Is it OK to trade with toplists?

[2so2]

I would like to ask if somebody trading with toplists. Is it worth? How about productivity?

I heard somewhere that toplist traffic is much better then TGP and its productivity is high...

any opinions?

thx

It's better than only ok. But main problem is that it's very hard to send a lot only via toplists. So you need a lot of feeder/se traffic to grow and make your site big.
But your productivity will be great at traders sites. No doubt.

Any other good hints abuot trading with toplists???

well, its kinda tricky - toplists tend to reset at some time and you need to send as much traffic shortly before they do that as possible to ensure your top position... so its tricky. I actually never got any trade working no matter how hard I tried. maybe I picked wrong tops or something or I was too lame to do something right.... anyway, you should speak with people that have some trades going with tops.

wouldn't that be a great trade script feature?

To force at a specific time, the time the toplist resets :)
that way you could ensure that you will be high at that time.
