What's your opinion about InstantBuzz from Mike Filsaime ?... Have you tried it ? It's worthing or it's just a waste of time ?
My personal experience is that it was a waste of time. While in theory the concept may seem nice, it seems to only work if you have a giant downline so you can leverage the credit earning. Even if you're on the interent as much as I am I probably got less than 20 clicks period. Also the software itself is kind of fishy. I tried to run Regedit from my comp, and instantbuzz prevented me from using my run program in my start menu. So I uninstalled it, and doing so didn't seem to easy. Point is I think I have better ways of using my bandwidth instead of instant buzz. Has it worked for some? Probably, but I never got anything out of it. Not worth spending my money on, that's for sure.
I don't know about MLM...not like there's any residual income involved (at least I don't think, I'm not entirely sure). And even then MLM's aren't a waste of time if they're the right kind and you know what you're doing...that's just my own personal experience. I'm sure there's people here who have had made big money from InstantBuzz...
I agree with ezmoney. I've tried alot of stuff online and this to me was a hassle. Nothing seemed to work right. Just my 2 cents JR
It wouldnt be like mlm because theres no charge correct? I;ve heard of instant buzz before, but never tried it.
I agree about it being a waste of time. (I blogged about it a while ago too - http://internetmarketingsucks.com/blog/2006/05/19/instantbuzz/)
I have already made one post about this program elsewhere on DP. I'll try to summarize it. They have terrible customer service. Their software is very, very, very buggy. It will not work with Vista. Works intermittently with XP. It can cause repeated browser crashes and/or computer lockups. Doesn't play well with AntiVirus/AntiSpywae programs. The forum is a complete joke and more or less just a platform for their senior moderator to advertise his products. It is overpriced. Avoid anything by Mike Filsaime, because I have used more than one of his products and have not been pleased. He is good with ideas and coming up with great services, but lacks the ability to follow through with the projects and create good infrastructure to support those products, so in the end they are not all they are cracked up to be. Do not believe what the singer says about getting a 6% CTR. I paid for ads and still only got less than .1 % CTR. I think more or less sums up the IB Toolbar.
It works very well for me...that's because I have referred over 15,000 new members to Instant Buzz...as a result I get my ads displayed over 200,000 times every day on their toolbar. If you manage to get clicks on your ads it's very high quality targeted traffic
That side of it is the good part. It was the service that was terrible. Vista is fairly common now so they should have toolbar that works with Vista. I have purchased bar ads and they do very well. 15,000 members? 200,000 a day? Are you a diamond with 25 campaigns you can run? How did you get 15,000 members referred? An eBook? A list? Want to trade accounts?
The toolbar traffic is a total waste of time and energy IMHO. I did not use InstantBuzz, I used FreeTrafficBar instead. Yes, I get a sale or two here and there, but nothing to live off.
