Default Affiliate Annihilation by Anthony Jones

Hi All,

I have just been sent to Affiliate Annihilation by Anthony Jones by Mark Anastasi. I have not had much luck finding honest reviews without affiliate links.

Has anyone taken a look and applied his methods?

I bought it just because I saw the request for a review here...

From what I can see it is about setting up single keyword sites, using twitter etc - So, would probably be a good course for someone that either hasn't gone that direction before, or someone that was looking for additional information with regards to that kind of stuff.

I didn't buy the upsell, only the original course for $39.

There is some software included, which I didn't fool around with, but it could be worth it for someone that is relatively new.

Arrow Re: Affiliate Annihilation by Anthony Jones

Hello purchased and returned this product. I did not bother with the upsell which may have been where I went wrong (highly doubtful). There is nothing new in this product that I haven't found elsewhere. Judging by the quality of base product I would strongly suggest you keep your money. I didn't even bother with the software that came with Affiliate annihilation as the content was just so underwhelming. What do you get when you buy AA:
1) His secret methods that for the most part can only be described as mainstream.
2) Amazon strategies for selling products (not my cup of tea personally low% commision per sale, no thanks).
3) Some PPC "techniques" that he vaguely describes you can use for movies and music.
4) A backlink packet that should never see the light of day ever. I mean EVER!! 5 links seriously are you kidding me....really! Angela Edwards should smack this guy in the back of the head.
5) This is the best part.....wait for it........horrible customer service. I waited like a week to get access to some of the "content" for this product. Yes a week.... And to get the refund on the product I first requested it from the vendor from whom I recieved no response. I had to go through clickbank to get the refund taken care of...yeah.
6) and yes there is still more, just recently got this in the email:

My name is Andrew Fox and I'm taking over the Affiliate
Annihilation product development. To ensure you get
future updates and a few extra bonuses I have planned you
MUST confirm below.

the funny part is, to "confirm" your subscription for the product you already have, you get redirected to a sales page for another andrew fox product, Gee thanks.

Okay so by now you might think this is some sort of rant, and that is not really how I would like to come off. This is just an honest review of an inferior product. I have gotten far more value from products that cost much much less then/then (sorry I have poor grammar this late at night...er all the time) affiliate annihilation. To my fellow warriors you would be better off looking through the WSO section and spending your money there as opposed to blowing the $39 on affiliate annihilation.

Oh and since I like to be a good reporter of information I will say that there was one "interesting" (sorry i like my quotes and parentheses a little too much as you can see) tidbit of info. In AA there is a website that you can use for PPC with a flat rate of 5 cents per click.

Well that's a pretty comprehensive review. I take it you haven't purchased a red Ferrari for cash then?

I didn't try it, because it's all stuff that I know and things that I've been implementing for a while now...

If you have purchased more than 3 IM products, you more than likely know everything in the product.

If you are brand new, and still trying to get a footing, pick it up for $39 and give it a go.

Basically it breaks down into 2 types of sites "harvester" and "monster"

monster sites = authority type of sites

Harvester = Sniper type of sites

They give you some backlink packets and that type of stuff, so all in all, if you are fairly new, the $39 isn't a bad price for what you get, but if you have any experience at all, you will probably be disappointed...although, there was some software included that I didn't mess around with so, that could make it worth it, but I'm not going to waste any time trying it out. I have all the software I need.

I love the Warrior Forum! I read a great sales letter, start salivating, then come in here and learn the TRUTH! Even if you can and od get a refund, it's the TIME you waste with this kind of garbage that costs the most!

You should've come across the upsell right after the initial sale. The upsell i think was another 30-40 dollars for the member elite area or something along those lines. I didnt opt to purchase this, so I cant say if that was extra new content or or some kind of special forum access. I also believe it is a monthly fee but not sure it has been a while since I purchased AA. I hope that answers your question.

For "Affiliate Annihilation" read "9 to 5 Annihilation". Exactly the same product as far as I can tell. As a member of "9 to 5 Annihilation" I was supposed to get access to this new and improved product complete with all the tools, etc.

All I got was the same backlink packet, also offered as part of the Affiliate X membership a few months ago and some other info that was given with 9 to 5.

9 to 5 Annihilation went belly-up after about 2 months. Personally I wouldn't touch this product or any other offers from Kieran Gill.

My $0.02

Interesting, I opted out and got my money back after a day or 2 because they didn't deliver.

Just purchased the product to see what it is - boy am I dissapointed

1. I never got to register: After I made the payment, I was send to a page where I was suppose to register with my name, email and phone number - the funny thing is; there is no button to click after filling out the details, just a blank screen right to the bottom!

2. I have learned in the past to read reviews on products here, and not on the www - this time I didn't do that and now I am waiting for a refund from clickbank.

just my 2 cents

Take care

Hi Gouldmine:

I bought this a week or two ago.
Bought the basic one off price not the monthly upsell.

The sales page (hype ) claims automated software to achieve most of the tasks needed.

I have not yet found any software for keyword analysis nor for niche research. I can see the 'web site generator' which looks like a form that drives a Wordpress installation into any target domain for which one enters paswords
Yes just confirming that the Software and Tools page (one of 5 links off the main menu in the site) there are only 2 software 'tools' listed
Auto Twitter Annihilation
and
Auto WordPress Installer

I do not know much about Twitter yet.
I am concerned that whatever it is will underdeliver just like most other things I have seen here.

However over the next few days I am going to check this out in detail.
I bought on 27 August so have time before I claim the refund.

Rather more important for me than whether the sales page is truthful is whether this outfit can support me to make money.
Sales page claims Kieran or someone is readily available by email for support. So I will test this (support hours mon-fri 10am - 7pm UK time - from welcome email)

So I will actually ask them about the automated software I expected and see what they say.

As well as simply following the 4 Step program they suggest to developing a 'harvester' site: a site built around a single well chosen keyword.

Very disappointing so far. Will report more over next week or two.

Regards
DreamShaper

These appear to be the same tools that were on a failed venture of Keiran's about 6 months ago. Recycling is a great thing for plastic and paper - I'm not sure it works so well with software LOL

MOD NOTE: Edited out extraneous comments that referred back to a deleted
post which had nothing to do with the product under review.

wow i just checked its gravity on cb - 299!

for what doesn't sound to be a flash product from the reviews here.

i entirely agree - i don't know where marketers get off creating these video sales pages etc where they say you won't find this anywhere else, it doesn't involve this and that and you buy the thing and they've lied through their teeth.

i mean really you'd have to live on the moon to not have heard about at least the concept of most marketing methods by now -- i think it's quite shameful.

now that i'm having a gripe i also hate it when you see a lot of hype about a product, the product makes heaps of money, then the owner sells the entire thing on flippa.com

so many seem to be after a fast buck rather than creating something that's ever lasting and of ongoing real value to their customers.

i'd feel pretty annoyed buying a product based on the credibility of the owner when they go and sell the whole enchilada after they reached high gravity they were after.

sorry for griping....

I have responded to a similar post and wanted to share it here as well as I don't want anyone to be duped by 9to5annihilation like I was.

================================================== ===============

I am a member of 9to5annihilation and I have to say, although my first impression was "this is utter CRAP" waste of money, my thoughts soon changed when I saw a video which went through everything. I thought it had prospects.

Well, having scoured the site it turns out to be a very small and basic one and unfortunately my thoughts are back to the original and that is I have DEFINITELY WASTED MY MONEY on this. The site is never updated, the video I mentioned is a "part 1".. (but there is no "part 2" anywhere!) and you never receive any core "guide" which is promised in the sales letter.

I have contacted the site owners for advice and direction, but I have yet to hear back from them (I have now sent them numerous emails).

I am now contacting them for a complete refund as per their site guarantee, but unfortunately I do not have much hope they will honor it.

I feel it is money lost.

I highly recommend you leave them WELL alone!

All the best,

Daniel
