Hi, I am looking to do a link exchanges with some sites. Mine is http://art-nude-angels.com.

Art Nude Angels is a collection of work by the English photographer, Thom Stockton, who works under the name Bredon.

Thom has been shooting art-nude and erotic photography for the last 8 years, and his archive, published here in full for the first time, show how his work has developed during that time.

His models are very often his close friends. He has worked with the same models for many years in some cases, producing a story of how he and they developed as artists, and their relationship developed through their photography. His work has been published at leading art-nude and erotic websites, but this site shows the work that was not published. In many cases these are the photos that were too special for him to sell, or were too artistic, or personal for publication.

Anyway, enough of that. If you would like to set up an exchange let me know. We have banners here http://nudeartcash.com/webmasters/banners if you want to use them but a text link is fine. Your site will be listed

on our partner page here http://art-nude-angels.com/links/

Thanks

Jay

It's not as bad as I thought it was. The discipline is called Art Nude, or fine art nude, but art nude is also acceptable. It also has about as many google results as nude art. Art Nude also has a wiki entry. And angels, well, that's just whatever I suppose.

And also, fine art nude doesn't have nearly as many google results as art nude. It's odd for English. It's more like Latin, with the reverse adjective. Strange

name works for me - although if you are looking to build links and hopefully traffic you really need to get some content into that site otherwise its never going to rank

good luck with the site - you have some quality images

Sure, it is a gradual roll out, though. Test the waters and all.

text - sorry should have said, if your going to links that implies you wan't SE traffic, without text those links will be a waste

Excellent point, too. Funny thing is the photographer insisted that there be as few words as possible. He wants the pictures to do all the talking. I tried to explain to no avail. But perhaps a blog of some kind would fit the bill.

Testing the waters without video is worthless IMO. Customers today demand video and the response you get with them will be a lot different to the response you get without them.

works fine if the punters find the photos! - I don't see the point in building links if theres no content (text) for the bots to collect once they hit the site - if your going to consider a blog for SEO/ traffic personally I'd stop looking for exchanges for this site - then once the blog is in place offer 3 way trades then you'll stand a better chance - just make sure your creative when registering the blog

creative when registering the blog means? And three way trades, what does that mean?

It's really not up to me. Again, I said the same thing. But don't you find that the group model sites lack promotional video content anyway. I think the lesbian sites do a lot more, and some others, but you really don't see art nude videos very much, mainly because they suck, but rarely do I. The videos are usually promoted alongside the pictures.

Not really into the art nude market so can't give a definite answer to this one. But I still maintain the response to a picture only site will be a lot different to a picture and video site.

Most art nude/softcore sites videos fall short because they are shot by accomplished amateurs rather than professionals. I see them often and the lighting, action and quality over all lacks something. When you move into this market you're in a whole new ball park.

creative as in not the same ownership of the site your pushing and 3 way trades are non reciprocal links which are best type to have, hence the reason to not have the blog and site showing the same owners - then you can get true non recps

some nice pics there, good luck with it, but being honest with you, you need a lot more than good pics and all the luck in the world in todays climate if he wants to make any money from the site.

My advice would be to first hit up all the review sites for a review

anyway good luck

They really don't have much sex appeal, in spite of the naked girl. I like Femjoy videos, though, for the production quality I've seen in the trailers. They're like little films. They're nicer than most. But this something the videos lack, it's a real something, for sure. There are some people who don't care about videos at all. It's true. Usually, video seekers want porn. Now, if the site was just hardcore pictures, I'd find that odd.

I see what you are saying. So someone links to this blog and the blog links to the site and the other site.

Oh god, how I wanted to be able to rip into the newb, sadly though...

I like that its new
I like that its softcore
I like that I've not seen a lot of the girls
I Like the lighting, real dark shadows are nice
I like that there's a decent quanitity of content

I'd rather join this than either Hegre or Femjoy, the pics are actually worth looking at. Don't care there's no movies. For me, movies need to have porn in them, end of.

Why not punch him in the face and say "Google cannot 'read' a picture, cunt. You take the pics and I will do the site".

Just took a look at the Femjoy video clips. Accomplished amateur with a good camera. Sorry but they just do not come into a better class for me. One even had glare from the sun bouncing into the girls face. Though I did like it that she spoke to me.

The one I was thinking of in particular has Belinda in the bathroom. I just thought it looked clean, like there could have been a story with it. Actually, the prod values reminded me of a television commercial.

I understand what you're talking about though, with "accomplished amateur". Good camera is also a plus- but not the best camera.

no! - the idea to get "true" 3 ways exchanges is webmasters link to the blog as thats whats going to get traffic not the site - you then offer links from the site, this way you are gaining 3 way links

Also, you need to make sure the nipples are covered up with flowers or buttons or text or something, otherwise serfers will just whack off to it all and you may not make sales :reading:

Watched the Belinda vid and it was a better than the rest. Small bathrooms are a nightmare to light.

I'll save you some time here - sign up at www.webmasterscore.com - you can submit to about 30 review sites at once through them.

I appreciate that you're new & still learning, but you really should clarify your working relationship with the photographer before you go too much further. He is clearly not helping you sell the site - assuming that sales are the ultimate goal for both of you.
