My Clickbank Business & Why you should NOT buy it.

My Clickbank Business? Not so long ago, just like all other advanced marketers out there, I received a joint venture invitation from Andrew X and Steven Lee Jones about their new upcoming product called “My Clickbank Business”.
Andrew X and Steven Lee Jones are the same people who have created other products like Niche Socializer, Google Ambush and Google Massacre…
When a product seems to be alright to recommend to people, I would not mind promoting it on my blogs since it could help my readership and, while at it, make some commissions too. That is what internet marketing is about, right?
However, the product I promote should have quality in all regards.
Looking back at what Steven and Andrew have launched before this myclickbankbusiness product is what made me think twice before promoting them again.
First of all, I received some very disturbing comments on a post I did about Niche Socializer.
Read more about REAL Consumer reports about Niche Socializer here and here and, prepare to be shocked.
Then, I had a look at all of the sales I personally made while promoting their previous products…
ALL people had refunded. ALL of them. What does that say? Right, something is fishy..
So, after all that, I decided to send them an email requesting to review My Clickbankbusiness prior to promoting it this time around.
The mail I send:
Hi guys,
yes, i do have a question.
would you have me review the whole program before i promote it? i have received many, many bad feedback from for instance niche socializer… bad product, worse customer service etc. etc. not to be a prick… but, for me to promote this i would like to know more about what i am promoting this time.
thanks,walt
Nothing wrong with that, right? And, I got an answer too:
Hi Walt,
Thanks for the email.
Just so I know, when you say “many bad feedback” what do you mean?
You had 2 customers yourself… so Im just wondering who complained to you about Niche Socializer. Just both of those?
It’s just we’ve had JV partners with many many more customers and did not hear any complaints.
We had full time support teams working, and still do. We reply to tickets within 24 hours. We offer dedicated technical support free of charge too.
And to be honest, I would not trust any one that said NS is a bad product. The person that said that must have missed the 30 hours of videos in the members area and not have bothered using their 3 licenses.
But yes, I realize, irrespective of the product, you can never please everyone… especially the tyre kickers in this niche
We do try our best though.
I will see what I can do about the review copy for you.
Cheers,
Andrew
Thanks Andrew for trying to make someone feel as small as a pea. But, besides that, since that does not bother me, I was wondering why it was I did not get a review copy to actually review it prior to promoting it.
I send this mail back:
Hi,
besides the ‘two’ customers.. I run a few blogs…
There was a discussion going on about it.
I am well aware of the kickers.
But also recognize real complaints.
I have done promotions before from you, resulting in more than just two… and, all of them…. refunded.
It is ok if you do not want to give me a review copy.
Never mind.
Thanks,
Walter
On which I got an answer yet again:
Hi Walter,
Sorry, I was curious and always appreciate feedback, good or bad. So thanks!
I will tell you why I’m a little surprised.
Our refund rate was the lowest I have ever heard of for a high ticket launch in the IM niche.
It seriously was very low, and comparable to the refund rate of some of the top $77 IM products on Clickbank. Well, if all your buyers refund, including those that bought our previous products too, it may not be best for your time to promote. Again, just being honest and looking out for your time. I really really encourage you to sign up for a membership to ww.GoogleAmbush.com and take a look at the quality of stuff we release. This was our previous product to NS. You can get a 7 day trial for $5 and then request a cancelation/refund to CB before those days are over. Also, www.GoogleMassacre.com is a phenomenal product, and is a PPC thesis. Again, this product came before Google Ambush.
Let me know what you think if you do take a look.
Best wishes,
Andrew
Funny… Since first of all, these where the products I noticed that ALL my customers had returned and refunded. A few emails later to those customers I learned that it was due to bad customer service and an ocean full of other reasons as to why they refunded…
And, funny since I was a JV partner on those products and actually received access to those products from the creators themselves…
I send Andrew this mail, and it was the last that was mentioned about it. I did not receive any more mails from them…
Hi Andrew,
That is so kind of you.
Where it not that I AM a member on ambush and that I have gotten Massacre from you centuries before now. (I got these being a JV partner) I guess, being a JV partner means nothing more nowadays than being a simple affiliate number, ey? I must have just gotten unlucky with your launches that I referred only the refunding peeps to buy. Anyways, as said… never mind.
Walt
What does this all have to do with not buying My Clickbank Business?
If you are really interested in all of that, I advise you to visit the Warrior Internet Marketing Forum and read first hand from users what they think about My Clickbank Business.
A little searching on this forum will teach you that Niche Socializer DID indeed have high refund rates, and that it was in fact pirated, or stolen rather, from php.fox.
Allow me to quote a few comments about My Clickbank Business and, about the way business is done…
Re: MyClickbankBusiness.com
* – You’re going to get the same landing pages, sales copy, content, auto responder series, free report, etc as hundreds of other affiliates. Google will most likely hate these websites when they hit the web. Do you really want to compete with hundreds of other affiliates who have the SAME websites?
* – I’ve bought it and so far I can’t get hold of any support. I think they need a forum. Current all I have is an email address and a message saying they’ll get back in 24hrs.
* – i to had bought myclickbankbusiness and i have sent them two email and its now 48hours but no reply. i too have no other contact of them.
* – Unfortunately, I simply wanted to accelerate my CPA marketing efforts and did actually spend the $497 at myclickbankbusiness.com based on the recommendation of some “super” affiliates. As mentioned by someone else too, I got to the point of the MCB team actually loading two sites for me on dedicated servers, but failed to provide me with FTP access to those servers. The two sites are both live and useless at the moment. It has now been 2 days since any e-mail reply or support activity from MCB. Either they failed miserably at launch, or they took the money and ran. Either way, it’s an example of what NOT to do in a launch. Also note that the UK-based payment processing converts $497 to pounds or euros resulting in a USD$512 charge. Nice.
* – I have heard NOTHING…. Nothing has been configured on my server… I have written three very polite emails to their support department and have had no answer at all…
And, this is just a cut out of the big pie.
If you want some good feedback on the My Clickbank Business I advise you read this.
It is funny to see that the post starts with:
Hi folks,
Just got email from MyClickBankBusiness.com
Be alerted – the same folks behind NicheSocializer.
Seriously, do not buy My Clickbank Business.
Oh, and then you wonder as to why other gurus and internet marketers DO promote it? They simply do not give a flying hoot. They see and smell money. They get invited in the JV promotion, receive the promo emails, hit send to their lists and generate thousands of dollars in commissions within days…
In this internet marketing game, there are two teams. The team of the gurus, and the team of the customers. Frankly, most of you are in the team of the customers. You guys pay, while the other team, the gurus, make money together over your backs. Team 1 wins ALWAYS, team 2 PAYS always.
Pretty sick.
PS: If you wanted to really learn how to become a successful internet marketer, I suggest you check out the Howies Apprentice 4 Program, or await the launch of Commission Bueprint 2.0 which both have PROVEN to be great value. And, I mean in fantastic results from real users of the above two programs.
Here, Google Ambush for a Discount Offer

Here is an exclusive Google Ambush Discount!
When Andrew X and Steven Lee Jones released Google Ambush, they were a little nervous. Not because they feared it wouldn’t work. Their own experience with their techniques proved it would, like a charm.
This is what Andrew X and Steven Lee Jones are saying about Google Ambush:
Our real fear was that people simply wouldn’t believe the staggering results. We worried that they’d think it was some kind of hype. More than 5000 people did believe, in fact, and they’re reaping the rewards right now.
And we’re about to make it even easier for you to do that if you’re not on board yet. Here’s how…
>> Click here to Visit Google Ambush and get your discount!
We released the program with a monthly price tag we were sure would be attractive to just about everybody. It pretty much was.
There’s a specific reason for that.
The people on board already know exactly how much time, effort and cash they’re saving with Google Ambush. It’s easy math to do. Think about your last Google ad campaign. How much did you spend?
That’s not just the money, remember.
You spent time to set everything up, including your website landing page, writing your ads, optimizing your keywords, refining your pre-sell pitch, and so on. All the while, you were pouring money into your clicks. If you got lucky, it paid off right away and you could ramp up your spending on something that was already working. Most people can only dream of that result. Most folks dump piles of money and have nothing to
show for it.
In fact, research and observation has shown that it takes well over 400 hours to create a truly optimized Google ad campaign…not to mention the cost of your clicks on the way to optimization.
That’s why Google Ambush has sold like mad. It pretty much scrubs those costs and lets you fast-forward to a fully optimized campaign in minutes.
Yes, we mean just a few minutes. Here’s how it works…
>> Click here to Visit Google Ambush and get your discount!
First, Google Ambush finds profitable niches for you. We mean the ones where people spend money in a stampede. Ambush finds the hot products and hot niches and points you right to them.
Second, Google Ambush reverse engineers the Google ads that are currently working for your competitors…so you can swipe them. You don’t have to sweat to find the “right” keywords. Ambush does it
for you.
Third, Google Ambush finds the specific ads that are converting the best. That’s like having your own spy inside Google watching how their algorithm works. You’ll be able to find the winners and copy them so you can cut right to the profits.
Fourth, Google Ambush will create literally hundreds of keyword optimized landing pages for you with a single click. That one feature will reduce your work time (and expense) by hundreds of hours.
This is literally as easy as logging into your account and pressing a few buttons, Walt. Creating a campaign and seeing profits the same day is one hundred percent doable. This isn’t just using Google well…it’s DOMINATING Google. It’s like being able to sneak up on Google and mug those guys for profits. Now you know where the name came from!
You can see the proof of everything we’ve said right here:
>> Click here to Visit Google Ambush and get your discount!
The only catch is that we won’t keep the doors open forever. There are only a relatively few spots left now, so you need to make a decision. Do you want to struggle to profit from Google ads, or do you want
to skip the pain and start living the life you’ve dreamed about?
It’s within your reach. You just have to DO it. And we’ll make it easier for you.
The launch price was $77 per month. We’re cutting that to $67 per month to close this thing out. Want in? Then go here before it’s too late:

Here’s to ambushing Google,

Update on Niche Socializer. I have done some readin` and have found out what other users from Niche Socializer ran in to while using it. You can read all of that here. Should you be a customer you might not like what you are about to read.

Niche Socializer is quite an interesting concept you know? For once we are not being presented with software to automate Adwords coming from Steven Lee Jones and Andrew X which was in my opinion one of the biggest flops you could ever think of. I am talking about Google Ambush here. The latest ‘super duper all in one go click here and get rich Adwords automation software’… All the hype. And, for what? Literally all people who bought their software using my link had refunded pretty soon after they bought it.
I send most of them an email asking why it was they refunded. It was not so that most of them thought the software was ‘bad’ or not functioning, they just did not want to spend money on Adwords or, they were not ready to work with sophisticated software as they thought Google Ambush to be.
Because, have they come up with something clever or what?
We know about niche marketing. And, we know about social networking. Both are smashing hits and reflect a multi billion commercial market world wide.
What if you could combine the two?
And, what if you could be on top of this all? Being the one cashing in on for instance member ship fees, advertising income, commission made on affiliate sales and so on?
Niche Socializer could be F***NG Brilliant!
Ok, I’ll be honest with you here: I have not seen anything yet. I have no clue what the software does other than what they told me it does. So, I can’t say it works. But, purely looking at the concept of things …
The concept is brilliant and should it kick off be worth millions once in the right hands. Your hands? Who knows… You need to go and check that out RIGHT NOW!
>> Click here to visit Niche Socializer <<
But, really: Here is something that combines the best in internet marketing! Bring every possible income way to a central point and manage it from your home. You will be laughing all the way to the bank while your members pay for your advertising income, membership fees and bring in more and more members who will do the same. Just like the big players out there. Even if you would get just a small piece of this multi billion dollar market, you be smiling!

One of the beta testers was able to sell his site he made with Niche socializer for more than $5,000.00 only a few weeks after making it.
Social networking sites are hot. Niche Marketing is hot. The combination of the two is glowing hot.
As more comes available I will post about this new software from Steven Lee Jones and Andrew X which is called Niche Socializer.
Niche Socializer goes into pre-launch on Tuesday March 31 before being released to the public for the very first time at precisely…
12pm EST Tuesday April 7!
Niche Socializer is a software platform, that combines the very best elements of the big four:
- social marketing
- niche marketing
- viral marketing
- affiliate marketing
They have ALL of those elements within Niche Socializer, and you are going to love generating an income as you build your own social communities in whatever niche market you choose to attack.

Getting started with PPC & Adwords

PPC and Adwords are not an easy game to play in. So, there you have it. Anybody who told you that Adwords is easy should be prosecuted. Seriously.

In Adwords Targeting is essential
Without a doubt, Pay-Per-Click advertising (or PPC) is the quickest and most effective way of driving traffic to your website. It may therefore surprise you just how many people get it completely wrong, and how much of their advertising budget they waste as a result. The reason that this happens is a stunningly simple one. Targeting, or more accurately a total lack of it, is the number one reason why people fail when using PPC advertising.
Especially when using AdWords, that can be a very expensive mistake. Using PPC (whether it is AdWords or one of the less expensive alternatives), you pay every time someone clicks on your ad. If therefore, the people who click are not at least interested in the product or service that your site promotes, then you have wasted money.
Looked at the other way around, when you draw visitors to your site, you must have at least some chance of making money from them or you have no chance of being a success in your online business.
The first step towards mounting a successful PPC campaign therefore lies with targeting, and the secret of targeting is doing keyword research correctly and thoroughly. Using keywords is what drives traffic to any website, and so it follows that if you are using the wrong keywords, then the traffic that you drive to your site will not be focused or targeted, causing you to lose money.
Therefore, good keyword research is vital for any kind of internet marketing activity.
