      I see alot of so called reputable IMers giving it praise. Are they just saying that or did you have an advanced copy to review?

        My wife owns it, she is in affilliate marketing, her niche has made her around $60,000 thousand per year, and when we search anything related to her niche, or keywords, nothing at all that comes up is correct, not even close....

        So, my evaluation is based on not only first hand looks and searches from within the web-based online program, but from a standpoint of a semi-successful affiliate marketer.

        I personally told my wife to get a refund on the product, because the stats it pulled up were not correct, it left tons of info out, that we know personally about, from working within our own niche. Stats that it should pull-up. So, if it can't even correctly pull what we KNOW to be true and correct and out there up, then how reliable can it be on anything else that we have no clue about? More than likely, not very reliable at all.

        I think that the only way anyone sells anything, is to hype it up to some degree or another.... so just because some so-called reputable marketers say its a great tool, does not mean that it is....

        At least this one isn't....

      Thanks Steve, I pay more attention to someone who owns it and actually uses it than to all the comments of praise on the sales page by people who "are about to buy it" or "just bought it" or are promoting it as affiliates.

      Yeah, I'm curious about this too and although other reputable sources claim it to be good, these reputable sources are also affiliates, JV's so... you know.

      If I promoted to my list, I sure wouldn't leave trashy posts about the product on it's thread. BUT, I may be inclined to leave posts of praise in order to ease the minds of readers so they may buy the product.

      What strikes me as odd is the lack of action on it's sales thread. If this thing is remotely as cool as it's suggested, I think there would be waaaay more action, instead of the 6 pages or so of posts.

      With that in mind, I think it's probably a let down. Just a hunch is all.

    From what I remember , Google Cash was suppose to do the very same thing that this
    software purports to do, except I think it is a monthly program, much more expensive.

      Folks - doesn't it surprise you that all of these "reputable" IMers who are highly recommending are also making affiliate commissions off the sale of it AND the same people will be releasing their next WSO next week some time no doubt and the same "reputable" IMers will be praising that product too.

      Here's a piece of advice, a testimonial should come from someone who has used the product or service in question and given appropriate feedback. Steve Wells is telling you his REAL experience. If you choose to believe people who haven't used the product telling you how great they think it is going to be for YOU without having spent any REAL time trying it themselves, then go nuts and buy.

        I've used the product, think it's a great value and
        frankly I don't agree with Steve Wells humble
        opinion.

        And Sean Kaye, name names or shut the **** up
        because you're lumping me with a group of people,
        the claim you're making is/could be true of ANY product
        and I'll bet you a BIG-ASS cheeseburger you
        haven't tried the product yourself - which means
        you don't know **** about ****.

        Am I wrong? Please tell me I am.

        I've tested it with markets I KNOW - as in "I've
        been in them for OVER 10 years, successfully"
        and it's giving me useful information. I bought it,
        I like it, I've shared it with my lists as a
        recommended, useful tool.

        Does it top the Cadillac on the market at $97
        per month? No. If you need a Cadillac, go buy
        a Cadillac.

        So, I don't know what Steve is seeing but he's
        not seeing what I'm seeing. I'm not saying he's
        wrong, but I am saying I don't agree.

        X

        PS - To ease the suspicions of jaded little men
        I don't know Bobby Walker from Bobby Jack.

    I'm a user of the system and its not very good for my niche, dont like it now as its very slow to load.

    I might post a video showing a genuine review of me using the system with real keywords not pre-selected and you can see its not very good.

    Maybe for some niches its awesome, but not mine.

    Hey .X. - did you go off your meds or something? Where did I "lump" you with anyone? You hadn't even posted in this thread? Daja72 said he sees alot of "reputable" IMers promoting it and unless you just fell off the back of the turnip truck and are so wet behind the ears you fell into a puddle, you'd know perfectly well how that reciprocal mailing BS works.

    Also, I never commented one word on the product - I said Steve Wells gave you his honest opinion whereas MOST (virtually all) of the "testimonials" are from people who haven't implemented it. Most of the testimonials are "I just saw the sales video, this is EXACTLY what's going to make me money, it is perfect". Again, that's a fact.

    If you have a REAL testimonial you'd like to share, then great add it to the conversation, makes the place better.

    Just because IMer's give something praise, dose not mean they are lying...they may actually believe that a product is good. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that they have tested the product and/or compared it against hard data...so they may not know any better. They just trust what they see.

    That being said, Mr. Wells gains nothing from his review, yet has claimed to have tested the product against real, hard data.

    That should count for something.

    you noticed that too? check with bobby walker at the FSO, he can give you the low down of the scum-bag who created this BS... basically, b/c he isn't making money from the script he doesn't want to host it anymore on his server, but he is gracious enough to offer a service for $67 a month at mixrank.com that can give you the same info... the the f**ked up part is that, affiliate profit goldmine was sold with lifetime access

    Looks like another scum-bag taking peoples money for "lifetime access" and running. This guy needs to be outed so no one gives him another penny again. This is what gives the business a black eye.

    I actually bought this piece of poo and was going through some of my tools in my spreadsheet and clicked on the link. The site is gone!
