When Smart Marketers Go Dumb
May 4, 2007 4:54 am Random General Brainstormed Thoughts!When good guys go bad.
When nice girls get nasty :-)
When rich peeps get….poor?
What am I on about? Well…. I am amazed. Everyday I am amazed at what people will to to sell anything packaged with a “concept” to make a living online.
I am more amazed that intelligent marketers are fooled into buying the same hype that is set up to fleece the newbies to internet marketing.
Enter Evidence 1:
Stompernet:
$800 bucks a month, for what? a glorified link farm. And an “education about building websites with SEO.
Enter Evidence 2:
Under Cover profits:
$300 bucks a month to… copy “potentially” successful google adwords and duplicate them for your campaigns.
Problem:
People I sort of respect in this business have actually fallen for those two…. I won’t call them scams, because they apparently do what they claim, but I will call them overhyped….systems.
Then I see some complaints about those two systems and then “they” realized something I’ve posted before… NEVER PAY A MONTHLY FEE FOR SOMETHING THAT ISN’T PAYING YOU BACK AT LEAST WHAT YOU PAY. Period.
One of the ways to make a “residual” living online is to open a “membership” site. And fleece the unsuspecting with dazzling copy. By the time they realize they are not gettign any vaule that they pay for, its too late… they leave, there’s a “new opening” and then… they suck in the new suckers/ newbies.
What is amazing is people I know who are making more money than me are falling for the above two.. “systems” and in some cases, complaining.
Boggles my mind. Sometimes people become “stupider” when they start making money – that’s the only conclusion I can muster.
Anyways. Here’s the solution to the above problems.
[I] Want to spy on your competition’s ads & copy them? Instead of Under Cover Profits for $300 a month,
Get Competition Dominator for $167… for a lifetime!
Competition Dominator does the EXACT same thing as Under Cover Profits, and it does it BETTER. I can’t put it any clearer than that. It gathers info from Yahoo, Google & MSN and copies the long running ads which are “likely” to be profitable – (a possible misconception since sometimes people just run ads without making a profit – I know I have lol).
You spy on them & copy them & make your own ads. Competition Dominator does the same thing for a one time fee.
[II] Then there’s good ol’ Stompernet.
Hmmmm……. well, you can be suckered in for $800 a month or, you can get your own link farm. And, I can save you 90% on Stompernets money grab. How?
Well, here goes:
(1) download this: SEO Made Easy – there’s your “SEO Education” for free!
(2) Go to this site: WordPress Super Installer & sign up for the free report you see on the opt in box – “How To Set Up An Effective Blog Farm”. Download it and read it closely.
(3) Get a hosting package at Web Host 4 SEO. I am definitely giving away an “industry secret” here, but hey…. the karma I get in return outweighs that fact – besides no one reads my blog right? ;-)
Basically, Web Host 4 SEO gives you a hosting package with a MULTITUDE of IPs – what does that mean?
Well after reading SEO Made Easy you’ll see that ranking is determined byincoming links, from different domains on different IPs…. need I say more?
Well, Web Host 4 SEO gives you rotating IPs…..
I’ve said too much.
Oh the price? like $79 a month.. so you save over 700 bucks.
Maybe I should have peeps just pay me the money they save from reading my posts eh? lol.
I just want to bitch slap people who fall for things like Stompernet & Undercover profits when the cheaper, better versions are available.

How long were you a member of Stompernet? I’m guessing you weren’t, which would mean your comments are based on speculation, not facts, which wouldn’t serve your readers well.
Full disclosure: I’ve never been a member of it, so I don’t presume to tell others whether it is worth joining.

I too am not a member of stomper and I appreciate your post as i have spent the last couple of days sitting on the fence,
But it must be said, a free ebook on SEO compared to 47 full DVDs shipped to your front door, over 10 hours of new content added each month, a TOP members forum, all these things, along with the link ‘farm’ and article exchange program make me think comparing stomper to a free ebook is hardly a good comparison
Were you a member of stomper?

And you know what Chris, there exists something called the beauty of deductive reasoning.
Don’t tell me you’ve never given your opinion on something you haven’t tried and made a logical assumption about. – I’d be willing to bet $797 that you have… :-0
I didnt join Under Cover Profits either, but I have Competition Dominator. I didn’t buy “Get Google Ads Free” but even Stevie Wonder can deduce it’s a scam….
My point in a nutshell is Stompernet is overpriced, and a lot of what they offer can be obtained at a far lower price than they charge.
The only stuff I would pay 800 bucks a month for is if they did all my work for me instead of creating “400 hours of video” – like anyone has time to watch that.

Thanks for the info. I agree with you, and to make matters worse, many of the new services are starting to move to multiple 100″s/month.
Also FYI, I could not find the Blog Farm report on the WordPress Super Installer site and I would like to read it. The software does look great.
Thanks again for sharing your insights.
Regards,
Mike
