Jim:
Ewen hasn’t impressed me at all since the first product I bought from him a couple of years back. It was rubbish (I know that today, back then I thought it was genious and would make me rich) so normally I just throw anything that has the name Ewen Chia associated with it, straight in the rubbish bin. Not sure there’s any point in reviewing it, as my guess is he’s selling basic knowledge at an unjustifiable high price. I’ll have a look.

Knowing Alok’s style, in the past he passes information long after he has fully sponged the benefits. Like his method of using mispelled and using www at the beginning of products in adwords to get cheap ads and get some traffic sales.

I used it, and found it was already a well abused method. However what was worth the $9.95 was me documenting all his OTO and sales pages. Now I had an exact duplicate sales mechanism for doing the same.

Alok didn’t plan on me doing this, as much as I did not plan on being sold a some shotty adwords startegies. In the end I faired well for the education.

Later on, he came up with a $97 affiliate software program that got Jon Ledger involved. It was great, but I waited and glad I did, because the JV Affiliate Software was far better for the price.

I am glad you read this. I am now going to take an estimated guess of what is in the e-book like a psychic. And yes, I saw the “sucked in factor” right away. It’s good for you to point it out.

There is nothing “quick” about it. Even if you made a sale instantly, you are looking at at least two days to over a week to get your hands on the real cash through your own bank account.
And this would be through PayPal.

Unless you actually made several thousands of dollars in one day, then you could possibly get it wired to you, but only if it was your own product on a credit card processor who already was setup by you with your bank account information intact.

With this being said, you could use western union and have people just walk up to western union places and pay you in hours. This is the only method I know. But good luck on getting anyone to buy this way.

Here’s my estimated guess at the ebook content to save all you readers from blowing $67. I do not have the ebook, and therefore I can legally “guess” all day long without retribution.

1. Register at ezine articles. Write an article with your registered affiliate link on a free blogger account. Point the “Author Information Box at the bottom of a written article you have written, to your blog page. Place in a post your affiliate link with the words, “For more information on…. click here.”

Let the page optimize byitself in the seacrh engines.

Now go and open a few dozen social bookmarking sites like digg, stumble upon. Point links right back to your article. You content will be stuck for years to come on the first page of Google and other search engines.

2. Use Aloks stupid methods of adwords. They are worthless.

3. Use social blog sites and create a buzz by inviting other bloggers and creating a community and joining all other communities related to making money online and your “niche” which your product will be sold in. Then blog on their blogs about your stuff, and get them to blog on your blog about their stuff.

Otherwise known as I call it, a revision of Bum Marketing, called, “Blog Bum Marketing.” and I mean to the max. This is particularly used by unemployed bums who hope they never have to actually go to work again the real world.

4. Go to forums and turn your self into the most undesirable person to come along and piss-off forum moderators world-wide. First started out by Russell fo dotcomsecrets.com, three years ago, this method of registering on forums and then posting like a queen everywhere. You place a nice signature link back to your helpful page on your blogger account and hope people follow your affiliate link and buy.

5. My last guess is to offer to write some content to high profile websites in return for some link love. Hey what a novel idea, if you are brand new to the web. But you will be in a boat of hundreds of others on a weekly basis doing the same thing.

In the end, nothing Alok does is breaking news and he only releases it once he has pounded it into the ground.

And for $77, it is just a test to see how desperate the market place is. No doubt there is another OTO behind this and he will in the future pound those with larger buys for years to come.

This is his style. He lives and breathes off his email lists. He will continue to spam you with at least 20 or 30 of other people’s offers for the rest of your life if you get on his list.

The rest you can read on my blog. I made a backlink here for link love. why not?

Thank you for that quick response!
I will be making this a regular stop off for my IM surfing

Of course everybody has heard about Ewens new product …

Can you tell us about that one ?

At $47 a month, it sounds tempting …

Jim: The only ones’ i’m familiar with is CB Affiliate Formula and Immediate Edge. Both are good products, IE especially. CBAF is also good, and the $77/month is justified if you’d get selected as JV in your second or third month

MyViralSpiral has been around for quite a while now. I didn’t jump on it then, and I won’t jump on it now that it’s a subscription service.

Jonas: Thanks And I’m glad you liked The Last Craigslist Secret

I know there are lots of products out there,
but here are a few I am interested in now:
