Arrow Web Traffic Machines by Bishop Anders

Anyone heard of this? It's got some features like Traffic Geyser, but there's a bunch more...

Has anyone used this?

I have to admit, I subscribed, have been paying $97/month, tinkered with it a bit. The "engines" seem to have value. But what turned me off is that you have to use them through a "front end" piece of software which doesn't work after you stop the subscription. If you're going to charge $97/month, give us a web interface. But if I have to install a bunch of software on my machine, I'd like to own it at some point.

Anyone else try this? I'll probably just go w/ traffic geyser, although this seems like it's got more bang for your buck...

I just got the trial version. I have found that at least 4 of the software programs won't even open for me, including Auto Yahoo, which is the one that is supposed to help you get a lot of traffic off Yahoo.

The Voodoo Blogger doesn't work as well as it should and I end up having to do most of the account creation manually, and I have to spend a lot of time fixing the posts. It still saves time, but not nearly as much as I expected.

I have tried the Ping Slinger Generation 2, which has worked like it is supposed to, but I have gotten no results as of yet.

The Directory Submitter is difficult to use, so I just ended up going back to the software I was previously using, which is Brad Callen's Directory Submitter.

The Google Pages software does not work at all because Google Pages is not accepting new sign-ups, as they are moving to Google Sites.

All the softwares that find blogs for you to post comments on don't find relevant blogs when I use them. I keep getting blogs that are completely off topic and not related to my search.

The Gmail Genius works partially, but because of the way Google has set up Gmail you have to do a lot of the work manually anyway.

I have run the Stealth Advertiser a few times, but I am not even sure what it does, and I have not seen any increase in traffic whatsoever.

The Tag and Ping Master doesn't actually ping anything, it just creates accounts on social bookmarking sites and then submits to them, all fully automated. I tried it and again have gotten zero results, even though it claims to get results in no time.

The Shoutbox Submitter does not locate relevant shoutboxes, and sometimes does not even locate shoutboxes, just webpages, so I was disappointed with it.

The Stumble Genius will not register accounts for me, so it is completelt useless.

The Proxy Genius works great, and I now have a great proxy list.

I am currently running the SE Clicker. It takes a very long time, so I have not been able to see results yet.

I have used the UN Auto Blogger to find some good blogs to post comments to, but more often than not the sites it returns are irrelevant.

I have bot yet tried the other software, but I doubt it will work much better.

Also, the support is terrible. They tell you to read the FAQ and if your question isn't answered there, that you can send in a support ticket and they will reply within 48 hours if it is a valid question. I have sent in multiple tickets about different softwares as almost none of them are working and I have followed the tutorials to the letter (and I am NOT technologically challenged, I am an above average software user), but I have not gotten a response after a week.

I would just go with traffic geyser if I were you. I am working on testing the rest of the software, and I will post again once I see the results. So far though, I am quite disappointed.

I had tried the MarketerSOS Membership awhile back andI will tell you flat out, I don't trust these products. i used to work heavy Black Hat stuff, but the fact that you get a Black Hat guy's software on your computer stinks of Spyware to me and I do not trust it one bit.

I had some decent results with a few things, but it had a lot of bugs and wasn't worth the issues I had with my computer over it.

It is my recommendation to stay away from all of these associated products.

I have tried this but did not work on my PC and their support sucked and did not solve the problem with activation code. Stay away, IMHO.

thanks for all of the input, warriors!

i'll keep away from this one. i just joined a mastermind seo group - it's about 8 weeks of webinars and coaching... i'll let everyone know how that goes and maybe give you some good tips that i've learned..

Well, I've been trying these products for the past 2 months and before I ever relized any effect they might have had they all stopped functioning. And their official support system is down, their MarketerSOS forum is down, you can't get any support at all, Bishop don't return any emails, the products DO NOT even open any more.

There you have it. I just canceled after 3 months of membership payments and no results to show for.

Another one bites the dust at the expense of the subscribers.

i have been a member using these products since this membership opened. i have ran into no issues what-so-ever and love them. use them weekly. and everyone of my support questions were not only answered.. but quickly. i did find some of them difficult to understand (newbie and learning what everything meant) but their support sent me lots of links to help me learn a few things and for that i am most grateful
i guess they are not for everyone but been a blessing for me.

I have just gone over the sales page and got kind of interested in this product. However from all the negatives on this site I've changed my mind.

Now ohMEohMY, if you can rebutt shorwood's statement above detail by detail according to your own experience. You might be able to overcome some of the negative opinion, but otherwise your vague statement of "I have ran into no issues what-so-ever" might just mean you never fully explored the software like other's have, but does not express any true working experience with the softwares.

So I'm glad I don't have to spend $97 just to find out the softwares are junky after all. Thanks guys, your opinions are saving a lot of people from this kind of experience.

Hi !

I have cancelled my account. Got a lot of spyware-warnings on my computer and the programs were full of bugs. Only got a few programs to run (with no success). By the way several Twitter accounts were deactivated by Twitter because of using his Twitterprogram.
Have written several emails to him belonging some program bugs, but got only an email, that I should follow the help-guide more carefully.
Have written several posts on his forum asking for help with installing programs, but the post were deleted within hours.
He is only communicating regular, when he is pushing his new programs.
Stay away from this programs, it's terrible getting all this spyware-errors and it's hard to get rid off all the programs components while trying to deinstall !

Right, same problems here. Now if only some other marketers in this forum would actually use the products that they push their "after the sale" back end marketing, they wouldn't put so many of us at risk with unknown programs like this one.

At least you're out, Good Luck.

This powerful program takes perfectly legal loophole that exists in traffic exchanges, and uses it to give you massive banner exposure on other people's sites for free or very cheap. So instead of just getting a ton of untargeted trash hits to your own site from those 'traffic sellers', you will actually be generating thousands upon thousands of credits from banner exchange programs which will be providing you with targeted real traffic.

Just my two cents but my experience with this program was also not a positive one.
The download file itself contained a Trojan downloader MSIL-agent.bn in the software executable, so my AV stripped it out.
I was absolutely furious and off course went submitted a ticket, to date like many of you I've had absolutely no response back.
Not impressed at all.

Hi folks

I just found this thread after being presented with a $97 offer to buy PLR to all the software mentioned here - plus a few others. It seems that Bishop Anders is getting out of his software business.

After seeing the comments here, I can understand why!

I'm glad I found this thread. I've just saved myself $97!

Regards

So has anyone gotten ANY of the software to work? I can't believe they've been around for a few years and NONE of the software works.

My biggest concern is that the software is no longer effective. The PingSlinger is 4 years old. Does it even work any more? Or can Google spot it and ban your site?

Yeah, I just ran across this software package and this 5 day firesale is ending tomorrow 11/22/09. I'm glad that I'm connected to the warrior forum. We all already know that the price says it all. I mean $97 for 40 software programs. IT has to be full of bugs. I would guess that you would need additional monies to hire your programmer to make the updates and fix the software. If you were to going to purchase this software, I would plan on spending another $2000 possibly to make it your own. Let's say that you developed one of the programs and created a campaign from it and then use some of that income to create two new software programs and start selling those as well. I mean you can look at this a couple of ways. You buy the programs with source code, put the work into the programs or you can look at the all the reasons that you cannot make it work!

It really depends if you're wiling to hire a good programmer(s) to help you get it right so that there isn't any spyware and the bugs are far less and that it actually works.

I still haven't decided to make the purchase myself, still on the fence and will make my decision tomorrow after sleeping on it.

Will let you all know what I decide then...

That's a good point, ddistco. I also deciding if it's worth my time and if I'll actually get any use out of these things once they're fixed. They all look like black hat stuff that may no even work anymore because Google may have come up with work arounds, in which case it's not worth the effort.

I have a different perspective on fixing them. I'm a professional software developer and I specialize in C#, so removing all the bug will only cost me my time.

But the big question is: Is it worth it? I'm not really sure what these apps do, assuming they do work. Soooo...what if these apps were bug-free? Would they be worth having? Are they still relevant? Forget resale. Would they be useful to someone doing affiliate marketing?

Can someone who actually understands what they do shine a light on their value as working apps?

Thanks fredh1630,

I think that would be great if someone may be willing to shin some light on what theses programs actually do. I think Shorwood gave the best review of this software and their support. In the video the guy states that they didn't give support very well to the people that bought over that last few years.

This product is still being sold on ClickBank ($37 for a 10 day trial, then a $97 monthly recurring fee). Don't know if any of it has been updated, but I think I'll steer clear of it.
