Are
you Cheating?
Top50's Wants visitors just like everyone not fake hits that make their stats go up and waste their bandwidth. The concept to top50s is a fair link trade. You are NOT doing anyone a favor by loading sites in image src or 0 frames. Basically anything that does not allow a visitor to visit the site or force the surfer to visit the site automatically is consider cheating. A rule of thumb is If you are not sending a visitor by clicking on a link you are cheating. Here are some basic rules: |
  What
is cheating? |
Definitely Cheating! |
| Img Src. Definitely a no no. Loading sites as images. | |
| 0 Frames Same as above. Loading sites in a non functional frame. | |
| Opening sites in a windows that a) does not have a gateway page. and or b) the windows is not functional i.e. non scrolling, non sizable | |
| Opening multiple top50 sites with just one click. | |
| These are definite things NOT to do. If you do any of the above you will be considered a cheater. | |
|
Cheating?
|
|
| Opening sites that has a gateway page in exit consoles (should clarify this with the webmaster of the sites) | |
| Blind Linking i.e. pic#1 links etc. (most sites do allow this but some don't, again find out from the sites' webmaster. YNOT do not allow this for example) | |
| One click allowing to open a pic window and a top50 window at the same time.(verify with the webmaster if he allows this) | |
| The above needs to verify with the webmaster of each sites to 100% sure. | |
|

| All the above rules applies to sponsors Plus | |
