Here's how to get your text links on my "Links" page.
It's going to cost you only $5.00 and your link stays up for life!

Disclaimer. I want only legitimate music, video, audio/sound, art, and media related web sites. No, and I repeat, NO porn, hate, racism, scams, gambling, mlm, "squeeze pages", or any illegal activity. I'll review every link before payment and I can refuse any website based on the above criteria.

By making the agreed on payment for your link, you are affirming that your website is and will follow in the future the content described above.
Meaning that if you change your website from a music to a porn site down the road that you forfeit your link and payment.
Overview - What's in it for you:

I have officially "closed" new additions to my links page. But, you can still get your website listed.

It'll cost you $5.00 USD (per link). This is a one-time fee! Yes, you pay only 1 time EVER! Your link will be there for the lifetime of this website (which started in 1997). The one-time cost for links will go UP as time passes so get listed now.


So you get a lifetime text link to your website and I get $5.00. Yes. And that's a link and a 1 sentence text description just like the ones on my "links" page already. That's where your link will appear.


Why do you want to be linked from my website? Easy. In the world of the internet, links are like gold. They are the pathways that humans take to get from one site to another. But, more importantly, they are the pathways that the search engines take to map the internet.


This website gets a lot of search engine attention. Why? Well, it's been on the internet since 1997. It's been routinely indexed by search engines thoughout its entire life.


As of May 23, 2008, F7sound.com had an Alexa rank of 690,891. So? Think about it.... There are estimated to be over 8 Billion web pages on the net and that changes every minute! Calculate 690+ thousand out of 8+ Billion. This web site is easily in the top 1 percent of traffic on the internet.



Your $5.00 goes a long way since this is a "lifetime" link. "Lifetime" means the life of this website which has been online since 1997. Do I expect this site to be online in 2028? Yes, that's my plan! 2038? Damn right! This site will stay up barring any unforseen disasters, acts of God, or similar.



Why am I waiting 11 years to do this? Because you can't argue with an 11 year track record. I mean, would you pay to put your link on a site that's just been up a couple of months? F7sound.com (this site) went live in 1997. Yes, I know I've stated that a bunch of times, but I really want you to know that this site has been live and will be around in the future.



Remember, the clock is ticking. I'm going to be RAISING the price of these links as time passes. Why? Because I really should be charging more to begin with. And, in fact, I have charged more for text links that had a time limit on them in the past. Your links are lifetime (the life of this site which in on its 11th year already).



I can choose to close this offer at any time and for any reason. But, if you already have a link on my page, and your site follows the criteria described above, then it stays. Remember, lifetime!
I approve all links to sites based on content:



Sites eligible
include only music, audio, sound, video, art, and similar media related web sites. Commercial sites are fine as long as the content is related to the above. MySpace band sites are fine.




Sites not allowed are porn, hate, gambling, racism, drugs, illegal activities, scams, mlm, squeeze pages, fake sites and similar web sites.




Your link will be placed on my links page: www.F7sound.com/gal.htm




Remember that I decide on the web sites that are eligible to be linked. This is to protect the integrity of my website, F7sound.com




All payments will be made to my PayPal account (see sidebar on the left of this page).

Here's what you need to do:


1) email me: mike@f7sound.com with the link to your website and a brief 1 sentence description of it.


2) I visit your site and if approved, I'll email you with a confirmation link to the payment page.


3) You pay me $5.00 (USD) to my PayPal account. I'll send you the link to the payment page.


4) I post your link on my "links" page (usually within 24 hours) and it stays there for the life of this site.
