Google Wealth Maker - Regular hype?

I tried the $5 trial, and I think the only worthwhile thing provided is an 86 page pdf "special report" showing some interesting web20 techniques, but not necessarily focused on the GoogleWealthMaker software.

Main feature #1:
The software auto-posts to your twitter accounts from google news or a text file, adding your affiliate links at the end of the post. Supposedly, this will get you first page rankings on google. As others mentioned, the google news posts aren't very related to your keywords. So I don't see much use in that. Even if you do come up high in the search results, why would someone click on a result unrelated to their search keyword? So I guess you're stuck with creating some sort of text file with a bunch of keyword dense entries for the software to auto post. Sounds like a lot of work for questionable results. Maybe I can buy collections of keyword-rich comments for auto-posting? That might work.

Main feature #2:
The software automatically sends "friend requests" (following) to other twitter users in order to build a list on twitter. Supposedly, these users (and their network) might follow you back and you can market to them. The problem I see is that WHY would other users choose to follow you (be your friend) if your twitter accounts are just a bunch of spam entries? Seems to me they'll just ignore you.

The general premise seems sound, though. When someone designs a similar software that will auto-post keyword-rich posts to several microblogging platforms (like Twitter) and add my affiliate link to them, I'll buy it!

yes, my twitter accounts got shut down too, and even before they did the product was a failure (didn't work the way they claimed).

Have to agree with Stevorino. I bought the product, and yes, they didn't have the member's area done when I first tried to log in (not a good sign). But, it's based on using Twitter to get followers, links, and eventually, traffic to your money pages or opt-ins. The PDF is actually decent, as it has a lot of good social marketing ideas.
But, the software didn't work for me. I set up 5 different Twitter accounts in different niches, with the plan of using the software to send them to CB affiliate links. I customized each page and profile to make it look as much as possible like a real person posting (yes, this is a little grey-hat!). You can set up the software to either post news items or your own short tweets (as they call them in Twitter). I set up two of my 5 accounts with tweets that I wrote, figuring that would look as real as possible and maximize the chances of getting followers.
Well, after less than 5 days, all 5 accounts were suspended by Twitter. Big surprise, huh? After the first got shut down, I sent an inquiry to support. They told me just to delete the account, create a new one in Twitter, and edit the project in their software. Okaaayy.

After the last 4 got suspended. I cancelled immediately.
It does make you wonder how they achieved the results claimed in the sales letter. I'd save your money on this one.

I als ojust had 6 Twitter accounts deleted....wrote to Twitter for each and asked to be reactivated.....maybe that ought to be in the "automation"........seemed like a great idea if it would just function as promised....Oh Well,,,I am learning not to get my hopes up on the hyped up products, unfortunately I'm appear to be still buying them...a marketers dream. If ther were more like me , we would all be rich.

I should have mentioned that I refunded this product pretty quick since I posted that I was going to test it out.

It just made no sense at all.

ditto here

Twitter accounts were trashed. And what was worse I had to make repeated pleas for a refund.

Half the stuff the promised in the sales letter were never even delivered.

Wish they would have just called it "Spam Twitter". Would have fit better.

When Google Wealth Maker was released a couple of months ago I received many promotion Emails about this. After reading the sales page I got the impression that GWM is over-hyped. Reading through this thread says it all.

In the meantime I've unsubscribed from many Gurus mailing lists as such recommendations are unacceptable. They promote any old product without taking the time to find out what it is like.
