Welcome to The Truth About Internet Marketing - Internet Marketing Solution

What’s up with that guy who has been scammed 37 times? It seems like I could run a search for apples and that ppc ad would still come up. He must be using every keyword and keyword phrase known to man. His advertising campaign must be costing him a fortune from all the clickthroughs that he must be getting. Unless he is a really dumb marketer he has got to be making money with the thing because that ad has been there for a long time.

I did click on the ad to see what he was doing so that I could add some good tidbits to post here but unfortunately there really isn’t anything to tell. What he is doing has been done many times over.

He offers a free report that reveals the three worse scams that he found. That free report is nothing but an email with three lines of the types of products that are scams. He doesn’t even name the products. Of course you are required to subscribe to his list in order to get the report. I opted out as soon as I received his email.

His pitch page is nothing special either. Same old review type of thing. He basically says out of 37 products that he bought 35 of them were total scams which leaves me with the question why does his ad say that he was scammed 37 times when he says on his pitch page that he was scammed 35 times? He also goes on to say that he had spent $4800 on the 37 products that he bought. He gives the impression that the 37 products were all information products. That would be about $130 on average, for each. That sounds pretty high considering the average ebook costs somewhere around, $30 to $50.

He also linked to the testimonials on the two sites that he was recommending in his review. I see nothing special there because just about everyone is doing that anyway.

There is nothing different about the two products that he recommends either. I know that one of them is good because I have read it. I can’t tell you about the other one because I never used it. They are not new products. They both have been around for a long time. So there’s nothing special there.

If you are waiting for me to tell you that I found something special that he is doing with that ppc campaign, sorry to tell you that I found nothing that would explain why he is doing so well.

The only thing that can explain it is for some reason people believe that review. I don’t know why because there’s nothing new or different about it from any other review that I have seen.

It’s been a crazy around here since I wrote the review on Day Job Killer last week. Traffic to this blog has more than tripled and is still going strong.

I use statcounter to track traffic to this site. Statcounter is a very detailed stat tracker. One of the nicest features about it is that it gives you where your traffic is coming from. All you have to do is click the where from link and you will be taken to where the click through originated.

What I found was that people on forums were leaving comments about my review and supplying a link back to this blog. The same thing was happening on other blog sites as well. Most of the original posts on these sites were asking if there were any unbiased reviews about Day Job Killer.

I also found that I was appearing on the first and second pages on the major search engines for certain keyword phrases. On Google I appeared second and third for two related posts. The thing is, I appeared in many cases for keyword phrases that I would never expect to rank on because I didn’t use these keyword phrases when I optimized that post.

When I saw what was going on, I started running searches for phrases like ‘is Day Job Killer any good’ Is Day Job Killer a scam’ etc. I took the results that I found and went to the websites that related to those results and posted to them and of course dropped my link in each post.

I know it must seem like I am blowing my own horn here but there is a point to be made. The point is if you find something that is working well and is very hot, run with it. Don’t sit back and hope it continues to go well. Do whatever you can to give it the best chance to get as many people to your website as possible.

Contrary to what most Internet marketers tell you, IM is hard work. There is no free lunch no matter what you are told. Chalk this type of claim to someone trying to sell you something and leave it at that. If you get a run on any type of campaign make sure you do whatever it takes to give it an extra push.

I know that the hype about Day Job Killer is going to die down sooner or later. That’s why I gave it that extra push to get as many visitors here with that post as I could. Now it’s up to me to make sure that I keep them here by providing them with helpful and informative posts. That’s the key to keeping your visitors coming back. I can tell you that not only has the traffic to this site increased, the amount of returning visits and the length of time that people have stayed here has gone way up.

Create a buzz and get people talking about your website if you can because there is no amount of advertising that you will ever do that is more powerful than word of mouth.

There is no secret to what I did here. I brought people here and gave them an honest, straightforward, review and didn’t try to make them sign up for anything or try to sell them something. I simply gave them what they came for. Approach your online business in the same way and the rest will take care of itself. Give your visitors a reason to listen to you and they will.

I just stumbled upon this site and found it so ridiculous that I couldn’t help but post it here. They sell an ebook called The Fall Of The Gurus. If this isn’t a scam then there are no scams. I have never heard of this site and can’t find anything about it when I run a search. I have to say that this person can’t be making any money because I don’t know how anyone would be able to find the site. I don’t remember how I found it myself.

Basically this manual claims to show you how to get any ebook online for free. Come on! How can that be possible? Does it teach you how to hack the ebook owners ftp site? Maybe it’s something as stupid as asking for a refund.

The comical part of the sales page is where the gurus supposedly sent him some nasty emails telling him to take down his site. I say him because he calls himself Mr. Anonymous.

He has one testimonial on his sales page telling you that he doesn’t want to bore you with countless testimonials. My guess is that he got lazy after he wrote the first one.

He puts the standard, it could be $197 it should be $97 but for now I am only going to charge you $47 for this valuable information. Act fast because I may raise the price at any time. He can raise the price all he wants because he isn’t making any sales because no one knows anything about him or how to find him.

I just got finished reading Day Job Killer and all I can say is WOW! I don’t mean that in a good way. I know that I said that I wasn’t going to buy this but I just couldn’t resist. I had to see for myself what all the noise was about and whether it is as good as everyone says it is.

This ebook is an insult to every legitimate Internet Marketer. The strategies in that ebook are some really dark black hat strategies. Actually the strategies in Day Job Killer give normal black hat a bad name.

I can’t tell you what the strategies are in that ebook because of copyright infringement problems that I would have if I did. I can tell you that this ebook is not cracked up to what it claims to be.

The ebook is very poorly written with so many spelling errors that at times you have a hard time figuring out what some of the words are. The layouts of the strategies really suck and are unlike what the author and his affiliates claim and are very hard to understand. There is not enough detail for any one strategy which makes them very difficult to understand and I’m sure even more difficult to implement. For the most part I had to read them several times to get any kind of understanding at all.

If you are new to pay per click it will be impossible to succeed with the Day Job Killer strategies. Even if you are a seasoned pay per click marketer I guarantee that it will take a lot more work and improving on any given strategy to make any of those strategies work. It makes me shudder with anger every time I think of the claim that Day Job Killer was written for the every day marketing Joe!

Even if you do completely understand the strategies in this ebook I urge you to stay clear of this because I can tell you with almost certainty that it will cost you more in ppc advertising than you can afford or will ever get in return. The shame of it is a lot of get rich quick naive newbies are going to jump on this and run with it and not realize what has happened to them until it’s too late and they are broke.

While I can’t tell you how to do any particular strategy, I can tell you about one, and what it is supposed to do. I remember this particular idea because it infuriated me so much that I wanted to put my fist through my monitor. What it claims to do is to knock off a successful ad campaign that has been running for a long time. In other words make that marketer take his campaign and run for the hills to never be seen again.

I can’t even imagine doing something like this. That PPC marketer got there by probably testing his or her ad and probably has spent a lot of time, money, and effort to get there and then some snake comes along and destroys everything that he or she has worked for. I highly doubt that this works. What infuriated me about the whole thing is that it is being taught in that ebook and there will be a fair percentage of people out there trying it and a few will succeed. Most will fail miserably.

These types of black hat strategies run well for awhile until the search engines put a stop to them and then they die just as fast as they were born. There’s a lot of work involved in getting something like this going and you will have lost a lot of time not to mention all of the work you put into it when the search engines slam the door shut on these tactics. If you haven’t made the money that you wanted to make when this happens, what will you do then? Will you wait for the next fad that comes your way and jump on that too and hope that you’ll do better this time around? If that’s the case, expect to be right where you are right now; a place where you just spin your wheels in the mud.

Black hat marketing hurts everyone, not just the black hat marketers. Crap like this doesn’t serve any purpose except to drive up the already expensive marketing costs to do business online. With crap like this going on all of the time, I am absolutely amazed that people trust enough to buy anything at all online.

In my opinion, the only people who are going to make money with Day Job Killer are the owner of the ebook and the affiliates who were involved with its launch. The rest will lose their shirts.

I guess you have to ask yourself this question. Are you marketing to build a long term online business or are you in it to get rich quick? If you are in it to build a long term business, stick with what you have been doing because you will be get there far sooner than the get rich quick guys out there and you will be far and away more successful. If you are the latter, expect to be exactly where you are right now, but a lot poorer. Comparing Beating Adwords and Day Job Killer

Since November of 2006 I have gotten nothing but product launch after product launch emailed to me with promises to be the next big thing on the Internet that will change your life forever. The newest one of that long list is Day Job Killer that was launched today at 11:00 AM EST.

Day Job Killer is supposed to help people quit their day jobs (hence the name) and promises to teach you sneaky and underhanded techniques that only the Guru’s know about. It goes as far as saying that the ebook will teach you how to steal traffic right from under their noses. There are a bunch of supposed unknown strategies in there that you would need to get the ebook in order to find out about them.

The ebook was written by Chris McNeeney the author of Adwords Miracle and Affiliate Project X. I have read Affiliate Project X and will say that it is very informative and well written.

I generally like the stuff Chris sells but I have real doubts about Day Job Killer as it sounds too good to be true. I’d have to say that it probably is. People have been sucked into this thing big time. The fact that you can’t even get to the order page to order this thing tells me whatever strategies that are in there will be saturated within a day and become useless.

The fact that Clickbank is so overloaded with traffic from this thing tells me that this product will be useless come tomorrow because so many people will be using the same strategies in the ebook that those strategies will be so diluted that they probably won’t work at all. Of course who knows if they do in the first place.

I’m guessing that Chris will make more money on this product than he has made on all the products that he has sold combined and will do it soon. That’s saying something since he is over a million dollar a year marketer. I’m not surprised by the success this thing is having because just about every big marketing name with huge lists are promoting this thing.

I know that Chris has been legit to this point. I question if he is with Day Job Killer. I hope it is because there aren’t many out there that you can trust. I’m definitely going to pass on this one. There is too much competition. Besides the only secrets to being successful in any business are hard work, a great attitude, and a lot of motivation.

Blog blaster is a submission software that is supposed to submit your ad to 2 million blog sites. The software is a piece of crap and doesn’t do anything that it claims to do. Don’t waste your money on something like this. In my opinion, this software was developed with one thing in mind, to separate people from their money.

Since most blog sites have some kind of plugin that will stop outside submissions should tell you that Blog Blaster is not capable of doing what it claims.

Sebastian Foss, the creator of Blog Blaster, from my own experience and what I have read about him is not exactly the most upstanding Internet citizen. He has also been involved in other crooked schemes as well.

I’ve never used blog blaster myself. What I’m telling you here is what I have read about the software and its creator. From what I’ve read, and what I know, both are pretty bad.

I’ve known about Sebastian Foss for quite awhile because I was on one of his spam lists that I never opted into. I tried to unsubscribe several times from his list but that request was ignored. I ended up having to put a block on his spam mails.

Before I blocked him, I did get an email from Foss about a data entry program that he was promoting. When I ran a Google search on the data entry program followed by the word ’scam’, I found a nice tidy list about the program and that it was nothing but a scam. The program has a money back guarantee that was not honored when people started requesting refunds. Emails went unanswered, and from what I can see, these people never got their money back. You hear the same type of complaints about Blog Blaster as well.

The biggest shocker is that Michael Glaspie endorses Blog Blaster and does so from the Blog Blaster website. You can check out the Blog Blaster sales page here. http://www.blog-blast.com

If you look here you will find the data entry email that Sebastian Foss sent me along with the sales pitch on his website. I submitted this as an article to Ezine Articles a while back as well as posting it on this blog. I removed the program name and Sebastian Foss’s name because I felt that Ezine Articles might reject the submission if I included them.

Anyway, stay away from anything that Sebastian Foss is involved in. Chances are whatever it is that he is selling is probably not on the up and up.
