Spammers Watch Out! Online Marketers Be Careful!

2009 is coming to an end soon and this has been a fantastic year with the evolution of internet – sites are becoming easier to make (no more hard coding of the html language) and more people are coming to the social media sites (e.g. facebook and twitter) to express themselves.

This may sound good but also mean that spammers have more chances to make their move (more of that later) and if you (especially if you are an online marketer) are not careful, what you may lose are not just your credit card details (nearly, for me…) and also your favorite password!

This Can Happen To You Especially When You Have A Hot Product

There was a recent promotion of private label rights product membership offered by Calvin and Jonathan of IM Buzz Creators and these are some good PLR products. Before the intention to sign up for it, there came a sudden email offering me a Platinum Membership (no monthly membership and I can get the monthly product for free with only a one-time fee of $4.95 – sounds good right?!)

This is the email of what I have received:

As the site have since been taken down, I can’t show you the evil scheme that these spammers have used to “nearly” cheat me of my credit card details. But what they have done are as follows:

Jimmy D Brown’s Membernaire Program Reopens!

Jimmy D Brown’s Membernaire Program Reopens!

Time really pass… more than 6 months ago, as I first set up this blog to post about my interest in reviewing online marketing products, Jimmy D Brown’s Membernaire Program was the first one that I did my first review.

Amazingly as well, was that, as I finished posting that, the membership program (for 1,000 lucky members) was closed.

Today, as I am typing this, Jimmy D Brown’s Membernaire Program has re-opened after 6 months (Affilicore is 6 months old as well). The rate of joining or the rate of shrinking available membership is even faster as compared to the first launch.

If you have any intention to set up your own membership site, let Jimmy D Brown show you the way.

If you still do not know who Jimmy D. Brown is and what is Membernaire all about?

Who is Jimmy D. Brown?

Firstly, Jimmy D Brown is the man that you should go to steal his knowledge. He has created many successful sites like Profits Vault Monthly, Nicheology, Content Goldmine and List And Traffic. His income per month just for 2 of his sites: $70,000 per month or $840,000 per year!

Secondly, most of the programs out there are teaching you traditional methods of creating your membership site. Imagine having to use large investment of time to prepare your training materials, buying and installing expensive and complicated script, racking your brain constantly for fresh contents or even to struggle to keep your subscribers in…

Jimmy D Brown’s Membernaire

So what Jimmy D Brown did was to remove all this hassle and in place, a Fixed-Term Membership site whereby you just need to produce 2-3 page article lesson every week, broadcast your lessons using an autoresponder and selling the access.

It’s that simple and remember… a Fixed Term membership site can be setup in 48 hours or less; easy to maintain; no expensive scripts needed; easily maintainable and most importantly, keep your subscribers happy! (more money!)

Do you have anything to lose? I guess absolutely not, because of the money-back guarantee!

Entrecard Is Clearing Up The House

Entrecard.com is implementing a spring cleaning of its network by the 1st July.

Those who are dangerously affected will be those who are using “Quick Drop” aka “Power Drop” pages.

If you do not know what that is, simply put, a blank page with an Entrecard widget, sometimes with some extra junk like an ad in there too.

This move is crucial as Entrecard is preventing the users to make use of these techniques to earn quick and huge amount of credits.

Do not worry, if you are operating a blog and using the widgets in the blog, this is perfectly safe – they just do not wish to see users creating a blank page with only the Entrecard Widgets in it.

My personal advice: It does not pay to be greedy!

Exploring More Into SocialSpark.com

The Rise of Boo Boo’s of Twitter

If you are on some of the mailing sites of online newsroom, you may be getting some bad press on Twitter… and…

If you are in your Twitter’s account, you’ll notice this:

Twitter will be short some features while we recover from a database crash. See our blog post for the whole story.

And as you read further on in the Twitter’s Blog, more signs of dark clouds hovering, like:

• A popular blogger accuses Twitter of refusing to enforce their Terms of Service
• An errant API project overloading their main database, resulting in the error pages and slowness most people are now encountering.

Are more bad things to come, let’s really keep our fingers crossed…

My two-cents worth of view and suggestion for Twitter:

Twitter is something unique that I have ever came across after blogging and RSS Feed. Why? Blogging invites the updating of the latest happenings anytime, anywhere… RSS Feed makes every blog portable and easy to access…

Twitter is the combination of both (blogging and RSS Feed) in congested form – easy to access, straight-to-point, updated information.

At this juncture, what I am seeing is that Twitter is growing at a rate that’s way too fast. (it’s a free service and many popular bloggers are heavily promoting the use of Twitter – because of them, I have some people following me now…Wow!)

Secondly, may I know who is supporting Twitter in its expansion? Where are the revenues coming in from? There are no banners, no Google Adsense and no donation box in sight.

For such a good service, I do not mind seeing some banners or some advertisement sponsorship. Do you all agree?

Entrecard + MyBlogLog = More Traffic!

Entrecard + MyBlogLog = More Traffic and Better Social Networking!

I believe this is a rather good formula.

After my blog post on my experience with the new Entrecard, I experience a small surge in the traffic for this site.

There are more people requesting to drop their “Name Cards” to my Entrecard. (My principle, you drop – I approve!) Thank you! Thank you!

You can also see more new handsome-looking, pretty, and trendy profile faces in MyBlogLog Widgets.

If you are having a blog and like to attract more traffic -> readership, more participation – add Entrecard and MyBlogLog Widget to your online marketing resources today!

They are all free and what do you have to lose?

Another good feature to mention for MyBlogLog is that this free service will help to update your personal page with the latest post and link all your tags to the whole community. Good right?

Spice Up Your Twittering with…

Have been observing some of the Gurus – Ed Dale and Alvin Phang for instance, on my twitter account…

Seems like they are using a few evil-in-making tools to help spice up their twittering experience.

Let me be your spy… and see what they are using. It’s time to bookmark them if need be. Are you ready?

1. http://twitterfeed.com – Provide them with the URL for your blog’s RSS feed, and how often they should post to twitter. Seems good if you are promoting an affiliate link. (a standalone service)
2. http://www.alertthingy.com – as claimed. It’s a desktop app for FriendFeed.com (what’s that?). Seems to work well with Twitter and Flickr with FriendFeed.com as the main core of attention. (could this be a new plot for world domination? – Ed Dale is using a lot of this to post to Twitter…)
3. http://www.seesmic.com – as claimed, it’s a so-called dashboard for your videos. Still in alpha stage. Another evil plot in the making…
4. http://www.twittergram.com – designed to work like a telegram service but Twitter style. Comes with MP3 uploading service. Will somebody sing me a “sexy nurse voice” birthday song?
5. Twitter Tools – a wordpress plugin designed by Alexking. As explained… This plugin creates an integration between your WordPress blog and your Twitter account. Pull your tweets into your blog and create new tweets on blog posts and from within WordPress.
