As I said, the script is trivial, but it’s a good way of seeing how DOM works. Enjoy!

The report promises to be 30 pages long, and it’s only 16, filled with crap. Lots of phrases and ideas don’t make sense whatsoever:

PTC sites are usually a lil costly, but you must understand. You are getting targeted traffic. For eg. PTCAddicts.com has a cost of $1.19 per 100 referrals. Now you might see about 1000 visits in $3 only offers. But you must understand. This traffic is not targeted.

Someone please translate this…

If you advertise on PTC sites, it means 2 things. Firstly, the visitors who are coming to your ad are going to be PTC site users themselves. So, there is a fair chance that they are going to sign up for the PTC program you promote under them. This is a golden opportunity, and one of the best methods of targeted ads. Most of the sites that we have listed above have the ptc advertisement opportunities so you can use them and get the most of the PTC website promotion.

1) What’s the second thing? 2) The only remotely clueful idea here is that advertising PTC programs on other PTC sites gets you targeted traffic which might convert better. Well, no sh*t, silly ol’ me, I was going to advertise on fashion and real estate blogs! </rant>

And let’s get down the Seller’s “unheard of” promotion techniques:

1. Signatures in forums
Blah, blah, blah. Every new kid on the block hopes he’ll get hootloads of
referrals by spamming DP, GPF, WF and TG with spammy posts and sig links. It might have worked 10 years ago, it won’t do jack shit these days.

2. Advertising on PTC sites
I was hoping for some information on building landing pages that outline the benefits of that program. But no, the section only reiterates how advertising gets you referrals and how much money you’ll be making from your ref’s clicks. Thank you, Captain Obvious!

3. Mailing list
Lame attempt at a sales pitch for GetResponse’s services (advertises a ref link). No mentioning of other (free) options.

4. Article marketing
Presented as the only option of getting high in SERPs.

A research shows that people make about 53,992,923 searches on google every month for keywords related to PTC. So what does this mean for you? If you manage to get yourself on the top rankings for your referral links, you will be hit upon with so many users under you. I am sure it must be sounding insane! But it is a fact. It is so important to have your site on top of google, and cash would be coming in big proportions.

Good luck ranking #1 for such keywords, lol. The Seller obviously has no clue what s/he’s talking about.

The ebook is junk and doesn’t provide useful information for neither newbies nor seasoned users. The sales page is highly deceptive in this manner. The Seller *might* be making $30/day from PTC programs, but doesn’t show any reliable information on how to do it. If I were to hire a content writer to do such an ebook and got this piece of crap I’d turn it down.

I asked for a refund and got it within 24 hours. Thank you, Clickbank, for the prompt response!

There will be most likely no major fuss for the great majority of Triond publishers. Average articles get less than 100 views per month and, with the 50/50 revenue sharing split, you’d be lucky to get one click per month. It could, however, scale if you have tons of content published.

It has been said that Adsense pays better than YPN lately. Let’s just wait and see how Google will evaluate Triond’s pages and how high the eCPM will get.

According to their site, affiliates get paid $0.14 for every free domain registered.

1. Earn $ 0.14 for every single Free Registered cz.cc Domain! (source)

What they forgot to mention was that you get paid for one domain per customer. If a user registers 5 free .cz.cc domains (the maximum allowed as per TOS), you only get $0.14.

However, it converts nicely, and the minimum thresold ($ 16.57 <— WTF?) is easy to reach.
