looking to build a network for link exchange/promotion. The plan is to get a distributed group of reliable people. Then exchange promotion between group members. The group would need to be relatively small and manage-able. Communication would need to be open amongst the group, but kept private and away from the public. The group of people would need to be quick to respond, and promote new links.

members of this group would need experience, and established accounts in various social media sites, such as facebook, digg, reditt, stumbleupon, etc.

to keep promotion fair amongst the group and to avoid spam, each member would only have a specific amount of links they could promote each week/month. The group would have a maximum promotion per social network to avoid becoming spammy.

Anyone have any thoughts, ideas, or want to join?

Good idea from and useful interest from members like , , , and . The basic goal here — a small, private circle that reliably amplifies each others' quality links — is sound. To make it workable long-term, turn the informal idea into a short operating plan that covers who joins, how promotions are scheduled, how results are measured, and how misuse is prevented.

Membership and onboarding: require each applicant to list active accounts, niches/audience overlaps, time zone and a 7-day response commitment. Vet by checking account age, genuine engagement (not just follower counts) and whether the content fits the group niche. Use a simple onboarding checklist and a one-week probation where contributions are tracked.

Suggested operational rules (examples to adapt):

  • Weekly quota per member (keep low): e.g., 1–3 unique link promotions across the group, per platform.
  • Stagger shares: allow 48–72 hours between promotions for the same link to avoid duplicate signals.
  • No shared credentials; no sockpuppets; no automated mass voting.
  • Require a one-line rationale and a tracking token (UTM) or distinct landing URL for every promoted link, recorded in a shared spreadsheet.
  • Rotate moderation duties and enforce a 2-strike/expel policy for noncompliance.

Measure success by referral traffic, engagement rate, and conversions — not by raw vote counts. Run a 30/60/90 day review to decide whether to scale or disband. Crucial caution: platforms change and many forbid coordinated manipulation; keep promotions natural, focus on content quality, and update the platform list and rules to match current site policies.
