I had a lengthy phone conversation with the OP about the service and got some insight into how the system works. It looks to be a good tool to really get a good foundation derived from your competitors. The system sounds very robust, and given its broad breadth, it has the potential to give site's a nice boost above any single competitor (because it gathers info from a large amount of your competitors).
I have not yet tried the system out, but I will be doing so in a few days. Then I'll be able to give back some more concrete info on the system itself.
@myhatturnedblack - Hey mate . . I am not going to post mine or any client sites here on the thread . . . if a client wants to they are more than welcome.
@Viral - What kind of sucess rate are you talking about . . stick rate . . . SE link index rate . . . SERP ranking sucess?
@sk1ll - Great call with this BHW member. . .Look forward to working with you.
@marieke - it can be used for non english sites . . . no there is no limit to the total URL's you can enter in . . . no limit on keywords.
@mystery - The one area we hit on the sheer magnitude of the system that I don't belive has been previously posted.
Here is some math below to illustrate.
Lets assume 100 customer with 10 keywords each. (however some have hundreds, but for sake of math).
100 * 10 = 1,000 keyword searches.
1,000 * 100 (top google positions) = 100,000 total sites to check backlinks.
100,000 * 1,000 (yahoo backlinks) = 100,000,000 (total sites to search).
Truth is we are searvhing much much more than this alraedy each day every day.
Same here.Well i've been running this for a little bit now. I only got the 79$ package as I just wanted to try it out and see how well it would do for me. So far I haven't seen one backlink show up. The way I check is through Yahoo Site explorer. but i'm pretty sure i'm just being a little impatient right now and just have to wait for them to start to get indexed and show up etc. I know they said they were working on ways to get the links that stick indexed faster that would be awesome. I'm optimistic but on the edge at the same time regarding this.
There's my honest review. Hope the OP doesn't mind as he asked for honest reviews. but if and when the backlinks start to come through I know for a fact how awesome this program is.
Well, that day has come, and the backlinks are finally viewable in our stats area.
What have I concluded?
For one, every single backlink is from a guestbook which indicates that MonsterClicks is nothing more than a glorified Guestbook spammer (no keyword relevance BTW).
Guestbook spamming died 10 years ago, and will have very little effect in boosting your ranking in the SERPS. If anything, I suspect it will cause your website to get sandboxed/deindexed.
Moving on... After checking a few dozen of my supposed backlinks, neither my anchor text nor link was anywhere to be found.
However, now that I know where the backlinks are coming from, the fact that MosnterClicks did not deliver is probably the best thing about this service
Today is Day 10 since I signed up for the $79 monthly package. I will be canceling my subscription ASAP. I see no reason to stay on for the full month. Complete garbage.
