my case I send them all over the place, usually to hubs that I have built or my link lists. This is part of stealing a surfer and sending them into our trap. They didn’t bite and buy something the first time, so send them to a place that has more choices and filter them down some more.

There are some things to keep in mind when doing this.  You have to make sure your link does not interfere with making your sale. You want them to click your link only after they have seen your sales pitch and declined the “offer”. You also have to be careful about the anchor text you use. If you use a lot of links to one domain, then you should use different relevant anchor text. For example, I run an ethnic link list and feed traffic into the various categories directly. If I create an asian AEN site, I will link to the asian category with relevant anchor text and change the text. One link may say, “more asian boy galleries here”, while another may say, “over 100 gay asian sites - click here”. You get the idea. I don’t want my links to be considered spam.

That link was on one AEN site. I just checked the stats to see how many visitors that link brought in to the site it was linking to. 3729 is the number. Let’s say you do 10 AEN sites a week and have similar results,  over the course of a month those 10 AEN sites will send over 37,000 uniques to other pages to be filtered down.

Ten sites, ten links, 37,000 more chances to make a sale. The power of a link.
