The dangers of being uninformed

We all know that things move fast in this industry and that something that can be done one day, it is forbidden the next... and some things were never really allowed, but some people teach them anyway...

Doing some research I just found something interesting,

Affiliate Network - My Weight Loss Experience Affiliate Program

this is the affiliate page of a clickbank product.

If you scroll down, at the end reads:

A few easy ways to make money with my affiliate program

1. Write a review of MyWeightLossExperience program, letting people know how great my product is. Include your affiliate link at the end of the review. Post your review to free sites such as GoArticles.com & EzineArticles.com.


2. Create a free blog (web log) at sites such as Blogger.com, and post your review of MyWeightLossExperience, including your affiliate link. Then "ping" your blog at a site such as Pingomatic.com, so it gets picked up quickly by search engines.


3. Join popular marketing forums such as WarriorForum.com, and make frequent contributions to popular threads there. Be sure to go into your forum profile and edit your "signature". Make a signature that includes your MyWeightLossExperience affiliate link, or a link to your own MyWeightLossExperience "review" website. That way, every time you make a post, anyone who sees it will see your signature and potentially click on your affiliate link.


4. Once every few weeks post a press release at PRweb.com, in which you include your favorable review of MyWeightLossExperience program, along with your affiliate link. If you pay them $80, they will guarantee that your press release is picked up by all major search engines, potentially sending you thousands of visitors.
I can imagine what would happen to a newbie marketer following this advice...

      (Your post surprised me, perhaps because I'm not fully awake and managed to read your subject-line as "The dangers of being uniformed": I was expecting something about a policeman or fireman, perhaps. )
      I certainly was not thinking about hot catholic schoolgirls your honor!!

      Uniform?? lol that should be interesting, yeah... it is a problem, especially when you are trying to take it out. Needs some organization... but that is not information for this forum.

      Yep! they are also recommending using Blogger... it is time I don't play with the big G... they don't have much sense of humour... :rolleyes:

      if they go after it, they will get the blogs deleted, and sometime in the future... they might be erased from other services too.
