I don't think that most babelog owners use a special script for plug trading, most is done manually.

I have yet to find a plug trading script for my babelogs that worls with WP. I tend to use Xclicks as a trade script and it has a rotator feature that is pretty cool. As a trade script it sucks though, because it does not have much in the way of functionality and control. Clickzzs is a good trade script but it does not have a rotator. I do manual posts, but I also use an RSS aggregator that I have had some success with. If you want more info just PM me an I will give you some more details. You can check out two of my blogs here too: Vixen Thumbs (uses XClicks) and Met Girls Blog (uses Clickzzs)

Thanks Stonehammer. Yes my blogs are much better than my raggedy ass TGP that I am trying to figure out. As a free host, I have found Thumblogger to be one of the best. It give you much more control over content and layout. There are a lot of free hosts that are WP based but you have no admin rights as far as downloading plugins, header mods etc. Pornblogspace is pretty good as long as you don't need any WP plugins. I have some blogs on them, but I don't maintain them much. You can check out two here: Asian Honeys Erotic Honeys I could not modify the header info directly but I got Xclicks to work by using the SEO plugin that comes with the blog. Plugrush widgets do not worl with Pornblogspace, but they do with Thumblogger. With Thumblogger you can modify the header, CSS, HTML, whatever you need really. One of my main Thumblogger blogs is Finer Nudes Blog Sensual Writer really sucks because no scripts at all will work. Only e-referrer will. I have pretty much abandoned the free hosts. I set up some subdomains on my main domain and installed WP on those. By using Xclicks and its rotator, I increased my traffic from trades, even though Xclicks sucks as a trade script. I have yet to see a WP blog that uses TP or Proton. I tried to get Proton to work on my WP blog but modifying the htaccess file caused the whole site to go down. I am no expert, so there may be way to do it. That has been my experience. Other people may have a lot more knowledge about it and may know of a good gallery plug script.

hm, btw is it just me who thinks that there is a difference between a babe blog and a babelog?

While a blog is mainly targeted to get SE Traffic with keyword rich post and sends traffic usually only to sponsors, a babelog is a totally different world. Of course you try to optimize it for google too, but most of the traffic is from your trade partner sites to your own hosted galleries (or as a variation only to your frontpage like artinude.com or nudespuri.com).

That beeing said, I haven't seen a new babelog that have made it to a decent size for a while, unless you already have a couple of other sites and/or good contacts.

Otherwise, is there still a market for a babelog script? If so, maybe I'll jump on the bandwagon and code it...
