The June 2004 issue of Klixxx Magazine focuses on one of the most debated topics over the years: how much free content is too much free content? TGP and Free for 2004, this month's Klixxx talks about the effects this traffic source may be having on our industry.
Our June Editorial is all about the changes that we are facing in the industry and a reflection on just how far we've all come. Spam issues, free site marketing, use of free content, sex parties and international search engine exposure round off the issue, giving our readers tips & tidbits that will help them to improve their sites and their revenues. The "too much free hardcore" issue gets tackled by our staff writers and for even more impact, industry legal expert Larry Walters sounds off with his feature titled, "Get Into Jail Free Cards," which focuses on re-evaluating free hardcore websites in the current legal climate.
A preview of this month's Cybernet Expo in San Diego, California, another edition of Rick's Rants by Rick Latona and Last Licks returns with Brian from TotemCash.com discussing the importance of attending industry events. Subscribe today and don't miss a single issue!
