    Looks like another scam to me. Let us know if you get your dollar back and how many hours you had to put in to do it.

    What do you consider as a scam? What's your Criteria if a product or service is a scam?

    No Product, no Pay, or a pyramid (or ponzi) scheme where your pay depends upon getting others to buy into the same scam.

    I don't see that there is a product. It looks like you are (supposedly) paid to click on ads. Its not a sustainable business model. If they get paid by the advertisers there leaves little to pay you. I think they make more from people who pay a dollar to join their program.

    Its common sense.

    Have they paid you anything yet?

    A legit affiliates program require you to have a website to place their ads on. The scammers give you a link to spam forums and message boards.

    Dotcomsecretsx offers a product and a service, this challenge that will last for 30 days is to teach beginners like me to build a list and show how important it is. The affiliate program is just a bonus actually. I am in this business for just almost 3 months and I've learned that not all legit affiliate programs needs or requires a website. ^_^

    The ones that don't require a website expect you to "SPAM" for them!

    Google Adwords is probably the highest paying advertising you can place on your website.
    Commission Junction is a legitimate advertiser.
    Click Bank is quite popular (I personally don't use then because I prefer graphic ads over text ads)

    The two auto responder businesses you list are basically promoting email spam. They don't care what or who you email just as long as their ads are on your unsolicited emails (spam).

    The other one is one of those make money online where they provide a website (selling their product) and you do the work for them.

    You might take the time to read the article pinned at the top of this section about making money with affiliates. It can be done but people who fall for every scam program that comes along promising easy money or internet riches keep the scammers out there coming up with new "Programs" to replace the ones that get shut down as many are illegal in most countries.

    We delete hundreds of spam posts here at eForum. We want to see you be successful and are taking the time to educate people so they don't waste their time and money with rip offs, scams, and ruthless people.

    Many hosting companies have good affiliates programs. Hostgator pays $50 per sign on.
    Amazon is probably pretty good but as with all advertising programs requires a large amount of traffic to make money.

    Getting traffic to "your" site takes some creativity and some smarts.Unless you want to make money for other people think about a website of your own.

    To answer your other question I built my first website back in the 90's.

    Good luck,

    Just a few comments relating to the subjects Website Magick brought up. You need a huge volume of targeted traffic, for Affiliate Marketing to pay-off; clicks don't necessarily translate into conversions and in addition to the affiliate network of CommissionJunction, Pepperjam is worth looking into.

    Nice thanks guys, I considered website magick's suggestion and made a website of my own. i just got my domain name and hosting today. my domain name is from Godaddy.com and my hosting is from GVO. I joined CJ when i am still using free website like weebly.com but never got sales as i don't know how to drive traffic and to build a list, I don't even know how to make a simple squeeze page ^_^. That's why i decided to join DotComSecretsX, for the last 5 days i learned how to these stuffs, Setting up autoresponder and squeezepage and in day 6 it's a good coincident Website Magick told me about setting up my own website and Russel Brunson did too^_^. So that's how I ended up setting up my own website. now i have to make it look good. and have to study html, PHP and stuffs cause I still don't know these things^_^.

    thanks again Guys, Hope that you'll let me give you updates about my progress here^_^

    Very good Aaron,

    We wish you luck. Put the URL to your site in your profile here and it will give you a back link to your site. It takes a bit of time to drive traffic to your site but if you make it attractive, interesting and update it regularly you can get there.

    :)

    The great thing is there is a ton of good products out there. So difficult to know sometimes. Before I shell out $$ on this stuff, I usually go to read reviews at http://www.moneyzeen.com, or for SEO stuff, I look at http://www.SEOsack.com. They both have reviews, but the SEOsack website seems to be down. It dont know why. Hope this helps!
    Cheers;)

    I agree, But whenever there are things like these, for me you'll never know until you get in, besides it's just a dollar and if ever i'll never earn from this, i learned very valuable things that i never even had any idea of it. ^_^

    Website Magick till now i've been thinking what content should i put in my website lol.. it's published but empty. check it out amecua.com
