My partner just added a toplist page to our traffic exchange. What are the advantages of this other than getting more traffic to another part of our site? We get a few links out of it, but the number is very small. Is this worth having and maintaining?

The link is http://toplist.wiseguyhits.com/

Apparently you're using an automated tool in link exchange. Google might read that page as a link farm.

To be honest I really don't see the point in it. There are better, and easier ways to get better quality links.

I agree with edgray I think this is fairly pointless. I wouldn't spend any time on this.

top lists were all the rage 12+ years ago, but these days it is considered quite spammy. I would avoid participating in or hosting any top lists. It will just attract the wrong kind of attention and associate you with spam.

link popularity is one of the most important factors in ranking, links from popular information hubs will help your site rank be higher than those from low traffic sites.

Honestly speaking, I only see toplist sites on adult websites now. I really don't see any mainstream websites that is still doing this toplist thing. And I don't think that it is beneficial for a website anymore.. There are lots of other things that are way better than linking on these toplist sites.

yes, you are right Zeruel there are lots of other things which are better than linking to these top list sites...
