    I am a newbie when it comes to blogs so have soem questions to pros on this board. Please try to answer the following if possible.
    1. How good or effective can blogs can be to generate traffic that can be redirected to other (adult) sites?
    Is it even worth while to have blogs created with sole purpose of capturing traffic and redirecting it to other websites?

    2. Is it better to make blogs keyword rich or sexy pictures rich :D

    3. Should one get a domain name for each blog or are generic blog names like blahblah.blogspot.com are good enough?

    4. When blogs are created using domian names, are they resident at sites like wordpress/blogspot or can one install them on any webhost?

    Thanks in advance to anyone who cares to reply

    1. it is very effective because it can easily get indexed by search engines.
    2. add a few paragraphs aside from teh sexy pictures.
    3. Get a domain so that you could anything.
    4 I don't understand what are you saying but I'm guessing that you meant that you wordpress are just for free.

    --- if this is what you meant then wordpress .com is the free one and you can't put some banners on it. Wordpress.org requires you to get your own hosting on any hosting site.

    I honestly don't think sexy pictures really helps build traffic to a blog. If people want photos like that they will look for them elsewhere.

    Focus on your content, and start getting know in your niche, by commenting on other blogs.

    You are right but a combo of pics, banners and text seems to be best choice otherwise it looks kinda too boring.

    Yes, it is both worth your while and very effective.

    Keyword rich.

    You download the Wordpress script and you can install it on any host.
