Poor converting sites can hurt you

Published on 21 October, 2006 in learning process, take note and the dark truth. 0 Comments

I am taking down Adsense on a few sites as a test after reading how one poorly converting site can “smart price” an entire AdSense account.

This was pretty old news (posted Oct 2005, a year ago) and it is a surprise that I had not ran across it all these while.

How much truth this piece of information still holds? Maybe my test and some research will show some results.

Adsense is Dead

Interestingly I found this new marketing spin call “The Death of Adsense“

Normally I get bombarded with so many “marketing guru” email daily that I just ignore the pitch. But something about it caught my attention.

First was the graphic, impactful, shocking, got my attention.

Then it was the free report. Yeah I got lots of free reports saved on my harddisk. Wouldn’t mind adding another to the collection. Why not?

Then I found that I was duped! The guy before got paid $0.50 just for me to download it. (That’s Fifty, five-o, 1/2 a dollar, NOT a fraction of a cent!)

What! The guy behind this spin is on drug or he is crazy or both! A viral marketing like this would create thousands if not tens of thousand of download. And he is paying for each download!

Well, what you waiting for? Click here to bust this guy and earn me 50 cents.

The biggest lie about Making Money Online

The biggest lie floating around Making Money Online goes like this

If I can do it so can you.

This is what some “famous marketers” are using to get to you to buy their “ebook”. It is an outright lie.

Why?

Simply because the fact that someone can do it does not mean that you can. This is a logical fallacy.

So think about it when you see sites or advertisements with message like this:

  • “I make $99,999 with Adsense, so can you.“
  • “I make $88,888 with Affiliates, you can too.“

In the end who is making more money? You or the guy selling you the information?

If they are already making so much with Adsense, why are they spending so much time and trying so hard to sell you the information?

There are enough free resources that give you the same thing. The next time you pull out your credit card to buy one of those, think again. Do not be the next fool.
