The power of toplists !!!
This is small tutorial for placing and layouting your toplists to get basic thing which is required for healthy traffic grow - OUTGOING PROD.
I recently started www.pinkmgp.com and searching for trades I realized many, I repeat MANY people don't understand how TOPLISTS are important. And yes they are. They can make night and day difference in your outgoing productivity on traders sites!
Biggest mistake I see is this:
People create thumb site with mass amount of thumbs (all in 1 table) with MAYBE some small spacing each 20 rows, and after that they insert small top 20 trades without any text or anything what would make surfers click!
It's wrong, and even with 70% skim it won't bring your traders good prod from you, so you will need to heavily over send...which you can't because of high % to content, so people mostly simply drop down % to content and here comes another shitty site who's probably going 2 sink soon or at least site will never be of decent quality/size as it could be.
Here is what to do:
Give your best traders decent push from true links, not just skimmed traffic, because each click on toplist is SURFER who IS WILLING to see another page, not forced by you or your script. Because of that he will be click happy and tho increase your OUTGOING PROD.
Here are some guides how to setup toplists:
1) If you can add toplist in header, list your top 3 - 5 traders there, make it stand out, make it different then other elements on page, write some small text description below name, here is sample, what would you click before?

2) Add your top 15-20 traders below first table with thumbs, make them in 3-4 cells, make them stand out, make border around it, change background color of toplist table and add different link color, it must STAND OUT!
3) If you want you can continue adding 3 by 3 traders after each next table with thumbs
4) On bottom make toplist with as much as possible trades, and make sure to somehow make 10% of best trades highly attractive by increasing font size or wrapping some text/signs around...so if you have 60 traders in toplist, make 6 of them on top with some description and bigger/bold font!
5) Make toplists SE friendly, it's simple as cake, here is sample code:
...this way you will get hits counted and in same time you will give them some SE boost because of extra hardlink to trade site!
6) Think outside of the box, be inventive as possible, toplist can help you to grow your site, add hardlinks to trades you push up, give them virgin skim-free surfers horny as hell and willing to click!
7) Loading toplist links in "_top" target can give you even better and more productive outs but it can hurt your internal prod, it's also thing which can work so it's more then worth testing it!
8) If you make thumb toplists, thumb with text below it linking to trade sites, make highly visible sign that it's partner site, not gallery, because horny surfers don't read, at least 90% of them it's not, so those toplists are fishy to make, people MUST know they will not go to gallery but to trade site!
Summary:
Here are some stats of toplist clicks, you can maybe that way better imagine their importance, stats are site-wide so you can even multiply it by 2 if you use single page site:
Header Top List ~ 1%
Top 12 below first table ~ 2%
Footer ~ 8%
Other hardlinks leading to trades ~ 1%
Total ~ 12% virgin skim free clicks, with amazing out prod!
Toplists are way to go to make your site rock-solid and give your trade partners push they deserve, visit pages that give you best prod, you will see you are high on their toplists, also those with shit prod probably have small toplist on bottom.
Make them big, make them visible, watch for your internal prod, make balance between thumbs and toplists, with right placing/styling you will notice amazing results!
Hope I helped to someone!
