Dear Warrior Fellow,

All of us, who work hard in order to get the best traffic to our offers or sites, know very well about scammers in the "solo ad industry", I have been scammed also at the beggining of my online activities, and I know very well how fishy scam-offers smell once I see them, nonetheless many of us count on the good reviews that many solo ad sellers show in their sites, my question: is there a way to detect when a review is dishonest and carries the only purpose of trying to "give a hand" to a solo ad seller in order to scam us? ...I think that self-experience is best, so I am requesting the help of some experienced people to gather as many of us as we can here, and share what we know about this scams and provide all readers and newbies with propper tricks and methods to evaluate the fake reviews that some solo ad sellers show in their sites to get us buying their crap...ROAAARRRR UP!!

    • Lots of peopke get scammed by facebook solo sellers too, it is hard for the majority to determine reliability ROAARRR...
  • Don't just depend on testimonials. Do more research on the solo ad provider. Check reviews and even opt in yourself to see what they are sending out and how often.

    I wouldn't just go 'blindly' purchasing traffic from a solo ad provider. It can take a few weeks or even a month of research to find one's that do work.

    Make sure to track everything. Create 'separate' campaigns for the solo ads and make sure to put in some kind of tracking to see how much traffic you actually got from each source.

    When I was new, I got burned by one of these dudes. Paid $100 for a campaign and luckily for me I had tracking built in to my marketing page so I knew this solo ad provider wasn't even sending my broadcast to his list.

    I got my money back though!

    Some solo ad providers are reputable but some are not.

    Take heed!
  • If you looked around the forum, there's plenty of threads about this already.

  • The best way is to actually optin to the providers list yourself. Also do a forum search and google search of the solo ad provider.

    This is what i always do.

    • In the Solo add sellers Promotional site, you MUST SEE!

      1) Actual Identity of the buyer,
      2) Actual Website of the buyer
      3) Date of the purchase - Date of delivery.

      ...anything else?


      *Not because you see a very well known name testifying in favor of a solo ad seller it necessarily means that testimonal is valid. ROAARR UP PEOPLE!
    • When you google search you can see good as well as bad-scammer sellers, very good at scamming people (and trap newbies with ease for sure!) that is why I opened this Thread in the first place, to help and low this scam rate as much as possible for the WF readers, so. going into a forum like this is, of course, one of the most useful things to do, even though it will all depend on your own research to find the best seller as well as be sure not to be caught by these scam masters, who are only for your money, and never deliver, or deliver crap and false traffic.

  • I think solo ads have totally lost their quality and there are WAY TOO MANY bad and over priced sellers as well. I used this source for a long time but found the subscribers are of little value. Using Facebook Ads for leads is SO MUCH BETTER! You pay LESS and get better, targeted leads.

  • yes opt in and see for yourself
  • There is actually a large group of sellers that just trade fake reviews with each other. So I look at reviews carefully.

    I look for a review written by someone I know and trust. I then contact them to make sure the review is real.

    Over time you build a list of solo ad buyers that you trust. Note I said buyers, not sellers. Then do a quick check with them when you see a review left for a seller.

    Then build your list of who you buy from.

    Basically a chain of who know who.

    • Yeh!...I like your method, thank you for sharing this with the Warrior fellows, we need usefull insights from people who have succeeded in buying solo ads from reliable vendors, it is a very good approach, identifying the buyers to find out who is a true testimonial, and who is just a "heloping hand" among fake solo ad sellers. ROOAAARRRR OF APPROVAL!!!
  • I also used solo ads and it left my bank account drained
    and a list of non responsive tire kickers.

    I agree with the fat bottom girl:
    "solo ads have totally lost their quality and
    there are WAY TOO MANY bad and over priced sellers as well."

    You rock fat bottom girl...YEAH!
