You appear to me that you are relying too much on organic traffic and not putting the same effort into other forms of traffic such as articles and possibly even social networks. The amount of searches is only a part of it, you need a high CTR template and medium paying keywords to make sure your traffic converts to a good sum of money. Give it 3 months, and if you are still having problems, contact me and I will tell you what to do, because there is no reason to fail with these sites.

Well I just gave a positive review at first because he gave me a positive itrader. But here is my honest breakdown of his service.

I ordered the $497 package thinking i was going to get 3 nice looking sites with keyword with huge traffic. So i received them today and i was a bit disappointed, i should have read the thread more carefully.

KEYWORDS

Kw1: 8100 searches
Kw2: 9900 searches
Kw3: 22,200 searches.

This is on BROAD and Global Monthly Searches.

On Local Monthly Searches they get

Kw1:3600
Kw2:4400
Kw3: 12,100

Still not bad but.

What is broad match? From adwords.google.com

I. Description

With broad match, the Google AdWords system automatically runs your ads on relevant variations of your keywords, even if these terms aren't in your keyword lists. Keyword variations can include synonyms, singular/plural forms, relevant variants of your keywords, and phrases containing your keywords.

For example, if you're currently running ads on the broad-matched keyword web hosting, your ads may show for the search queries web hosting company or webhost.

----

Generally this is why i go for exact searches as most people do when doing keyword research it seems a lot more accurate.

On exact match:
Kw1: 260/73
kw2: 260/58
k3: 720/39

Global vs Local.

**BUT He does deliver exactly what he said which is global monthly searches just future buyers keep in mind your getting broad not exact search count**



I tried to get a refund after i saw the template and keywords and here's how the conversation went.I tried to get a refund because i didn't feel like this was worth anywhere near $500.The first conversation was before the sites were done and the second today after they were done.

cashdonkeyjon: hey is there any way i can get a refund
cashdonkeyjon: i really need the money and i can't afford new projects right now email is [email protected] ill make a paypal dispute in a few days thanks
Macdonjo: Your sites are almost finished. I have already sent your money off to my freelancers. If you didn't know, Paypal does not refund digital products. (really paypal doesn't refund digital products? What about clickbank)

cashdonkeyjon: well i saw one of ur customers sites
cashdonkeyjon: i don't know if it's the same as mine but
cashdonkeyjon: im willing to get a refund minus the articles
Macdonjo: What are you talking about?
cashdonkeyjon: i msged some people to see what type of sites that u built
cashdonkeyjon: and one of them looked REALLY plain template
Macdonjo: High CTR bud, you don't understand Adsense, do you?
cashdonkeyjon: so for $500 i was expecting a lot more
cashdonkeyjon: i do understand adsense
cashdonkeyjon: or i wouldn't have bought the sites in the first place
Macdonjo: You clearly don't understnad how CTR works.
cashdonkeyjon: i don't see what else u could have payed for
cashdonkeyjon: i can find those type of keywords in like 2 minutes
Macdonjo: Me too, whats your point?
cashdonkeyjon: the point is what in the world di i pay $500 for?
Macdonjo: I gave you what I said I would in the thread.
Macdonjo: My time.
cashdonkeyjon: $500 for 2 minute keyword research
cashdonkeyjon: 5 minutes to find article writers
cashdonkeyjon: and i honestly don't think it takes 2 weeks to build that type of site that looks that simple
Macdonjo: No, I spent hours of answering your dumb questions.

"my questions being when are my sites done?"
I also asked politely how he determines the competition on the sites:


cashdonkeyjon: although im not 100% sure aobut competition
cashdonkeyjon: do u just determine it by the number of searches?
Macdonjo: Just find an article on Ezine, copy it, send it to an article marketer on fiverr, pay him $5, he will spin it and submit to over 500 directories...
Macdonjo: to find the comp, i search it on Google
cashdonkeyjon: what factors do u factor in
Macdonjo: and I look through to see who is where
Macdonjo: This is not a keyword research coarse.

The rebuddle:
Macdonjo: I want to hear about your earnings in 3 months.
Macdonjo: Get these sites ranked, get a few outsourcers on bhw. and then report back, then we can discuss..

**So per that argument i can't say anything but rank them and then give another review but in my eyes it was not the customer service i was expecting. I also never got a list of the keywords for my site before he built them so I had no say and was strapped to whatever he gave me..**

Theme

I checked with one other person. He uses the exact same theme.

Well i SUPPOSE this might yield high ctr. But for $500 really? And Using the same theme for all your customers that's pretty bad.

The Articles:
They look like $1-2 articles at the most grammar wise.


Quotes from a few other anonymous

Hello.
Haven ranked them yet. went with the seo service reccomended and offered in the thread. but havent seen to many backlinks yet. so ranking is still low i think,but they should be up there when all the backlinks are indexed.
the site itself was very basic and "dull" but if it works im happy. so far i have gotten 1click on an ad so not rich yet.

not sure exactly how many but I have made about almost $10 from the site so its not too shabby considering. I think once I get a higher ranking it will make more but we will see

you know. i didnt read the thread well!
Im really regretful to bought that website.

sitelinkhere

My main keyword is "keyword" its so fukun funny! 1600 Monthly searches and Medium competetion!

4 clicks as in 4 unique visitors, lol. I am ranking 8th or 9th for keyword 1 3600 searches.

Macdonjo You delivered what you said. I'm just giving my honest review on how i feel.For $500 i get a preset theme. 40 articles which cant' cost more then $80 at that quality. Your 2 minute keyword research. Oh yea and my "hours of bothering you with questions" And with no refund i guses i have to try and rank these sites and attempt to flip them to cover that $500

 

[macdonjo3]

If you wanted something other that what I said, you should have told me. If you wanted a certain amount of exact or local searches, then you need to say this. Several of my previous customers have asked for custom sites, and that's what I gave them. You did not tell me you wanted something else. I gave you exactly what I said I would. You seem to rely too much on organic traffic.

Are you saying, you only have the ability to rank just for the exact term?

 

[Joseph04]

I dont understand why you sell this sites
if you charge 80$ for micro site that make 100$ a month
you could save it to youself no?
what is the point to sell them if they actually make money?

and this template look like Joe (xfactore) style template
all the web are full with this template for adsense

actually the xfactor themes look way better.

and relying too much on organic traffic? if i wanted to buy paid traffic i wouldn't do adsense.
If i wanted to do social bookmarking and articles as main source of traffic then why bother with search count I might as well go for kws that have 0 kws with no competition and just article market them.

 

[profitter]

Can u provide some sample sites

I already have enough and several sources of long term income, this is another way I can get some cash at hand. However, the template is that way because it converts.

I try to mix it up and keep customers who do all forms of traffic happy. If you wanted a certain search criteria, then you should have said so. You paid for the coupe but wanted the convertable.

Can u provide some sample sites

Samples sent via PM.

NEW AND IMPROVED SERVICE
I have decided to make all search counts to exact.
We are also including a free Scrapebox Autoapprove list with all orders over $150. I have scraped this list myself and tested it. I was going to sell this list for $60 in a new BST thread but I thought it would be better to give it free to my customers. This is for limited time only. I have not set an ending date yet, so it could be over Christmas, or maybe New Years, or maybe the first 5 orders or something. I reserve the right to end the sale at any time.

Thanks & Have a nice day! :You_Rock_

I would have to agree with this assessment, the demo sites look pretty weak. I was considering ordering a package, but after reviewing the price compared to the quality, I will not be ordering. And thanks for the heads up that all the templates are the same.

Do you realize this template is high converting? It seems all you guys want is something that distracts them so they don't click.

 

[Deleted member 36594]

Common' guys, I realized some of you are asking for better designs and such.

Please remember this:
You are making an adsense site to EARN, not for a beauty contest.

 

[shaks99]

Hey guys I got the same theme lol as well . I wasnt too pleased when i saw the site which was delivered to me like 3-4 weeks later but $87 i wasnt going to start moaning abt it, I prolly thought id get something better looking and if its a high converting theme then who cares lol

But hey everyone has ups and downs in business i know but as re earnings i will keep you all updated as i plan now to do some serious seo work to my site and see the results .

Bur dont get held up on the theme the idea is abt monetization and everyone should focus on that

 

[macdonjo3]

But don't get held up on the theme the idea is about monetization and everyone should focus on that.

The theme I chose will certainly help your monetization.

On the other hand, I will start mixing up the colors that I use for themes.

Have a nice day.

 

[macdonjo3]

I checked with one other person. He uses the exact same theme.

I had said previously I am going to change up the color schemes. Your order was $500 only because you ordered 3 sites and they were containing 40 articles.

 

[tomksoft]

Ordered a mini niche site. So far communication is good and I can't wait to get the site.
I know how it looks, but as someone said - it's not a beauty contest

 

[macdonjo3]

Glad you hear that you understand the concept that these sites are here to make money and a basic template brings high CTR.

So far the autoapprove Scrapebox list has been given away only a couple of times. This is going to turn out great for some of the customers. Some autoapprove PR 4 & PR5 backlinks that are completely private to my customers.

 

[nicknick]

How do the people ordering not understand the the site has these specific 'crappy' templates for a reason. It is to increase CTR, you don't want the visitors glazing over your AMAZING graphics without even glancing on the adds. I own a bundle of these sites which i created myself and they make awesome amounts of money monthly. If you want a professional looking site which will probably make you pennies with adsense then get a website designer, if you want to make decent ROI with a micro niche site, then order here or make them yourself and don't complain.

 

[macdonjo3]

Thanks for helping explain how things work to my customers. I appreciate it.

Notice:

I have lowered the price of the websites, please check our official website for recent prices!
