DJK Google Assassin Review Part 2

DJK_Google_Assassin.gif

Purchase the Product
Sunday night I went to buy DJK Google Assassin. Before I could purchase the product, a [tag]virtual live chat[/tag] assistant came online to give me a [tag]sales pitch[/tag]. This autobot was so far from real, it was actually funny the response it would give. It is a great sales idea, but poorly implemented.

I purchased the product with ease. After purchase, I was prompted for a once in a lifetime up sell for an extra $47. I declined.

Getting the Product
Next, I was taken to a page where I set up an account on [tag]affiliates den.com[/tag] and download a free PDF. The AffiliatesDen.com website seems to be the hub of the program. This is where you will find all the tools and tutorials to get started, or so I thought, I will explain shortly.

I then reach a page with three options. Option one, Login to Affiliates Den, two, login to affiliate blueprints coaching, and finally, download tools.

I downloaded the tools, then logged into both affiliates den and the [tag]coaching program.[/tag]

I am a bit lost by now. There is no quick start guide or welcome guide.

Review so Far
So, lets review the customer path. I first read a very slick sales page and decide I want to try this program. I slap down my hard-earned cash and get access to a bunch of tools, resources, etc, but I really don’t know what to do next. There is no clear guide. So, I think I will run through the coaching programs first and then see what is going on over at affiliatesDen.com

I will keep you posted.

Tomorrow
I will start reading the FAQ, watching videos and using the coaching program.

Review of Day Job Killer Google Assassin software

We will purchase the software package and test out the claims made on the very slick long copy sales page. You can find it here.

The program author, [tag]Chris[/tag], says his Google Assassin Software will show you exactly what top [tag]affiliates[/tag] are doing with their [tag]PPC campaigns[/tag], which allows you to “borrow” their success and turn a profit with little to no investment into testing. Some will call this stealing, but there is nothing illegal about what the program promotes. You may have moral reasons not to try this software but again nothing to my knowledge is illegal.

I have previously bought Chris’s “[tag]Affiliates Project X[/tag]” ebook. I have to admit I did little to nothing with the knowledge gained. Shame on me…

DJK Assassin is the automated version of “Affiliates Project X.” I will purchase this program today and will report in the following weeks my progress.

Blog Rush 2 Worth The Hype?

Yes, but don’t take my word for it. So what’s new? Here is a run down of the new features of [tag]Blog Rush 2.0[/tag].

The dashboard

There is a slick new dashboard available in blog Rush. [tag]John Reese[/tag] has added some very nice features to the admin section. I love the new graphics representing traffic in your network.

The Buzz meter is very cool. This will help me improve my blog titles (headlines) and my [tag]CTR[/tag]. Basically it will tell me real time what people want to read, based on my title.

Reports

You can run custom reports based on a date range. Very nice!

My Blog

This section allows you to add, delete and modify your blogs. I updated my [tag]widget[/tag] “flavor” today.

Filters

The new filtering system gives you more control of what type of content shows up on your site and also controls what you want to syndicate out to the network.

These are all very good features. John has an extensive video on all the new features. Check it out for more information.

The Google PR Update Is Over

The Google Punishment has been handed out
Some people got slammed, while others stood still. Many of the top [tag]bloggers[/tag] had their [tag]PR[/tag] devalued 2,3, and 4 points!!!! The consensus is due to selling [tag]text links[/tag]! [tag]Google[/tag] gave the punishment in the form of a hand edit.

Some went from PR 6

To PR 4

What does the blogging community think?
Many blog headlines proclaimed, “PR is dead!” Others shrugged off the PR adjustment and told us to focus on the [tag]traffic volume[/tag]. In other words do not worry about PR, worry about how much traffic is going to your site. Did this update effect the amount of traffic Google is sending? If not, don’t worry about it.

What’s my take?
It was known months ago Google would take action against sites selling links. Therefore, I guess this should not come as a surprise to the offending sites. I have stated for years that PR means nothing in relation to rankings in the [tag]SERPs[/tag].

I have repeated, like a broken record, people should not worry about PR and PR updates and focus on creating [tag]quality content[/tag] and getting more links.

The Broken Record
Once again, stop thinking so much about PR values!! It ‘s just a time waster and will not help you move your business forward, period!

Moving forward.
I cannot stress enough how important it is to have a diverse traffic sources for your site. If your business is dependent on traffic from any of the major [tag]search engines[/tag], exclusively, you really need to rethink your business model. You are at risk!

Just like investing, you need to diversify your traffic sources. So when Google updates their algo and you traffic disappears over night, you are not out of business. It’s like having a six legged table. If you kick out one leg the table will still stand because there are 5 more pillars to hold it upright.

Time to focus and grow your Business
Focus on building pillars and not the antiquated [tag]Google Page Rank[/tag].
