I recently created referrer spam software that I am selling on Clickbank. I'm giving 60% commission to affiliates. I'm not good at ppc so I used the software to promote itself. I had it run for a full day and it resulted in 3 $67 sales over a three day period. If anybody wants to be an affiliate and use this method please do I need all the affiliates I can get. Does anyone know a couple good ways to get affiliates for this type of product? The sales page is http://prmassacre.com the affiliate page is http://prmassacre.com/affiliates.html Thanks.
Hm... interesting concept. It seems a little sketchy but at the same time ... I don't see how any real issue with it. I'd be curious to see if anyone has a reason not to use something like this? Could it result in Google penalties?
the only harm i can see from it is if you ping the same URL 10,000s of times you are asking someone to give your hosting company a call. if this tool had the power to dish out google penalties, then you could use it on your competition to get them banned, but it doesn't.
I've seen this sort of spam showing in my referer logs on a few sites. It confused the heck out of me at first, but then I realised they were mostly webmaster offers that were being spammed at me I don't see what people can do about this either.. except making sure their stats aren't indexed. Then I suppose there's be less incentive to do it because you won't get any links. Do you have examples of sites which you've successfully used this tactic on?
How does this convert? I only ask because referrer spamming is fairly BH and there are tons of free and warez referrer spammers on almost all BH forums.
ive only promoted it by letting it promote itself. the three sales i got from referrer spamming were from 340 hits, i assume more targeted ppc traffic would convert better. BH forums tend to share everything for free, not just ref spam products.
Interesting idea, but not sure that I want to spend 70 bucks to test it out. Are you interested in giving affiliates your software to assist in the sales of your software?
I agree with this, I am all for buying software to test it out but this one seems a bit too sketchy for me to put $70. I usually try to thread the white hat/black hat line and this would seem to be crossing it.
I never really thought about it either till recently when I started reading this website, but with the amount of articles people "Create" to promo their products, it makes it rather hard to find a legit review for something like this as well.
