    From what I can find profitjackpot is a article and video autoblogger.

    I already own may other, not sure this is even worth the time it takes to post this.
    But a few legit(I feel) are emailing about this.
    I made his video full screen and grabbed two of this domains.

    hxxp://buyandsellhomesnow.com/

    and

    hxxp://improvesatscoresnow.com/

    Its pulling video from youtube and posting the comments.

    Not sure its worth it since i already own a few other autoblogging software

    Hi Darren

    I would be careful of this Anik puts some good stuff "sometime"
    but putting up all of those spammy sites looks good but in the long
    run want be worth anything If you are interested in autoblogging
    I would suggest you go check out Mike Johnson Autoblog blueprint
    Mike knows his stuff and will teach you step by step if you follow
    his plan you will start making money.

      One thing you should know about Profit Jackpot is that the comments being pulled are simply being pulled from YouTube videos - and the way Anik's promotional video shows them being pulled indicates that his system is violating the YouTube API's terms of service in at least two areas:

      Terms of Service - YouTube APIs and Tools - Google Code

      1) He's disabling links back to YouTube in the comments.

      Under II. Prohibitions
      "Your API Client will not, and You will not encourage or create functionality for Your users or other third parties to:

      #6. "modify, replace or otherwise disable the functioning of links to YouTube or third-party websites provided in the YouTube search results or otherwise provided through the YouTube API or YouTube player;"

      2) Showing ads where the only content of value is the YouTube video.

      His example sites have several instances of pages in which there are only the YouTube and some of the YouTube comments.

      However, under "Monetizing Your Application"
      Using the YouTube APIs to Build Monetizable Applications - YouTube APIs and Tools - Google Code

      The YouTube terms state:
      "Note: If the only reason people go to a page is to watch a video, you should not run ads on that page. If you don't know whether you can display ads on a page, consider whether you would still be able to sell the ad inventory if you removed the video and all references to the video from the page. If so, then you can probably display ads on the page."

      In the case of Profit Jackpot the only thing that would be left on many of the pages are the comments that are feedback about the video - i.e. the entire reference point for the conversation would be removed.

      Which makes me wonder what he meant when he said in the video when he assured the viewers that it was all being done "very legitimately".

        Now don't count terms and conditions here because if one is stepping in autoblogging then he/she is already breaking rules and regulations in many ways..

        I won't recommend autoblogging..Create a good sustainable internet business first and then think of these things.

          True enough - what I was getting at more was that he was telling people something was being done "very legitimately" when it clearly was not.

    Thanks jfrovich, I kept trying to read the domains and couldn't make them out.

    I'm definitely troubled by some of the categories and articles the buyandsellhomesnow.com site pulled in. Certainly R rated and could get you a bad reputation. It would be to your advantage to constantly check your categories and posts for unsavory content.

    I agree with jfrovich, there's much better autoblogging scripts, plugins, and software available.

    Regards,

    In a weak moment, I just purchased Anik's Profit Jackpot including the addtional upsells.

    I registered into the Members' area and was looking forward to some step-by-step, hand-holding training videos. Instead of getting the usual quality training videos from Anik, I got cart-before-the-horse and hard-to-understand videos about WP installation and setup.

    Unless it's still forthcoming, there doesn't seem to be any instruction on how to select domains, even if you bought the Niche Jackpot which is supposed to give you 100 ready-to-go WP templates. It jumps right into using Fantastico when you haven't even purchased a domain or hosting yet.

    I was so thoroughly discouraged after forking out $540 that I couldn't even get through the second video, and just requested a refund for the whole shebang.

    It just seemd to be a hastily put togethjer product, and from what I'm reading here now, maybe even dancing around possible legal issues.

    Another example of great marketing and poor backend.

    I'm still p***ed that I wasted the whole night and I really should've done my homework properly. At least, I'll sleep tonight.

    While watching the video I took a look at some of the sites he made and to be honest they were pretty bad with a lot of irrelevant content. I've purchased some of Anik's products before and they have never lived up to expectation, so I think I'll take a pass on this one.

    WOW... very glad I came to the WF to do some due diligence on this product. I was just about to pull out the credit card. Reminds me of another "tactic" from a guru who offered a DVD for a buck then deceitfully signed you up to a $29 a month "membership" program and made it extremely difficult to get out of. Only when I threatened legal action did they cancel my subscription.

    Needles to say whenever I see that name I immediately delete...

    I've heard a lot of negative reviews about Profit Jackpot, but I've also heard that a couple of people have made their first IM money with it, so since I haven't purchased it I'll keep my opinion out of this. I just noticed something interesting, though.

    Nine out of ten of the "10 sites in 10 minutes" have been hacked. There is nothing left but an eerie song, a logo, and a bit of text. baddoggooddogtraining.com was apparently the only one spared. Maybe a competitor did it, or maybe a web savvy, unhappy customer. No clue. I just found it rather interesting that someone would attack Anik's autoblogs.

    I was emailed a link to it by Greg Ambrose. I watched it just for the chuckles. I knew there was no way that this was going to create unique content that would be ranked by google. When looking for his websites, I couldn't find any of them anyways.
