So…

How d’ya like the new look? (Comment moderation is currently off. I’ll buzz the spam soon enough.)

  • Tinu,

    I really like the new look. It's very clean and easy to the eye - especially when you read with tired eyes and well past midnight ;-)

    When you've got a bit of time you may wish to translate to English the "Comments" link on the lower right corner of the main page. So far it's in Russian, but not so many know it well enough ;-)

  • Buddy,

    I've been in the Internet advertising business since 2000 and I have many satisfied customers who buy from me on a regular basis (Tinu being one and Graham Hamer another).

    I can understand you being disappointed that the advertising you bought from me did not produce, but to call my service a scam is hitting below the belt. It's also untrue. I don't recall you ever emailing me or requesting a refund, which you could have done.

    I've found that you'll get alot farther in this business by doing a little introspection when your website doesn't produce the results you hoped for instead of blaming everyone else.

    Best of luck in your future Internet endeavors.

  • Hello:

    If you're thinking of buying any type of traffic from any company, save your money because it doesn't work.

    I bought Jim Calkin's traffic service (traffic wholesaler) in 2005 because he claimed that his traffic come from expired domain.

    The traffic was a dud, generated by computer (script), just like the other scam companies.

    So stop making these scam traffic delivery companies rich.

    All of them are fake because they are generated using a script. These traffic are not real human beings.

    That is why they can send a million traffic to your website and you'll not get even one inquiry not to mention a sale.

  • Tinu, that's (UTW) one of the best plugins I've ever used. Christine did an excellent job at developing it. I like how she put in the hooks to Yahoo Web Services to get contextual related tags. Thanks for mentioning it!
  • Tinu, are you using a plugin for the tags in your footer?
  • Thanks very much for the detailed reply Tinu :) I'd have to say I have the same concerns regarding MoreThanTraffic. I would normally have written it off as a fake immediately if the website weren't so thorough and professional-looking.

    Off the top of your head do you know the URL for Jim Calkin's Traffic Wholesalers? I wasn't able to find it on Google. I'll look around for some Small Business ezines and check the advertising costs. Thanks for the tips!

    I'm also sorely tempted to buy your blog traffic ebook, but I realize that I need to put the brakes on purchasing material and focus on 'doing' :)
  • Hello Tinu,

    Looks good! You can aslo put ads into the header too.
    I think they will have a good visability in the header, or may be put an interesting image. Of course the look and feel is not so important. The content is king :-) Thanks for the good tips!
  • Hello Tinu,

    First off, thanks for the excellent blog - it's exactly what I've been looking for :) Starting out and trying to get past that initial 'barren website' stage often seems like an uphill struggle. Although another tricky aspect is knowing when to stick to one strategy and not get caught up trying a hundred different things..

    I've learned now that anything that sounds too good to be true regarding web traffic usually is, but the other day I came across this company called MoreThanTraffic.com. Have you heard of it? It promises to send you loads of traffic, plus guaranteeing you $100,000 in *net profit*. And they offer a 'pay on results' plan.

    Now that certainly sends some alarm bells ringing.. I did sign up, but I stopped short of paying the 'side setup fee' of $169. I wrote about it at the Small Business Solutions Blog at http://www.milliondollarb2b.com. I'd like to know what you think about it? If it's a fraud somebody spent a *lot* of time on it...

    Sincerely,

    Andy
