Web2Mayhem

Yes, there are all of these things in the Program. And actually, one of the creators IS the guy from John Cow.

I was a Beta Tester for the program and I love it. It's really worth every penny.

I just joined yesterday -- overall very impressive stuffs inside.

If tt it works I should be able to fire SeNuke, 1 way links, 3 way links etc.

Will share more details here

Oh man, just tried the automated software. Can't believe they actually launched this.

You sure Peter Drew didn't come up with this? Because I couldn't get a single submission to go through successfully. Kept getting the message "Looks like something went wrong" and then the whole thing shuts down. Failure after failure. No multi-threading either, so you can only attempt to do one website at a time. The user interface is straight up childish. So many spelling mistakes. And you have to go through "Step 1" of account creation... then "Step 2". Where's the automation in that? And where's the automatic email verification? Looks like there isn't any.

If you wanna stop the program there's no way to even stop it? You have to shut down the entire software. Seriously? The stop button is greyed out. Plus their site list is tiny compared to SEnuke's. If they wanna compete with that monster, they have a long way to go.

I want a refund. How come they don't offer a free trial like SEnuke so that people can test it out before having to shell out the $127?

I'm sure this package is good for all the other bonuses that come with it, but if you really care about automation software to create and post to Web 2.0 properties, stick with SEnuke for now. Looks like it will probably take these guys a year to catch up.

I'll keep my eye out on the feedback as it comes out from warriors who try this out. Personally, with a system like this at this price tag, not offering a trial period really puts me off. I also don't like that the sales page was nothing but text, I don't know about everyone else but I would have liked to seen some video and some screenshots. I'm sure you'll honor refunds, but not allowing people to take this for a test drive I think will hurt sales a bit.

If the promoters of this system are putting their product up against the other big dogs, especially SENuke which is tried and proven, I highly suggest offering a trial period and letting us see under the hood.

That sounds really good, and if all the features are as good as promoted on the sales page, I'd definitely be interested. But again, the majority of the sales page are glowing testimonials, and that's just not gonna cut it for me and I'm sure the majority of warriors here.

If this thing is as good as it's cracked up to be, you can't go wrong with the standard $1 / $7 free trial period...

We are split testing the hell out of the landing page... yes we are going to be testing video as well. Believe me... the testimonials are real, the results are real and this is a cool system (yes i am biased.. lol). Anyway, i honestly appreciate the feedback on stuff for the sales letter... its not going unnoticed... we have lots of things we are testing. Sadly even with the FTC stuff people still don't trust testimonials.

Anyway, you will be able to see inside soon enough

Software Support + Cost of Further Software Development (Programming Costs) dont come cheap.

At the end of the day, unless you plan to actually take action and use the software...you're better off with a one-time payment software that you can touch once every three months (when you remember to use it)

If you actually focus, and dont get distracted, you pick an affiliate product with a $30 - $40 commission and by simply promoting it via W2M, you would be able to cover the monthly membership fee from 4-5 sales each month.

I think those that are serious about affiliate marketing, and actually take action (instead of buying the "latest tool") will find W2M gets them results.

Like I said, I just did a test promotion with W2M and the results spoke for themselves:

Now I'm actually in the process of building an authority website in my local offline niche (hope to finish it this weekend) at which point I plan to go after the Top ranking for my local google searches (SEO, search engine marketing, website design etc.)

At which point I'll come back and let you know the results!

What I truly love about W2M, is the fact that the entire system is designed to be a white-hat as possible.

Could black-hatters abuse it? Maybe.

But it would affect their sites, as they would have suspiciously vast growth.

But the system is broken down into phases, so that those who WANT their rankings to stick AND last, can obtain natural backlinks in a naturally growing way.

That and Jason K is constantly coming up with fresh training to improve results using the various tools...rumor has it there's a couple new tools being added to W2M in the near future which Jason has been testing himself and getting mindblowing results.

But ya...at the end of the day...the true affiliate marketers know that this tool gets results for those that use it. =)

I am also one of the member. Did join a few days ago.

My impression so far... Not very good to very unhappy. Maybe in between of those 2.

It's not about the result, since I didn't have any just yet (well.. I only joined a few days ago). But it's about the WORTH of each tools combined altogether AT that price, also the "difficulty" of using the software. I ended up spending more time tweaking, testing, configuring this and that, than actually USING it.

But yeah, maybe it's still too early to judge everything. I still got time to playing around the tools. The trainings are good, covering lots of aspect on SEO, but you won't learn that much if you already know what basic SEO is.

I will come back again and tell how it goes for me in the next few days.

When were you a member... first of all every site i used as live examples in the training are still alive and making money. As for the sites you are referring too. When you say sites openly shared... by who ... me or someone else, cause all my shared sites are still around.

As for what users have.. it comes down to the 80/20 rule... so ya, 80% of the sites might now be around... which is pretty much the case for any program around today. Some make it, others dont... the ones that do you focus on and improve, the ones that dont you let die.

There are members that have been with PF since December 2005 and pay a monthy fee every month and are making excellent money... so it obviously works for some.

Anyway for 100% of any the programs out there, can you name one that does not have a learning curve? Does not matter what the program is, it is not a magic button, you need to figure it out... the training i say even spells that out clearly. It will take a while to go through it the first couple of times but then it will get easier and easier and faster and faster.

Anyway, i know not everyone will be happy.

No trial set up right now... the biggest reason s we did not want to get too bombarded with people in the blog network right away. We will be doing something with a trial in a few weeks probably. I will keep you all posted.

Nice job Shane, web2mayhem should have paid you to help them with their sales page =p

I'm looking forward to your coverage on the web 2.0 element you mentioned. I'm also wondering if the account creation in web2mayhem is as automated and as smooth as it is in SEnuke. A video showing this process would be nice.

Finished my video showing the account creation process.

Two things about this:

1. I only show two solo account creations, because of time constraints. The auto-function just does what you see in the video, in rapid-fire succession.
2. Sorry if this seems rough around the edges here or there. I had to do some crude editing to stick to the YT time limit.

So, here's the video:


More suggestions welcome!

Shane,

All three of your posted videos in this thread say:

"This video has been removed due to terms of use violation."

What gives?

As a professional reviewer, you may want to look into getting an Amazon S3 account to host your videos instead of being at the mercy of the "free" YouTube (Google) platform.

Hi Shane,

Thanks, and excellent job in covering the Web2Mayhem product features.

Have you done a video on the "Web 2.0 Co-Op" piece ... I am interested to see how this piece works ... I think this would be the most powerful piece in the entire system ... I'll be looking out for it.


Andy

Shane,

Awesome ... thank you for the quick response .... your presentation is very crisp and clear.

This is indeed the powerful piece in the product offering ... which enables you to create 'social buzz' vs simply getting back-links ... I think we will start to see more and more of these social syndication networks emerging in the following months.

Andy

Nice balanced review. I wish I could find more reviews like this. Do you have any plans to review Linkdozer? It looks like it could be a killer system although less automated than SENuke and Web2mayhem.

Incidentally I tried getting on your site RichQuickReview but it doesn't seem to want to load.

This video says it all, pretty much. There is a lot of power overall in Web2mayhem, but there have been some frustrations. I ran into the same thing you talk about on this video, the account creator issue. I ran it through the first time, and of course had quite a few conflicts because I did have accounts at many of the site registered either to my email or to my user name. The next run I chose a brand new email and username. I still ran into some problems (less than the first run) and subsequently couldn't use the tool for a number of sites with the user settings. It would be nice to see this added as a feature (and I wouldn't be surprised to see it), the ability to add a different password, username or email to individual sites. I also think it would be handy to be able to filter the sites out a bit, filter completed, option to hide sites from the list, etc, but thats me being picky. Overall this software is very powerful and it is great to see them keep adding new sites. They are on this thing, its updating often. But only other grip would be the price, over the duration of a year, it adds up to a lot of money.
You have done a great job of reviewing this product. If only every review would be so honest and detailed.
Cheers!

It didn't contain nested spinning =) I didn't get it in every article but for some reason a piece or two would be in some of the articles...articles that would actually submit.

I can not offer a review of six months.
I came upon W2M ages ago and I confess I ended up walking away, it was not what I was looking for, just as BruteForce, SEONuke, Linkwheel Builder and the Incansoft tools were not what the vendors might have wanted us to think they were. Like some of these tools, W2M has matured and grown.

In the meantime I have used Brute Force, then EVO2, Linking Loophole, Ankur Sharma's Linkwheel builder and a metric shedload of Incansoft tools.

I came back to W2M a few days ago vis Syndicate Kahuna.

These are first impressions based upon several years of working in this field. BTW, I was and have been a PortalFeeder member since Day1, December 2005, I took down the last of my PF sites and updated them only a few months ago, they had been running since late 2005/early 2006. Not many of the tools we use last so long.

Here's my thoughts about Web2Mayhem:

1) there is a lot in the box

2) there is a lot to get your head round

3) the basic concepts are strong, basic principals tell me that the results from using the tools as per the training from Jason K and others will only NOT be good if the implementation by the user is poor.

4) the account setup works very well, but one does need to give a second of thought to the usernames, but this is an issue common to this type of softwarea nd the W2M system works just - the second time. First time I was using names that were duplicated on some sites.

By the way, on a partial run-through I got signups at 65 from 69 sites, a 94% success rate, with almost no intervention from me. It would have been a tad lower if I was away from the PC but the system enables one to go back and correct failures.

5) the range of sites chosen is huge and balanced toward quality. Using this tool correctly one is not going to be spamming up Airfix Modelling forums with dog blanket sig lines. I see that the accounts will NOT need to be set up over and over again other than for maintenance purposes.

6) I liked that each of the classes of sites can be used seperately or in concert.

7) I like that when running the tool one is not submitting links for the vendor as seems to happen with another tool I tried.

8) Doing the preparation for submissions takes more work (if done as per vendor instruction) than some other tools but this is in the aim of quality. One CAN also do submissions QBD (quick but dirty).
I like that the emphasis is upon keeping accounts alive rather than slash and burn.

9) I am having problems with the way windows keep popping up and interrupting my work, this baby is going to have to move over to another machine in a few hours. BTW, that is not possible with most of the tools that might compete in this space, here, no issues, W2M is nicely portable.

10) I like that this is a set of tools that enable, they do not prescribe. By that I mean that I choose how to use the beast. I choose how to set it up, I control the quality of the input and output.

11) the coders are obviously well up with maintaining the sites, they make it easy to report dead sites and to suggest new ones for addition. The database is updated several time a month, something I have seen nobody else doing.

12) this is not a tool for the absolute newbie, even though the training makes it perfectly possible for newbies to use - frankly most will be scared off by the work involved and the thinking that goes into getting the best from the tool. If you know nothing and don't want to learn then EVO2 is the way to go. I will continue to recommend EVO2 and Linking Loophole to the right people.

13) some in this thread have recommended the Incansoft tools. I use them and am a reseller of them. They are cheap and if you are a hobbyist or wanting to suppport a website that brings in leads for your VA business or speaker bureau then I'd not suggest anything other than the Incansoft tools. For these people, Web 2 Mayhem is overkill.
If you are a dedicated tinkerer and twiddler then again, Incansoft rules. I fully expect to continue to recommend the Incansoft bots, but to the right people.

So, I'd say give the low cost trial a whirl but 14 days may well not be enough unless you do as I am doing and spend time getting your elbows dirty. Use the support desk and the forum to ask questions, read the blueprints and implement them. The first couple of times you use the W2M software be prepared to sit down and watch what it is doing, I assure you that the time put in at the beginning will pay off in spades later on.

I was a member for a few months when they first launched. I think probably one of the most important things to realize with this type of tool is that you need content....and a lot of it. I found that the bulk of my time was spent preparing articles and such for submission.

It is a great tool for creating accounts, you can pump them out all day long if you want, without too much trouble.
I stopped using it because I didn't feel I was utilizing it enough to justify the price. Perhaps a side business of creating accounts for others (WSO perhaps) would help to offset the cost. And if you have employees to produce your content (quality is sooooo important, this is why IMO PF died, users submitting garbage content), or to run the software for you, or create and manage your sites, etc. Basically what I found is that I simply do not have the capacity to create my websites, write and spin articles and operate the software all on my own. I can, but as I say, it takes time and ultimately results in me not using the software as much as I think it should be used for the subscription cost. I wish there was a 'lite' version for people like myself that may not need to use the software more that a few times a month (once a week or so).

There was nothing wrong with my results.

I tested it the first run with a high competition keyword, just to see how it would do. With that promotion, which spanned a couple of weeks (part time) I was able to go from 1-30 hits a day to my site (PR 0) to around 100+ per day (lots of spiders) and PR 1. I ran a few other keywords through the same accounts with lower competition keywords and did realize some organic traffic. I didn't make any money off of these campaigns, but that was my own fault not the system. I didn't focus enough on 'buying' keywords.

The real key here if you want this software to work for you, and it can work well in the right hands, is you must be reasonably intelligent (sorry, there is a lot to learn, a lot to understand and simple minds just won't get it). Smart Newbies can learn and work this, but expect to cram like your back in University, there is A LOT to learn. Also, this is for people that expect to work...no set and forget pitch here (I am of the mind that there isn't really a set a forget way to make money online). A person that expects to work and strives to product only quality will appreciate what W2M has to offer. If your lazy, or learn slowly, or don't have considerable time to invest, this tool is probably best to pass on.

I really liked the software and service. My thought is to join again in the future. But I am waiting till I have a few different campaigns to use it to promote. Too bad there isn't a one time payment option, or a lower service level, I would be a lifer. I think what these guys have built is by far the best of its kind out there.

I would be curious to know if anyone else has had the same experience as me?

Have just completed the account creation for all of the various submissions which did include the video and all accounts were created.

Have not submitted any videos yet, will let you know when I have.
