This guru made 90k in 4 months but his squeeze page looks very cheap...

Hey,
I came across this guy who claims to have made over 90k in for months with CPA marketing.
However, his sales page looks home made...quiet cheap...what do you think?

Should I believe this guy?

    'Home made' could be a selling point.. a lot of marketers make their sales pages look cheap because it implies that "anybody can do it", so potential customers think they don't need any special skills or tech knowledge.

      Even if I made 1 million overnight I'd probably be highly likely to do some of the work myself depending on what it was so the girl above could be right. He could also be liar.

      There's only one way to find out round here.

      Go into the product reviews section and get some answers about him/her.

      Though judging by how you strcutured your signature for here I'm guessing you're a lot more smart than to have to ask a question like this.

    I agree with Louise, but you shouldn't always think that because a lot of marketers will say just about anything to sell you their product.

    I saw a guy doing exactly what your claiming, infact he has like 200 gravity on clickbank right now...

    His sales page is nothing but a blue background and a white letter... no graphics or anything..

    Also he has no header, its strange how he has this much gravity, the intro audio on his sales page is him shouting like a retard aswell...

    How can anyone buy products from these sort of people =/

      Clickbank gravity is faked a lot of the time to get more affiliates onboard.

      Then when the affiliates start driving traffic they put a light box on the page to catch their real target market before they've even read the headline.

      It's pathetic that people have to fall for it and IMO they (product owner) should be ashamed of themselves. One day (hopefully) it will bite them all in the butt!

        Actually I think you're being overly suspicious and just making assumptions
        up out of thin air here.

        It is almost standard practice to add an opt in form to follow up with
        your traffic and the bit about clickbank gravity getting faked a lot is
        absolutely ridiculous!

        It's people like you making stupid statements like that that make so
        many people think internet marketing is all a scam etc.

        I'm not saying people haven't faked their clickbank gravity in the past
        but saying it happens a lot is is wrong.

          Yes, *some* CB product owners do place opt-in boxes in header - which is prejudicial to affiliates.

          Yes, CB gravity can (and it is) *worked* by product owners.

          It's people like you making stupid statements like that that make so many people think internet marketing is all a scam etc.
          Know what I find wrong? The easy drop of the word "stupid" when you can't even read what was posted.

          Here:

          Agree 100%.

          IF I am driving traffic to a product page BUT the product owner puts a opt-in box at top of site AND/OR visible 1 second after a visitor gets there, he's just taking care of his profits, made from MY traffic.

          So yeah, it's dead wrong.

            At the end of the day the person is building the list to increase
            profits. It is a sales page afterall and it's their website
            to do what they want with. If you don't like sending traffic to a site
            building a list (even if the form is right at the top or a pop up) then
            don't send your traffic, simple as that. Just move on.

            But if the visitor is cookied for 60 days then
            the website owner building the list should increase your profits
            theoretically. So I don't see what the problem is.

            Could you explain further what your actual problem is with
            site owners building a list on their site?

            Thanks.

    True story:

    Had a customer who needed help with some offline stuff. We re-design ALL his offline stuff and we also did a BIG re-design on his company website:

    What was supa dupa design... turned to a ugly, fuzzy, flat, boring design. And he wanted to kill us.

    BUT the conversions changed to some really interesting numbers and he understood one thing: He needed to market in same way his market moves, talks and buys.

    As soon as he started doing so, people started buying from his company.

    We even used low quality JPG's, fuzzy 40% quality banners and those were the ones with better conversion rates.

    I think some of the people that make the most online do the least to demonstrate it. The days of making wild, get rich quick, claims are over. It's the recession, and many aspiring marketers are not only put off by such claims, but often offended by them.

    Some one making such amount of money online should be a guru. Let him provide you with an evidence of his other works/success. That should be a good way to start.
